Reviews of Paul Covent Garden
H. A.
Me and my friends were here last week and it was lovely to be able to order a nice simple ham baggette. It wasn't too much trouble for them and they heated it up for me and cut it in half. Service was lovely but got a little puzzled on who to pay with and when to do it. Not much communication to customers on how the service system works. Great baggette though ❤️
P. M.
Small place...
Stuff needs to be more careful...
But the coffee was awesome
B. B.
Baguette was really hard (yesterday's batch?) almond croissant was okay and coffee nice enough. Don't think I'd return though as staff a bit miserable and didn't have a nice ambiance like other Paul venues.
A. E.
Had breakfast here this morning.
Unfortunately no hot food at the moment (assuming that this is because of covid restrictions).
Was able to get a table and be served right away.
Excellent service from Nejwa who was very attentive.
S. L.
Good pastries. Good service. We had afternoon tea where you buy at counter and sit at a table of your choice. Pretty busy on a Sunday.
A. K.
The best place for early Sunday breakfast in Central London. You can experience exceptional service with delicious sandwiches, pastries and tea.
y. l.
A very comfortable place to take a rest with a cup of coffee, chatting with friends and sitting for a cake. I have been here a couple of times. Still it's a very good place to sit down for a while. The location is superb with 5 mins from tube station. The price is reasonable in the city center. The service still very good. Will come back soon
D. Y.
Waited for a bit tho but nice food and coffee!
S. C.
It's a nice place for a coffee, better than the other coffee shops around there. Relaxed atmosphere in the evening.
R. B.
Fabulous staff here, they work really hard and give their customers great service. Food and drink also great, real quality, fresh and tasty. A great example of this great set of cafes.
B. M.
4 stars only for the croissants . Service was horrendous. I get that was busy but at least be nicer to customers spending their money to your business or employ staff that have better interraction and good manners with customers.
D. R.
Very welcoming, attentive staff. Quality of food above most others. Had a coffee and a roast beef sandwich to eat in, £8.20. An expensive lunch but worth it. Recommended but probably more for taking out. We sat in and whilst there is not much they can do about it, when the front door is open there is a hell of a breeze. There is always the restaurant part but haven’t tried it. Accessibility is a problem due to the large step at the front.
C. L. N.
Glad I took a punt at this place. Reserved a table online with some friends. Great quality of food, friendly staff and good service. Macaroon frappe was thick and yummy. Food is good value for the quality you get! Will be returning.
g.
Great choice of sweets and baked pastry. Not very filled with people (the bakery os out front, the restaurant in the back, you need to wait to be seated), so you can enjoy them with coffee at peace. The savoury options for lunch and for breakfast (until 12pm) are also available.
Paying by card possible. Two coed toilets down the stairs.
In the pictures a lemon tartallete with fruit (perfect combination of sweet and sour taste). Personanlly recommend, but the strawberry one and a peach sundae was also tested and were very nice.
A. S.
Nice and cozy restaurant. This is my first visit to Paul. I really enjoyed my Hot Chocolate. The atmosphere is very nice & waiter is very polite and kind. I would definitely visit Paul again. Thanks.
C. F.
My favourite breakfast in London! No bakery beats Paul's baguettes and pastries.
A. W.
Best deli type fast food going. As good as the ones in France. Fresh and tasty. Good coffee too
P. D.
Had lunch here top notch nice friendly atmosphere highly recommend it
M. M.
Had afternoon tea here, and even booked it for my groups. Food is lovely and staffs are friendly and helpful, highly recommended!! 👍👍
D. P.
Staff was very efficient and friendly. The food is good but they had very few meat-free options, let alone vegan, and that was a big let down.
J. J. M.
Love, love love Paul. My favourite home from home patisserie and as for their eats...to die for.😍 Covent Garden all the way..
P. S.
Nice restaurant, with good food, but extremely busy, and with waiters that look exhausted, and prone to forgetting part of your order or making mistakes.
Y. A.
Went there for breakfast and it was delicious.
M. I.
Tried the afternoon tea - was 14.99 per person and loved it! Very delicious brioche and desserts! Didn’t know there was so many Paul around London until eating here as this was our first stop in London!
v. P.
It was lovely and clean service was excellent and the croissant were just yummy and the café latte was mmmm very refreshing
V. L.
The produce is always fresh and delicious. Best almond croissants I had eaten!!
S. L.
Plenty of space to sit, a little slow at clearing tables, plenty of good French pastries, sandwiches etc
H. S.
The Vanilla macaroon! What a delight ❤️ so worth every calorie. Love their sandwiches as well, light and freshly made. A great snack.
M. B.
Very busy, food was reasonably priced and tasty (although rolls are a bit chewy).
A. M.
Lovley relaxed feeling Lovley food
I would have given 5 but two toilets men or women shared both filthy and if its one thing I hate is filthy toilets
T. S.
Really great staff here. They had run out of vegetarian sandwiches but went to the trouble of fixing some just for us. I love that. And, guess what, the sandwiches was wonderful. Lovely fresh bread, good quality mozzarella, fresh salad and awesome pesto. So pleased we went there - thanks
A. F.
Special hot chocolate and blueberry tart are yummy!
Service is very good. I have been there several times and always will enjoy again.
A. Y.
Such a pretty bakery/coffee shop/café to stop by for brunch or some treats! The decor made my visit really cosy and relaxing. Waiters were polite and helpful which is rare in London! It was the perfect place to go after ice skating in the cold and the chai tea and food were delicious!
E. K.
Evening is not busy at all. Nice place and comfortable. Delicious crème brûlée. Good service and waiter.
D. S.
Very busy, nit somewhere to sit and chat, but food good.
A. W.
The best coffee in the world!
M. M.
Amazing coffee. Also have a restaurant area for this cafe. Good decor
D. D.
We had a lovely time at Paul. At the front, they sell coffees, quiches, baguettes and cakes for eat-in and/or takeaway orders. At the back, there is the Paul Cafe where we sat in what felt like a private dining area. The food was freshly made and very tasty. Next time, we'll try the afternoon tea...
K. P.
Amazing place - a must if you're in London
E. T.
Nice place in the centre of London with quick service although it was crowded. Helpful staff and clean environment. Not really spacious though and a bit pricey, however the quality of the food and drinks was good.
v. m.
Great place to grab some breakfast or a pastry with great coffee. you also have outlets so you can plug in your computer and do some work. There is free Wi-Fi.
T. (. ر.
Good food. Friendly Staff and amazing coffee ☕️
H. F.
Very good coffee, amazing interior design, nice place to feel the London atmosphere
I. H.
Great breakfast, very modest prices
A. M. K. M.
A very nice bakery. Tried the strawberry tart and mille feuille.
S. T. S.
Really enjoyed the food , fresh and delicious !
T. Q.
Nice, clean, friendly staff (apart from the barista).
D. N.
Bakery is great especially the macarons, Pistachio is my favourite!
R. M.
Lovely place to enjoy hot drinks and nice cake🍰
Z. B.
Amazing quality food. Worth a visit. Only let down was the time we waited before being offered to order...
i. g.
Great choice of cakes however the tea was disappointing, I had requested for a drop of milk as tea is not being served with milk on the side due to covid, we sat at our table for the tea to be brought to us, as our tea was placed on the table, I could tell that was not a drop of milk in my tea, it looked like more like a third of milk, I had two minds of asking for another one and complaining, being part of the food waste campaign, I knew if I did complain, the tea would have been wasted, which I didn't want, I decided to drink it instead, it tasted like milk, couldn't taste tea at all, if I wanted a glass of milk, I would have requested a glass of milk, bit disorientated about the tea, I don't think I'll be returning here again
Y. M.
What a beautiful place. I felt very safe, in these covid times, as it was run very efficiently by polite staff taking customer details on entering. There was hand sanitizer and a high standard of cleanliness all around. My order was served quickly and the cheese tart was delicious and the coffee very good. I would definately recommend eating here.
L. K.
Deliciously fresh croissant if you don't feel like having a full meal. Amazing cakes, nice atmo.
C. S.
Amazing coffee and pasties, possibly the best
R. M.
Lovely restaurant with great food and surroundings
G. H.
Great tasting cakes etc...top marks
K. K.
Lovely coffee, very nice staff & reasonable prices. well worth the visit.
E. L.
Just delicious. Especially the macaroons are lovely!
Very good breads.
A. C.
Went here for a pre theatre meal recently. The food was great but took a long time to come out so we had to skip dessert.
Their current discount (50% off mains in January) made it reasonably priced for what it was.
Great wine selection!
A. H.
Friendly and efficient staff, great food and a great location. There is also a sit down restaurant area
L. C.
We had a Lovely tasty quiche & sandwich
j. p.
Great afternoon tea at a moderate price. Dissolved all the bitterness in the dissertation paper i was reading.😄
P. T.
Very busy Paul. We were there on a Sunday and had to queue for 15min for tables at the entrance. I felt if tables has been cleared more quickly the changeover of customers would have happened more quickly. No chance for a table in the back room. Cakes and pastries are awesome.
Only 2 unisex toilets and one was not working resulting in a long queue.
R. B.
This is a lovely place to eat. The staff were friendly and efficient. The food was really good. Reasonable prices.
It was an oasis in the West End of London. The cafe was full when I visited, but the restaurant was empty, which was strange, but welcome after Christmas events in Covent Garden.
I'd go back because it was a nice atmosphere overall, quite Parisian, laid back with friendly chatty groups.
I liked it.
K. B.
How lovely to sit in a comfortable cafe/restaurant just outside the busy Covent Garden centre and hear the variety of languages around you - this being a popular venue for people from a multitude of countries seeking high quality food and drink at reasonable prices.
The staff are enthusiastic and professional and never hurry or hassle you, however long you or your party spend there enjoying the experience.
Overall costs are surprisingly low given it's location and the quality of it's food - particularly their cakes and pastries.
S. E.
Beautiful breakfast in an elegant cafe. Would highly recommend.
D. W. (. 5.
Good service, even though the uncomplaining waiter was run off his feet (looked like they were short-staffed). Very good food. But not five stars as the toilets are in need of some serious attention both for repairs and general tidying.
L. L. M. S.
Good patisserie and confortable place! Worth visiting!
Y. Z.
Very average restaurant. I had breakfast here with my parents. The dishes on the menu are very common among restaurants in Westminster. I had an egg, potato rosti & streaky bacon for £7.95. The potato rosti is charming but the streaky bacon is too oily. The bottom of my plate was covered in a shiny layer of oil. There was only one waitress so it took a long time before we were attended to. On the bright side, the fittings and the music are nice. Overall, an average experience.
P.
Friday morning breakfast, around 10am, very quiet. Prompt service, staff friendly, our wait person non native English speaker but coping well. Cooked breakfast for two, toasted baguettes, butter, jam, coffee, all good. Middle of the road prices for London. Majority four and five star ratings probably sum up the average experience fairly accurately unless you land in the middle of a busy period. Would do again.
R. P.
Lovely coffee at a reasonable price.
D. C.
A hidden gem! I'd walked past so many times, but it was only a few nights ago that I thought of going in, because I needed to eat before doing something later in the evening.
This branch stays open late, and has a full licenced restaurant at the back, and is perfect for pre-theatre etc dining.
I stayed in the front section and had a hot quiche, followed by some delicious pastries, with a bottle of water and set myself up well for the evening.
Wonderfully friendly staff too. A hidden gem that will become a regular place to visit.
N. G.
Great looking and tasting variety of pastries and sandwiches, more than I’ve seen in other bakeries from Paul. Service was also very friendly and efficient. Just wish there were more seats! Will be coming here more often :)
S. M.
Lovely cakes and coffee. Friendly helpful staff
K. W.
Great coffee, delicious looking pastries - will have to visit another time to sample them.
V. O.
A very good spot for a tea and cake or a snack in the middle of Covent Garden. It can get busy but I have never waited more than a few minutes for a table. The attentive staff, pleasant surroundings and good food that is well presented, make this an enjoyable place for refreshments.
R. F.
Service a bit slow since his a single young lady trying best to serve all customers. Meaning, not possible. The food looks good however my perception were all cook and just waiting to be served. E.g. the eggs were very dry.
L. S.
Suprisingly good chicken sandwich, did not expect savoury options to be that good at Paul!
E. T.
Comfortable and good service. Efficient staff.
N. -. I.
Good food, busy place.
M. W.
Delicious breakfast good variety prompt friendly service.
K.
The coffee is delicious but the staff were a bit rude. It was 10.30 on Monday morning so not busy and lots of empty tables I wanted to sit on a chair as I'm heavily pregnant but as I was only drinking coffee they said I had to sit at the front on high stools which is very uncomfortable at 9 month!! I will not be going back to that Paul's
A. B.
Four of us arrived to have some desserts after trip to a restaurant.Staff was very attentive and patient as we were overwhelmed with amount of cakes :-) Lady that served us overheard that it’s my mother’s in law birthday and next thing we know she brought out a complimentery slice of cake with a candle for her! We had more cakes, wine ( dessert wine is very nice) and coffee.Everything was delicious.Service was first class, when we paid we’ve been offered a doggy bag with macaroons.They’ve made our afternoon.Keep up the good work guys!
A. H.
Service on the day was extremely poor. The croissants and the coffee was served cold. There were absolutely no extras like jam or butter served with the toast, all in all not a good experience. Although the waiter did apologise and admitted they were a server short that day
T. T.
I wanted to love this place but my meal was flavorless (smoked salmon Benedict). I felt it was overpriced for a middle of the road breakfast. The Americano was good but I find that's true generally in the UK.
Atmosphere was very nice and server was charming and very French but not in the way typically attributed to French waiters. Well he wasn't on his home turf.
I. K.
We have been going here for years. Amazing food, pastries and staff.
T. C.
A great bit of France in the chaos of London. Food is amazing whether a snack to take away or sitting in the restaurant. At busy times I have found service slower than I personally like but over a quality experience.
G. B.
We usually love these café patisseries, but this branch was overly busy and tables crammed together. The Danish pastries and strawberry tart were all delicious, but the charge of £1.00 for a spoonful of cream in my coffee was excessive and spoilt the visit.
T. C.
It was ok. Quick service, tasty food, coffee not so good (latter). Very good choice of dishes to either take away or to have in. Would recommend for a quick bite
p. r.
We all know how good Paul's products are but this time around I want praise their services. I've called up yesterday morning to deliver a birthday cake. This was done at last minute and after trying different companies Paul was the only one to be able to accommodate my request. Their service was outstanding, friendly and polite. I've dealt with someone called Christian, he was super professional, and his communication was far better then what other shops in the central London area are offering. I really can praise them enough. Highly recommended!
N. R.
Lovely, friendly service and delicious food...
Great restaurant!
J. K.
Good coffee, great pastries
R. L.
The Afternoon Tea is so delicious and Not so expensive compared to other places. I payed £45 pounds including a Prosecco and a can of Tea. There was a confusion because of you Order the Afternoon Tea With Prosecco (which is more expensive) you dont get a Tea with IT, which I dont Understand because its called Afternoon TEA..? So I Had to Order an extra Tea and I ended Up spending more Money than I have Planned. But I still enjoyed the experience. Lovely Restaurant! Very busy But nice
V. D.
Lovely café with unusual cakes.
Staff friendly and gentle.
Cakes were fantastic and coffee delicious.
We will definitely use again!
Thanks for a great service!!
A. A.
Good service and tasty food
N. S.
The food is always good here, and the service and staff are good too. There is a good selection of food and drinks available on the menu, including breakfast, brunch and lunch. The coffee is good and the prices are reasonable for London.
p. v.
When you miss a good piece of cake to go with a cup of tea in a sunny afternoon, try this restaurant.
M. S.
Best place to have breakfast in London. The bread is simply amazing. One basket of bread that will be enough for 2 hungry souls for a price that I Would consider a bargain, specially considering it is central London. The staff are always very friendly and with a smile. If you are not into bread for breakfast try one of the amazing cakes or cooked options. Just the best. There is no visit to London without a visit to Paul bakery.
S. S.
Quaint restaurant with good food and very reasonable prices. Fresh made bread was super yummy... and our waitress Alex (from Romania) was so sweet and charming, she definitely made our dining experience better!
T. R.
I love Paul bakery. In my opinion they have the best TART in the world. Their FRUIT ROUGE and theit RHUBARB tarts are amazing.
I often make this my post dinner dessert spot with friends or on my own for my well deserved delicious treat.
The herb teas are delicious also.
The staff are very friendly too. Especially Alexandra, she is the friendliest and most engaging person ever. Her smile and her jokes make every visit a joy and so much fun.
Combine the charm of Alexandra with the great fruit Tarts and this place is dining heaven.
Love it.
D. S.
Paul Bakery is a french bakery and restaurant. Its a great place for both - afternoon coffee/tea treat and lunch/dinner.
This particular restaurant can be quite busy due to its central London location. The menu is diverse and food is delicious.
There are also a variety of freshly baked pastries including bread, croissants and tarts. The strawberry/blueberry tarts are amazing!
A. C.
Excellent food but we ordered 2 items on the menu and we waited 15 minutes to have a waiter saying..they forgot about us ! Once at the till, the staff didn't know what they were doing and overcharged us by adding an english breakfast on top of the rest ! It looks fancy but the unexperienced, non english speaking staff kills the experience.
J. C.
Very good french restaurant and cafe. They have fantastic tarts like rhubarb, apricot or apple. You can buy homemade breads and lots of variety of baguette with chicken or salami and other ingridiences. You can also eat delicious french dishes in the restaurant.
S. B.
My family and I were lucky enough to get a table for lunch. The food was delicious. The staff were incredibly helpful. I recommend.
O. S. U.
We took only coffee and a pastry so it was refused to us to enter the main room where people with bigger orders like cake and meals were sitting.
Beside that, coffee and pastry were delicious.
L.
It’s a nice place! Server told me they don’t accept reservations on weekends when I received an email that they accepted it. So beware of that, also sundays are very busy. Food was nice, would go again for sure but the whole thing with reservations annoyed me slightly
F. B.
Pain au raisin always good and the diet coke was as expected!
S. W.
Cosy feel. Loved this spot for a sneaky dinner and gls of wine (pleasant selection). Dining area is a bit cramped (especially if busy) but not the sort of place where people linger over several courses so tables free up regularly (so no lengthy waiting).
A. C.
Nice bakery with fresh desserts, good ambient and variety. It's busy so nobody came to clean our table from the last customers, but it's a good Paul in general.
k. T.
We visited for breakfast. Food was delicious...perfect eggs. Always a sign of a good breakfast! Piping hot food & homemade breads & pastries. Well worth a visit when in Covent Garden.
C. E.
So busy around lunch time
T. O.
Lovely warm welcome and best sarnies ever!
B. F.
We love this place. This time is was not for the tasty food but just a pot of tea to kill an hour before going to another restaurant for dinner and to get out of the cold.
H. P.
Lovely food really enjoyed
J. D.
They do afternoon tea at this Paul and it's really cheap! I've been twice and loved it each time. Here are the details:
Afternoon tea - for 2 to share. Available from 2.30pm till 5.30pm
The Afternoon tea is available with:
• a hot drink of your choice £19.90 for 2 (£9.95 per person)
• a glass of Crémant de Bourgogne brut £23.90 for 2 (£11.95 per person)
• a glass of Champagne Gremillet brut £27.90 for 2 (£13.95 per person)
M. M.
Unlike all the other paul branches, the back of this one is a little haven. Waiter service, and a menu of cooked to order delights.
It feels like you've been transported from bustling Covent Garden to a tranquil spot in France. Highly recommended is breakfast, we always go here when my wife and I escape from the kids and have a day in town by ourselves.
J.
Friendly staff, delicious food
J. S.
Great service and beautiful food. Loved the chocolate glazed crossiant. Just a great restaurant/cafe👍🏾
B.
Nice pastry and tea - however I was shocked just how dirty the toilets were, considering the prices to eat here I’d have expected clean toilets with toilet roll! It doesn’t seem they’re frequently checked and/or cleaned.
G. H.
We went for a pre show dinner and the food was ok. The service was actually really great but the food was not amazing. My partner had an omelette which was pretty poor. My dish was ok
M. F.
Such a nice authentic bakery where everything is made and served freshly at reasonable prices, beautiful ambience and atmosphere with the help of a very friendly and professional staff as well.
a. p.
Delicious food, well presented. Friendly ,quick service. My wife loved her quiche. My sandwich on fresh bread was wonderful
P. N. B.
Quiches and pastries are brilliant and delicious! The green tea is different and has a unique flavor to it which is amazing.
S. S.
Tasty food but really small portion of coq during vin. We asked twice for more bread but never arrived. Cocktail was of little alcohol.
L. E.
Very good coffee with fresh scent, diversity of tea, and yummy cakes and sweets. My favorites are the croque truffle and raspberry macaron. Otherwise they are all fantastic.
m. s.
Pop in for a coffee and a cake from their amazong selection ... Promise you will not be disappointed. Plus, this particular branch serves tasty meals as well... Overall, a yummy experience !!!
C. H.
No restaurant dishes, but able to eat takeaway food inside. Thanks to one member of staff for her kindness today.
A. K.
The Hot Chocolate is the best I've ever had!
M. A.
Good service and the afternoon tea was really good value. The only comment I have is that it might be good have more bread types than just brioche.
S. L.
Yummy Ham & Cheese Croissant
S. M.
Surprisingly calm and quiet for a summers event in covent garden! The food was nice and reasonably priced, about £75 for three of us
D. G.
Great choice of snacks 😋
H. A.
Very nice food, but not much of a selection for vegans or vegetarian's, if you like eggs and cheese it's fine,
P. T.
We love going there for lunch every time we're in town. They have the best pasteries.
G. P.
This is my favourite bakery, cakes and pastry are delicious. Try the beinjet they are so soft and light. Staff are lovely too.
G. l.
I have been there for the first time. Had my afternoon tea.
Service, staff and place are great.

The staff were very friendly and accommodating despite the fact the restaurant was packed with people. We came for afternoon tea and it was enjoyable.
A. B.
First visit here and enjoyed lovely tartes & pastries, very friendly staff and all in a comfortable but pretty surroundings. Loved it.
L. W.
Its all about the hot chocolate
P. S.
Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Attentative staff, good food and reasonably priced. What's not to like?
M. B.
Amazing patisserie, great coffee and very good salads and sandwiches. If you go regularly you must apply for their loyalty program.
T. S.
It's good but still a chain type of restaurants so if you tried one you don't have to try another one
A. E.
Really loved the food here and service was very quick! They have a really good lunch time deal.
W. G.
Amazing apple cake. Oat latte was great as well.
A. L.
Very busy but the staff was lovely. The coffee was divine and the biscuits delicious. Worth a try.
E. G.
Great service and happy to accommodate!
R.
Had some hot chocolate here. Was very nice and came quite quick despite the place being rather busy
N. E.
Food is really good
I would give them 5 stars but they had two mistakes with our food and didn't fix it
c. L.
Very squished when busy. Lovely cakes bit the atmosphere let's it down (and no easily accessible upstairs loo)
Y.
Nice bakery. The place is nice, the food too.
Would recommand the staff to be more friendly or smile a bit more
V. K.
Fabulous cakes very helpful friendly staff
A. A.
I like the breakfast in the small room, a nice space for talking and chatting while the noises of London stays outside. I love the ham and cheese baguette 🥖🇫🇷
P. K.
Nice to stop here for cake and a drink
B. R.
Cosy interior, excellent service and the food ... perfection. The afternoon tea "with a Parisian twist" is simply amazing.
N. T.
Great hot chocolate
R. A. S. (.
The sandwiches are very nice, the bread is soft, fresh and tasty, desserts are lovely, I love the fruit croissant they do
G.
We had a little cake and a fresh orange juice, scarce in terms of quantity, warm and not cheap.
L. Y.
Good food, delicious. A bit chilly.
M. S.
Did not go into the main restaurant which seemed rather busy but ate cake and drank coffee at a small table in the front of the cafe and all was good.
A. K.
I like Paul, this is one of their bigger places with proper restaurant. This place can be a little crowded, so you might end up waiting a bit longer for you sandwich or cake.
S. Y.
Good food, fair prices, a bit slow service but still good
A. L.
Beautiful place. Greatest macarons ever. A definite stop next time I'm in town
K. L.
Delicious restaurant with a solid menu and a good variety of drinks. Perfect for preshow dining on the West End!
M. S.
Love the pastries and the chocolate, but the spacing of the tables in the front of the shop is designed for people who don't eat pastries or drink chocolate 😄
J. R.
Fantastic restaurant on site here, with brilliant French cuisine. Will be going again. Great service and ambiance
I. G.
If you are some fine hand crafted pastries , this is the place to go. Tasty treats and nice coffe served there.
R. G.
Paul's has always been my favourite bakery,the amazing range of cakes, tea and savoury snacks. Highly recommend.
L. S.
A perfect decadent weekend treat to enjoy with friends and family. I recommend the gorgeously rich signature hot chocolate.
J. F.
A wonderful coffee time at Paul
K. N.
