Patisserie Valerie - Bromley

On the 30th June 2023, my friend and I went to this specific Patisserie Valerie on purpose to utilise our Buyagift prepaid treat. Thai restaurant is located within the Glades shopping centre. On entering the restaurant, could we went to the counter and advised the member of staff at the till that I had a lunch buyagift. I showed her the document on my phone and she proceeds to write the code down. She then showed me a menu and advise me which pages had the item we could have. We then sat at table half way into the restaurant in the right direction and looked through the menu. Once we had decided, I went over to the counter. They were 4 people queuing up. So I waited for what felt like a considerable time and asked the server as we had already given the Gift code, if someone would take our order at the table. She said I needed to queue up. I ordered the following :- Chicken & Chorizo Croque Madame for the 2 of us. 2 slices of Double Chocolate Gateau 2 cups of Mocha I carried the hot drink and the cake to our table The Mocha was excellent and extremely hot, in a generous sized cup. We then waited a considerable time for our Croque to arrive When it did finally come, it was piping hot. The flavour was very nice but it had very minimal filling inside. The accompanying salad was predominantly lettuce leaf with 1 baby plum tomatoe cut in half, I hardly an explosion of flavours. This element lacked taste, flavour and creativity and needed serious zapping up. So I asked for chilli flakes and mayonnaise and made my own concoction. After eating this, we thoroughly enjoyed our Gateau. It was truelly excellent, had a rich chocolate flavours and was very soft indeed. This was out 1st outing to this Patisserie Valerie and we did enjoy the treat. However the £12.95 cost of the Chicken & Chorizo Croque Madame is somewhat exorbitant keeping in mind it was a cheese topped toasted sandwich. I would not have paid that in full, had it not been part of the buyagift deal. Also for future reference for Pateserie Valerie customers, study the menu for the specific branch of the restaurant you intend going to. On arrival at the restaurant after giving your voucher code, order your food and drink there and then, it will save you unnecessarily queuing up again later.

We visited Patisserie Valerie, in the Glades shopping centre Bromley, on Sunday 26 Feb 2023. I had a voucher for afternoon tea, for my birthday. I had previously phoned and reserved a table, and let the person know of my food allergies. When we arrived we were greeted with a smile, and told of the changes they had made for my allergies. We were so well looked after by the staff, and especially one I think was called Helena. Would defiantly go again when we are in the area.

We came yesterday for a birthday treat for my sister. we were joined by grandchildren too. We were seated and served very promptly by a lovely waitress who explained things to us . Everything was lovely and we all agreed the staff could not have been nicer. All in all a really wonderful experience which everyone enjoyed.

Was given an afternoon tea voucher for a Christmas present. Had afternoon tea here today was excellent service. Firstly was asked if we had any dietary requirements which I thought was excellent! Everything bought to our table. Sandwiches and Cake fresh and tasty the scones were warm which was a nice touch, also staff was attentive amd polite asking if everything was okay. Will definitely come back again

Beautiful French patisserie, gorgeous pastries and excellent coffee. Bespoke cakes for any occasion can also be ordered for collection. The poached eggs on brown toast are delicious too. Order from an extensive menu and the food is prepared freshly for you. Highly recommended if you want something that's not just any old chain
