The Berkeley Café

Casual, yet impossibly chic, natural tones and soft curves bring café culture to The Berkeley, creating the perfect space for an informal meeting or impromptu get-together.

Every element is beautifully crafted. From the sleek surrounds, designed by French interior designer, Rémi Tessier, to the menus – as teas, tisanes and fine wines are accompanied by signature plates from dawn until dusk.

This is also the setting for a curated collection of Cedric Grolet’s patisserie, from a ‘petit déjeuner’ of delicately layered viennoiserie, to signature desserts that are individual works of edible art. And when the clock strikes afternoon tea, it’s time for Goûtea , Grolet's fusion of goûter (the long-standing French tradition of sweet snacking) and the best of British ritual.

Time for Goûtea

A showcase of pâtisserie elegance, Goûtea fuses the French tradition of sweet snacking with the best of British afternoon tea. For winter, expect in-miniature creations that celebrate the season’s finest flavours. This menu of all things bold and beautiful includes the indulgent Truffle Ham & Cheese Navette, combining whipped brown butter, tender ham, comté, earthy truffle, and a tangy hint of gherkins – as well as the luxurious Pistachio, where layers of crunchy praline, silky ganache, and vibrant pistachio gel create a nutty masterpiece.

A vibrant display of Cedric Grolet’s winter pastry collection, featuring intricate swirls, fruit-inspired designs, and rich textures arranged in a visually captivating flat lay.

Le Petit Déjeuner

For a deliciously different start to the day, stop by The Berkeley Café for Cedric Grolet's spin on breakfast. Opt for a curated selection of signatures, including petite viennoiserie, an exquisite Waffle Flower or slice of French toast, followed by fresh fruit perfection. Or go à la carte for just-baked croissants and daily specials, accompanied by a get-up-and-go juice, coffee, tea – or glass of ice-cold champagne for extra indulgence.
