Double Standard in Camden - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I initially thought that this was a great spot for drinks in London. However when ordering a bottle of rose wine, we realised too late that the MUCH more expensive bottle of wine had been opened and poured. It's a massive con by the restaurant/hotel. Be very careful what you order here and double check bottles as they are opened!

Staff are lovely. But the food is hit and miss. Chicken burger is great but the waffle very dry. Had to send it back twice. Love the decor but I don't think the food is good enough to come back.

Terrible experience, went for bottomless brunch. Drinks were not topped up throughout, one person's food was overcooked, one person received incorrect meal, then once they got the correct one the chicken was raw. Emailed them about experience, said they would get back to us but haven't heard anything in over a week.

interesting building, beautifully designed. Very poor service. we were waiting over half an hour to be served. then we moved to the bar as we thought there is no table service. situation at the bar was the same, no one approached us until we asked to be served. cocktails bellow average. nice venue and ambience on weekends but for the prices you charge - plus 15% service charge - much more is expected.

Poor service, visited 25/02/2024 and had to wait 15 minutes to be served, despite being seated at the bar by the waitress, and it not being that busy. We had to ask 3 times to be served until someone finally took our order. We felt unwanted, and as soon as we were about to leave, the staff had cleaned our glasses up before we were even out of the door! So took 15 minutes to serve us but no time to clean up after us. One waitress waived a drink off the bill as an apology, but still not good enough. Don’t go here if you look a certain way, you will get judged and deemed not good enough for them.

Fabulous venue but absolutely shocking prices for drinks. Bought drinks at the bar and each time charged a £10 service charge. And to boot the bar service couldn’t be slower. Fantastic vibe, DJ but how do you get 3 drinks to £51? Bottle of wine, added a £10 service charge. Very underhand.

£26.45 for a single G&T and medium glass of wine at the Standard hotel bar. That included £3.45 "service charge", despite the fact that I went to the bar, ordered, and returned with the drinks myself. Oh, and the bar was rammed so we had to drink in the hotel reception. Blatant price gouging. Try The Harrison pub just around the back, for a far more atmospheric experience at less than half the price. Wish I'd gone there first.

Had a fabulous experience at the Double Standard! The smiling staff and excellent service elevate the atmosphere and the overall ambiance. Special shout-out to Bernardo for the excellent cocktails!

Una experiencia espectacular, bonito lugar, buena comida pero ante todo excelente y cálida atención de Aliya

I had dinner with my family three days ago and I was an amazing experience. Aliya’s service was wonderful. Supper attentive

The Sweetest Bar at the Standard Hotel provided an exceptional evening, with a chic ambiance and diverse cocktail menu. Bartender Carmine stole the show, exhibiting unparalleled mixology skills and a welcoming charm. Each drink was a masterpiece, and Carmine's expertise added a personalized touch to the experience. The attention to detail, stylish presentation, and lively atmosphere combined to create an extraordinary night out. For those in search of sophistication and delightful libations, the Sweetest Bar, guided by Carmine's expert hands, is a must-visit destination for a memorable night.

I sit at the bar and ordered drinks, bar atmosphere is stunning, besides that I met Kle, he is friendly and kind person, I really enjoyed being there, I look forward to visiting again when I back to London It’s the bar doubles your standard ;)

We had the most amazing dinner & drinks, Azad was very attentive & friendly - cocktails were fab & food was faultless - we will definitely be back! The staff were attentive and warm in their manner. They were polite also.

My girlfriend and I often go for drinks at Double Standard, and every time Aaliyah is there, we always have a great service which makes our experience that much better. She is always really welcoming and attentive. The music in the lounge area matches the vibe and the volume is just right. The fire place is probably our favourite spot.

Double Standard has slowly become me and my girl’s favourite spot. We love visiting here, and the staff are so welcome! Particularly, Aaliyah, who has served us and always been absolutely patient with us too. She convinced us to try the sticky toffee pudding, and now we get it every time we go. The atmosphere is beautiful, it’s so relaxing and there’s a fire place right next to where me and my baby always sit. The music is calming, drinks are good and everyone is so friendly!

Simply exceptional experience, I highly recommend it if you are a cocktail lover and enjoy great vibe and ambiance. The staff were more than happy to engage in conversations about the menu, offering insights into the inspiration behind each drink, which was fun and interesting, thanks Yuno and Angon :-) The biggest shout out however goes to Massimo, who tailered a bespoke cocktail to my preferences that totally blew my mind!It was definitely the pinnacle of the night. Soooooo glad i found this place.

The food was yummy, and good portions, which I wasn’t expecting, to be honest. The sauces exceeded my expectation- the cajun one tastes like pepperoni, and the fried chicken sauce was very satisfying. We were served by Nas who was very friendly and constantly there but not in fact in an annoying way, rather in a helpful way. When he came over whilst we were eating we were able to tell him that the Hotbucha (spicy kombucha) tasted terrible he gave us a new drink free of charge, which was way nicer!! Deffo recommend the Pina Colada (non alcholic). Unfortunately they didn’t have the bean burger when I went which I think is the only veggie main on their menu 🥲. Be warned though the drinks are expensivvvve. Cool interior and fun to watch walk through a posh hotel to get to the restaurant:), just opposite Kings X The claw machine to get sauces failed to serve us but was fun trying…

We had an excellent time at Morley’s x Heinz. We ordered the caviar chicken, chicken burgers and the wing tower - all were delicious albeit a bit overpriced but to be expected at a pop-up! Our server Nordine was great and totally made the evening! Would recommend a visit to any chicken lovers!

A very special night for me and my girlfriend, the cocktail were absolutely delicious and the service offered by Matteo was just superbe!! I’ll be back for sure.

One of my fave bars in London! Amazing drinks and wonderful service. Special shout out to Mo for going the extra mile for us.

Trains are currently cancelled out of Euston on account of an emergency. I walked past 12 pubs walking towards The Double Standard, because I wanted to sit in the garden and have a beer while I waited for the train service to resume. I was...

Called for a drink before our train from Kings Cross with 1 hour available Extremely slow service (10 mins to find us a seat in an empty bar, and 20 mins from ordering to drinks arrival!) despite 4 staff behind the bar and few customers....

We had an outstanding Sunday brunch here. The service was good and the food was exceptional. We all got traditional English breakfast, I’d highly recommend. The highlight though was the Bloody Mary, one of the best I’ve had anywhere.

Nice looking place , but really hard to get waitresses attention as she was far more interested in young men at the bar than us. Put in our order and she forgot part of it. Meal was great , but had to remind the waiter...

I came here for a quick drink with friends. The door staff were lovely, as was the person who showed us to our table. The place was nicely presented, but the loud disco music playing at 6pm made it difficult to chat. Two of us...

Perhaps it was our seven-mile walk along the Thames, ending with a tour of the Tower of London on a chilly day, but the chicken and mushroom pie was magical. Perhaps our server Cherry sprinkled some charmed magic over our dishes and drinks, because the...

The bar at 10th floor is great! Best view amd the service and drinks is best! Then we tried the double standard bistro on the ground floor and i got the best piñacolada from Christian!!! Great service amd great drinks!!!

We’ve just had the most amazing evening at the Double Standard, served by the wonderful Daniella. We had a table all evening to be able catch up after a few months away

I visited with my family last week for an impromptu lunch. The staff were really attentive, friendly & never far should we need anything. The decor is also really lovely with well spaced tables. Reminded me of a film set! Everything very carefully thought out....

Visited the Double Standard Bar at The Standard Hotel for the first time recently & was extremely impressed with the warm welcome & superb service thereafter in what was a very busy bar at the time. Two members of staff in particular, Sarah Serrao &...

Fresh off the train for our stay in London, we visited this bar/restaurant for a coffee initially but this turned into a light lunch as the ambience and service made us want to extend our stay. The food was expensive but tasty as you would...

I did not stay here but ate in the Hotel bar, Double Standard. The food was extremely overpriced and terrible. A Fish Finger sandwich was £14 and beef chips for £8. For that I would expect hand cut triple cooked chips in Beef dripping, however,...

Thanks so much to Chloe for the fab customer service, will definitely be coming back for some more great drinks

Enjoyed our visit to the double standard had two lovely cocktails and the cauliflower bites were to die for. We arrived at 8 o’clock at night not to crowded nice chilled out vibe, nice friendly staff, would recommend.

I popped in for a quick fish finger sandwich around 9pm after work. Table for one as I was working away from home. All seemed fine until I waited a very long time for my simple dinner of sandwich and fries. Asked if I needed...

We arrived late for a cocktail on the way home, I’m not sure why they were still letting people in, as soon as we had ordered they started wrapping the optics in cling film and we were told that they were closing! The bar was...

We’re here for our anniversary and when we told them, they were so attentive and fun. Accommodating with me husbands ridiculous requests! What a team

Fantastically attentive service by Olivia, and great ambience and drinks. Best bar in the Kings Cross area. Will be back

Had a fab night here and Chloe and Krissy behind the bar were excellent - couldn’t fault them and amazing drinks.

Came here for an off the cuff, mid afternoon drink as I’d heard good things. We were not disappointed. Awesome decor and really friendly staff. My friend wanted a cocktail named ‘The Godfather’ and the lovely barmaid Chloe delivered! Will be back for sure!!

WOW…perfect Manhattans one evening…perfect pint pour and wine pour another evening…BUT…as a customer service trainer…our bartender Michael was perfect!!!…he has 12 years experience and was willing to share technique…extended his hand to thank us and he was extremely personable…trust me your drink will be perfect!…thank...

Well, a 2nd visit to the pulsating bar on the ground level of the Standard and they didn't skip a beat. This time the bartenders Marcio and Carmine rocked it with great smiles, helpful suggestions, and even tho they were super busy, made every effort...

Had an incredible martini at Double Standard and my bartender, Chloe, was fantastic! Would definitely recommend popping in here for a drink.

We were removed from the roof by torrential rain, and ended up downstairs in the Double Stamdard bar. Enjoyed the cocktails we tried, and had fantastic service from Chloe. Thanks 🙂

First time visiting and had such a warm welcome! Was served by a girl named Olivia in the bar who recommended us a cocktail which was an excellent choice and I was very pleased with the service. The vibe overall was very good, will deffo...

I honestly don't even know where to start describing this experience. I have never felt compelled to ever leave a bad review in my life, and I'm someone who eat out a lot, but rarely complains, however this was terrible. I booked bottomless brunch for...

Great bar and service and not too expensive considering how lovely the decor was. Definitely worth a visit if in kings cross

Amazing visit Reason for coming back gear is due to Michale amazing bar tender who to our surprise was in again He made our visits Such a great guy ! If any one visits hear please get Michale to get you a bloody Marie it’s...

First things first, the venue was lovely. Exquisite interior decor and definitely seemed high class. We’d come for brunch and were originally advised that we’d only qualify for one hour’s bottomless (out of the two that were advertised), as the last sitting was at 1500...

We ordered chicken supreme that was supposed to be a large plate. We were served a small piece of chicken on a medium sized plate without any rice or vegetables. The chicken looked very lonely all on its own. The sauce was watery and nothing...

I was at the double standard last night with my partner and a friend. It was an unexpected disastrous evening. We ordered 3 burgers. The 2 came on time and we were waiting for my friend’s burger that was not coming for the next 10...

We came for a date night out and had made a booking in advance. The guy at the front door of the hotel was very friendly and welcoming and it left me with a great first impression. We were seated next to another table of...

After a long train journey, I just wanted a pint of lager outside the station ahead of a last onward journey home. And a board suggesting a pub if you went left into an alley sounded new, instead of O'Neills one block up, which is...

Double Standard has fast become my favourite place to grab a drink and kill some time when I arrive in London for an event. It has a chilled and laid back vibe. The drinks are all very reasonably priced given the location

After a few months out of town, a Friday night out with the hubby was much needed. We arrived looking for a few cocktails and a spot of dinner and were pleasantly surprised by how the evening unfolded. After a little confusion with our booking,...

I love this bar. The balance between looking stylish while still being welcoming and comfortable is spot on. We enjoyed our bar food and prices were as I would expect for a central London hotel bar. Phoebe and the other bar staff looking after us...

OMG this place seems to train it's staff to make everything a chore and socially awkward. When you walk in just to have a drink in the bar, they make out it's a very difficult thing for them to deal with. This has happened twice,...

We were looking forward to trying the Standard. We came here for dinner. We stood waiting to be served at the front counter in the restaurant for absolutely ages and were totally ignored despite several staff walking by (the restaurant was empty). I called over...

Lovely bar/ restaurant with great interiors and spacious! Food was good and the service was excellent. Special shout out to our server Jacob!

This a review of dinner only. It was a tiny menu with only 3 or 4 "mains" to choose from. I had The Burger at £15.50. The burger itself was tiny, about the circumference of a McD's cheesburger but the whole thing was maybe twice...

Saw this place was voted for best burger, we had to go there!!! This place has such a cool atmosphere with its 70s interior and amazing cocktails, the staff are so friendly, I wish I got there names to give them a shoutout!! The burger...

As a vegetarian, I found the brunch menu at the Standard completely baffling. Even as a resident of East London, I really can't bring myself to pay £9 for avocado on toast. We arrived at 12:30, and though there were several vegetarian breakfast-type options, the...

Would rather give a 3.5 but i feel a 3 would be unjust so have given a 4. Pretty bar and terrace, service was generally great, thank you! Sadly later in the evening we were allowed to order drinks and then as soon as they...

Nice service but terrible food. One of the worst burgers I have ever eaten. Blue cheese sauce pungent and overpowering. Bacon like a piece of leather. Just awful. Didn’t finish it - the smell lingered even after getting home..

Had a Christmas get together with friends and although our table was running late we were immediately offered alternate seating and got great service from all the team. Everybody went out of their way, were flexible and accomodating and we were impressed. Food was great...

Second time here in three weeks given it has a heated outdoor terrace and so is a good option for meeting out with friends while abiding by social distancing guidelines. The food is decent (the burger was especially good). The service needs work and this...

They rang me straight back when there was a booking issue at this difficult time and did everything to resolve :) I will update my review and hopefully this will become a regular place. The menu looks amazing and the staff are obviously friendly having...

Went here for the first time this morning for breakfast. The pancakes (actually crepes) were delicious. Drowning in syrup, with fruit on top, it was just the right size for breakfast but the flavor and texture was just divine. Yummy!

My friends and I went for Bottomless Brunch on a Sunday and it was a really great experience! The host, Annie, greeted us in an incredibly warm, friendly way and this lovely service continued throughout our visit. She was kind and attentive and kept checking...

I would recommend booking as it gets busy, they don't have a massive vegan range but what they do have is great quality. the cauliflower, is a must! OOO and the vegan Caesar salad! I would go back for that.

So disappointing to see an establishment like The Standard flagrantly breaching the government guidelines on social distancing. A group of at least 13 from multiple households (couples and friends all arriving separately) all sitting together on the outside terrace for bottomless brunch. The maximum is...

Very accomodating even though we didn't book a table in Valentine's! I have been coming back for the brisket sandwich. Just delish! Amazing staff.

Lovely cocktails and the barman was great - gave us great recommendations based on our preferences. Bar had great ambience - sat at the bar and then sat outside under the heaters - will definitely be back.

This is a review about the awful bar experience we received last night in the bar. What a strange set up. There were around 10 hosts, and even more waiters but the bar staff was really terrible. We were asked first to go to a...

Came here for a quick after work drink with a friend as I was looking for a decent quality beer in the area. The bouncer was hesitant to let us in as I guess we weren’t the correct clientele (not ‘suits’ like the rest of...

We ate here the first night we arrived and were welcomed with open arms though I am sure we looked exhausted. Got lucky and were able to get seating quickly. The food was delicious and waitstaff attentive - no issues when I made special requests...

This place is an absolute hidden gem and extremely welcomed to the Kings Cross area. The venue boasts various areas to explore, each fitted with its own atmosphere and decor, and a menu list which is hard to beat. Served by a purple bandana wearing...

Really lovely place . The bar is well managed even under pressure ; Fabio on top of the service being reliable and super professional during the service . Really suggested this place if you want to enjoy music and a lovely ginger Margarita.

Great ambience and excellent Old Fashioneds. Attentive service especially from self-proclaimed new-boy ‘Darren’. Management should nurture the potential and dedication that this young man showed. A major asset to your brand.

This is the place to go if you want to forget about the latest food trends and give your arteries a well earned blast of hard liquor and cholesterol. The decor is pure 70s and is a welcome departure from the grey Euston Road. I’ve...

Amazing drinks. Delicious food. Worth traveling across town to check out. Absolutely worth going back.

Spacious bar with enticing range of cocktails and good value wine list. Interesting bar menu provides tasty attractively presented snacks and more substantial dishes. Certainly a chic environment in which to meet friends or business associates.

Popped in for some drinks - cocktails were gorgeous and it's such a chilled, cool vibe - would definitely go back, especially as it's so close to St Pancras! Oh and they have the best pimientos de padron outside of Spain!

I came here with friends and I ordered a mojito. I usually drink mojito so know how it should taste. What i ended up with did not resemble a mojito in either colour or taste, very bitter and no sugar. My friend took it back...

Came here as heard the burger was so good. Wasnt dissapointed. Lovely. Also the chicken bites to start.only complaint was main came just after the starter and was badly timed. Excellent service from Mo.

went into here as we stayed at the hotel, lovely staff, cool chilled vibe an dplenty of choice for drinks

Called in just for a drink with business contacts. Clean and new with some handy outside space but the service at the bar was slow and I was quite surprised to incur a ‘service charge’ of nearly £3 on three drinks having taken myself to...

I approached the Hotel , right away a big smile welcoming me. A member of the reception staff walked me around like Cicerone was super knowledgable, enthusiastic and kind. I sat at the Double standard , the welcoming was friendly ( Massimo and Barbara are...
