601 Queen's Rd in Merton

Came for Mother day with my wife and our two mums. Food was generally very good except for the Yorkshire pudding and taking over an hour to get our food. Strangest thing though was the Mother Days 2 course menu special. We tried to order it to be told it was only for Mothers so I (as the only male in the party) couldn’t and yet my wife could (who funnily enough is not a mother either). It didn’t say on the specials menu this was only for Mothers, just that it was special for Mother’s Day. That they would have allowed my wife to order this when she isn’t a mother means this was straight out a sexist rule which doesn’t make any sense. Reminds me of the scene from Afterlife when Ricky Gervais tried to order a kids portion to be told he couldn’t. This was almost as funny as the waitress tried to defend this position. Luckily enough the Apple pie had run out anyway so I didn’t really care in the end. However this is just bad business. To top it off in the toilet there was a sign that mothers got a free glass of bubbly but our mothers weren’t offered that either. Very strange business behaviour from what is a really nice location and has lots of potential. Tip for business: don’t discriminate who can partake in offers as this just leaves a bad taste no matter how good your food might be.

Arrived there today before lunch with a friend and my baby in the pram to be told that the lift is out of order and prams are not allowed on the balcony and baby needs to sit in a high chair which is fine by me but still they refused to let us in despite the area being completely empty. I found this to be very discriminatory and out of order !

This has the potential to be a really lovely bar. The interior is fantastic and the balcony is gorgeous, especially of a summer time. However, the servers think they work in a Michelin star restaurant and turn their noses up if you don’t look a certain way - as an example i came straight after a class at third space (which i pay over £200 a month to go to) but given i was in my gym kit they assumed i couldn’t afford to be there, so i went elsewhere. In addition, another time i went there bugs bunny took away my wine cooler, turner off the music and was rude about the ice in my wine all way before closing (>30 minutes). Do not recommend. Spoons, oy bar, alexandra, fire stables, fox and hound, hemmingways or berties bar are all better options

We had a lovely lunch - my friend had the pie and I had the gnocchi, both well presented and very tasty! Service is good but a little slow. Very nice setting. The main down side I found is that it gets very hot under glass roof if it's a little sunny outside. Otherwise great overall, will come back.

Marta made our time here so special. She was amazing, and gave the best recommendations. We came to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday, and she made the whole experience with her positive energy. We will be back because of her ☺️

I came here for a work lunch, lovely food! Best pie I've ever tasted! Can't wait to go back later to try their chicken.

We visited for the first time on Saturday (8th) afternoon as we wanted to have something to eat, drink and chat the day way. The food was fab, but what really made our experience fab was Marta. Her energy, attitude, professionalism and her personality really made a huge difference. She was very friendly and we had a little chat, she smiled, she was welcoming and nothing was a problem for her, she was one step ahead of us. She really is asset to this place and we will defo visit again.

Starters were really good, lovely outdoor terrace. Service was really good too!

Best resto bad in Wimbledon so far! But honestly the place is really really nice, ambience is great and food is so tasty and delicious!!! I definitely recommend this

A bit noisy acoustics, food was cold, but got swapped drinks were good service was great

Lovely bar, nice interior, pretty big place so very relaxing. Lots of different areas to sit on comfy chairs and sofas. Quick and friendly service, the bar staff even brought our drinks over.

What an absolute gem of a place! My family and I had the pleasure of visiting 601 in Wimbledon today, and we were incredibly fortunate to be looked after by Mateusz. Deciding on drinks proved to be quite the challenge, but Mateusz, with endless patience and genuine enthusiasm, took the time to ask about our preferences and expertly guided us to choices we absolutely loved. His customer service is nothing short of exceptional, knowledgeable, effortless, and delivered with just the right touch of charm. His wit and warm smile made us feel as if we were visiting an old friend rather than dining out. A special mention also to the lovely manager and the delightful young lady at the entrance. Both wonderfully welcoming, attentive, and radiating positivity. It’s people like them who truly make a place special. Bravo to the team, and an extra round of applause for Mateusz. He is a real credit to 601. We’ll most certainly be back soon! Visit : 12.00 9 Feb 2025

Walked in to get a drink as train was cancelled at 7.15pm tonight place was very empty was told bookings only in a curt manor Bit rude only wanted one drink will not return

Outstanding restaurant! Very cordial and friendly staff. Ask for Matt as a server and you will be delighted you did! He is excellent with his service, suggestions ( food and drink ), and knowledge. Will be back on our next visit for sure.

had such a lovely meal, Julia out waitress was super helpful and so friendly

Walked in to get a drink, with one man wearing glasses serving at the bar. Male already ordering and paying at the bar, stood for a few minutes and not acknowledged. Someone else came up to the bar and was served before us with no apology or acknowledgment. Walked straight back out 👍🏻

We had the most wonderful experience in 601 queens road, why? Because of the staff. The beautiful people that served us were SO warm, kind and personable. It honestly made a huge difference. Thank you so much. I would always feel comfortable going back there because of the staff xxxxx

Music for NYE event wasnt that good.

I love coming to 601 and have been many many times. The food has always been faultless, the staff are helpful without being over-attentive and the atmosphere is always calm. It’s a great place to bring little ones too as there’s lots of space and some larger tables.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to Ellie and to Matt who looked after us so well on Tuesday! There were 20 of us - we had a great evening and felt like we had a dedicated team making sure everything was perfect for us. Food, service and atmosphere were all great

Very rude staff. Asked to move twice when I left my girlfriend to go get drinks she was asked by staff to move over to the corner. I complained. Nothing but rudeness from a scruffy young man with a chain and a radio. Disappointed had high hopes.

Very noisy, service average. Some of the food was good but others not so much

Very nice staff, the girl from Latvia, so helpful and very welcoming! 👌

Had a lovely evening, food was great and staff are so accommodating, especially Nicole she was amazing and really looked after us. Will defo be back! Thanks guys

Had tea and coffee, which were good. Service can improve.

Great place to relax and have a beer

We celebrated our good friend’s bday tonight and the staff, food and everything! Nicole was our server and was amazing! Thank you so much!

Absolutely terrible service. Upon arriving at the restaurant, we weren’t greeted by anyone and had to find our own seats. We managed to flag down someone to ask for the menu after a while even though there were staff walking around the restaurant - we were simply ignored by them. The food itself also took ages to arrive and when we asked our waiter to follow up on the food she seemed very annoyed by it. The only good thing was that the food was spot on and extremely delicious.

Mediocre service and poor quality food.

I came to have a bottomless brunch and catch up with close friends. Our waiter, Matt, was excellent and enhanced our entire experience. He was friendly and attentive and provided an excellent service. We will definitely be back and we will be requesting Matt again!

Staff all seem moody and stressed - I hope they’re being treated ok. Food took too long, was cold and not great flavour. Won’t be returning.

601 has gone elite with both service and food. It is a happy place to visit with a good variety of food and cocktails. Happy hour till 7pm so make a dash immediatly post work. Live music and dancedloor on weekends and the vibes at all time feel clean and happy.

So amazing in every way especially the ambience! Good was very flavourful. I gave 4 stars and not 5 only because their prawn and coconut curry (which was delicious!), came with 5 prawns and they could do with a slightly less meaty menu!

Awful service. I was unwell after eating the food. On a previous occasion my friend was unwell after eating the food. Fine for drinks but wouldn’t risk the food again.

Served Coffee Wimbledon Fantastic new artisanal coffee, juice and home cooked food. Great location, stunning design and layout. Great coffee and comfortable place to work, meet and eat. Well done Served!

We recently held a work function at 601 Queen's Road, and it was a fantastic experience! The venue offers a great space that’s perfect for our event, with plenty of room and a welcoming atmosphere. The personal service was outstanding—dedicated staff looked after our event throughout, taking drink orders and checking in to make sure everything was running smoothly. The selection of drinks was impressive, catering to all tastes in our group. Our only critique was that the bar service could occasionally be a bit slow. Nonetheless, we're definitely looking forward to hosting another event here in the near future. Highly recommended!

Lovely restaurant, great food, great service. Family/ child/baby friendly.

Great venue for our party, spacious food was great and Nicole and George were fantastic hosts thanks for a great evening x

The waiters where very sweet and polite, the breakfast was amazing and we enjoyed it so much

I have only been during the day recently for breakfast, lunch or coffee, tasty, bread portion massive, but a little but greasy, not sure what they put on it. During the day it is baby friendly, will be back to try in the evening!

Everything was great. Very nice vibe. I would say the only thing that stops me giving 5 stars is the incremental increase of music volume. It nears concert level and it's quite difficult to converse.

We had booked an after work social at 601 Queens Road, easy process and very good communication with the lead up to the booking. On the day. The onsite team had good energy and just enhanced our experience. An extra shout out to Nicole who was assigned to our section. Definitely would book again.

The social, night-time ambience on the outside terrace of 601 Queen's Road, Wimbledon, in good weather, was a perfect spot to enjoy a delicious Spicy Margherita cocktail or 2 last weekend. Good food & Attentive service.

Very poor service.. they don’t welcome you neither help to find a sit or whatever , they don’t even give you menus and you have shout or ask to get attention. Food is pricey yet below average, not tasty at all and we both didn’t feel well after. Drinks are expensive but okay. Atmosphere is very weird. Place has potential but management needs to invest in some trainings, lady who served us looked very unhappy. Won’t be back for sure.

If you’re there to splash the cash ( they don’t take cash but… you know) on high end drinks you will do just fine … wander in for a pint and prepared to be ignored

Popped in for brunch was greeted and served really quickly, food was good and the cortardo was even better. Special thanks to the staff today thank you very much 😊

Lovely bar, friendly staff. Good selection of champagne. Didn't try the food but plan to return soon. Great atmosphere.

Been there for multiple occasion, Great atmosphere, sometimes you meet some brats but what can you do is Wimbledon, that being said, loved the attentive service from the Asian guy (apologies I didn’t ask the name), we felt looked after.

I visit 601 Queens at least once a month. A couple of weeks ago I wanted to take our guests out for dinner and made a reservation for 6. When we arrived, security guy stopped us by raising his hand. He was talking on the phone when we arrived and he made us wait while he’s finishing his call. Then he rudely asked if we have a reservation. I told him that we have a reservation and said my name. He didn’t understand my name and asked it a couple of times which I patiently responded. His attitude was extremely rude as if he’s treating underage teenagers who are trying to gain access to a night club!! That made our guests extremely uncomfortable!! They even offered to find somewhere else.. Finally he let us in. When we got there I wanted to speak to the manager and I cannot remember his name but the guy told me that he’s the manager. He apologised for his colleague’s behaviour and told me he’s a nice guy in person which had nothing to do with the situation as he clearly didn’t know how to interact with customers!!! I returned to my table and while I was having my dinner, security guy came upstairs and he glanced at me as if he’d heard about my complaint!! The experience we had that night was very unpleasant and disappointing!! I am not sure if I’d ever go back again…

The service was excellent, we were visiting for a special occasion and our waiter and waitress Nicole and George were amazing, they were very helpful and very attentive with beautiful service, and the food was amazing, will be back !!!!!

Totally the absolute ridiculous bar ever!! Told, uncategorically, the bar, is closed outside....

I'm really in love with the banana daiquiri, excellent customer service.

Great place. Food and cocktail very average. Regarding service, there is a new lady that speaks Spanish she is great, the rest of staff service is substandard

Go to this place often, although it's expensive, great venue and good food. My food was warm, they did take the price off it off the bill. Also, we had 2 bottles of the same wine but they charged 2 separate prices for each one. One more expensive than the menu price.

Great bar and good service for drinks as did not eat here

The service is only good because of Tasha behind the bar. There are too many other staff pretending to wait on tables but she is the only one working really. That’s why I gave the bar a 5 star review. She needs help

One of my fav places in the area ! Thanks to Justin for his warm service

Julie was so amazing, food was super! Would definitely come back🥳

Amazing place with super friendly staff. Julie and Matt delivered oustanding customer service! I'll be back for sure!!!!!

Had an amazing evening made even more amazing by Julie's service! Will 100% return!

The place and the food were good, but the service wasn't. We arrived at 18:30 and our drinks came at 18:56 (the place wasn’t busy). Our food order was taken 15 minutes later and arrived quickly.

We had a lovely wedding anniversary dinner, the staff were great and attentive. The food and cocktails were great and reasonably priced.

Nice place to meet up with friends for a drink, but not a very good choice for food. Good location, very close to the train station, very good service, nice and relaxing atmosphere.

Was served by Ruz who was really lovely and the service was brilliant!

Nice place, service however is terrible. Joined some friends, asked for food menu, waited about 5 min for thr menu. After 15 min still no one bothered to take my order. Yet several staff had time to play on their phone surrounding the bar. An absolute disaster

Service was slow but there are some good simple food options.

Myself and the women in my family come to 601 Queens rd probably around once a month for the last 5 years. We have absolutely loved it, however recently it hasn’t been as amazing as it used to be. Myself and my mother came for brunch 2 weeks ago, the staff were rather glum, and the food was very bland. This past weekend myself and my fiancé decided to come to 601 for our anniversary. We requested some champagne, nuts and olives on the table upon arrival. This was nowhere to be seen. We were disappointed really, and I was slightly embarrassed as I spoke very high of 601 to my partner, and how much my family have enjoyed it the last 5 years or so. Moving on, the only thing I ate from 601 was the calamari (squid) and I have had terrible food poisoning for the last 2 days afterwards. My GP has since prescribed antibiotics. I’m so saddened to say I do not think myself and my loved ones will be returning unless management / chefs are shifted. By far, used to be my favourite place in London!

A beautiful spot in the heart of Wimbledon. The staff are great and the food is always nice. It’s an incredibly spacious venue with a nice view beneath you, especially if you sit outside on the large terrace. It’s a great place to visit if you’re just after drinks, a nice coffee with a small dish or even dinner with their all day menu. The only downside is the service can be a little slow however it’s not stopped me from revisiting again dna again. Dogs are welcome

The service was absolutely amazing! We wouldn't hesitate to book here again! A great night was had by all. Special thanks to the main person that was taking our orders, I can’t remember his name, but he was a polish chap and really looked after us.

We’ve just had lunch at your restaurant and wanted to say a HUGE thank you to Marta for making our stay so wonderful and personal from start to finish. She was so accommodating and friendly. She advised us where to sit outside and took us to a table in the shade as soon as one became available. She even brought out some sun cream do us as it was so hot! She recommended a delicious juice (Berry Boost) and a very tasty meal (the burrata salad) and also managed to sneak out a tiramisu for our friend whose birthday it was. I haven’t received such brilliant and personal service from any restaurant in a long time and I really hope she gets the recognition she deserves. Thanks so much Marta and 601!

The place is nice but SO overpriced. We paid £60 for 2 cocktails and 2 brunch items (the brioche and the eggs hollandaise). Add on mushroom was 2.5£ for one big mushroom only, the muffin was stale, … And the table wasn’t clean

I recommend for a few drinks, but wasn’t sure if it was the right atmosphere for a family sort of event or going out with some friends. Either felt strange but otherwise it was a good experience.

Drinks only- Lovely setting upstairs and great location but awful customer service. Waited and waited and waited for table service, then went to the bar...totally ignored, then finally asked if we could order a drink..to be told it was table service....waited again... restaurant and bar were empty and 2 staff just kept walking round but not actually doing anything! Eventually someone took our order (one overpriced bottle of prosecco)... subsequently had to go to the bar again to pay and was charged £5 for non existent service!!!...I went up to the bar with my friend intending to split the bill...when I asked, the waitress totally ignored me amd really couldnt have cared less. Personally I would never choose to go back... abysmal service.

I love the place, but I already feel bad about going there because a blonde, tattooed waitress, when she sees me, treats me badly and keeps talking about me to other waiters. I do not understand why. I've lived in London for 8 years and I'm always treated very well in places. I always tip people who serve me well. But this woman is uncomfortable with my presence. She's there to serve, and she won't laugh or talk bad about customers.

We wanted to do a bottomless brunch here and they wouldn’t let us because one of our party wasn’t drinking at our table. She wasn’t drinking because she was pregnant. This place used to be a favourite on a Friday night but really unsure if we will return.

While the food, drinks, staff were all nice we left a bit of a bad taste in our mouth because we booked a bottomless table but we have been charged in full price.

It has such an ambient feeling. That's due to the staff giving expert customer service. And the place has good feng shui The house burger and fries were decadent. The Hot Chocolate and pastries are the best I ever had

Used to be ok but seems like the management has changed. The price of the food was on an upper end (£20-30 per dish), the portion was tiny - the size of the rice for the curry made everyone laugh - but most importantly, the quality of food was a way par below. The curry was too watery without much flavour, the steak overcooked and too much salt on it. The only thing was done properly was a portion of chips. The serving staff weren’t too friendly either, very transactional. This has become a £40-50 per head with a drink restaurant but the quality of food and staff far below that grade. Such a shame it has become like this. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone I’m afraid.

Busy bar with fenced queuing area. Views over the grounds.

The lift was broken so we had to lug my friends pram up the stairs. They forgot my order and their apology was very insincere with an excuse that sounded like they were trying to blame me for ordering at a different time to my friends, however I had ordered first and my food didn’t get reordered until after they’d finished eating. One of my friends had to leave before I even got my food. Pretty poor service for the price. Wouldn’t recommend the full English breakfast the sausages were cremated

Lovely Venue and Lovely Staff...!! Would highly recommend this restaurant/bar.

Somehow, I posted a 1 star review before, not the case at all - love it here! 4 stars on food as it was slightly cold when it got to me, but still had a lovely time

Fabulous Venue. Ellie and her team where fantastic. Made organising and scheduling the event so easy. Thank you so much,

Wonderful customer service, great vibe and nice food!

601 Queens Road in Wimbledon is highly praised for its atmosphere and service. The venue is stylish with a circular bar under a moon roof, creating a high-end feel. It’s popular for brunch, cocktails, and Sunday roasts, and is known for being dog-friendly.

Stood at the bar for 15mins, didn't even get acknowledged. 4 staff more interested in washing glasses and chatting. Wouldn't waste your time.

This rooftop bar is the best bar I have ever been to. This place is amazing, anyone who is anyone must come here, request effy and julie

Great service great food and great atmosphere

Wow unbelievable service. Thank you ever so much Julie and George. Such fantastic customer attention.

Nicole is the best hostess, we enjoyed the drinks on the bottomless evening thank you for a great night!!

This place is a lovely venue though pricey. However the lady working the bar needs to change jobs. No interaction, leaves you standing for ages to the point we left. Just plain rude sadly.

Great place to have a brunch. Good view and nice decoration. Food is okay

So disappointed. Having recommended to friends from South Africa

I visited this restaurant on Father's Day, hoping for a pleasant family meal, but unfortunately, it turned out to be quite a disappointment. Firstly, the staff didn't seem very welcoming. A smile can go a long way in creating a positive atmosphere, but the staff appeared uninterested and unfriendly. On the other hand, the manager was pleasant, which was a small consolation amidst the overall poor service. The biggest issue was the food. Our pancakes arrived cold, which was very disappointing. This forced us to eat at separate times as we waited for them to be reheated. Additionally, I ordered a poached egg twice, and both times it was overcooked, which was frustrating. Overall, the experience was far from what we had hoped for on a special day. Improvements in both service and food quality are desperately needed.

Great food and drink, served by professional, efficient and friendly staff. Loved it.

The best vegetarian breakfast bursting with flavour.Great service in lovely airy surroundings.Clean toilets with gorgeous handcream and soap.

Huge thanks to Nicole! She welcomed us and our dog Eddie like family 😊 whilst we had drinks on the terrace, we will definitely come back to see her again!

Thanks, Marta and Mateusz! Amazing place right in the center of Wimbledon. We loved the drinks made to a very high standard, and especially appreciated the warm welcome from Marta and Mateusz. We've never felt so well taken care of. Thanks to them, this is definitely going to be our local spot from now on.

It's ok. Nice staff. But you don't get the Finnish you would expect for the price .

Lovely food, cocktails and ambience, but more importantly brilliant staff and service. Working in hospitality is by no means easy, that makes people who have the heart for customer service so precious. Ace to Marta and Matt 👍🏻.
