Reviews
Visited in December when the place had a great festive buzz—people out enjoying themselves, soaking up the atmosphere. We sat in the restaurant rather than the bar, which felt more relaxed. Prices were fair, especially if you're used to London rates. The starters of hummus, sourdough, and chips were all solid, and service was friendly. We didn’t stay for a full meal as we’d already eaten, but the decor inside was lovely. Bonus points for keeping the service charge at a sensible 10%, unlike London’s creeping 13.5% with no added value. Would happily return.
Delightful relaxed but upmarket eatery. Limited vegetarian choice but the dishes we had were delicious and we left replete without the deserts.
Special thanks to the bar team who whisked us up Brandy Alexanders even though they aren't on either the cocktail or dessert menus. 😁🍸
Staff were really friendly and great. Our waitress helped us with the menu.
Love the Winter Garden, was surprise there were no afternoon tea sets. Feel like it's a missed opportunity.
We had the:
- Grilled squid, vizcaina sauce, Spanish black pudding (small portions but decent, not a wow though)
- Buttermilk-fried chicken, chip shop curry sauce, mushroom ketchup (this was surprisingly very nice)
- Mojo rojo pork belly, miso aubergine, yoghurt (So delicious and highly recommend)
- Slow-cooked beef cheek, butterscotch celeriac, remoulade (Nice as well and very soft)
- Beef fat mashed potatoes, overnight onions, beef gravy (yummy mash)
I took my son here for a nice meal before we went over to the palace theatre. Service was good and Vaishnavi couldn’t do enough for us.
My son had the chicken and chips children’s meal and I had the steak. Steak was very nice and chips seasoned at the right level.
We would have stayed for dessert but had to go to watch the production. Looking forward to coming back to bring my wife before we visit the Palace Theatre again later on this year.
