We walked from Buckingham Palace through the park to this spot. It is a flat accessible walk . Lots of people walking or on bikes and roller skates. Beautiful trees, wildflowers birds and squirrels to look at and listen too. Once we arrived at the speakers corner it was disappointing to find out it's just a coffee and ice cream stop. A very expensive cafe stop too! The debates only happen on a Sunday and people come to stand and watch.
Nice little cafe with pleasant staff. Prices ok for tourist london. We had a sandwich, cake and coffee all good. We watched the world go by on a sunny, windy day. The world was good at this place at that moment.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Speakers’ Corner in Hyde Park is one of the most fascinating places London. It’s a lively spot filled with all sorts of weird, wonderful, and entertaining characters. You can hear people passionately debating everything under the sun—politics, religion, philosophy, and plenty of quirky, unexpected topics. One minute you’re listening to a heated discussion on world events, and the next, you’re hearing someone talk about something completely off-the-wall. Whether you want to join the debate, listen in, or just watch the show, it’s an experience like no other. Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for something different and uniquely London! Best to go Sunday Afternoons after 1pm end up spending entire day, extremely entertaining!! People will shout over each othet argue debate insult but its all peaceful Definitely worth going!
A great outdoor space within one of the King's parks; with great historical significance for being a place to speak your mind and debate aloud... not a place for the easily offended. The best crowds are on a Sunday afternoon, but the odd debate does occur during the week.
Speakers' Corner in Hyde Park is a truly iconic spot, brimming with history, debate, and free expression. Located in the northeast corner of the park, it has been a platform for public speaking since the 19th century. The experience is lively, sometimes chaotic, but always intriguing. Visitors can expect to hear a wide variety of topics being passionately discussed, ranging from politics and religion to social issues and philosophy. The speakers, both seasoned and spontaneous, draw a diverse audience that often engages with questions, counterarguments, and even their own mini-speeches. It’s a wonderful display of democracy in action—anyone can grab a step stool and voice their opinions. One of the best things about Speakers' Corner is its unpredictability. You may stumble upon a fiery debate or a calm philosophical discourse. This variety makes each visit unique. However, it can be overwhelming at times due to the crowd size and the sometimes heated nature of discussions. In terms of setting, Hyde Park’s greenery offers a lovely backdrop, balancing the intense debates with the serenity of nature. After spending time at the Corner, it’s easy to wander into the park for some peace and reflection. Overall, Speakers' Corner is a must-visit for those interested in public discourse, history, or simply witnessing the power of free speech in action. It may not be for everyone—especially those looking for tranquility—but for the curious and open-minded, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the heart of British democratic tradition.
Bettter to watch on YouTube… whole lot of screaming and shouting and can be hard to listen in to any meaningful conversations. Did have one interaction where I learnt something new. Otherwise, it’s worth visiting once to experience but I don’t think I’ll be returning. Visit on Sunday after 2pm as we went in the morning at 11 and it was completely dead until we returned later at 4/5.
A corner full of people sharing their valuable opinion to others having conversations discussing world politics. But unfortunately there are some who are always there to insult the other Idk who thought them these or what kind of sick mentality they have.
The most disrespectful lady working in the coffee shop and very rude to customers, I used to love this place but now will never come back. If you want to validate what I am saying please chech the CCTV if there is one. today 5 October at around 12 pm a man with his son and see how she treated us.
The was fabulous. Lots of banter, sometimes a bit heated, but overall good. Recommend you get there after 2pm on a Sunday.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Hilarious and fun afternoon listening to what some people have to say standing on their boxes. Freedom of speech so can say what they like. Some people say very offensive things but just walk away if you don’t like it. I found a few of them boring topics and most absurd but have to remember it’s what they want to talk about and their thoughts. Many people come off to the side in their own debates which you can join. Very interesting and worth the visit. It’s a feee event.
