“As a professional in the restaurant industry, I was truly impressed by the high standard of both the food and service at The Lampery. The dishes were expertly crafted, showcasing an evident passion and meticulous attention to detail. The staff was not only friendly and welcoming but also highly professional, ensuring a seamless dining experience. I highly recommend The Lampery for anyone looking for an outstanding meal in London. If you’re seeking a comparable dining experience in Italy, I invite you to visit our restaurant La Cort Cucina e Vino in Riva del Garda, where we take pride in offering the same commitment and passion for exceptional hospitality. Come professionista nel settore della ristorazione, sono rimasto molto colpito dall’elevato livello del cibo e del servizio presso The Lampery. I piatti erano realizzati con maestria, trasmettendo passione e un’attenzione ai dettagli evidente. Il personale è stato non solo cordiale e accogliente, ma anche altamente professionale, garantendo un’esperienza culinaria impeccabile. Consiglio vivamente The Lampery a chiunque cerchi un pasto eccellente a Londra. Se desiderate un’esperienza simile in Italia, vi invito a visitare il nostro ristorante La Cort Cucina e Vino a Riva del Garda, dove mettiamo la stessa passione e impegno nel servire i nostri ospiti.”

For a start the steak came out followed by the sides around 5 to 10 minutes later and then the remaining sides another five minutes after so the steaks were very cold by the time we actually eat at them. The staff were very good but let down by the kitchen. Although we had complimentary drinks at the end of the meal to apologise, a mouse ran through the centre of the restaurant around the time we decided to leave.

Very slow service , staff seem as if in a daze . Waited 20 mins to have drink order taken - food order not taken at same time . Had to ask to order food after another 20 mins. When food arrived , the bacon had clearly been sitting around . Dried up and cold . Eggs ok , sausage ok . Cold toast . A very generic hotel breakfast , not the restaurant experience as advertised . Avoid - plenty lovely places at St Katherine’s Dock .

We attended the Lampery for an early dinner before seeing a theater show. We were staying at the hotel so just made sense to use the Hotels restaurant. The service was attentive & pleasant. The food was excellent & plentiful. We also used the Lampery for all inclusive breakfast which was also excellent. We will no doubt return for when staying at the hotel the next time.

I had the pleasure to dine at this restaurant over the weekend as recommended by a friend. Overall it has been a sensational experience. Food was delicious, and very well presented together with a very nice list of wines on the menu. Location curated with a beautifully decorated ceiling. Also, service was top notch, a special thanks goes to the wonderful Monica and Giacomo who served our table during the evening. Highly recommend!

This is a story of turning what could have been a bad experience into an excellent one. When we first arrived for breakfast, we sat for at least 10 minutes without anyone coming over to help us. We could see that the restaurant was understaffed. We got up and asked the manager, Robert, if someone could help us. He apologized and said that two servers had called in sick. He promptly and pleasantly took our order himself. The food came out quickly, again, delivered by Robert and it was excellent! Robert truly made this a 5-star experience all by his self. We so appreciated how he handled a tough situation that was not of his doing. He is a true professional that obviously takes pride in his level of service.

‘Exquisite’ it certainly is not. I came her partly because I need an early night and partly because there was a nice dessert on the menu online. Ordered fish and ‘chips with rosemary’. No rosemary, chips tasted like then been sitting around for some hours, batter soggy, and fish definitely not fresh. Service initially long face, but did perk up. Server asked how my meal was, and when I said the above there was no suggestion of reducing my bill. On to the yummy honey cheesecake… only the online menu is out of date! So no yummy dessert. Wish I’d walked to Flat Iron.

Dined here while on vacation. The restaurant itself is well decorated and kept. The menu was limited, not a good option for families. I had a salad, it was fresh, but small for an entree. My husband had the burger which he described as passable. Overall, the food did not live up to the atmosphere of the restaurant.

Staff seemingly unmanaged, and for all that hospitality relies on foreign workers they need to be trained enough to understand customers and to be understood. One guest got so fed up trying to communicate with staff he settled for black coffee. Food was ordinary in the extreme, eggs either overcooked or baked in the microwave, toast was cheap white slice barely browned and not buttered. The smoked salmon was the star of the plate but only when measured against such a poor breakfast. A place to avoid.

We were a table of 8 for brunch on a Saturday. The serving staff were very polite and friendly. The food was of a very high standard and nicely presented. I had fish and chips and it was a generous portion and cooked well. The restaurant wasn’t very full which meant there wasn’t a great ambiance but we could all hear each other speak! I would recommend The Lampery

Came here for their breakfast and it was very okay. Nothing spectacular as it is hotel food to say the least. Based on the reviews I thought it would be better. We had breakfast here on a Thursday morning. Hotel guest are seated in the nice patio area or wherever they choose. Non hotel guest like our selves were seated in this dark dinning area. Our waiter was very kind but the service was lacking. She was managing about 10 tables by her self so we rarely saw her. Never got any water or asked for a refill on our coffee or beverages. I dont blame Her as she was busy but whoever is in charge of staffing needs to fix this. You have about 8 people running food from the kitchen and only 1 waiter taking care of everyone makes no sense. Overall if I was lazy and didn’t want to go far for breakfast I would come here otherwise it’s nothing special. We ordered an English breakfast, the vegetarian English breakfast and the bacon bap.

10 minutes for someone to ask if we wanted anything more than water, and we had to then chase up the drinks. Food orders were finally taken 20 minutes later (but it wasn't overly busy) and the food arrived another 30 minutes later. Service was a shambles, certainly not able to cope with a City lunch and we only had one course!!! Food was average, Lampery Pie is basically mash potatoes with a couple of prawns at the bottom, and one side is presumably still in the kitchen somewhere...

My recent visit to The Lampery in London was really exceptional. From the moment I stepped in, I was embraced by a warm, sophisticated and inviting atmosphere that sets the stage for a memorable dining experience. The interior exudes a perfect blend of modern chic and historical charm, creating a sophisticated yet comfortable ambiance. The service at The Lampery is impeccable. Staff members are attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic about their roles. They provided personalized recommendations and were swift to accommodate every need, enhancing the overall dining experience with their courteous approach. The highlight, of course, was the food. Each dish was a testament to culinary artistry, combining bold flavors and fresh ingredients. The menu, a creative twist on British classics and mediterranean cuisine, delighted us from the first bite. Standout dishes which were both flavorful and cooked to perfection. A special mention for Scottish Scallops or Swordfish Ceviche ad starters, Duck Breast or Octopus as mains. Lovely Desserts to complete the experience. Overall, The Lampery is a must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in top-notch cuisine, premium service, and an enchanting atmosphere. It's a culinary jewel in London's vibrant dining scene that truly impresses on all fronts.

The service really let's this place down.

When asked why food was taking so long we were told "the chef is cooking for everyone". The restaurant was about 20% full.

It took forever once we were seated for a server to great us, then for our drinks to come out and again for our food. We finally asked about our food and they brought it out immediately, plates scorching hot so they were clearly just sitting on the expediting line while our server was clueless. The restaurant was almost empty so it was unacceptable.

Nice location, but for us honestly probably not the best for food / service. They seemed very confused that we weren't hotel guests just there for the buffet, stuck us in the back somewhere and forgot to bring one of our diners her cappuccino (we just gave up in the end!). So it was fine (and definitely nice to try somewhere different, as was the first time not having been before), but we wouldn't rush back, or particularly recommend to others.

Food was ok, nothing surprisingly different. Pity that for people not staying at the hotel we didn’t have a menu a la carte and had to take the same breakfast buffet as the ones staying at hotel.

Our Christmas Menu to Apex Hotel London, The Lampery Restaurant at a fully pre paid cost of £180, was not submitted to the kitchen from the point of reservation which we had made with Charlotte, prior to our arrival at the hotel. On raising our first complaint with the waitress at The Lampery we were advised Charlotte had not submitted the order to the restaurant kitchen despite promising she had submitted our pre-paid order to the kitchen. In response, the waitress gave my husband and I one glass of wine which she referred to as "Bribery Drinks". The waitress expressed she was unsure if our menu choices were available in the kitchen given our order was not received in advance by the kitchen. The Lampery Restaurant Floor Manager was so NONE PRESENT/ no where to be seen at this point of failure!! The second complaint is where the second course was delivered to the table whilst we were still eating the first course. The waitress explanation for this was, she did not want the second course to go cold in the kitchen and to make a fresh second course would take too long. The third complaint is, the fire alarm test went off direectly from the fire alarm point which was located directy in the centre of the dining room where guests were eating, and this fire drill was without any pre-warning from the staff who set the alarm off right in front of our faces. The fourth complaint is, once the second course had been eaten, for what was a fully pre-paid 3 course Christmas meal, it actually became a 2 course meal. We were the only guests in the restaurant at this point and we were left abandoned in the restaurant by both the waiters and manager. We were waiting for the third and final pre-paid course which was desert, which after 40 minutes of waiting, never turned up! We therefore requested a waiter to check what had happened to our desert which had been pre-ordered. His response came back as "he did not know, he tried to ask", He then added, the desert ticket must have got lost". This is the fith complaint. La-Toya's response to explain this away was, the kitchen must be preparing for the dinner seating - its done about one hour in advance So that tells me, if you are still eating lunch at 17:00pm then you will be abandoned and may have to wait up to one hour for your desert. At which point, I demanded we spoke to the manager but imstead we were sent over some inexperienced and random person who had no presence at all!! I therefore sent him away. When the manager eventually surfaced, we gave each other eye contact but instead he tried the "distancing and delay tactic" and chose to start filling up wine glasses at a table for guests who hadn't even asked/ waved for his attention!! This is the sixth complaint of poor customer service/ experience. Eventually, when I secured the manager's attention (who gave us his name as being Michael), he started to interrupt my husband who was trying to explain the nature of our complaint. The manager claimed to know all about the complaint already, yet despite him claiming to know of our original complaint of the errors made with the restaurant booking - the manager was clearly unprepared, dismissive and unapologetic for his failure to look after us following the origimal complaint made with Charlotte who works within the Customer Experience team. The is the seventh poor outcome. Micheal the restaurant manager, rather than attempting to provide resolution, he attempted to provide his resume which he tried to convince us, he had been a manager at The Shard Restaurant - but he only demonstrated very poor management. The manager simply walked away saying he would do something as he would be aroumd until 04:00am. However, he said he did not know what he would do to rectify. He then digressed by repeatedly saying, "it's Christmas' - well who doesn't know that it's Christmas?? That's why we had a Christmas menu right in front of our noses on the dining table - but being Christmas is not the resolution to a customer complaint and shoddy restaurant management! The manager then used one of his waitresses La-Toya, to chase us down the reception area with the bill to pay for the lunch, but we brought that back to her and the managers attention based on the managers promise to sort out our complaint - at this point I despair!!! The Lampery restaurant waitresses and manager have no professionalism, they lack class and training is almost VOID. They are not qualified to carry out their jobs and it was a Micky Mouse performance! With ZERO recognition of the Customer - the table next to us also demanded to speak to the manager with a complaint about slow service and no water or drinks provided to his table to accompany the meal he was having with his family. The manager once again appeared to apply delay tactics, taking up to 20 minutes to attend to that table to address that complaint. All these failings have occurred under the UNWATCHFUL EYE, of Micheal The Lampery Restaurant Manager, though purportedly he had previously worked as Restaurant Manager for The Shard and Manchester United Football club. The poor performance of The Lampery Restaurant staff and is a direct reflection of the incompetent Restaurant Manager who gave his name as Micheal.

Wir wurden die ersten 25 min nicht beachtet und hatten noch keine Getränke bestellen können. Alle anderen Tische wurden bedient, bekamen ihre Getränke und teilweise schon ihre Vorspeise. Das empfanden wir als sehr unangenehm, da wir uns auf den Abend sehr gefreut hatten. Leider kamen dann zwei Gerichte (Sorbe und Hauptgang) fast gleichzeitig, so dass wir unser Sorbe nicht wirklich genießen konnten und eher zum Hauptgang gegangen sind. Zum Schluss brachte man uns die Rechnung und der Kaffee/ Tee war mit aufgeführt, obwohl diese im Menü mit enthalten waren. Die Rechnung wurde seitens des Lampert korrigiert. Das Essen war sehr lecker und das Ambiente hat uns ebenfalls sehr gut gefallen. Aber die Art und Weise, wie wir bedient wurden, haben wir als nicht gut empfunden. Wirklich sehr schade.

On arrival, the staff who eventually came over was wholly disinterested. After showing us to our table, it took several attempts to get the festive menu, the drinks menu then order drinks. The majority of the mains on the kids menu were unavailable. My wife and I were the only people having starters and were asked if we wanted these with everyone else’s mains. We agreed. It didn’t happen. We chased and were the mains were just coming. They didn’t for another 15 minutes. After the issue with the kids mains, I checked that the sundae on the kids dessert menu was available and was told it was. It turned out to be a few scoops of ice cream. I send it back. There were more staff than tables but getting anyone’s attention was very difficult. I ended up speaking to the manager who was very apologetic and removed service from the bill. What we had hoped to be a special pre-Christmas meal was impacted by a poor restaurant experience.

We booked a table for a pre theatre lunch. After being seated we were not given a copy of the set menu so I had to ask for it. The starter of salt and pepper squid was nice. My main was fish and chips with rosemary fries and minted peas. When it came the fries had seen no rosemary nor had the peas seen any mint. My friend's sea bass came as a fillet in sauce, there were no sides available on the set menu so the waiter arranged for a sliver of spinach on her plate. As the service had been quite slow we had to cancel our dessert order to get to the theatre on time. We did complain to a waiter but no-one came to discuss our complaint. Quite a chilly environment to eat in, may be nicer in summer. Wish I'd checked the reviews before booking, would certainly not recommend this establishment.

Have been to this restaurant a number of times recently for business lunches. The food has always been really good. However the service has also been very slow, ordering food fine, its the wait for the food that takes ages. And on this occasion even slower. They did without asking add a 20% discount, but I'd rather pay full price and get a meal on time. Such a shame. If the service picks up then would easily get 5 starts. Please get the kitchen operating faster.

The Lampery is one of my favourite places in the City for a business lunch, drink or coffee. On this occasion, it was a disappointing experience. Service was amateurish, a pate starter came with no bread, card machine printed blank receipts. I will give it another try to see if this was just an off day, but the service really needs addressing.

Great service and food was nice. The restaurant is beautiful but they have a very bright, very distracting LED advertising sign in the solarium that is exceptionally unnecessary and distracting for such a beautiful space.

A real shame. As it was a client lunch i did not remove the service charge as didn't want a fuss but if this has been a private meal, i would have complained.

Poor service, brought out 2 of the four man in courses whilst we waited 15 minutes for the other 2 plates. When they finally arrived with the other two mains the sides that had been order were nowhere to be seen. They hadn’t fired the sides so we then had to wait even longer by which point everything was cold. Half the staff just smiled blankly the other half didn’t give a monkeys

Regrettably there was a big delay between our starters and mains. The mains when they came were cold.

Excellent service and dish recommendations from the staff. Delicious food, beautifully presented. Was quiet when we first arrived but got busier later on.

Lovely venue, good service. Food was lovely except for the portion sizes which were on the small side. Good wine list.

My colleague (having dined at the Lampery the previous week) said the food was very different. Also - a table booked for 12.30 and our main courses were not served until 2.10. The restaurant was not overly busy.

Waited 45 minutes to get the first and second course. I had booked a table for work colleagues and they had a very disappointing night so it’s not a venue I will be booking again.

Great steaks, shame about the dry fish pie! Service was ok, but one rude restaurant worker dampened the experience a bit. The decor of the restaurant is great.

The service was slow and disappointing, waited 50 minutes for a cooked breakfast that was cold and when we complained the waiter did nothing! We were not the only ones either as at least 3 people cancelled there order because of how long it took to turn up - you get better breakfast at a premire in

We (father and daughter) had our table at 7pm and it was a very calm evening. Really nice and friendly service. The Fish and chips was good. The kid’s burger was not more than average. (Pre fab patty).

We ate in the restaurant one night for dinner. There were 4 of us. The food was lovely but the service not so great. Initially there was a mistake with our drinks order which was quickly rectified. We then ordered starters and mains. When the mains came they only brought out 2 sides of chips instead of 4. They said the other 2 sides of chips would be a minute or two, however it soon became clear they had forgot to cook them as we waited 4/5 minutes before they arrived by which time our steaks were only warm. We also had to ask for water for the table 3 times. Looking at other reviews I think we were just unlucky and the waiter was having a bad day. We couldn’t fault the food. The waiter adjusted the bill and didn’t charge us for the chips or our first drink as way of apology.

Beware of the £25GDB 3-course set menu advertised on the web menu for the restaurant because it was not honoured when we asked for it. We were given the excuse that we needed to pre-book online but there is nothing about that on their website. We suggested to the waiter to take the offer off their website if it doesn’t exist. I didn’t get the impression that this was going to occur. Food was okay and service was fine. The dishes entail relatively small portions. They charge for still water. There were only a few people in the restaurant on a Friday night. Their bait and switch tactic when it comes to offering a set menu is not going to help business.

This restaurant is very stylish and has luxurious seating, while offering window side views of London with peacefulness. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, giving me a table of my choice and even maintaining happiness when I asked them any questions! I enjoyed battered prawns with watercress salad and this was priced fine for how much it filled me up, also the ginger beer wasn't overly expensive either!

Lovey setting with high ceilings, sunshine through the large windows and greenery hanging from the ceilings. Staff friendly and a nice continental spread. Unfortunately the staff don’t seem to communicate and we had at least four different people dealing with us. We ordered hot food and, having seen others who arrived after us getting theres, enquired after ours. Half an hour after ordering we received our eggs Benedict and eggs with avocado but both of us had one solid, overcooked poached egg. I complained and they bought another set but both still over cooked. Very disappointing.

I had afternoon tea with a friend and was disappointed . Not worth the money. I asked for strong tea twice and was given one tea bag separately for a large pot of tea. The sandwiches and cakes were pedestrian. Certainly not worth the money. Overall experience - awful.

Turkish restaurant We came for dinner without a reservation, and it is preferable to book in advance He reviewed the waiting list and found a space in it and entered The food is delicious 😋, delicious and in large quantities There are 5 of us. I asked about a mixed shawarma plate He told us one was enough and I asked for two. In fact, one plate is enough for 5 people because it is a large plate Great lentil soup, no mistake, grilled in the head The appetizers are pretty good. The price ranges from medium to expensive, and as usual for the Turks, there must be a commission. The withdrawal machine offers you and it has options for the amount of the tip. This is the first time I see this machine.

Always enjoy coming here, lovely breakfast very professional and friendly staff and great atmosphere. Can get busy so worth booking, but I was able to get a table as a walk in.

Tried ringing to make a reservation for Friday evening and the phone just rang out with no answerphone. Turned up at the restaurant and it was all shuttered up with no notice indicating prolonged Xmas holidays or anything. Presumed closed for business.
