Personally, I regret spending my money here Got 1x americano and an avocado toast for £10.15. I’m a local & I love a good coffee & avo-toast. The coffee was cheap, the avo-toast were cut really thinly and didn’t taste that nice either. After I left I went to get extra food elsewhere as I was still hungry… on top of that the service & atmosphere wasn’t that friendly. So not sure why I’d come here again. Better to add in £5.00 extra go down the road on Bethnal Green Road and get a proper breakfast and a good quality coffee in a nice, friendly atmosphere for a few quid extra. Maybe it was just not my place, maybe it was a bad, busy day for everyone, maybe it’s being on the brick of an economic crisis. Still, not coming back again.

Food was ok. But they charged 11.50 for a tuna bagel, bottle of water and service. Absolutely overpriced as someone else in our party had a tuna bagel and tea for 6.75. They refused to pay service charge. When challenged they didn’t want to know. Check your bill before you pay.

I recently hosted my birthday celebration here, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The ambiance was inviting, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The drinks were good, and my guests enjoyed the variety of options. However, although Andrea was very helpful in rectifying this; there is room for improvement in terms of the organisation prior to the event. Despite this, it was still a great gathering, and I would return in the future.

A cafe that charges you 12.5 % service charge even though there is no table service..total rip off. Never go again. Also you pay 10p extra for milk in an Americano. What sort of place does this?

Style over substance! Expensive and pretentious; sadly, typical of many places in London. Our group ordered a beef sandwich and beef bagel. Beef was so tough as to be inedible. Also saw other customers leave (lots of) food. Burrata was nothing special and just about passable given the 'supermarket' tomatoes. Had to serve ourselves and service was generally poor as there was only one member of staff. Why did I bother?

I hired this venue for a private party for my 50th birthday. From making initial contact, booking to actual party itself was smooth well planned, and everything I asked for was catered for and the staff on the evening could not have done more to make my celebration special. My friends and family had a fabulous time and they loved the venue as I did. I would definitely recommend this place and I would have further celebrations here:

I went with some friends for lunch on a Saturday. The menu was mostly brunch/eggs and I would’ve preferred tapas dishes. The food was delicious though. The pancakes were great. The eggs royale were fantastic. The service was a bit slow and everyone’s food came out apart from one person who had to wait 10 minutes without any food. The location is good and the seats out the back are nice and there’s a ping pong table. The roof bar looks nice too.

Hired the rooftop bar for my birthday and it was a great spot. It felt very private and special and loved the option of having the roof open for a few hours while the sun went down. Great space for a celebration, and appreciated the late license meaning we could dance until 2am! Thanks to Alex and the team.

Was finding it difficult to find a restaurant/bar that gave off a calm and vibrant atmosphere close to the city centre that also is within a decent budget, until I cam across Chriniguito. This place literally ticked all my boxes. Beach bar brought to the busy city of london? sign me up. The staff, the food, the atmosphere, location and prices were all 10/10. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Although it is close to the tube station, the bar was far too small and crowded. As well as that, the drinks menu seemed to be rather limited and as a result far too expensive.

Sargeant's Mess is a British restaurant just in front of the Tower of London and adjacent to Tower Bridge. Created by celebrity chef Mark Sargeant, the restaurant serves unmemorable food in a fairly bland atmosphere buttressed by one of the most spectacular locations in London. The food concept behind Mess is to offer traditional British fare at a high quality. Frankly, it is just average. The food is the weakpoint of the restaurant. The concept just seems to have fallen away with for instance the only vegetarian dish in the main course even using the American name Mac N Cheese. It is ok but it is just macaroni cheese so there's a clear ceiling to how good it can be. A large part of the menu is burgers. Not exactly traditional British fare. The vegetarian burger was not bad because it had an avocado in it. Otherwise not the kind of a quality a specialist upmarket provider might generate. Dessert options are fairly limited though the Eton Mess is ok. Service was not that great unfortunately. The faux accent was jarring in its articulation. Chips as an accompaniment to a burger were served without question as to whether a condiment could be offered then an over the top response was generated to a question asking whether such a thing could be provided. Price is high considering the fare. The location does demand a price like that but the food does not. Sargeant just has failed to generate interesting eating. One real shame for a December lunch was that it turned out the Christmas menu was not on offer. It was a real disappointment and made the whole place feel like a let-down. The plus is absolutely the magnificent location. Nestling in the shadow of the Tower and next to Tower Bridge the views are incredible. Looking out at the Thames is beautiful here although the number of window seats is quite small. However, going outside while waiting for food for instance offers a terrific perspective on some of London's finest buildings. Admittedly it is perfectly possible just to walk along the Thames and get the same view. Sargeant's Mess is ultimately a disappointment. The food is flavourless and too simple. Nothing interesting about it at all. No creativity or flair. The price reflects the location and so is too much for the quality of the eating. Service is not great and it was such a shame to find the menus advertised on the website did not exist in reality. The plus is the magnificent location, one of the very best anywhere in London.

Im assuming this is the stour cafe 258 Kingsland Road, and if not then thats what I'm talking about! Amazing coffee and the best bacon sarnie Ive ever eaten. Had in back in early December. Sour dough bread, butter, amazing meat and brown sauce - it was just brilliant. The bread was ace too. Great chef!
