"I like the restaurant. However they don’t serve the restaurant menu till 6:30. So I had to chose from limited options which was served before that time. I visited twice—first for breakfast around 12:00 PM, but I was told breakfast is only served until 11:30 AM, so I had to settle for a less preferred option. It wasn’t bad, just not what I had in mind. I came back again at 5:00 PM hoping to try the restaurant menu, but was informed it’s not available until 6:30 PM. I had to order from the café menu, which had limited options. Although the staff were friendly, service was a bit slow—I had to request the bill several times and waited around 30 minutes to get it. Despite that, I’d still like to return after 6:30 PM to try the full restaurant menu. Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4"

"My partner and I went to this restaurant for our anniversary meal and had a reservation on a Saturday at 12:30. The first 45 minutes were quiet as we had the place to ourselves, which we enjoyed as it can get pretty loud when it's busy. The service was fast and friendly, and one of the waiters even brought us a complimentary Mac and cheese, which was a nice gesture. As a special treat for our anniversary, we were given a free glass of Prosecco each, which was a thoughtful touch. The food was fantastic - the oysters we ordered were large and fresh, served with a delicious salad and vinaigrette. The calamari we had as a starter was also lovely. We opted for the lobster combo, and the lobster rolls were delicious with a generous amount of fish filling. Although we couldn't finish all the food, we felt it was worth the price for the quality and portion size."

"I didn't realize this restaurant was in a hotel, but we figured out our direction and made it in time for our reservation all the same. Laurel on the Roof is a cozy restaurant with panoramic views of London. We went for brunch and I had the full English breakfast and my husband had the French Toast, both of which were fabulous. We paired the meals with mimosas and other breakfast cocktails, which were well balanced. The wait staff were attentive but not overly enough to bother you. We felt free to enjoy our meal at a leisurely place. It was a great meal to end our trip to the UK."

"I have previously visited this restaurant for weekend brunch, but had not gone since last year. I ordered the French toast and the omelette. Unfortunately, both dishes were not as good as they were in the past, but they were acceptable. I also mentioned that I was celebrating a milestone when I made the reservation, however, it was not acknowledged until the end of the meal when the waiter congratulated me while giving me the bill. Despite this, I appreciated the gesture, but it felt a bit late. The atmosphere was pleasant and the staff were friendly and welcoming overall."

"Vegan food wasn’t without milk so couldn’t have the vegan meal If it is advertised as vegan, it should be vegan not then altered so that two components don’t go together. Sat totally separated from everyone else, waiter refused to move us despite there being lots of room. We were only a table of 2 and sat in our own, cut off section. Our friends invited us to join their long table, this was refused. No vegan puddings. One waiter was very helpful with my dietary requirements. Food arrived but chips were swiftly removed as apparently they weren’t for me and new ones arrived some time later. Overall, a really disappointing meal."

"my sister and I visited gatsby for her hip hop brunch and were so impressed. we were in a few groundless brunettes in london, but gatsby was definitiw from a higher standard. the food was delicious and really filled, the unlimited drinks in the offer were great (especially the paloma and the daiquiri, and for £26 when it felt like a good value for money. the personal was the perfect measure of attention as they regularly came to our table to check if we wanted another drink (we managed to get through 5 in 90 minutes! . once our 90 minutes were up, we stayed another half an hour just to finish our remaining drink, so it was nice not to rush out of the door. the bananenbrot was delicious, and for the first we had both the roti sri lankan frit (with cheeksen and it was amazing - so great aromen and textures. I would definitely order the excitement again! we shared our sides, the Syrian Patatas band and the fried aubergine – would also recommend them. the music was also really good, although we did not too much attention to how we were buzzing around. cannot think of something that could improve brunch. we will definitely go back in the near future! (ps amazing vegan options on both the brunch menu and the regular menu!"

"Disappointing. Has there been a change of chef recently? I used to go to polpetto regularly a year or two ago but I went back today for lunch and couldn't recognise anything on the menu. No maple tart for dessert for example and the waiter had never heard of it. It used to be one of their signature dishes. The food wasn't bad, it just wasn't as great as I remember it"
