"I arrived 10 mins early for our 8pm booking so, as my partner was running late, I sat at the bar to order 2 Dirty Martinis, so his would be ready on arrival. It is lucky the wall behind the bottles is mirrored, as I had to keep checking to make sure that at a chunky 185lbs, I wasnt suddenly invisible... Several barmen went about their duties and having served the guests to my right, then having a natter among themselves, they then asked the couple if they wanted another drink, while I again checked the mirror to make sure I hadn 't been the subject of some scientific experiment, but NO! I was definitely still there! By 8.12 my partner arrived and I still had not been served so we decided to go straight to the table. The Maitre-d ' didn 't seem surprised and told me our table waiter would be able to get our cocktails... Frankly, for me the cocktail moment had passed and I was ready to order a bottle of wine for the meal, but my partner took the opportunity to order the 2 Martinis. The shared charcuterie board came with 3 half slices of light toast .. 3 on a shared platter seemed strange but when requested more bread came quickly. The quality of meat and additions were excellent and it was a most enjoyable starter. There are some very decent wines at low cost, as well as the usual offerings around double the price. But our Nero D 'avola was just right. I had a succulent Chicken Milanese and my partner enjoyed his Macaroni Cheese. The service was excellent, the waiter was attentive and friendly, and we were not being rushed to leave so we ordered one desert to share. The Pecan pie was amazing. It wasn 't the usual sickly sweet offering elsewhere, and the salted caramel ice cream that accompanied it was superb. Again we were not being rushed, but encouraged instead to finish the last of our wine at leisure.. It was a very enjoyable evening and it reminded me of my first ever date at the old venue some 35 years ago. In those days my date knew a famous actress and soap star who was a frequent visitor to Joe Allen. We were often invited to join her table or take adjacent seats. Joe Allen has lost none of its charm, but I did much prefer the bigger bar and being able to hear the pianist, who apparently was playing while we were there. As Arnie said.... I 'll be back... though I may grab a Martini or Marguerita somewhere else, first."

"A friend and I had breakfast here. I had the bruschetta and my friend had the omelette. the omelette was fluffy, light and well seasoned, and the bread served with it was fresh and warm. The bruschetta was perfect. eggs, bacon and sausage, th eegg was runny and fresh, and we had our fair helping of sauces to go with it. we will be back :"

"I had one of the worst dining experiences that I actually told reception and the manager. I booked and got there and was told just sit anywhere! No menu was given to me and the wait staff disappeared. I had to put my had up a few times and verbally ask if someone could please get me a menus. Then it was a wait to order which I didn't mind so much as they usually give time to decide. My meal came and it was very average huge pieces of smoked salmon just layed over the top of the Caesar Salad but it was ok. Unfortunately that was the last that I saw of any staff members. I was there for 8pm booking until 9.39 and no sign of anyone asking if I would like dessert or even the bill! I had to go walk to the bar and wait (no one there either) to pay. In hindsight I could have just walked out! As a solo traveller it makes me feel like I my custom is not wanted. I know taking a table for one means less money less ordered but it shouldn't be made this obvious that it's not ok to be single. I usually tip big but not this time. Will not be staying there again"

"The staff were all lovely at No. 15 however the bar need to keep on top of the wine menu. We ordered an expensive bottle (it was a celebration! and they didn't have it in stock, but it took them a while to figure that out. A more expensive bottle was substituted at the same price, which was a lovely gesture, however the staff need more training in how to serve expensive wine (temperature and tasting etc . The menu was super interesting and seasonal and the food tasted lovely. There was a lot of kale based veggies given the season though! The dining room is the basement, but accessible via lift and is light, but cosy."

Le Pain Quotidien

French • Belgian • Bakeries • Breakfast-brunch

"A chain with some character, Le Pain serves up great coffee and authentic French sweets and pastries and a mean brunch/breakfast option. I've stopped at Le Pain for coffee and croissants in the past, both of which are excellent at reasonable prices and accompanied by free wifi should you be interested. The real winner here though is the breakfast boards; there are a number to choose from but as an example you can opt for The Angler which arrives on a large wooden board and includes a boiled egg a very generous serving of smoked salmon with capers a wedge of baguette two slices of soft bread fresh cream cheese choice of croissant/pain au chocolat/pastry selection of jams choice of hot drink fresh orange juice granola parfait At just under 16 pounds this is a late breakfast option that will satisfy even the hungriest customer. It gets quite busy though, so don't expect much attention from the servers and you'll inevitably end up a few pieces of cutlery short. If you don't mind that it's worth a visit, and if suggest sharing a few boards between you as one per person is really far too much food!"

"Wandering around Soho we walked by Le Pain and decided to give it a try looks nice from the outside with all these bread put forward on display. Ordered some house Chardonney with olives to start with and then Pizzetta, Organic Lentil Avocado Salad and Prosciutto with Mozzarella on toast. All really good. House wine excellent for house wine category, olives with some spicy flavour, salad was fairly reach (variety of veggies inside), ham was tasty and only pizzetta could have been, perhaps, a bit warmer... Staff really nice and knowledgable about the menu, their advice should be highly appreciated. They're good. Overall recommended, really. Would have been 5 if it wasn't for this...read more"

"We had a lovely meal here while on holiday in the area. Our favourite of the three places we tried. The service was excellent, friendly and helpful, and the food delicious. The special roast pork was superb; my other half enjoyed his steak. We sat in the garden at the back, where the tables were well spaced. Felt very comfortable with all the measures"

"I attended at 14.30 on Wednesday 21/02/18 with a business associate. Pro's: I had the grilled chicken Ceasar salad which was a good size and delicious. Lovely dressing. I asked for a glass of water and a caraf was delivered. My associate had a cake and a coffee which she enjoyed. Cons: My associate had a baby with her and there was no high chair offered, so she had to hold the baby herself for the entire lunch (90 min session. It took 20 mins(! for a waiter to visit our table for the 1st time and take a drinks order. We finished our meal and needed further drinks and sat for 45 mins (no exaggeration! trying to get someones attention. I then stood up and went to the bar to pay as it was clear that there was no point in spending any more time there. When I asked the waiter for a VAT receipt he had no idea what I was asking for. I had to call one his colleagues over, who then had to explain it. Sort your service out. The good salad is not enough to warrant a 2nd visit with this shockingly bad service!"

"I really enjoyed the food and the variety of choices offered at this restaurant. However, some of my pickier companions couldn't find anything that appealed to them. The service was friendly and the restaurant was bustling with activity. Some patrons seemed to be more focused on alcohol consumption, which added to the noise level at times. Overall, we were pleased with the food quality, portion sizes, and the attentive service from the staff."

"I enjoyed the food and variety at this restaurant. However, some of my pickier family members struggled to find appetizers they liked. The service was welcoming, and the restaurant had a lively atmosphere. Some customers seemed to be a bit rowdy due to alcohol consumption, causing some noise disturbances. Despite this, we were satisfied with both the delicious food and the attentive service provided by the staff."

"I am a HUGE Cote fan have gone on a regular basis for years with friends family in Glasgow London. Most recently in December Visited last night with friends was embarrassed as I chose to eat there booked telling them it was great tasty food, great value great wines. food was bland, not great, not a lot of it they only had 3 types of gin drinks were slow to come had to be chased on 3 occasions restaurant was only at best half full, so no idea why we had to continually chase drinks that did not arrive. I really don't enjoy posting this review as previously I have always enjoyed the food had a good dining experience liked the set menu a la carte choice. It looks like maybe the cost of living crisis has hit the chef recipes/ingredients/quality have dipped significantly. None of my friends had previously been to Cote so not a great experience for them on my recommendation"

"A really disappointing experience. When I arrived all the staff were busy, so I took a seat. I got essentially told off by a waitress for this. My mistake, I thought, so just forgot about it. I arrived at Noon at it took 20 minutes to take my drinks order and I didn’t get order any food until gone 12.45pm. Again though, they had warned that the kitchen was a little behind (they said 10 minutes) and a large group arrived just after me so no big deal. Then, as one of our group went to the toilet a waitress grabbed the empty chair (without asking) to give to another group. We very politely informed them that there was in fact someone sitting there. “You should have put a bag there, then” came the reply. Very unpleasant totally unreasonable. I won’t be returning I certainly wouldn’t recommend it to anyone Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £10–20 Food: 4 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 4"

"I usually come here for lunch with a friend, but I was disappointed during my last visit. The restaurant was busy, with many young children at nearby tables. However, the service was lacking and the food did not meet my expectations. It appeared that they were short-staffed as we struggled to get anyone's attention to place our order or ask for the bill. Our meals were overcooked, which may have been due to them sitting on a heated plate for too long. Although the food wasn't terrible enough to complain and ask for a replacement, the overall experience has made me reconsider whether I will come back or look for another dining option."

"We enjoyed a wonderful three-course meal on June 23, 2023. The dishes were absolutely delicious, including the pig's cheek, guinea fowl, chocolate and orange ice cream, and pineapple tart. The meal was great value for money, and we will definitely be coming back. The staff was polite, helpful, and professional. Our female server (unfortunately, we didn't catch her name) was delightful and shared insightful information about the food and the course she was clearly passionate about. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. Thank you!"
