Champagne+Fromage - Covent Garden in City of London, Westminster

Parfait accueil , un régal pour les papilles (produits de qualité), on a adoré la dégustation de champagne en terrasse. on y reviendra c'est sûr!

¡Lo pasamos genial! La selección de champán fue excelente, y los maridajes de queso simplemente divinos. El personal era muy amable y muy bien informado. Nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos, con un ambiente acogedor y acogedor. Perfecto para disfrutar de una deliciosa experiencia francesa. Lo recomendaría encarecidamente.

Lo siento, pero bastante abrumado por toda la experiencia. El champán se entregaba prácticamente a temperatura ambiente, aunque esto se rectificaba pero solo después de abrir la botella. La comida era mediocre, el queso algo soso.

Very good value set lunch; works well for business lunches. Good food.

Enough variety in the menu to satisfy most people. Prices in line with that relatively expensive part of London eating

The bar area where we ate is lovely, we ordered from a fabulous menu and the food came quickly and did not disappoint at all. Eggs Maryland was my favourite, exquisite crab cake with a poached egg, wilted spinach and hollandaise sauce! The drinks were really good and my grandson was very impressed with the bar staff making cocktails. I woould happily go back for a return visit.

Never fails to be outstanding, whether upstairs or the martini bar. A must do when in London x

Always good to return to Christopher's, nice people, good service and very good quality food. Great cocktail bar, classy.

Once you’ve survived the interrogation by the receptionist it’s all a bit hit and miss. Downstairs staff efficient but frosty. Upstairs staff friendly and helpful. Food not great - overcooked scrambled eggs (almost grey) and undercooked poached egg (basically raw but disguised under some quite good hollandaise). Quite nice ambiance and a good, but not cheap choice, for access to theatre land. They need to do better on food quality and the welcome committee!

Fuimos por el menú de té de la tarde y aunque técnicamente llegamos demasiado tarde nos sirvieron amablemente. El té era excelente! Junto con nuestro vaso de burbujeo, había una tabla de deliciosos quesos, panes artesanales, conserva de higos y cerezas maceradas. Además había 6 deliciosos macarons y 2 pastelitos divinos. Allí el servicio fue rápido y atento, no puedo recomendarlo lo suficientemente alto.

The food wasn’t bad, but the overall experience was disappointing. The service was slow and not particularly attentive, and the noise level made it hard to enjoy the meal. Given the price, I expected a much better atmosphere and service. Unfortunately, it’s not a place I’d return to.

Took my mum & sister for lunch pre theatre and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Christopher's. The staff were welcoming, service outstanding & all our food was amazing. We will definitely return.

Beautiful dining room, beautifully cooked and presented fish with great accompaniments, and the desserts were both amazing.

Un martes mojado en Londres y al pasar por el pis parecía decir “entra”. Una cálida bienvenida (en francés) y un camarero relajado y eficiente nos sirvió. Una selección de quesos y el trío de champán todo explicado. Mi amigo es Intolerante al Gluten y también lo atendieron. Deliciosa en todos los aspectos.

The food is correct but a little expensive. The service wants to be funny but he is not.

Go to place for brunch! I’ve been going for years and well recommended!

The food was average, and reasonably priced for London. The French toast and chocolate is lovely as always but does have a slight odd taste to it. The service was OKAY, average and nothing special and the waitress simply took our order and brought the food out to us, so I’m not sure why they add a service charge on and it feels awkward to take it off, or you end up paying it for the sake it.

Went for Saturday brunch when it opened and for 11am the music choice was wrong and far too loud — I love house and dance music but not when I’m relaxing having breakfast. Decor felt a bit tired and simple things were missed, like no salt & pepper on table and not being asked if I wanted other condiments. Water is horrendously overpriced - get tap!

Food here was great atmosphere was good a little noisy but it is a Saturday so was expecting it. negative side was you pay 13.5% for service fee and I don’t feel that we experienced this. Took a while for order to be taken and then when I asked for a menu for the second time to order the chocolate French toast it seemed like it was an inconvenience and when I mentioned it being my partners birthday (WHICH I STATED IN NOTES WHEN BOOKING) and if they could do something on the plate etc again seemed like it was a problem to then have the waitress come over and ask who’s birthday it is when it was meant to be a surprise and cheerful but wasn’t, was hoping the waiting staff would come over but didn’t nothing like what you see on social media.. abit of a letdown and overly hyped but the food was good but I would say a tad overpriced would rate it 6/10 overall.. paid £120 in total for two pornstar martinis two Texas grill breakfasts one french toast and a bottle of still water. Overall left a little meh and gutted.

Service was really slow and won’t be going back because of it

Delicious brunch- pancakes / brioche/ orange juice . Service was attentive

The egg Maryland was very good but, on the whole rather a small dish for the price. Whereas, the buttermilk chicken sandwich was very tasty and a good size.

I had booked the restaurant for celebratory lunch after my son's Master's graduation on the day of the graduation. I had mentioned this in my booking before, but we did need to mention this again when we arrived. Would have been nice if a little fuss could have been made of my son. With regards to the food and service, this was very good. Staff were very attentive.

The most unbelievable dark chocolate french toast I've ever had! Service was attentive and welcoming and prices were expected for central London (but happily would pay £20 for that french toast again!) - a must try for any keen bruncher!

I was told that the restaurant was fully booked on arrival. I had checked the availability 15 minutes prior to arriving and there WAS availability every 15 minutes. So I booked and asked why I was lied to - unsatisfactory response. This ruined our experience and there were also issues with the food being undercooked, etc. Would not reccomend !

Food, ambience and service were excellent as usual

Great food but the restaurant was too cold inside

Our party of 6 had various meals from Burgers, Pasta to the Lamb and all very pleased with the quality and taste of the food. Service was excellent and a very enjoyable evening had by all.

Pretty decent restaurant. Covent Garden manic outside but at 19.30 here only 9 diners. Service very good and food ok but vastly overpriced. £ 50 for a small fillet steak !!!!. It was good but not that good. Served with microwaved chips. I dined alone. One g and t plus 1 small glass of pinot noir and a one shot expresso = £110. I know this is Covent Garden but not great value

Really beautiful restaurant, not over the top decoration but very elegant. The food was great, and the brunch has some unique items which are very tasty - truffle scrambled eggs! Waiter was friendly and the food came out very quick! Will definitely be going back.

Christopher’s in London proved to be an expensive disappointment. From the moment we arrived, the service was inattentive and failing to meet even basic expectations for a restaurant of its caliber. The food was a complete letdown—bland, poorly seasoned, and made with subpar ingredients that clearly didn’t reflect the price tag. Each dish lacked freshness and balance , which made the high cost even harder to justify. The ricotta pancakes were the only redeeming aspect of the meal, but they alone couldn’t salvage the experience. We ended up complaining about two out of four dishes, which were kindly comped, but that didn’t change the overall experience. The overall ambiance, often praised by influencers, felt overhyped and underwhelming. Additionally, the toilets were poorly maintained which only further detracted from the experience. It’s clear that this restaurant thrives on social media buzz, but in terms of food quality, service, and value, it falls short. While the gesture of comping the dishes was appreciated, my review reflects the true overall experience, and unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend Christopher’s to those looking for a delicious brunch.

Said I would like a no-jito as it I am not meant to be drinking alcohol due to pregnancy and they still brought it with alcohol and never replaced the drink. They also got me and my friends drink confused and the attitude towards us as we asked if there was a misunderstanding was very indifferent and rude. I have been here various times before and it was never like this so I wasn’t expecting to receive this type of service which was quite surprising.

Fabulous food - great brunch! Nice ambience and attentive waiting staff.

Great food, nice size portions to share. Drinks were great.

Fantastic dishes, had two different fish dishes for main course and they tasted lovely and cooked just right. Desserts were also very good. Nice, private feel to the place. Will return.

This was sadly to say, quite a disappointing experience. We waited over 40mins for our main course which was our first course. Dessert was very slow as well. We had a 17:45 booking on a pre-theatre menu for a 19:30 show, yet we had to rush out around 19:10 as we ran out of time, leaving our dessert part eaten. As we had arrived slightly early, we spent at least an hour and 25mins in the restaurant and that was insufficient for a two course pre theatre menu meal! The food was unfortunately nothing to write home about. Shame we could not finish our dessert which was better than our mains.

Not the best table provided. We were in the small room on the side. Should have been the main room. Poor ambiance

All good. Difficult with children. But otherwise very good. Recommend the French toast!

Steak wasn’t cooked correctly, server disappeared. Luckily, a new one was flagged down 20 minutes later. New server, Adrien (spelling?) he was nice and very service oriented

Lovely brunch, food was delicious, staff friendly, definitely will be coming back!

Unclear why this place is open — mouse ran through the bar, French fry was still ice cold in the center, and cocktails were abhorrent (two different basic martinis both awful)

Overall our experience was good, food as always was great. However, the service this time was lacking. Repeatedly having to chase things we had ordered and in one instance not getting an item at all. When the bill arrived at the end there were items on there we hadn’t received or ordered so we had to get this amended. It felt as though being we were just a small table of 3, we were forgotten about amongst the larger table groups around us.

We arrived early for our table and the front staff were very accommodating to arrange a table earlier. It was very much appreciatedz

The service was amazing. The food was good but I wish they had more options.

A very disappointing dinner last night. The service was very poor… I had to go and find a waiter to take our drinks and food order. The water didn’t come. The food came wrong. No attention to detail at all! The restaurant wasn’t particularly friendly or interested in having us there. The guy on the door was great though and took some lovely Christmas photos of us as we left. The only good part!

Amazing from start to finish 4 of us had lunch here Friday lunch time . Food outstanding champagne just wow ! Staff super super friendly . We will be back

Food was good as usual but the service has deteriorated a lot. No one came to take our orders 10 min after we got our menus. Our water glasses were never refilled. When it came to ordering dessert again we had to wait ages to get the attention of a staff member . Dessert prep time was really long and lastly we ordered 2 course kids meal but never received the dessert for the kids meal. The 13.5% service charge is exorbitant and does meet the standards you would expect from Christopher’s. Very disappointed this time

Booked as a family treat. What a waste! We’d have had more fun in Mc donalds. We were parked on a tiny dark table by the waiters. My mint tea had two mint leaves. French toast was a soggy mess, my daughter refused to finish he “greasy” pancakes and my husband’s eggs benedict was chewy. I can think of better ways to spend £90!

The food has definitely gone up a notch - first time I have done brunch here - their french toast was best I have ever eaten!! All our breakfasts were amazing and so were our cocktails Lovely staff It was clearly EXTREMELY busy… but everyone managed to get us our order and with charm and smiles! Will def be coming for brunch again

We had the pre theatre menu which was delicious. Good portion size. Service was patchy and we had to keep trying to get the staffs attention but it was a very busy Saturday night in December. We all enjoyed the meal and would go back again.

Front of house staff was very welcoming table setting was nice and the service was quick and professional. Definitely will re book

Hi the Martini Bar was welcoming with good service. The restaurant was so-so. Taking our order was slow. Our waiter spilled red wine on to the white tablecloth as he poured our wine into two out of three glasses. Once ordered the food came quickly. The fillet steaks were very good but the lobster mac and cheese at £36 for mac and cheese with 3-4 small pieces of lobster was poor value. It was all “fine” but for over £400 not good value.

Food was good Service was very but and miss Poor knowledge for what was suitable for celiacs Wine took ages to arrive

Service was generally not very attentive. Had to ask for a server to come to the table every time. Condiments had to be asked for. No salt and pepper on the table. For the price I am sure you could do a lot better

What a fabulous evening we had and thank you to Remi and the team for looking after us. The baked Camembert with truffle and port was a big hit, get the roast potatoes to dip into it! Remi was a fabulous host, made our experience personal (thank you for spotting my insulin and asking me about it), wasn’t over bearing but super friendly and chatty. Constantly running around between tables and all with a smiling, welcoming face. Thank you, you really made our evening

Nice Food Helpful and welcoming staff, lovely views

Thank you for the beautiful experience we had and to the team for being so lovely, lovely ambience, team, and food!

Been here a few times.. love it normally. Today we spent a small fortune but were kicked out of our seats and its still empty! Outrageous!! poor management!

Went with family. Lovely atmosphere on entry with Christmas decorations. Restaurant was nice but it took a while to be served. Food was nothing special and quite overpriced for what it was. Glad we tried it but would not rush back.

Asked for medium rare lamb but got well done. Sent it back, replacement was perfect. The curry came with the driest mixed grain rice ever. Just do basmati !!!! The smell in the ladies loo was dreadful (rank, worse than a portaloo ) Very disappointed this time won’t be back.

Pre theatre experience. Cocktail followed by.three course pre theatre menu with plenty of choice and good portion size. Tasty wine list. Well situated for theatre land. I've known the place for over 30yrs and it never disappoints.

Over priced - awful food - How can you mess up brunch so badly - eggs were horrible - rubber and tasted bad. Bread stale and everything was charred! Do not waste your money here

Had to wait for table to be ready despite making a reservation, food was pleasant but incorrect french toast was presented & when waitress realised error two small peaches were brought to table to attempt to rectify, restaurant is also extremely loud.

All in all I’d say it’s okay, the French toast is definitely nice and the quality on the sausage for the tex meal was really good. Not a restaurant I’d go back to often but it’s okay to try.

Amazing food, service and the staff here are amazing and take good care of you. Would recommend for groups, couples or solo. Great ambience and very cozy atmosphere.

The location, ambience and price of Christopher’s is just what you would expect of a top London restaurant (and I have been many times before). That said, the food for our Saturday brunch was average at best. The omelettes (a guest and mine) were overcooked (dry) with little filling; not the luxurious omelette presentations I have had in the past. Similarly, the side-dish of hash browns was anything other than what one might have expected in a top-class American style restaurant; soft mash that had a little browning here and there - where was the lovely naughty crispy offering? Despite the disappointments I was sufficiently hungry to eat the offerings and leave. I did send the supposed tobacco onions back; they were neither crispy or thinly cut and some fool had decided to add a load of spice that made it/them inedible. There are too many other good restaurants in London to revisit here

Really good, great service, good food and lovely cocktails. Let us sit on longer for an extra bottle of wine and then port. All very good.

Great food. Great service. Best Thanksgiving dinner I’ve ever had!

We booked for Sunday brunch. Our waiter kept disappearing and only after 40 minutes did he come take our order. Food came out at different times, 15 mins. to an hour later. The Christmas cocktails were all ice, one teaspoon of actual drink. There was nothing to drink. What a waste of money. Food was okay. Eggs holladaise were nice. Salmon eggs were too watery. French toast was fantastic but that took one hour to come out. For over £250 spent plus service charge don’t waste your money here.

Overpriced, average food, served by unfriendly staff. Even the meet and greet team on the front of house couldn’t raise a smile and on leaving, didn’t bother looking up from their phones to thank us for coming. Would not return and would not recommend to anyone.

A regular and great place for brunch. Interesting menu and good food.

Fried chicken and waffles tastes like a heat up leftover, it’s horrible!

We arrived and the entrance was full of people who had just turned up hoping for a table, we panicked a little bit but the concierge came straight over To us and took us to our table . The waiting staff were so friendly, professional and helpful. The food was out of this world and very well priced, Thank you all for a great experience

Birthday celebration. Attentive servers, great steak, cooked to perfection. I have eaten here many times and this was the best time yet

Stunning venue with excellent food. The chocolate brioche French toast is worthy of the best French toast in London title. Staff were immaculately presented and friendly. However the experience was slightly marred by the fact it was my birthday brunch and it was stated in my booking while I watched about 3 tables during our sitting get sparklers birthday plates and I got nothing. One of the sides of fries we ordered was missing from our order too. It’s a beautiful venue, I was just a bit disappointed my birthday wasn’t acknowledged but a few other diners was in my presence.

It’s a beautiful place, especially with Christmas decorations but it was very quiet given for a Friday night. It was lacking atmosphere not to mention it was cold and a little uncomfortable. The food was nice but nothing super special for the prices, especially the drinks. Expected more from such upmarket place but I guess this is the new London.

As soon as you walk in it feels special, they was putting up Christmas trimmings, and it was looking amazing. Went to our table 6 of us, we had the £35 theatre menu, starters was lovely mains was a little disappointing, pulled pork tacos was very small portion although very tasty. Sea bass was the star of the show the linguine was a very poor let down, swimming in oil, and when finished still was an inch of oil in the bowl. The chocolate fudge cake was absolutely amazing! 1 waiter went out his way to be polite and funny the other waiter housing be a waiter, he wasn't rude but looked like he didn't want to be there. Big let down was the toilets, they defo need an upgrade, and needed to be inspected as they was untidy and not the cleanest water was absolutely freezing. Overall was lovely to be in such a special building but things need to improve to want to make us return.

The food portion sizes were way too small and have got progressively smaller over the last 3 years whilst the prices have been going up. The chicken breast for £28 was the same size as a poussin. Won’t be returning soon

Incredible food with amazing service, the dessert was the best dessert i’ve had in London (pecan pie!)

I came here twice and the food so delicious!! The burger yummy

Delicious food well presented and excellent service.

A very positive experience except some of the seating in the bar area is very dark so it’s difficult to read the menus and see your food.

un posto perfetto per un esperienza elegante e buonissima

Absolutely loved my first visit here! We were hungry after spin class so went for two mains because why not?! My Huevos California were delicious and perfectly balanced with generous portions of avocado. The French Toast with peaches and mascarpone was actually divine. I can't wait to return!

The customer service was exceptional. The chocolate French toast is a must have! The Eggs Royale were incredible but the crab cake was below average and we found small pieces of shell in the crab meat, this put us off from having anymore. Overall, would still visit again as the service and French toast were amazing.

Food was spot on today, delicious and very good service 😊😊😊

Tomamos una botella de Lacroix Authentique acompañada de una tabla de cinco quesos, así como una tabla de tres carnes y hummus. Todo muy bueno, de hecho. Remi era muy servicial. Gracias.

He estado aquí varias veces y siempre cumple. difícil de ir mal con el champán y el queso y siempre es genial encontrar algo que no has probado antes que te convence. El espacio es limitado, pero eso es parte del atractivo, realmente vale la pena reservar. Los precios del champán un poco altos, pero los costos de ubicación deben ser enormes. Si te gusta alguno de los champagnes puedes comprarlos online directamente desde C+F y precios muy rebajados.

Beautiful decore, very attentive staff and excellent food, would highly recommend and will be coming back!

We have been going to Christophers for many years, starting well before the name change from Christophers American Bar and Grill. We absolutely loved it. We even did a NYE there that might have been one of the best NYE dinners and experiences I have ever had (this is quite a few years ago now). I must say, the last 3 or 4 times it just feels like it has slipped -- each time, enjoying the experience just a little less. Both my wife and I expressed it nearly at the same time after our most previous visit on 08/11/2024. I learned how to make martinis from a fantastic bartender at Christophers on our very first visit there. Since then, I have always discussed drinks and such with their bartenders. In fact, we like our martinis a certain way because of that bartender and always enjoyed talking to the Christopher bartenders about it. The last few visits I have found the bartenders far less engaging and borderline rude. The two on Friday (not busy at all -- around 17:45 or so) would not engage at all and if looks could kill, I would not be writing this. I can understand if it were busy, but they were NOT busy at all. Once seated and ordering, we asked if there would be any way that we could get the mac n' cheese as a side. The answer was a definitive "no". They could remove the lobster and serve the main, but would not serve it as a side. Why not? We ordered the most expensive glass of red they had at £26/glass. It was 125ml! I didn't even know they served that size in London. I assumed it would be 175ml. What made it frustrating was the menu I ordered it off of -- the bar menu that they gave us in addition to the wine menu when we were seated -- didn't say it was 125ml. I pointed it out to the waiter and his first response was that the wine menu states that it is 125ml and was hesitant to do anything. In the end, they did make it 175ml. Finally, the food seems it has gone from excellent to mediocre. The steak we had was very average.

Excellent ambience. Good professional service. Nice but wildly overpriced.

Had food from the pre-theatre menu, all was brilliant.

The pancakes are the fluffiest i have ever had. Out of this world fluffy and light. Incredible food and great portion sizes

Staff are absolutely lovely, French toast 10/10. Great experience

Table booked for 11am - restaurant doesn't open until 11am - diners waiting outside locked doors - thank goodness it wasn't raining! Folks on door reception could try to smile and be friendly - first impressions count. Famous French toast was very good but could have been great with two peaches instead of one. Bloody Mary tasted more like a Virgin Mary.

Great decor inside and lovely old building. The staff on the phone were very polite and friendly and staff on arrival and serving staff were wonderful. The menu had a good choice of options and the pre theatre options were a great price. I’d definitely return again.

Perfect place for brunch. Quiet. Lots of space and good food

Always love it here. The service is great and the food is amazing. Tried the cookie this time and it was so good! I’ll be back soon

Christopher’s is really not worth the price. The service was very mediocre. The food very very average. The ambience is good but definitely not worth the pricing.

The food was so so not bad but not great. Waiter could have been more friendly when asked questions.
