Aubaine Wimbledon

We have eaten many times at Aubaine, Brompton Road, South Kensington and thought we would try this newest branch in Wimbledon Village.

So decided to have breakfast there this morning and sat outside in the garden area at the back of the restaurant which was very pretty and relatively spacious.

Our order of 2 fresh juices, scrambled eggs (2 eggs max), porridge, toast & jam and 2 teas came to eye watering £37.00 but it was not just the absurd prices charged it was the food itself and the lacklustre service.

Although the food was just ok, it was the size of the portions that were poor and one area of concern was that we asked specifically for the porridge to be made with water and not milk which was not a problem as we were told it could be prepared either way but when it arrived it had been made with milk and had to be returned and so we had to wait for another to be made correctly.

Service was attentive but not polished and we were forever having to ask for things that should have been offered to us in the first place.

Whether the local residents of Wimbledon Village will put up with the ridiculous prices charge by this restaurant only time will tell.

we went to this restaurant on friday 10th august.
Very pleasant decor .we were directed to a table in the rear of the main dining area
but asked if we could eat in the patio garden

We were told that there was only service until 9pm in this garden.ok
The waiters were very pleasant but clearly not trained in their job,they hovered around like sheep.
Our food came and we had Gazpacho soup which looked delicious but sadly that was all it was so full of oil that it made both of us feel very sick infarct we left half uneaten .
our main course was also very nicely presented ,but everything was cooked in very rich butter.

we both felt most unwell and to make thins worse we were charged for a bottle of wine which we did not order

Shame because it very local to us but we wont want to return again until we are assured that the standard matches the nice decor which this restaurant has.

also very pricey for the type of food delivered

Booked a table for four to enjoy brunch on a Sunday with old friends having been tempted by the cakes in the windows and the beautiful interior design. I asked for a table in the window when making my reservation and this was given to us on arrival, but that is where the positives end. Surly service from teenage waitresses is fine in a greasy spoon, but not when you are paying over £20 for a very average brunch. The food was very disappointing, Eggs Florentine cold, Duck Egg Omlette with Smoked Salmon had a slither of salmon and a £12 price tag, everything was below par. The coffee is good, but half the price, and better, at Paul opposite. This is definitely a style over substance establishment.
