Scoff Banter Bloomsbury

Very warm welcome staff and super tasty a bite Yorkshire pudding with beef and mash for beginners. I ordered lamb chop with pommes Anna, a very beautiful combination. It is a good place for lunch and drinking.

Great place to meet and chat. Nice service, but they all took too long to give us water. Very apologetic when they noticed. Burger was delicious. Nice wine. Great location. Near the British Museum and just minutes from TCR.

Nice food, cooked nicely. Had steak and chips and steak was nicely cooked with good seasoning. Got mine on a plate but not keen on chopping board serving dishes that the burger and fish chips were served on. Friendly staff and nice wine.

I'll just say that once. That was the best burger I ever had. If I met people tonight, I'd come back and have another one tonight. I should have taken a picture, but it wouldn't show you how good the burger was. I'm a happy, burger rich traveler.

The food was good, the service was excellent until they gave us our drinks. They accused us twice to say to remove it from the bill! In addition, the overall experience was really good. Win us a birthday cake for my friend's birthday free nice touch!

Stopped at the bar for a Prosecco glass. I wasn 't even seated at the table. Just I asked for a glass while standing up. I received a fraction of a glass and paid £8.25 for that plus 12.5 service charge! I have similar glasses at home, I think I received 70 ml or even less. Added to my personal avoid-list .

Decent food, good service. We had the Yorkshire Pudding, Tomato soup and Sirloin steak. The soup and pudding were great, the steak was Well Done when we asked for Medium, and the taste was unremarkable. We told the staff about it, got a polite response but not much else. All dishes were well presented and other than the steak failure the service was very attentive and courteous. Bottom line nice place for dinner.

We really enjoyed our afternoon tea at Scoff Banter. We didn't have a long time in London and went on a whim. As a vegetarian, we had to make a special request for our tea service and the boss was happy to commit. They served us not only delicious food, but it was also so plentiful that we had to bring it back to our hotel in Paris, what they liked our surprise. Besides the quality of the food, the staff was very friendly, courteous and attentive. In particular, a younger Indian man was very committed. Our only complaint about this fantastic experience is that the establishment was far too modern and red for our taste. It takes more blue to balance things!

Presentation of the food and decor give the guise of London fine dining, but the reality is nothing more than under seasoned, over priced and unwelcome. Service is painfully slow. We came in during a quiet Thursday lunch sitting, we must have been 1 of 4 tables they had at the time. The drinks order took 10 minutes to arrive, and one of our party even had to ask 3 times for his drink that didn’t arrive in with the original order. We ordered mains only, yet it took 55 minutes for them to arrive for a table of 6. I could forgive all this if the food stood up to the test, but unfortunately it was lacking in substance and seasoning. The presentation is pretty, I wish as much care went into actua...
