We had a really enjoyable dining experience here. The ambience and food were superb, one of the best restaurants I've been to in a long time. Visiting in December was a good decision as the place was so festiveley decorated with an amazing Christmas Tree adorning the center of the Restaurant. Being German myself, I was so pleased to have an authentic taste of my homeland in the centre of London. The menu had an excellent selection of German and quite a few Austrian dishes as well. The service was very professional. Although we didn't have the Christmas set menu, the table next to us did, and it looked very authentic and pretty spectacular. We will definitely be back in the new year and also have a Christmas dinner there next year. This place is a real treat and must visit if you're in the local area.

Visited on a busy, bustling Wednesday afternoon. Glad we made a reservation in advance, as every table was taken. Really loved our sausages, washed down with delicious, fruity Bellini's. Unfortunately, the onions weren't crispy & the food went cold very quickly. Once the restaurant emptied out, the temperature in the restaurant really plummeted. We finished our meal with an unforgettable apfelstrudel mit vanillesause. Didn't stick around too much longer after that as we were so cold. Dress warmly if you're dining in winter.

Absolutely loved German Gymnasium! The setting in a heritage building added to the incredible experience, blending history with a modern vibe. The food was delicious—highlights were the Vienna schnitzel, Sachertorte, and the baked cheesecake. A fantastic spot for both the atmosphere and the food!

I've eaten here a few times now and have not been disappointed. I have never booked. I just hoped they had a table for 2 free. I would recommend booking if you've got your heart set on a meal here, wanting a larger table, or it's a special occasion as it's extremely busy. I'm absolutely fascinated by the building itself and the history behind it. Do research it, and I promise as you sit there looking around, it'll take on a whole different persona. Dining is available downstairs, up on the mezzanine, and outside if it's good weather or you're just brave. Upstairs also has a fabulous bar, I might have missed a train or two trying out the gin collection. The food is traditionally German, the coffee is superb, and the range of beverages is overwhelming. The downstairs bar is to be admired. The facilities are ample and clean, you can have your coat taken to the cloakroom on arrival, and they can accommodate your suitcases if you're travelling. The staff are all fabulous, friendly, helpful, and with a good sense of humour. The lovely chappy in charge on the door had us in stitches, a perfect welcome after a long day and a copious amount of rain.
