Brumus - Haymarket Hotel in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Booked a table for pre-theatre drinks at BRUMUS on Tuesday evening and Chris worked his cocktail-making magic. Thanks to the team for getting our evening off to a great start.

Lovely spot for afternoon tea and good value

If you want to watch a musical in the evening, it's very convenient to dine opposite. The food is good and the interior of the restaurant is great. The service is cordial.

Lovely bar. They made an outstanding off the menu vespa martini without hesitation and with expert skill.

Excellent pre-theatre meal. Great value for such good food and our waiter was so attentive without being intrusive. Added bonus of a small jazz band playing exactly the kind of music we enjoy!

Great place for traditional Scottish food and drinks! Our server Mel was kind and very helpful. I’d go there again.

this is what they call humus in birmingham

Always a joy to dine here. My som used to perform at Her Majesty’s Theatre across the road from Brumus with his performing arts school. So we used to saunter over for much needed nourishment!

Lovely lunchtime meal. Airy and light with quick service.

Fantastic, the Jazz trio on Thursday evening are great & so versatile that they took requests. Food & service 1st class. Thanks so much

A lovely restaurant with an outstanding value set menu early in the evening. Service was delightful and food tasty.

Wonderful food and wonderful staff - a pleasure as always to visit Brums. We enjoyed the set menu and had wonderful starters, farmhouse terrine and plum tomato soup. Then we both enjoyed fish and chips, with a bottle of Sauvignon. This is such a precious place to eat, such a wonderful location, beautiful interior with lovely staff. A bit of a ‘hidden gem’ that probably deserves more love (and patrons) that it gets. Highly recommended.

I booked an afternoon tea for a special occasion. The service was friendly but very slow. After being seated the next time I saw the waitress was 40minutes later. The afternoon tea was ok. The tea itself was excellent but the sandwiches were dry and the scones were not fresh.

My boyfriend and myself went for drinks at Brumus Bar today evening. It was our first experience there, even though we didn't have a reservation the staffs were extremely welcoming and pleasant. Aimee was our waitress and she served us very professionally, attentively and with a charming smile throughout the end. She even recommended some cocktails which was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed the evening at its best. 100% recommended. Must visit and have a very good time.

The service was slower than you can believe. Really. We came to this beautiful restaurant in Haymarket an hour before a Saturday matinee. We ordered salad and soup and told our waiter we were seeing a matinee. Nothing. We nudged him again. More nothing. 40 minutes later we got our meal. Seriously: what were they doing? How on earth can a bowl of soup and a salad take 40 minutes? Including us, there were four tables occupied; 11 customers. Food was actually good, but no meal is worth sitting like a chump, worried you're going to miss the play. (We made it with all of three minutes to spare).

We booked this at 6pm thinking it would be ideal before a theatre show nearby at 7.30 pm. The staff knew we were going to the theatre and our first courses came fairly quickly but by 7pm our main courses had still not arrived. We asked twice what had happened. The first time the waiter never came back and the second we were told that they were very busy that night, and the food finally came out at about 7.05 after we were ready to leave after there was no reassurance that our food was actually coming. I had ordered mussels and didn't have time to finish them. It was not the relaxed dinner that we had hoped for. Communication was really lacking and no one apologised properly to us. We noticed that couple at the table next to us were similarly inconvenienced. We have been to Brumus before and found it to be a lovely venue and the staff seemed very professional but when something went wrong they weren't able to address the situation properly. The food was good but overall it was disappointing and I wouldn't risk going there again before the theatre.

My wife booked a table there to have a dinner before The Phantom on the Opera. We have selected a set menu (2 course for £22pp). It's quite obvious, that if you have selected a set menu, that shouldn't takes long to cook it as the most of items are ready. We have spent 1 hour and 30 minutes there. Which is quite fair time. However, we have ordered 2 glasses of Chablis (very expensive white wine), that was so warm. Cesar salad was served like some one chopped wherever it was available and added £1 Tesco sauce on the top. Second meal we were waiting for 40 minutes!!! Seriously!!! That is not good timing for set menu. We have chaise our second meal several times. As the result, we have had our second meal overcooked (they kept it too long into heater or re-heat this one several times), mash potato was cold, fish too dry. They even haven't offer a tap water. I've ordered the second glass of wine and they couldn't serve it for 15 minutes!!! Very bad management and timing. All of this happened on our Wedding anniversary day (we are married for 25 years) and that evening supposed to me something very special. So, avoid that place if you don't want to be disappointed. Oh, the guest taken they desserts in a box, as the kitchen couldn't serve them on time as well. Manager offers me a special treat if we came back there again. No f......g way I'll return to that place even for free of charge!!!

Food mediocre..our ceasar salad hardly any dressing & the raviloa also dry .. wine selection extremely pricey ,however nice suroundings but not value for money.

Had a wonderful lunch here with great food & ambience. What made it even better was the fantastic service by Francesco & Hadrian. Friendly, very professional & efficient with nothing being too much trouble. Was lucky to be there for day 1 of a new fixed price 2 course menu deal with some great selections. Many thanks!!!!

I came here last year august, they stayed open just for me and my girlfriend after we came from the opera. This older Australian waiter helped us even tho they wanted to close, everything was perfect. Thank you!

Spent £85 for 2 people on a 2 course meal which was the most boring meal out in a while. The tortellini and the soup would have been nicer had they come from a nice supermarket as a ready meal. The atmosphere was also not nice and the staff mostly seemed like they didn’t want to be there and we were a bit of an inconvenience to them. I was sat on a bench which had its back to a service station which they kept slamming, sending shock waves through the bench each time. We won’t be going back.

I received the best service and hospitality. The prices are reasonable and the food is very delicious.

Nice breakfast in a pleasant atmosphere. Excellent service from Hadrian and his colleagues. Thank you 😀

All perfect! Food, service, Ambiente - perfect! I would definitely come back!

Such a lovely spot. We went there for breakfast. Delicious, great quality atmosphere and friendly staff. Good value for money. Will come back!

Good food at reasonable prices and great service. Would recommend for a pre-theatre meal

Popped in without reservation before my visit to the National Portrait Gallery. Waitress and host were very friendly and polite. Restaurant has a nice atmosphere. I had lunch alone, but did not feel uncomfortable. Service was excellent. Although coffee was delicious I would rate Caesar salad as mediocre, however portion is very generous size. All in all would come back and recommend.

We visited prior to going the His majesty’s theatre which is directly opposite and choose from the pre-theatre set menu. We had the Caesar salad and ham starters and both had the sirloin steak which were all excellent. Staff were very pleasant and attentive. We’ll definitely be coming back.

Excellent restaurant with impeccable service. See the photos of the hotel (Haymarket Hotel) which looks superb and which the super friendly staff showed us around

Fantastic Experience I recently dined at Haymarket in the heart of London and was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of my experience. From the delicious food to the attentive staff and impeccable service, everything exceeded my expectations. The quality of the food was exceptional, and each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was memorable. I highly recommend Haymarket to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience in London. It's hard to believe that in such a stunning restaurant located in the center of London, you can enjoy a three-course dinner for under £30. Overall, my experience at Haymarket was outstanding, and I can't wait to return. Keep up the excellent work! Best regards, Laura

Tegenover her majesty’s theater genoten wij er van een pre theatre dinner. We namen de 2 gangen optie en vonden het lekker, snel, gezellig en goede prijs kwaliteit. Zeker aan te raden

I decided to take my Mum for a pre theatre meal here, as the pre theatre menu had good reviews. The decor and service was good but we were disappointed by our food. We both had sea bream as our main which was OK but we were surprised that the dessert was either victoria sponge cake, plum frangepane tart or chocolate fudge cake. We chose the chocolate fudge cake and the plum frangepane tart but the tart was still very chilled almost frozen and so we couldn’t eat it so we asked for the victoria sponge cake instead. The cakes were nothing special and we expected something a little more exciting than a slice of cake as the dessert option.

Went for the pre-theatre meal and it was lovely, good value and even with intolerance I could eat well. They had gluten free bread and the choices were good

Went for a pre-theatre meal which had lots of choice even with my intolerances and is good value at £22 for two courses. service was good until we asked for the bill which took a bit too long to arrive

THIS FOOD IS AMAZING. Pancakes are doughy and eggs are splendid! The tomato soup was a bit questionable but EVERYTHING ELSE WAS AMAZING!

A review for my parents in law who had lunch with two of their close friends in January 2024: - staff were lovely and atmo was great - food was disappointing. Risotto was cold but tasted ok. The fish over cooked and tasteless. Vegetables were cold. - wine was £12 per glass: pricey for what it was - if the food was low-average price then it would have been acceptable experience but it was £130 per couple. My parents in law and their friends are used to eating out and happy to pay for value but they were shocked at the expense for such a poor to mediocre meal.

Had a really nice couple drinks at Brumus. The staff made me feel very welcomed. Especially Freddie and Dan, made my experience very worthy and will definitely be coming back! :)

Went for afternoon tea, not bad at all, great mix of sweet and savory. Sparkling wine a bit expensive considering the bottle is 23£ in a regular store but they are in a busy neighbourhood so it's priced accordingly.

Excellent restaurant with impeccable service. Warm and friendly welcome. The staff is discreet but attentive to the smallest detail. The dishes are delicious and well stocked. I highly recommend in the Trafalgar Square area. Plus, the restaurant can serve you before the show which takes place in the theater opposite.

Wow such excellent food and service at a great price for Mayfair. Lovely greeting on arrival, pre theatre menu 3 courses for £28.00.. Food and service excellent.Yes drinks are pricey but you don't mind when food good value. It was my son's birthday treat and they did him a lovely fruit and chocolate platter with a candle such a lovely touch. Can't wait to return when in area .

Went there tonight after the Theatre. Welcoming and food was good plus reasonable in price. Nice atmosphere and reasonable in price.

A first time visit for us for a pre-theatre meal. We were very warmly welcomed and taken to our table and drinks orders taken quickly. We chose from the set menu and all the food was delicious. We felt the prices were very reasonable especially for the centre of London. The service was really good and the atmosphere relaxed. Will definitely be back.

Went there after watching Phantom which was incredible Had the set menu Best meal I have had in ages. Great staff, service and the ambience was perfect.

Well !! they offer everything. Venue, service and food. They succeeded. Do visit. V small niggle Provence Rosè not cold enough. They did replace the serving. Richard Roberts

The waitress Hadrian was super nice

Delicious afternoon tea but very pricey

I enjoyed my evening so much. The staff were amazing. They gave us a lot of information in regards to the menu and wines. The food was wonderful. I had the venison carpaccio and the Dover sole. My wife had the small risotto and pheasant schnitzel and claimed it was lovely. I wish the decor was a bit more modern but all in all I loved it and will be back soon.

We had a great experience at the Brumus Bar and Restaurant in London. The service, Bruno and his colleagues are very welcoming. The atmosphere, decoration is like in all Firmdale Hotels agreeable and unique. The food was every morning excellent, the drinks at the bar perfectly prepared and the food in the restaurant at night very good. We will definitely come back.

We popped in for breakfast to Brumus today; with no reservation, we were nevertheless warmly welcomed by the maitre d’ and guided to a lovely table, set with beautiful crockery and linen. tablecloth. Hadrian, our waiter was charming and so friendly. The food was served quickly and each plate was well judged and flavoursome. £60 approx for breakfast is by no means cheap - but we got what we paid for :- a superb breakfast in really lovely surroundings and attended by fantastic staff, not least the lovely Hadrian (what a great name!). Highly recommended. PMcC

Look after very well for breakfast this morning! Staff very good! Food excellent!

Brumus is one of our regular stops when we go to London. Plenty of space and never so busy that you feel crammed in. The facilities are immaculate which is something that is often a disappointment. The set menu is reasonably priced for the location and food is cooked to order. The presentation is spot on. We've always been impressed by the attentiveness of the staff and a shout out must go to our waitress Mariana. She was so polite, patient and courteous and Brumus should be proud of her. We will definitely return as it never disappoints.

This is a beautiful restaurant with fantastic food, wine and dessert!!! The perfect place to unwind after a long day!!! Amor waited on me and was super friendly and kind!!! A great experience and a feast for the senses!!!

Great feel to the place. Food was good and the staff were very professional but friendly. Next door to the theatre so a good place for a pre or post meal or drink.

Eclectic and stylish decor, great food and attentive service!

Wonderful service. Great atmosphere. The bar staff were great.

It was ok for a very busy Saturday just before Xmas. Various meals were brought out lukewarm and over seasoned. Hotel is great and location 👌

Continues to be a must stop venue whenever I’m in the area. I enjoy introducing Brumus to friends and family.

Thanks to Nicholas and the wonderful team at Brumus who not only found us a table when I'd booked for the wrong date, but then managed to look after us perfectly to ensure we could enjoy our pre-theatre meal in a very short space of time. Great food as always, and the excellent attentive service we've come to expect at this lovely restaurant.

Always very good quality and service.

Beautiful atmosphere. Fantastic service. Really nice place.

Food was great and our server Amor was excellent! Highly recommend! The location was close to everything.

We have enjoyed an excellent experience at Brumus. Shiva, our waiter, did a great job and made us feel at home! We loved the food and how we got treated - we can recommend it and hope to be back soon again.

Whilst walking in the Haymarket, we noticed Brumus Restaurant, and decided to make a reservation for a pre-theatre meal, later that evening— My wife had the the Steak Frites, and I had the fillet of sea bass, followed by blackberry and apple crumble to finish—all proved to be excellent— First class service by the waiting staff— Will call again the next we return to London—

Stellar experience. My mom and I were visiting London and came across this lovely restaurant from the sign posted outside about Jazz night later that evening. We decided to ask for a table and although full the manager, Alin, was kind to take our name and mobile number and mentioned upon our return when ready to dine he would find a table to accommodate. We returned earlier than expected and to our delight his offer still stood and he offered us a table in the bar area close to the Jazz with the ability to still have dinner in that room. The waiter, Josh, was very hospitable, polite, professional, timely, and always with a smile. He was the kind of waiter you hope to have service you at every restaurant. I had ordered the steak well done and when it arrived, I took notice it was not well done at all. Considering how busy the venue was that evening and accommodating us last minute with a table, I managed to eat most of the steak. However, I noticed it was raw and then Josh appeared and noticed as well and was very apologetic. He took the steak and even though I asked to just quickly flash it no worries, he returned with two complimentary champagne glasses (one for me and one for my mom) to apologize and then returned with a whole new steak and fries. Just wow. Completely above and beyond. I was so impressed that I just thanked him over and over for his attention to detail, tipped him extra and also informed his manager Alin especially that it's the holidays, review time, bonus time - Josh is a true example of the standard wait service should match. Thank you Josh and Alin! We will certainly return for a future visit. Good steak, good service, good music is a win win situation for a delightful evening. MANY THANKS and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

This was a brilliant experience and I would recommend it to anyone

Hey OpenTable I am pleased to see you have this booking confirmed because when we got to the restaurant they had no idea who we were, despite me having email confirmation with me As they were fully booked this was an interesting challenge. Overall this spoilt what was supposed to be a special evening and to be honest despite their best attempts to seat us in a corner of the restaurant it all became a bit of a disappointment. Hard to fault the staff but something is seriously wrong with your systems and despite some platitudes from the restaurant I struggle to recommend the experience

Excellent food and professional and attentive service. Highly recommended!

They managed to lose our OpenTable reservation but fit us in anyway once I had shown them my email confirmation. What followed was possibly the worst service I have ever experienced. We were completely left and forgotten about, took around 30 minutes to have our drinks order taken. Constantly had to flag down servers, which seemed to routinely change. Food itself was excellent but the service led to a terrible experience overall. We were in there 3 hours, not because we were slow at eating, but due to the slow service.

Lovely place to eat. The staff were excellent and the food was delicious. Highly recommend and especially for the pre theatre menu, super value.

Booked for a pre theatre meal. Excellent food and very accommodating staff as our friends train was delayed and they allowed us to order their food in advance of them arriving and then managed to time our main courses all at the same time. Would definitely use again if at a theatre in the Haymarket area.

The cocktails were phenomenal, however the food was dismal… especially for the price point. Our server was able to remove some items from our bill (thankfully, it was simply not edible) but we wouldn’t go back to eat. Drinks however, absolutely. Some great and very tasty creations!

Fantastic food and fantastic service would recommend to anyone who wants good fine dining. The venison was melt in the mouth, in fact everything we had was cooked to perfection and the maitre d was very on point

Great food!! Haven't been here for a while - just as good as we remembered. The decor is understated and the food is excellent. Service was as good as in the past and the new manager balances friendliness with professionalism.

My friend and I had the set menu and were not disappointed. We both chose the same: Smoked trout parfait, Sea Bass with sides of frites, and roasted root vegetable follwed by the Treacle tart with sauce and ice cream. The portions were all of a good size and were all very delicious. The waiters were cheery and friendly. Amor was our main waiter and was charming. We left with full stomachs and were very happy with everything. We both would have no hesitation to return here again. Go on, try it!

a good set menu but my main came up cold - it was taken back and replacement arrived 15 mins later when friends had already finished their meal. Had no cutlery either. Pudding arrived and no cutlery. All in all very disappointing although the food...

Had a lovely lunch from the set menu, two beautiful meals and coffees to finish. The service staff were exceptional, Hadrian was friendly and accommodating. Very professional and polite dining experience. Will definitely be returning soon!

Afternoon Tea at Brumus. Delicious food. Lovely ambience. Attentive and friendly staff. Overall, a delightful experience.

Moderately priced, well designed place with a cheap, generic-looking, pre-theater prix-fixe menu. A La carte, the celeriac and truffle soup is very simple and tastes like unadorned autumn. The pumpkin risotto was also nice, as was the poached pears and fried oat ice cream.

Lovely staff. They accommodated us for a same day, dairy allergy reservation for afternoon tea. The tea and food were so good. Highly recommend

Delicious food Wonderful service Great experience Have recommended to many

Our party of five chose from the pre theatre menu We all had two courses and were all very happy with our choices. Very good value for money. Our first choice of wine was not available, but the second choice was satisfactory. Service was friendly if a little slow, but understandable to a point given the pre theatre rush. Lovely ambience. We will definitely return.

Delicious food served by friendly and efficient staff. Venison was extremely good - perfectly cooked and tender. Great wine recommendation by maitre d.

What a find! A Pre theatre meal at this really excellent restaurant last week with friends made us determined to go again very soon. Firstly, it’s an elegant and pleasant room which feel’s comfortable and welcoming, long banquettes along the walls, interesting artwork, intimate lighting....

To get a three course lunch of this quality in The Haymarket in central London for £28 a head was astonishing. We were treated with care, attention and respect.

Two of four main courses were wrong. By the time this was corrected, we had to bolt our food down and run to theatre. Charged full amount inc service - not amused. Shame, as it is a lovely place.

Can’t ever fault this place. Excellent food and service

Pre theater dinner for two from the set menu. Portions just the right size (not recommended if you are looking for huge meals), served quickly, efficiently and attentively without being intrusive. Lovely decor too. Will definitely go again.

I went for a Pre-Theatre Meal with one 'Girl' friend on a Wed Eve for my Birthday. The Decor (even in the loos !), Ambience & Service were all outstanding. The Food was delicious. The 'Sides' (which you do have to have with the 'Fixed 2 or 3 Courses), are a little expensive and my green beans weren't particularly tastey or warm. Our Chips & Carrots were fine. My Moules were a very generous portion as was my delicious Starter Soup. They also gave me a lovely B'day complimentary Dessert (+ candle !) which was much appreciated. I will certainly return to Brumus, probably with a larger party of people. Overall it was a lovely occasion and experience on my Birthday and both of us enjoyed it !

Lovely meal great service good location, we will be back again!

Told waiter we had theatre tickets. Dinner order didn’t go into system so no food for 45 minutes until we complained. Stuff happens but waiter should have checked and asked us. After that the Caesar salad was good as well as risotto. Think they should have comp’d something though…

Had a lovely meal after seeing phantom of the opera. Food excellent, atmosphere great and not noisy as a lot of restaurants are nowadays. Would return again.

We were there for late night dinner with my daughter in sunday. Just dropped in from the street with no reservation. We were warmly welcomed by the staff at once. I really felt they were happy to see us and wanted to help us in any way. All the food and drinks we had were so good. Well prepared, looked beautifull and tasted even better. The salmon I had was really good and the chocolate mousse with some coffee was a crown for the evening. The atmosphere in Brumus was very nice. With no doubt this was the best food and experience we had in London.

Enjoyable dinner. Food was very good and the ambience excellent with virtually no noise interference. Service was a bit patchy and untidy. Value for money was on the margin with expensive wine.

Absolutely beautiful decor and seating. Not crowded in and very pleasant sound level. Exceelent value for the money. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great location in central London particularly for the theatre,

Great place for early evening catch up. Set menu is very good.

Food lovely. Service lovely. All lovely. Good selection on the menu.

Great find in central London - very quiet location to have lunch, 2 courses £22, great service

Pre theatre menu. Good size portions of steak and modules. Staff very attentive. Lovely ambience

Good value set menu, the food was reasonably good. I think they were understaffed as service was a little slow- we had no time for dessert as we had the theatre to attend. The staff were very friendly.

Civilised and quiet environment, fast service and good food for a very competitive fixed price
