Went to Christopher's for the first time yesterday. Food was okay, nothing to write home about. Mac & Cheese was very oily. Steak was decent though.

Really not what I expected. Didn’t even bother to read why we went to the restaurant. The food was terrible and overpriced. The French toast was actually nice but not worth the price either.

Loved Christopher’s! The food was fantastic and the experience was great. The only feedback is for the salmon and scrambled eggs that should be on the bread rather than serve the way it is.

The service was very slow had to wait for a while to be seated even though the lady at reception was very helpful the service during the meal time was very slow we waited for a while to be served kept asking for someone to take my order and the the toilets where unclean and messy and the service during payment was very delayed and slow so overall service wasn’t great, French toast isn’t worth the hype either which was disappointing however they did do a little celebration for the birthday girl which was the only thing nice.

Christopher’s is rated highly for their brunch and my expectations were quite high. We were seated quickly and our order was taken promptly. We had the Lobster Mac&Cheese and the Eggs Maryland(Crab cake, spinach, poached egg and hollandaise) - I’m sorry to admit that both dishes were very average. The eggs Maryland was salty and the Lobster Mac&Cheese has the chewiest lobster I’ve ever had. The cheese was just melted with no notable crust. What really saved the day were the amazingly fluffy blueberry pancakes. Woooowwww I will have to go back just for that. The service was really average, might just be a busy Saturday afternoon.

Dining at Christophers is always a very enjoyable experience. The staff from meet and greet to waiting staff in the dining room are pleasant, friendly and professional. Our main server was lovely, very helpful, warm and nothing was too much trouble. Just a slight gripe on the speed of service sometimes. We asked for condiments to accompany our main course and it took about 10 minutes to arrive. I think there was maybe a little mix up in which server was organising that and sometimes no servers were in view. Also, I did state in the booking on ‘occasion’ that it was a birthday but I had to relay that info later to serving staff as I don’t think that had been passed on to the dining room. I would have expected meet and free staff to perhaps check that with us and relay info to waiting staff. In the end our lovely server delivered a special dessert sparkler but I wonder if I hadn’t casually mentioned it if that would have been overlooked.

We were looking for a quiet place to enjoy dinner on our last night in London and this one came up as a quiet place to enjoy good food. Unfortunately, upon entering just the lobby, I could hear loud music coming from upstairs and began regretting my choice. Having already paid to make the reservation, there was no alternative. The dining area was decorated nicely with large windows, but they had rhythmic dance music playing the entire time and it was very distracting and unpleasant. Each diner was required to order a main dish, which was bothersome because some of us would have liked to try some of the delicious looking starters and appetizers that they had, but knew we weren’t hungry enough to eat all that food, so we were all stuck choosing something from the small mains list and forgoing the nicer choices from the other sections of the menu. The food was good, though several of our dishes were quite spicy. Also, some of the meals seemed lacking. One in our party ordered a burger, which arrived on a plate by itself. No garnish, no side dish, just a burger on a plate. My husband ordered tacos, which ended up being 2 street tacos, and not enough for a full meal. I wouldn’t recommend this place as there are plenty of other places in the area that would be better value and more catered to the customer and not the desire of the restaurant.

This place is going down hill, and fast. Have eaten here a few times over the years and this will be the last. Friday evening in August and the place was virtually empty, and I can now see why. Service was very slow, only seemed to be two staff serving. Take next door to us was very loud - and yet they could have spread guests out rather than place the few they had close to each other. Food was good, but expensive and slightly smaller portion size than many similar places

We went for the Sunday brunch, and were disappointed by the overall service. There wasn’t one consistent server, and it took asking twice for water in 20 minutes to receive any. At that point, our service was relatively rushed, and came in quickly. Although after that point, it took another 20 minutes or so for someone to come take our plates. (No one checked in to see how our meal was, or asked if we wanted anymore water/drinks).

The food (we ordered the French toast) was absolutely delicious. However, I was a bit disappointed when I got the bill. While booking it asked for a special occasion and as it was my guest’s birthday, I filled it in. She got a nice plate with a firework and one scoop of ice cream but that was reflected on the bill as well. £8 for one scoop of ice cream is a bit ridiculous in my opinion. I think it would be fair if you include this information somewhere while booking as otherwise I would have done something myself which could have been cheaper.

We chose Christopher's because of its location near the Theatre Royal Drury Lane. I had the rib-eye steak, which was perfectly portioned and delicious. My wife went with salmon, I believe, and she enjoyed it. Drawback: the restaurant offers no starch or vegetable with the entree', and we purchased some fries to complement the meal. Overall, a fine, reasonably priced (for London) dinner experience.

After leaving the 8 bar having visited two days in a row, we stopped by stage bar to have one last drink. It was mainly to listen to some entertainment. Two bar tenders working it was about 10.30pm one was visibly miserable from get go, lacking the hospitality-make you feel welcome. We go out in groups and it is not uncommon for a group to ask for a bill to be split in our case the total divided by three. This bar tender started with oh well you know if you split it the service charge will be added individually or something along those lines. That instantly got my back up because we are splitting the bill you have presented us, what is your issue? Then this unnecessary back and forth. It was not about the service charge which by the way is discretionary. It was clear he was irate by being asked to split the bill. It took him quite a while too, every other server brings a PDQ machine, gets a calculator and splits a bill very simple instruction! The customer is not always right and I would put my hands up; not in this case. The kind of attitude from this bar tender on 30 August is not what hospitality needs in this day and age. He really killed the vibe! I don’t go out to argue with people I go out to have a good time. In the UK, service charges in restaurants are optional and customers can choose to pay or not. Restaurants can decide to add a service charge, which is typically between 5–15% of the bill. The Employment (Allocation of Tips) Act 2023 will come into effect in the UK on October 1, 2024. This act will require employers to ensure that workers receive the full tip from customers. In this case would have never tipped! The issue was never about service charge but just in case this is not clear to some of your staff a tip is usually about good service it has almost become an expectation in some of these establishments irrespective of service good or bad!
