CheckMate Piano Bar Restaurant

Not busy so no need to book. part Thai menu which was very tasty. Excellent staff service and nice to be able to sit in the lounge area after with a coffee.

If you're looking for great service, look elsewhere. My experience at this restaurant was awful. It took 25 minutes for two sandwiches to be served, and then we had to send them back because they were cold.

My second visit to this restaurant and planning to go again. Delicious food. The best Thai I have tasted in London. Very pleasant service and a good atmosphere. Pianist was good. Very reasonably priced. Good portions. View menu

The chef at this restaurant is Thai and the menu offers a delicious combination of British and Thai cuisine. However, the difficulty in reading the drinks menu was an unnecessary annoyance. It seems that the menu should have been tested before being printed.

We arrived for an early evening meal and were warmly welcomed. We were impressed with the variety of options on the menu. We were also happy to discover that it was Happy Hour, making drinks very affordable. The service was polite and fast, and everyone in our group enjoyed their meals. We would recommend this restaurant.

I stayed recently whilst on business in London and ate here. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Food had a good selection and I chose the mozzarella chicken which was nice. Drinks are expensive at over ten pounds for a glass of wine. I was about to return to my room, being female I’m not too comfortable sitting in a bar by myself, however the pianist began to play and it was so lovely it completely relaxed me so I stayed longer. Unfortunately the hotel also attracts tourists and there were some obnoxious Canadians in the bar heckling people for not clapping enough?? So I returned to my room. View menu

We booked a table for two on a Sunday bank holiday evening, it was really quiet with just two other tables being use, having said that there was a nice feel to the dining area. We asked about a taster menu advertised on the web site but were told it wasn't available,our 2nd choice was Thai so that was OK. My wife had scallops and I had chicken skewers followed by King prawn and glass noodles and green curry with prawns both good serving and very tasty. Also advertised two for one cocktails which were OK for one round but they had ran out of the making of a second, and had limited making for other cocktails that some friends who joined us had asked for......they could do with stocking up if t...

Popped into the bar as they were advertising cocktails and gin. The cocktails we ordered were 2 for 1 up to 9 pm. When the waiter asked if we would like another we realised it was a few minutes after 9. Asked if happy hour still applied and was told no. Wondering why he waited until just after 9 when our glasses had been empty for a short while.... Anyway, we decided to order from their gin menu instead. Our first choice was unavailable so made our second choice and asked for doubles. After 10 minutes the waiter reappeared to say they only had enough of our second choice for singles. He said they were having a delivery the following day. The next day we thought we would pop in again. Asked f...

I had booked a table for 3 people for 9pm. In a footnote I did inform the Resturant that we could be delayed due to the face we were attending the Service of remembrance at the RAH. We were running late by 40 minutes, but as the booking site claimed you could make a reservation up until 23.30hrs we thought we would be okay. Sadly note We arrived to be greeted by a very abrupt waitress saying that we were late, and claimed to have tried to call us twice on my mobile number.A lie as there was no record of any phonically to my number. We were told that the kitchen closes at 22.00hrs. Pointing out it was 21.45 we still had time. She would check with the chef! As she did so a table of 10 people a... View menu
