"Where do is start? Everything about this pub is amazing! The friendliest staff I have ever experienced, great atmosphere, great drinks and even better prices. This is honestly the place to go if you find yourself in Camden and want to find a nice pub. I come here regularly and go solo as most of my friends don’t drink, but every time I have went, I have met some amazing people and it’s now at the point where I go in and it’s impossible not to see someone I know. Prices £5.50 for a Heineken but that is a brilliant price for London. Most other pubs you go to will want £6 or more for the same drink. Great atmosphere, very welcoming and friendly people and part of the pub turns into a dance floor from 10pm to 3am on Friday and Saturdays. There is never a bad day to visit but I highly recommend Friday and Saturdays. You may see somewhere callled “Blues Kitchen” opposite with a long queue but it is overhyped and overpriced. This truly is your best bet for a great night in Camden. I highly recommend you come here. Mr Heineken"

"Make the hipster jokes early. The Lioness of Leith is a funky pub at the bottom of Leith Walk that’s full of fun decorations – like parrots, neon and a pinball machine converted into a table. It’s a complete overhaul of the dangerous and dark pub that once stood on the corner. The walls have been knocked into large windows. In the sun it’s lovely and bright. I appreciate it’ll probably get much more gloomy at night. Staff and friendly and fun. The range of drinks is good. My experience, though, The Lioness of Leith has been all about the Sunday lunches. I’m yet to try their dinner menu because it looks so weird and posh (hipster, right) but half a chicken on Sunday between two with Yorkshire puddings, tatties, veggies and some lovely gravy. What a treat! Turn up for a Sunday lunch and be prepared to wait for your table. [Update April 2023: I wrote my original review when the Lionesses was just a pup. How has it changed? It's still great. Staff still friendly. It's so great it's super busy so book your table!"

"I recently visited the Swan for the first time since the management change. Although the drinks took a while to arrive, the serving staff were exceptionally polite. The starters, ranging from bruschetta to prawns, were really good. The mains were a mix of great pizzas and kids pasta, with average ribs and a risotto that was initially good until one guest found some grit in it. When we pointed this out to the chef, they insisted it was a peppercorn, which we knew it definitely was not. Despite this, we didn't make a big deal out of it as another family member was covering the bill, but personally, I believe the chef should have been more honest about the mistake. It's something they should reflect on for the future."

"I had a wonderful meal at this restaurant. I tried the festive menu and enjoyed all the dishes. The server was kind enough to switch my calamari for buffalo wings when I had food envy. They also honored the 2 cocktails for £12 deal, even though it was a weekday offer. The restaurant took all necessary COVID precautions and practiced social distancing, which may have contributed to the quieter atmosphere than usual for this time of year. Typically, there would be a more lively party atmosphere."

"Having lived close by for 5 6 years I was a frequent visitor but it really isn't what it used to be. I've watched it change little by little whilst still frequently enjoying the overall experience. Went in earlier in the week and since my last visit I was pretty gutted to see there have been further changes. The chicken blasts which were always amazing covered in sauce are now smaller, in different coating, served dry with a small pot of sauce on the side whilst two halfs of a jalepeno rest on two quarters of corn on the cob. No more mad burritos with halloumi, fries and rice now you pick either rice or fries and no, 1/2 1/2 not allowed). Why fix something that was never broken? The queso fundito was good and I really enjoyed the popcorn octopus special but it's one compromise too far for me. For the last time we left with full tummies, regrets and empty hearts. :"

"We had an 8pm reservation and arrived a couple of minutes beforehand. Despite being able to find the reservation in the system, there was no table for us until 8.20pm. In the meantime, another party with a later reservation came in and was seated. I appreciate that their party was larger and was therefore given the larger table that became available first, but still think it reflects poorly on the restaurant that they weren’t organised for a booking. The staff were polite and briefly apologetic but didn’t seem too bothered by their error. The food itself was good. We had tempura prawns to start, which came with a delicious dipping sauce. I then had a fillet steak for my main course. I ordered rare but what I received was more akin to medium rare and even medium in parts. Only the very middle was rare. This might be due to the ‘tall’ nature of the cut (see pictures). The medium rare ribeye was good. The sides were huge. We barely finished the truffle chips between us. The mac ‘n’ cheese was OK – I would have preferred it without the crumb topping as in my opinion it has no place in the dish. It was described on the menu as having this though, so I knew what I was getting myself into. The service was mostly good, though there was one member of the wait staff who seemed a bit out of their depth. They were very young and I think perhaps new. Luckily it was very quiet (I think we were the last table seated that evening, so by the time we were onto our mains, the place was dead) so this wasn’t much of a problem. There is just one toilet, an accessible bathroom and baby change combo. I was disappointed to see the emergency pull cord tied up out of reach, rendering the bathroom unsuitable for some disabled customers. The bathroom in general was not overly clean and in need of refurbishment. In my experience, the place is not deserving of the current 4.3 star Google or 4.5 star Trip Advisor ratings, but has potential if management can sort out the issues listed above. I would like to score 3.5 but as this is not possible, I am going to round down on this occasion."

DO NOT USE THIS PLACE!!! you run the risk of paying for food you get get to eat and wait almost 2 hrs....."

"a relaxed atmosphere with friendly service. the pina colada, strawberry daiquiri and espresso martini were really good! huge size, tasteful drinks- impressive! jj tater zets were spicy, jalapeños and melted cheese. I barely shared it with someone because I enjoyed them so much. the pork replacement ribs were massive, it filled the whole plate and then some. they were super delicate and fall out of the bone. the sauce was tasty, not transferred. Finally, the Cajun chicken tacos beef chili tacos were satisfied. 3 tacos in each order plus rider and another side. the tacos were generously filled. this small place is super busy really fast, so they come earlier in the day or late in the night."

"we shared a big wing, they were the best we had in a long time. the Asian salmon and the classic burgers were very good. all left off the service, a table of 4, which came in well 10 minutes after us served before us and my head of Asian salmon came with the starter. I sent it back, but I'm almost sure that the same dish was served when we finished our starter when it was warm."

"The service was excellent, and the staff were both friendly and engaging, while also being very prompt. The food was outstanding! I recommend trying the small plates—about five would be sufficient for two people. I particularly enjoyed the buttermilk chicken and the lamb. I will definitely return if I'm ever in Leicester again."

"Situated right in the heart of Portobello Market, this cozy restaurant transports you to Thailand with its authentic flavors. Our party of 8 was accommodated without a reservation, and we were all impressed with the delicious dishes we ordered. The standout dish was the Mango Sticky Rice - a must-try! We will definitely be returning for more."

"This restaurant is a great place to visit. I would highly recommend it. I went there on Friday, March 18th, 2022 for lunch and received excellent table service. The drinks were delicious, the food was incredible, and the atmosphere was fantastic. The rolls were so delicious that I ended up ordering more. Everyone in my group was very satisfied. The restrooms were clean and the dining areas were hygienic. The table accessories at Bone Daddie's were very useful. I definitely plan on returning sometime in the future."

"We had the pleasure of dining at this remarkable restaurant yesterday, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the stage for a truly delightful evening. The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the Beef Bourguignon. It was a masterpiece of flavors tender, rich, and perfectly seasoned, every bite was a testament to the chef’s skill and the quality of the ingredients used. Paired with a beautifully chosen wine, it was simply divine! What made our dinner even more special was the exceptional service we received from Massimiliano. His professionalism and genuine passion for hospitality shone through every interaction. He made us feel like honored guests, offering insightful recommendations and ensuring every aspect of our dining experience was flawless. Massimiliano's attention to detail and warm demeanor elevated our evening to new heights. I can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough! With exquisite food, top notch staff made by professional and always smiling people, and a team manager like Massimiliano, who bring an extra touch of magic to every meal, it truly is a hidden gem. We left with our hearts full and our taste buds dancing. Thank you for an extraordinary dining experience – we can’t wait to return!"

"The First Impression is not always the last!!!!! we visited venue 5 for a birthday celebration, it is easy to locate and a fair decor. After being seated, i realized that the wine glass had a crack. Asked it to be changed, but the new glass never arrived. i reminded about 3 of servers to get a new one but no luck. finally one of them managed to conjure it but unfortunately it was dirty with wine stains on the bottom of the glass which was for me a big turn off. After a very bad first encounter, we only hoped we food better me good. We started with their Rasila-mango, chocolate freeze and couple mojito , which to my surprise was good. The mojito was served in a jar looking glass which was new and fun. We ordered about 6 starters including both Veg and non-veg. The portion size was good and not too much that you cant dare to eat mains after that. I specially like their garlic sauce prawns. For the mains we ordered V5 special lamb, which was nice and tender, chicken handi and of course prawns which i turned a fan off (P.s. i am a huge Prawns fan). The butter paaner was creamy and was not entirely made of tomatoes like some which i have eaten. My friends ordered Soya methi which i thought was weird combination but tasted good. The tandoori roti was soft and not like cold and hard you find in some of the restaurants. I was a bit disappointed with their chicken fried rice because the rest of the food tasted very good. Overall we had a good birthday celebration and all of us were very happy with the evening. Other than the incident with the glass which is the only reason i am marking it as great and not love it, its a good place to dine with your friends and family. Good portion size, good quality of food and acceptable pricing and good selection of cocktails and mocktails. Will sure to visit soon and hope the food taste the same or even better."

"Went as a party of 4 for dinner on our first night of a weekend in Bath after the restaurant being recommended by friends who have dined there before saying it was the best food they had tasted outside of Thailand. So, was expecting great things and boy did it deliver. The sharing platters as starters were amazing, So much flavour and the presentation was top notch. The mains were out of this world. I had Pad Kee Mao it was so good I bought the cookbook to replicate at home. Everyone in our party couldn't say enough good things about the food. The guy serving us was brilliant, great personality, fantastic sense of humour and nothing was too much trouble. Also had a beautiful Buddhist watch you know who you are). If you get the chance go, it's awesome. Just make sure to book in advance."
