Lido Cafe Bar
About
The Serpentine Lido Café, nestled on the south side of London’s iconic Hyde Park, offers a charming alfresco dining experience with sweeping views of the Serpentine. This recently refurbished space combines a relaxed café atmosphere with a small roof terrace that opens seasonally from late April to early September, making it a perfect spot for al fresco coffee, tea, sandwiches and light meals. The menu features hearty breakfast options, a range of vegetarian and vegan dishes, specialty coffees and popular teas – plus the option to enjoy a drink in the summer months – catering to families, solo travelers, and lunch‑time workers alike. Facilities include free toilets, a baby changing unit, and ample outdoor seating. For guests on the go, the café accepts card payments only and offers a convenient quick‑bite service for those seeking a bite between walks around Hyde Park.
