Visité aquí antes de que cerrara para un regalo de cumpleaños! ¡Quería probar la comida Toms ya que me impresionó en Great British Menu! Tenía trucha para empezar, merluza de Kiev para principal y chocolate de postre! Sabor increíble! Me alegro de haber experimentado este restaurante antes de que cerrara!

Our second to Cornerstone and it confirmed that it is. our favourite place to eat in London. My fiance and I have lived in London for over 12 years and are huge foodies - regularly visiting the stunning food scene the capital has to offer. But Cornerstone is an absolute gem - 10/10 service, delicious food, fab drinks and outstanding value for money! You will not find another meal or experience like this, for the price. We have been here twice now, and it's become 'our' restaurant - likely to frequent now for all anniversaries and celebrations!

We visited the restaurant this week and we were overall disappointed. I did not say anything whilst we were there because we were with friends and I did not want to create a scene. However, the overall experience was poor: - the service was ok but not exceptional as would be expected for the price; - allergies were recognised but left the options very limited; - the menu was confusing; - the food was average. We eat out daily and globally and we were underwhelmed. We have small appetites but the portion sizes left us hungry after three courses. The pastrami was shockingly dry and poor; and the brill was way overpriced for the quality provided. I ate a steamed fish recently in Thailand which was far better in taste, quality and value; - payment: The prices are way above average for average food. The bill was provided before requested. We were still drinking our coffee’s and wanted another drink; and - departure: our coats were brought to us without request. Basically saying “leave now”. Sadly, a poor experience. I wrote to complain but I have to date received no response.

Finally made it to Tom’s restaurant but well worth the wait. Sipped a glass of champagne whilst choosing from the lunchtime menu. Food was interesting, depth of flavours all delicious, having decided to stay on the bubbles we then chose a dessert wine to go with our final plate

I’d been looking forward to this for so long and unfortunately it didn’t live up to my expectations. The main problem was the menu was difficult to decipher and the waiting staff weren’t able to easily explain it. We asked on three separate occasions for some advice and each time were left feeling more confused. I feel this would be better as a set tasting menu or fully a la carte, rather than a hybrid. And being clearer about what constitutes a starter / main or small / big portion would be helpful too. I also found the room too noisy and this contributed to not being able to hear the waiting staff well. Their rushed descriptions and whisking every plate away the second it was finished (or not in one instance) left us feeling a bit harried. Food was nice but not as wow as I was hoping for.

Everything was perfect- amazing food and service. We would absolutely recommend the cocktail pairing - four cocktails that worked really well with each course. One of the cocktails wasn’t on the main drinks list- it was vodka, Sauvignon and basil- and was so good we ordered another at the end of the meal. Highlights on the menu were the crab bun and the Hake Kyiv but honestly everything was delicious. I was amazed how good the pre-dessert of rhubarb and custard was. We can’t wait to come back

Lovely space, ambience, staff, and food, just every course had some sort of bread/dough accompaniment, and I wish they did something else, especially for us less carbohydrate loving people, otherwise a great evening!

The server we had seemed miserable from start to finish. She had no awareness of the menu when asked specific questions. Even when asked simple questions such as which options are not raw, she recommended pastrami which is clearly raw. Then suggested the mackerel pate, I asked if it was cooked and she replied partially. So I said so it’s raw, so neither can I have that. I ordered the seabass and it was served to me raw, even though it was not meant to be. What if this was an allergy, would I be taken seriously then? The issues I had give me no confidence that they can cater to specific dietary requirements at this establishment. When the waitress was reading out the wine flight my dad ordered to go with his meal, we couldn’t hear a word she was saying. I asked her to speak up and still could not hear her mumbling. Such a shame, we had a great experience the first time we came. Poor staffing knowledge and staff persona ruined this restaurant for us. I’m not sure why someone would work in the industry if they seem to hate it. Not a single smile given the entire meal just constantly seemed annoyed. Don’t try getting a response via email from the restaurant, you have to email two or three times to even be acknowledged. Won’t be returning.

Lunch at Cornerstone was fabulous: excellent service, the most flavoursome and delicious food, pleasant and reasonably priced wines. Tom wasn’t present in the kitchen today, but his outstandingly good brigade did not let standards slip: the amuse bouche, oysters, breads and butters, crab bun, hake Kiev, and wines were exceptional. Truly exceptional! I thank staff for their recommendations - spot on! And the excellent service. Good value too. Thank you to all. A memorable lunch. See you soon!

We came for my friends birthday celebration and had the chefs selection and wine pairing. Honestly the best food I’ve eaten and I’m a huge fan of Rick Stein so I’ve switched allegiance to Tom Brown very willingly 😂😂!! Service was exemplary especially from the lovely Dominika who couldn’t have been more attentive and friendly. We were blown away by the quality of the food and the beautiful wine. An absolute winner of an evening, can’t recommend highly enough.

We absolutely loved our experience at this relaxed restaurant. The food was top class. The pickled oysters and crab bun were my favorites. Price was reasonable for the quality. The mint chocolate dessert was pretty awful though. Did not match the standard of the rest of the meal, we were very surprised someone decided to serve this... Overall though, we would strongly recommend and we will definitely be back!

On the evening of 04th Aug, I had an important business dinner. I chose the Cornerstone restaurant based on reviews and recommendations. My two guests and I opted for the Chef’s Selection (Bill Number 33891). Our server informed us that the dishes would be served in the centre of the table for the three of us to share. Although this might be uncomfortable while dining with people whom you may not know very well, we were curious about the Chef's Selection menu, and we decided to give it a try. It started well. However, the whole experience ended being awkward. Even though I paid for three sets of Chef’s Selections, some of the dishes were clearly designed for two people, not three. I am still trying to figure out how to divide two buns, two portions of raspberry sauce, and two portions of kimchi (attached image). When I questioned the waitress about the situation, she merely stated that we were getting a better deal, because one bun was meant for two people. It was not an appropriate situation to argue about, so I chose to let it go for the time being. To make matters worse, the dessert only offered two portions for three people (attached image).We were left struggling to determine who should go first and how much of it we should take. While the restaurant indeed deserves a Michelin recommendation for its food, I cannot imagine what the Michelin's food critics would say if they were in our position. As someone who frequently dines out, I expect a certain level of service and attention to detail. Unfortunately, this was not the case during my visit to your establishment. I left the restaurant feeling cheated and humiliated. It was an embarrassing experience.

August installation of my celebration takes us to Cornerstone by chef Tom Brown, a finalist on Great British Menu 2018, down in Hackney Wick. As a native of Cornwall, Tom offers a seafood menu in a relax and casual atmosphere. We opted for the Chefs Selection with pairings, and simply WOW. This is clearly in our top 2 so far this year. If you are a fan of seafood, it’s worth a trip to Hackney Wick. Well done team Cornerstone

Enjoyed the tasting menu at Cornerstone last night. Started with a pickled dirty martini that was amazing. Best martini ever. Progressed to the tasting menu, each course better than the last. Barry, who led us thru each course was attentive and informative. Cornerstone exceeded our expectations. Looking forward to returning on our next trip to London.

Loved it here, like the menu concept, interesting to go to a fully seafood based Michelin restaurant. Based in Hackney Wick which is a quirky little cool area of London (much nicer than Hackney itself which is awful) great service, I’ve cool open dining area with kitchen in the middle, and fantastic food, really well thought out, amazing flavours, great Michelin experience. Loved the Kombucha too. XO crab but with gooseberry hoisin and Kimchi was immense, as was the Hake Kiev. All courses to be fair were fantastic, only slight disappointment was the dessert, whilst it was very nice it was not to a Michelin standard compared to the other courses, just a standard dessert, luckily the cheese course prior to it was beautiful as were the petit fours with the bill.

The food is just fantastic. My friend and I went for the Chef's Selection because it included all the things we wanted to try anyway and was good value to boot. We were full by the end of the fifth course but we found room to enjoy the final cheese and dessert courses. Awesome! Lovely service and chilled vibe. We will be back!

The voucher for my husband's birthday was a gift from our daughter who had had a wonderful meal here with her husband and she wanted us to share the experience. As we live in West London, as far to the left of the tube map as 'Hackney Wick". is to the right, it was quite a long journey and to a part of London we did not know. But boy was it worth the travel time! A delightful simply designed restaurant with incredible service. Relaxed and friendly yet 'perfect'. A small menu with the opportunity to have a 'tasting menu', which our daughter had had and we didn't. We had (as recommended) five dishes 'to share', all of which were out of this world. Truly incredible food. It is a fish restaurant but it is not fish like you. have ever tasted before. It is not cheap! Well, it wouldn't be but our lunch, plus a pudding we shared and two glasses of beautiful Chablis each, came to over £200. It was worth it, I guess that is relative but then you don't go to a place like Cornerstone unless you are wanting a gastronomic treat.

The food is incredible, the flavours, the effort and prep going to each meal, the presentation and everything is just so delicious. I am not surprised this place has Michelin star as the food is fantastic. When it comes to rest I would say it is just about to get the star. However, this is just my personal taste. I am not fan of the decor but it goes well with East London vibe (honestly just personal preference). The service is good, loved also seeing staff having fun whilst cooking. I just prefer cosier places but then so many others adore this ambience and vibe. However, food is worth it. Expect to pay around 300 per 2. We paid 350 £ which I thought was high but then the food was amazing quality.

It was good to be back at one of our favourite restaurants on saturday when we made our Magnificent 7th visit to Cornerstone. I'm also glad to say the standard of food and service that we felt was raised to the next level on our...

Wow this place was great! The food is sensational and I have dietary restrictions which they were more than happy to accommodate and cater for! Will be visiting again!

We went on Saturday 1st August armed with a hefty £200 voucher. Visually a lovely space with the kitchen in the centre of the room. The positives are easily summarized - the dressed oysters are world class (£5 each) - especially the lightly pickled ones...

To start with, I never write reviews but I was so disappointed in this instance I felt it was necessary. I was so excited to eat here, being a chef myself and having followed Tom Browns career from Great British Menu and even eating at...

Visited last night. The food presentation was top draw and the flavour matched. We went for the chefs selection which was a perfect mix of light ever so tasty dishes mixed with some very indulgent naughty treats. It was a 7 course menu and from...

The food here is truly outstanding. Every dish is beautifully balanced, the fish is perfectly cooked and each mouthful is a delight. But the portions are minute and the prices ambitious: take the scallop dish; it was precisely cooked and delightfully flavoured with the coral;...

We have become regular visitors here and it never fails to delight us. The food is simply stunning - my current favourites are the scallops and the oysters, whilst Mr Eastendbird would happily chomp his way through a bucketload of the bread and pate. Service...

The food is truly amazing! Absolutely lovely place. However... the bill arrived without asking for it and then a waiter arrived with our coats saying they had people waiting. Really sour end to our evening, didn’t appreciate being rushed out like that.

Amazing dining experience. If you are looking for a great little seafood restaurant in London, this is one of the places to go. Amazing selection of small dishes to share in this beautifully set restaurant. If you are a bit of a foody, you also...

We finally made it here and having to cancel for various reason three times before making it happy. Man, was it worth the wait. The restaurant itself is in a rather unprepossessing new building, challenging given this to create somewhere with atmosphere but this was...

I don’t know where the bad reviews for this place could have come from.... I literally love this place so much! From the moment we arrived I was so excited, I love the location, the decor is insane (I would love to know where the...

Almost a Michelin star! We had a brilliant time at Cornerstone and it was great to see Tom Brown in the open kitchen in the middle of the restaurant! The mackerel for us was phenomenal! Probably our favourite of the night and also (can’t remember...

Got sick. Like - very sick. Came out of all ends for a few days. Came about a couple hours after eating here, and let's just say from what came out - I can be certain it was from here I got sick. Also and...

Mi marido, Mark, y sólo tenía las mejores patatas fritas y pastel vegetariano. "crujiente" es el nombre del restaurante y eso es exactamente lo que te dan en sus fichas superiores. Aparte de eso, Kahn, el propietario, es uno de los mejores propietarios de negocios que hemos conocido en Londres. Este restaurante es un trabajo de amor a él y el orgullo que se toma en que sirven la mejor comida es evidente en la calidad. Conseguir te bacalao pescado y patatas fritas crujientes lo antes posible. Estarás feliz de haberlo hecho.

First of all its terrible how one has to use a card and tap your pin numbers on a tablet size screen that is not near to the user, hence stretching over the counter and anyone in the shop if wanted could see what's been pressed. Absolutely no privacy plus I was not even told how much the coffee's are or given a receipt. But the worst of this visit was once I had paid I was told to go outside and wait at a window or them to be made, It was raining I was freezing and the man who I might have been new took 7 mins to make 2 coffee's whilst I waited outside getting cold. Maye I could understand this method if the shop were busy. I could have easily stood inside from the rain and wait for the coffee's The coffee was pleasant would have been nice if there was a choice of a medium instead of only a small. cup it would have been nice if it was warmer not tepid

Recientemente ha sido con amigos a la GRAN "Construir un ladrillo Lego' Exposiciones (vale la pena una visita), cuando nos preguntamos Road, el Brick Lane / Shoreditch nueva supuestamente moda zona, y vimos un restaurante que llevó nuestro lujoso, especialmente como un par de nosotros sólo comer pescado, "Sencillamente pescado'. En el cruce de Bethnal Green Road y de la concurrida Shoreditch High Street, justo al principio de la casilla Park ( Un pop-up Mall), la entrada es por pasos concretos empinados, atractivo elegante creo que no, pero obviamente creo que moderno. Hay un ascensor que entiendo. Afortunadamente, tenían espacio, así que nos fuimos.
