I had the most perfect experience at Cord last week. The food was astonishing with so many delightful seasonal dishes - I felt I was truly eating autumn. The presentation and the explanation of each dish was flawless. The service was warm, inclusive and friendly, whilst remaining professional and non-intrusive. I will certainly be returning!Vegetarian options: The skill demonstrated with producing exquisite fine vegetarian food was beautiful. Each of the many seasonal veg is treated with respect and perfect blending of complementary and contrasting flavours and textures.

We had the best experience food and service alike were spot on! We had the pre theatre menu which was excellent value, the food was beautifully presented, interested and tasted delicious. The service was attentive, not intrusive and each dish was well explained.

Decor is stunning. It's a nice hidden gem in the city, a short walk from City Thameslink or Blackfriars station. It has both a cafe and restaurant and bar area. The service was really good and the staff were friendly and attentive. The food is good but not great - a tad pricyWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible

This is my favorite cafe in Bloomsbury! Everything is fresh, service is impeccable, prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is lively but not loud. This is the cafe of Le Cordon Bleu, the French Culinary School, with their exclusive chef who bakes everything from scratch at 5am every day! Students come here during their breaks and it is delightful to be in a room of excited chefs-in-training. The breakfast I had - avocado toast with poached eggs and smoked salmon was divine! The almond milk in my chai tea latte was perfectly steamed. I'm coming here everyday while I'm in London,

Very competent cooking although it felt as though there was just one component missing from each dish to elevate it to excellence. Would go back though. Pretty good value for this location for a tasting menu. Very friendly and helpful service.

Will definitely visit again with friends!! ?

I ordered a hot chocolate and a slice of cake. The hot chocolate was served luke warm and the cake was dry & tasted stale. The presentation of the cake was beautiful nevertheless.On the positive, the cafe does have a nice atmosphere with ample seating area - if only the food was better.

What an absolutely amazing meal at CORD. A part of Le Cordon Bleu school in London, I was treated to a wonderful meal filled with unique and memorable flavors served by a marvelously friendly staff. Sampling wines from around the world, the knowledgeable sommelier paired the drinks with the dishes in a talented and thoughtful way. I'd recommend CORD to anyone looking for a great meal at reasonable prices.

We had the Chef's Market Menu which was excellent value. The food was delicious, impeccably served by our waitress. The decor of the restaurant exuded a relaxed and calming atmosphere. It was my friend's birthday and they presented her with an exquisite small dessert with a candle. Very nice touch. Would definitely return

Truly one of the finest dining experiences in London. The attention to detail and quality of the food is impeccable. The appetizers were light and delectable and the lamb two ways literally melt in my mouth. The rosemary popovers were so fantastic we asked for more. An absolute hidden gem on Fleet Street
