"I found this lovely-looking afternoon tea, and I really wanted to try it. This spot is inside the beautiful Kensington Hotel. We walked in from the main front door of the Kensington hotel, and the staff guided us towards the back to where the Town House is located. Once seated, our server explained their current afternoon tea offering. It is called the London Landmarks Afternoon Tea, and features all the major landmarks around the city. The menu was quite lovely, and came with a London map of all the notable and historic landmarks. The afternoon tea will feature many of these landmarks, and you get to see what they are, and where they are. The map is given to the patrons as a souvenir, which I thought was really nice! First, we were served with their “Savouries” course. I didn’t know we were going to receive anything other than whatever comes on the three-tier afternoon items, so we were delighted! They were all so very tasty! After we were finished with them, they brought out this beautiful stand in the shape of London Eye! Wow! They call their menu “a celebration of London” and I totally agree! It was fun to eat desserts in the shapes of famous buildings. The service was excellent! Courteous, warm, and polite. We were very well taken care of the entire time. Thank you! If you are in London and want to try some tasty afternoon tea, filled with everything that is London, give this place a try!"

"I had a wonderful afternoon at this restaurant, which catered exceptionally well to my vegetarian dietary needs. Instead of the typical boring sandwiches, they offered a variety of delicious options. The venue itself is absolutely stunning—a true hidden gem! The decor features amazing artwork from around the world. The service was excellent, and our waiter was very attentive. I will definitely return in the future!"

"Oh no, I was really disappointed with this place. I went on a Friday night after a tube delay made me too late to attend the theatre, where I had tickets."

"the vibe there are few places in london, which I would like to return to the time. for many different reasons, few restaurants and bars are actually on the test of the time. quo vadis, capitancy of sam and eddie hard (from fino and barrafina) and chef jeremy lee, is like a fine wine and is simply better with old. quality is steadfast and never compromised for fashion, luxury is second nature, although never venerable and it is just a great place to have a great old time, no matter what time of day or year they visit. think back luxe laid, there is something clearly English about the deep south above this place; dress smartly or they will feel smartly. the expensive bubbles are always the right answer here so exercise intentionally when it works on a budget. an institution in london and for good reason. perfect for an breakfast date; exquisite menu and many fresh baked goods. take this gourmand(e) they have been poised for some time and maybe hang around until lunch, just because the order they hold the drink classic, and that should they also. do not go too far from the excellent cosmopolitan or espresso martini from the bar. the whiskey cocktails are damn good. Bar snacks are tempting and dig, that will not live itself. try the “Kickshaw” (I will not pamper him for them – they have to find out for themselves) or the smoked Aal sandwich for nibbles if not stick around. when they have a table in the restaurant, they go for their lives. choose from fantasies British dressed like warm salate from longhorn, plucked walnut and bark or mutton shoulder, wide beans and wild garlic. if they choose the appetizer menu, how some of them could be culture voltures only, they do not leave without two-openings of the mandel, blueberry and lemon fair. in others, the sticky toffee pudding is lovely. the game to get a table here can be tricky. they plan it in advance. it is a beautiful place for a drink (the inner bar has a cute corner banquet with strong canoodle inducing forces, there is a handful of soon-achin tables out perfect for summer drinks and people watching a deux) but it is also a safe thing for dinner. they can do this on two; either book a table in the bar for classic pre-dinner drinks in a quirky, British nay post-colonial setting and drive them to the latest restaurant opening in soho for dinner or try them somewhere like eccentric as the French house very close to an aperitif and book them at qw for a slap-up dinner. in the latter scenario, they can still use the cash later if they find that they are one of these woody allen-esque-geist dialogue marathons, even if it ends to be with themselves only. the mistakes are you sweating? another brandy alexander please, bar delicate sex factor 4. if it is not broken, not repair."

"The restaurant itself could use some updates. The carpet was old and stained, and there were food splatters on the walls. Additionally, I noticed a food hygiene rating of 4 prominently displayed on the main window, but the details on the back dated back to 2015. According to the food hygiene ratings app on my phone, they actually had a rating of 2. This is something most people wouldn't notice unless they had experience working with a local council. I genuinely hope they improve their food standards and renovate the restaurant to create a more inviting atmosphere."

"Words simply cannot do justice to this establishment. The ambience, the food, the service were nothing short of perfection, and I utilise that term very deliberately. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgable, charming and funny without ever being ingratiating or false. The a la carte menu was excellent, and our food I had Dover sole and my wife had the lobster risotto, preceded by the oysters and canapés was sublime. The whole experience was unforgettable, the history and sense of refinement is truly palpable without ever seeming forced. It was an experience, and one my wife and I are keen to undertake again at our earliest opportunity. It is luxurious without seeming pretentious or unattainable. We aren’t oligarchs, captains of industry, movie stars or the landed gentry, and that mattered not one iota, the staff were unfailingly warm and attentive. There is a very clear reason Claridge’s has stood the test of time, and long may it continue to do so."

"A return visit for us. We have wanted to try the dinner menu after having lunch here a couple of times. Overall a pleasant experience with a good range of dishes. Extensive wine list. Comfortable lounge for pre dinner and after dinner coffee. More a hotel restaurant than one with walk ins simply because of the location. Lovely gardens and worth arriving a bit early to take a walk."

"Orestone Manor failed to mention they were closed on their open table page and when they phoned to tell me they were, in fact, closed they were not particularly apologetic. In addition, the didn't seem to change their settings on the online booking sites so more people are likely to be let down in a similar manner. Their food might be nice but I shan't try to book again for fear of being let down last-minute in a similar manner."

"We are from Los Angeles visiting relatives and we booked a High Tea. Initially, we were served with nice friendly service as we sat down and placed our order. After that not one server even came back to ask if we needed refill with teas or water. While the three tables around were served with three times and they are all Caucasians. We are Asians. Please tell me there is no discrimination here in UK. Even after I had to flag down a server and her mannerisms were not quite friendly. This gave me a very bad impression with a restaurant like this."

"it was so good to go back to the parson woodforde today that allyson steve is at the tax. a so beautiful pub, recently reopened and worth a visit. lunch was absolutely excellent, the leber and speck was for dying. After we ate in the drayton old lodge at many occasions, we were thrilled to hear that this amazing couple had taken over this pub and gave us a reliable spot to catch up with friends. I could add that we have to travel there for an hour and half a time, but it is worth it. when the opportunity appears, we will certainly use the beautiful accommodation and then they can enjoy the full monty breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner! a beautiful greeting, especially for our labor, harvey, (ventilated in the bar area), which the experience as much as we enjoyed. thanks to allyson and her personal for such a nice lunch time, we will be back! especially when my favorite shiraz was reminded and produced at my arrival how good this is! I wish them all very best in their new venture."

"It was a very comfortable, relaxing, safe and enjoyable experience. Even in a pandemic, Brickyard follows the guidelines and has many seating options with space around you. The food is always 10/10 and a great variety of craft beers on tap, with great cocktails too. If you enjoy the beer or cocktail, you can buy some growlers to go. The Pornstar Martini is my favorite because it’s not so sweet it makes your teeth hurt like other places. You can just sit back and enjoy it and take a double to go home . The Service is always friendly, honest and prompt. We enjoy their brunches too their Mimosa is out of this world and Bailey Lattes hit the spot. For this holiday season, I’m loving their Christmas Sando and their Korean Pancakes are always a staple with our family and group of friends. The Burgers are tasty too they even have a Vegan Burger my vegan friends love. The Chicken wings are yummy in the tummy with all of the variety of flavors tickling your tastebuds and Vegan friendly options of “cauliflower wings” so you can get something tasty. If you like real American hot spicy Brickyard has unlocked this formula and know how to do it well while not destroy the taste of the food. Again Brickyard’s food is 10/10"

"Pros: comfortable, chique, with a variety of dishes and good ingredients, La Maison offers an intimate and pleasant ambience and excellent food. I had a beautiful rich burrito with artichokes and tomatoes to begin followed by a crunchy duck breast, both good with wine and with corresponding secondary dishes. For dessert I had an impressively light and delicious caramel tea with chantilly cream. Coffee: Unfortunately, coffee was not a bit hard with the rest of the evening, undermining the bitter taste of a dark roast with a mild acidic aftertaste and with a somewhat excessive rest of the soil. It was otherwise creamy and pleasant to drink at the moment."

"When I had eaten several times in the shepherd and dog, I was very disappointed last Wednesday. we waited at least 20 minutes for someone to pick up our order, and it was almost an hour when we had set ourselves until we got to eat. we chose from the a la carte menu where past eating was excellent, but on Wednesday the appetizers and main course were very mediocre. nothing like taste, presentation and quality at previous visits. the only saving gnade was the sharing gloomy. we stayed at least one more hour at the table talk and the desert plates and coffee saucers were just left and not removed. my friends and I have often visited for special occasions, but at £40 per head for a midday week without wine we expect better service and eat."

"Popped into Bistro Jacques on a off chance on a Monday lunchtime and was pleasantly surprised by the quick seating and service. The servers were polite and happy to help and although our food was quick to come out and our stay was short, we never felt rushed. We had the chicken and pasta pesto with garlic croute which was delicious, creamy and was in a appropriate portion for lunch. The ambience was relaxing and continental and the price point was very reasonable. Overall I liked Bistro Jacques and would come again."

"I had mixed feelings about this restaurant. The atmosphere and interior design were lovely. However, the staff did not have our booking and seemed annoyed to find a table for us. Despite it being a Saturday night, the venue was only half full. We were told to wait at the bar, which seemed to never be serviced. Eventually, a staff member was surprised and unsure when we ordered drinks from the bar. Once we were seated, the service was good. The starters were exceptional, but the mains were a bit disappointing. It was not clear that the steaks came with no accompaniments besides onions, which was disappointing. The dessert and wine were both delicious. The staff did not rush us out after two hours, which was a nice change from other restaurants."

"Our friends back in New Jersey told us to make reservations at Mulligans, Kieran the owner went above and beyond making us feel welcomed. We were only in Dublin for a few nights , there was 6 of us . Gerry and Renata got us cold drinks and hot food . The atmosphere is wonderful, you feel like family . The service is outstanding and the neighborhood is upscale but not pretentious or stuffy. Will be one of our stops the next time we are in Dublin"
