Where to grab tea around Covent Garden Leicester Square?

Tomorrow will be around Covent Garden Leicester Square around 5pm. Where's good but reasonably priced to grab food.

Not Browns, Dishoom or Cotes as done them so many times!

Any recommendations please?

Masala zone is nice

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 01/06/2026 18:10

L’eto is quite nice.

Trumptontown · 01/06/2026 18:11

Another vote for the Masala Zone. It’s my go-to when in the Covent Garden area

Eggybreadwithnuts · 01/06/2026 22:49

Any other suggestions?

Oh you mean tea as in dinner. Thought you meant tea as in drink.

Flat iron, there’s a nice pub called the coal hole too

Agree with this though, parson’s is one of my favourite spots ever

Palm Court Brasserie, good food and very reasonable for that area.

AtomicBlondeRose · 02/06/2026 07:38

We always go to Tokyo Diner - very casual, quick service, reasonable prices and nice food!

One place we enjoyed a lot was Le Bab - if you sign up to their app in advance they offer good freebies too but the food was delicious and excellent service

Pizza pilgrim. Best pizzas I’ve had outside of Italy.

Did you know that they have an 8 seater chef's table counter in the basement where they put the food right on the counter (no plates)? It's a really fun evening.

If you like Japanese food, Eat Tokyo on Catherine Street is very casual, very very cheap and good quality. That's where we always go before a show.

It’s about a 10 minute walk but brasserie zedel if you mean a meal…. Or do you mean afternoon tea?

The 10 Cases pissed me off - they put a 12.5% service charge on for us sitting at the bar having two glasses of wine. Good Pinot Noir though.

Davros · 02/06/2026 08:59

I’d go in one of the historic pubs, there’s lots to choose from

Wahaca is great 🙂

Tea at the Covent Garden Hotel - A Firmdale hotel. More fun than grabbing anything!
