"I requested a spot at the counter bar since I was alone and heading to the theatre . No sooner was I seated than the bar man abruptly asked me what I wanted to drink no “welcome, how are you tonight” . He seemed a bit miffed when I asked to see the cocktail list, as though I should know instantly what I wanted. And, although a prix-fixe, pre-theatre menu is advertised online, only the regular a la carte menu was handed to me. So I had to ask for that, as well! As it turned out, I ordered an expensive a la carte main dish, since it appealed to me. During my meal, no one ever topped up my sparkling water the bottle stood in plain sight and the barman/waiter watched me refill my glass. And, when I’d finished my cocktail, no one asked if I’d like a glass of wine although I sat there looking at the page of wines by the glass . By then, although I did want wine, I was too fed up with the rudeness to order one. It was only after I asked for my bill that a waiter asked if I’d like dessert or coffee! Obviously, I didn’t. But I just smiled politely and said I had to go. No one thanked me for coming or wished me a pleasant evening. Yes, the place is packed being right by the Ritz Hotel is very beneficial . And the ambiance is suave and clubby. But the waitstaff is basically disaffected although they do act unctuously polite to regulars . I’ve actually been coming to Le Caprice for many years, but usually sit with friends at a table. Hmm— what a difference!"

Le Caprice never lets me down. The staff at the bar and the restaurant are top notch. They have been able to survive all these years because they actually are good, and so is the food.

This is my favorite place to dine alone in London. The bar counter is always buzzing with activity and a friendly crowd. There is a great mix of locals and tourists. The steak I had was fantastic. It's a great spot to have a drink and meal when you're solo in London.

usually difficult to get a table short time, but we had practically the whole restaurant to ourselves around 19 clock on Thursday. this was due to the fact that the local hotel occupancy rates were strongly depressed and the people of home working due to covid 19. this empty, there was atmosphere missing but service excellent. good choice of all courses and I especially enjoyed the Oktopus starter. grilled cod main course cooked to perfection with large damp flocks of fish. criminality brûlée with rhabarb and coffee finish. a good choice of crying, but the brandup is exaggerated.
