"This is a charming old building, nicely decorated for Christmas. The meal cost £130 per person for Christmas lunch pleasant pub grub. The turkey was reconstituted rather than carved off the bone, sprouts a bit over done. I don't think all the food was freshly made on the premises using local ingredients as they claimed some elements seemed definitely factory made. My husband had the lamb which was very good. No drinks included in the price of the meal coffee was supposed to be, but they charged us (they did apologize and remove the charge once we pointed it out) . I ordered from the champagne list to receive a bottle of sparkling wine which was room temperature although it did gradually chill after being in a cooler with ice for a while. The staff were very nice there was a 12.5 service charge added to the bill of £360 for three people without drinks. The music ranged from a Beyonce album to generic pop to poppy versions of Christmas songs, quite loud, and the room was very hot and smelling of Bisto gravy. It was pleasant but overpriced, but that's what you get when you leave it too late to book anywhere else for Christmas lunch! When you pay that much you do expect a slightly more premium experience,though."

"The food was excellent, but we will probably not go back when we hear that the service has improved. Our table was booked for 7.15 a.m. and we waited one hour before our order and then another hour before our food. To be fair, some of our party came 15 minutes too late and we apologized, as we know that this can cause problems for the staff. However, we would have estimated an explanation or apology for the delay. When our dessert menu came, we all felt that it was too late to eat one so we did not order. It was a shame when we all agreed that the food was excellent."

"The food was excellent, but we probably won't return until we hear that the service has improved. Our table was reserved for 7:15, but we waited an hour before we could place our order, and then another hour before our food arrived. To be fair, a few people in our group were 15 minutes late, and we apologized since we know that can cause issues for the staff. However, we would have appreciated some acknowledgment or apology for the delay. By the time the dessert menu arrived, it felt too late for us to order dessert, which was disappointing because we all agreed that the food was outstanding."

"Been meaning to go to the Store for a roast dinner for a while as i have eaten here before and the atmosphere, drinks and food have always been top. Unfortunately the roast dinner did not live up to expectations. The roast beef is 19£ in which you would expect it to be very high standard. We ordered all the sides as it was a girly get together and we had been looking forward to the roast for ages. To our surprise, the food came out pretty quick we ordered 2 x beef and 1 chicken. The beef had 1 slice of beef 2 potato 2 carrots some sort of small onion cabbage thing and 1 piece of broccoli and a dried out Yorkshire pudding FOR 19£!! I couldn't believe it, our sides then came out the cauliflower cheese had hardly any cheese or sauce, the pigs in blankets were burnt and some missing blankets, the stuffing was the only decent side. My other friends chicken then came out which looked like a better portion side but was unfortunately cold. She sent this straight back and believes that it was microwaved and given back to her so she refused it. Me and my other friend was so hungry we had no choice but to eat the food. We pulled this up with the waitress and if im honest she couldnt have been happier to help. They dealt with the situation very well. We was offered a discount on the food and extra roasties. I can say that when eatting the roast the gravy was good but the potatoes were not good and the lack of food on the plate for 19£ put an overall sore taste in our months. The way the staff handle the complaint was second to none so on this basis i will be returning to the restaurant just probably not order a roast. If the price wasnt so high there wouldnt be such high expectations. Maybe something to consider for the future."

"This London restaurant is one of the best. Each dish is bursting with flavor and made with top-quality ingredients. The T Bone steak is possibly the best I've ever had. The atmosphere is wonderful, especially during the Christmas season. I can't wait to return. Many thanks to Antonio and the rest of the team for the fantastic service. Overall rating: Food 5, Service 5, Atmosphere 5."

"Alas, I only make it to the Abingdon once a year purely and simply because I live on a different land mass. But when I return to the UK and spend even a couple of nights in London, a trip to the Abingdon is a must. The atmosphere is easygoing and low key, the space stylish, the staff are unfailingly good humored and accommodating, and the food is consistently wonderful the menu varied, the portions generous without being excessive, the preparation and presentation outstanding. Above all, the cocktails, made by the peerless Luigi, are among the very best I've tasted in the UK and I'm including the work of giants of the field like Dale DeGroff and Simon Difford in that estimation. Prepared with nuance and precision, Luigi's cocktails, especially his take on classics, are sublime and he'll rise to a challenge. The Abingdon now has the feel of a local for me; I only wish that it were."

"I visited my elderly Mum today, she suggested going to the Derby Arms for a roast dinner as she'd eaten there recently with my sister. However they were fully booked, so I looked online and found Galu. The reviews were great and my Mum has only ever heard good things from friends and neighbours. So I called and booked for 12:45 Sunday 21st Jan 2024. We were both pleasantly surprised to see roast dinners on the menu ... Mum order lamb and I ordered beef part of their set menu. When the dinners arrived, you could see straight away that the lamb was Very Fatty (not even crispy) when my my tried eating it, it was both tough and chewy! As for the beef, this was cooked ok and edible, although I asked for the beef to be medium, but it was more well done. The waiter came over to ask if the meal was ok, I highlighted how the lamb was... the manager then came over and offered my Mum a slice of beef to compensate, bearing in mind she ordered lamb. Mum subsequently found that some of her roast potatoes were hard inside! I finished my meal, but could see Mum really didn't enjoy hers leaving a substantial amount on her plate, and having tried her lamb it really was inedible! We were then offered a full list of desserts rather than the set menu, having chocolate brownie and creme brûlée (both were gorgeous) When the bill arrived, I was hoping they would have somehow made amends, but alas no ... as Mum doesn't like to cause a fuss and it was her treat, I decided not to say anything, although the staff manager could tell we weren't happy. Having come from East Sussex for the day and regularly have great Sunday roasts in local pubs, I was hoping for something special in this restaurant, but sadly that wasn't the case. In fact it's probably one of the worst roast dinners I've had in a long time. I very much doubt we'll return ..."

"We enjoyed the pre-theater menu with a discount voucher at this restaurant. The staff and service were excellent, and we particularly liked the swordfish and burgers with sweet potatoes. However, my plum crispy pudding was delicious but my friend's chocolate brownie was very dry and she couldn't eat it. We informed the waiter about the issue, but the brownie was still included in the bill. Overall, I don't think I would return unless there was a discount, as the prices are quite high. Nonetheless, the restaurant is located in a popular summer town."

"This was my 2nd time at this restaurant. On arrival we didn't have reservations but were quickly seated. It was not busy. We were 2 adults and one child. We had a look at the menu and ordered our foods. We adult had bottom less drinks. The food was good. Good portions apart from the starter of king prawns. I found it overpriced for what it was (4 prawns). You could not really taste the so call garlic and herbs. I ended up ordering the prawns cocktail. We should have gone for that from the start. More value for money on it. And tastier. So I def recommend the prawns cocktail for started it can also be easily shared by 2. My chicken was well cooked, and my friend stake was cooked well too. My kid enjoyed her burger and chips and had a ice cream in the end. Which wasn't too bad. Service was ok. No issues on payment. Overall we enjoyed ourselves. It would be nice if the kids many had something to keep the kids entertained. But I would otherwise say that is as family friendly restaurant."

"It was a bit challenging to get in just for a drink because the person at the entrance was strict. However, once inside, we enjoyed sitting at their new bar. The staff was excellent and they had an impressive selection of drinks. While the prices were high, they were justified by the fact that we were drinking premium tequila and mezcal. The experience reminded me of a trip to Mexico!"

"The four of us skipped the starter and so we just ordered our main meals. However, after waiting well over an hour, I approached one of the waiters to find out if there was a problem. Eventually our meals arrived, but oh dear, what a disappointment. My skate wing was small and together with a few diced potatoes and some spinach, it looked more like a starter. Hence I ate my meal slowly, otherwise if I had eaten this fish dish at my normal pace, I would have finished it in a very short space of time. My friend said his pork was mostly fatty and my wife told me her lamb was warmish, but certainly not hot. The evening was also spoilt by several people at a table close by being extremely loud and very noisy, so much so, that conversation was to put it mildly extremely difficult. We eventually paid our bill, which we negotiated downwards. The manager was very sorry that we had a very disappointing meal and expressed his apologies. Nevertheless, although we consider ourselves regular customers of Cyprianis, we will not be in a hurry to return."

"Splendid visit in every aspect. We arrived early for our reservation and were directed to the library where we were served drinks. The menu was à la carte but we were informed this is due to change in the next month or so. We had complementary canapés and warmed bread rolls whilst waiting for the first course and mini sweets to accompany the coffee at the end of the meal. Wonderful ambience, attentive staff, terrific comfortable venue, delicious food."

"This restaurant was recommended to me but I will not be recommending to anyone!! Overprice and food was well below average. I had king scallops to start and the skate wing…..scallops were tiny and the skate was over cooked and soggy and had been frozen and was not fresh. My son had the beef ragu and was average taste and for the price was not a good sized portion and neither was his salt and pepper squid. I love my local restaurant Due Amici in chislehurst but aren’t open on Sundays and I was told Cyprianis was comparable……it’s is not!! Same prices but well below par food and not even table cloths and felt like a cafe rather than a good restaurant. Very disappointing and feel ripped off."

"Good beer and gin selection. Fish and chips very tasty. Beautiful pub! Etched glass exceptional, wood work adds cozy feel. Busy at times but not overcrowded meat market in late afternoon. Have visited several times when in London and hope to visit again. What an American thinks a pub should be like!"
