Friends Of Ours at Serpentine is a vibrant, all-day restaurant, housed in the spectacular Magazine building designed by Zaha Hadid. Taking culinary inspiration from every corner of the world, we offer inventive dishes that appeal to all the senses.

We also do amazing things with eggs and our coffee is out of this world!

You'll find us nestled in the heart of Hyde Park, attached to the Serpentine North gallery and easily accessible from South Kensington, Hyde Park Corner or Lancaster Gate.

We’ve been here twice now both occasions food has been delicious. The ambience and cleanliness is excellent. This is by far the best place to relax on a day out to Hyde Park.

We waited for someone to come to our table and to order and then our food took 45 - 50 minutes to come. The waitress profusely apologized but told us she was only comping our beverages, which were two orange juices and a coffee....The front door was also left open and it is quite cold outside and it made the interior of the restaurant quite cold as well. I love the location, the architecture, the food, and the calm vibe, however the negatives made some of the people in our party write the restaurant off completely.
