Stopped by for a drink but decided to have a bite to eat. Food was delish, calamari perfectly cooked. Staff were attentive and personable. Couldn’t ask for more.

Unfriendly service and bad food. There were six of us on an evening beginning of the week. They were unfriendly staff who don’t like their jobs and we ordered 6 different dishes which which were all below standard.

Great pub, food,service atmosphere excellent. Only downside was the disabled toilet - wet floor, dirty and the door was stiff and impossible to close. This definitely needs improvement, especially the door ! Shame as it's such a nice venue.

We have lived in Primrose Hill for over 30 years and often had a pint of two in the Engineers, followed by a few share plates. Tonight was our wedding anniversary so we thought we'd eat there. It is the first time in my lifetime that I had the service charge removed, service complete pants! We were told they were short staffed but there was plenty of staff floating around doing nothing. No heaters working in the garden, we tried 4, no staff helped. We had to ask for the table to be cleaned, clean serviettes, then for red sauce/mayonnaise (which didn't arrive) We had to call staff constantly for our requests, no acceptable. Do yourselves a favour and go to The Albert Princess of Wales Landsdown.... Overall the food was 7/10 of which is top end prices. Engineers may be spend more on staff training than uniforms! Very unsatisfied customers!

Great food and friendly service, we came as part of a larger group and had lunch as a team of 12 the food was fresh and tasty, and the Lamb in particular was very good! Service was attentive, but not overbearing would definitely recommend for a quick drink or bite to eat.

A stunning pub with a lovely outdoor area and friendly staff but unfortunately the most disappointing shredded duck salad I’ve been served …unfortunately it wasn’t shredded but chopped up fat + raw looking skin …it literally looked like scrap ends-waiting to show it to a staff member whilst feeling queezey we paid on the bar and left , a real disappointment following past visits and the high praise here on twitter

The staff are very friendly and accommodating- they moved our booking outside as the sun was shining and doted on our dog which we loved!

Brunel Bar | Trivia Night | 11 April 2024 My partner and I hosted a Charity Trivia Fundraiser for around 40 people at The Engineer in the Brunel Bar last night and it was a great success. I reached out to numerous pubs in the Primrose Hill and The Engineer was the most helpful. The team at The Engineer set up the room perfectly and were very helpful throughout the entire event. Ruby was fantastic! We can't thank The Engineer team enough for having us! Thank you.

Visited with a group of about 12, and we all really enjoyed the atmosphere, food and service! The beer and wine list was extensive and the chap behind the bar was happy to offer a couple of tasters before we made our choices. Whilst the weather wasn’t up to much on this occasion, I look forward to returning to try out their beer garden later in the year.

We our Christmas party here on the 14/12/2023 and I honestly say it was the worst experience and Christmas party I ever attended, we booked the Brunel room upstairs which was bear, cold and had zero Christmas feel about it no decorations not even a Christmas cracker or Christmas song being played the food was poor and was mainly salad with veg stick and dips, again had zero festive feel about it we paid paid £40 a head for circa 60 people and found this most disappointing.

Excited to visit after reading earlier reviews. However despite a promising start-warm welcome at the bar and order taken promptly the evening went downhill. ‘Gourmet’ burger and chips was like fast food put on a plate-no sides and not well presented. Fish and chips salty. We were not offered deserts or drinks. To be fair the bartender could not have handled it better when we told him but by then our birthday celebration was done there. I can see similar feedback in September 2023 with a response from the Engineer-things are not resolved. You only get one chance at a first impression and this experience fell short for us. Your staff need some training and to stop gossiping at the food counter ignoring their patrons.

Great spot for drinks with friends! Weather was absolutely horrendous; thunder, lightening, you name it but sat outside in the beer garden under the canopy at the back, with the heaters and stayed perfectly dry and cosy.

Magical. Unlike Starvin' Marvin below Stumbled upon this gem bordering the Grand Union Canal. Attention to detail from the moment we set foot inside with a warm welcome from the bar staff and then the host! Unusual for a London pub. They even ensured we had a table in the garden upon asking (we waited for a few mins at the bar and were told we would be priority for a table should one come up). Before we had even sat down our drinks were delivered to the table. Classy. The food was delicious; full of flavours and clearly made by skilled chefs. The garden was warmly lit, dare I say it romantic, my date was suitably impressed! We will be back. As for Marvin below, don't listen to a miserable grouch who bangs on about the good old days. The time for living is now and the Enginer is vivacious and full of fun times ready to be had.

Great pub with great food and great drinks. We came to the pub on Saturday and we were shown to a nice table, large enough for the six of us. Had some great beers which was recommended to us by Tom, I think he was an assistant manager but I feel that he would be on track to become a great manager in the next 2-3 years. We stayed longer than expected so had to have some food. Tom, the assistant manager, again served us and recommended a shredded duck salad, which I'm sure would be fine for some southern fairies but we were from 'up north' so we had steaks instead, again some training to become a manager needed there but I'm sure he'll get the hang of it soon. Over all a great visit and we will return again when we are next in London. Tom, assistant manager - keep doing what you are doing and learn from the other managers around you and I'm sure you'll be a general manager soon.

Food was really good, the Velvet Devil wine was superb and the Apple and Gooseberry crumble was the only thing that made my little man stand to attention all holiday! My wife loved it!

I felt I had to write a review further to a fabulous work event held at The Engineer yesterday afternoon - buffet and drinks in their beautiful garden - for a group of 45 people. The whole event was superbly overseen by Tom, the manager, providing a high level of personal attention, great communication and flexibility from start to finish. He happily made a number of changes to the buffet menu to accommodate the varied needs of our guests. Plenty of friendly staff were on hand on the day, serving the buffet bang on time, and the drinks swiftly. And the quality of the buffet itself was fantastic. The venue is a gem and I can't thank you enough for making the afternoon such a success. I'm sure you'll be seeing us again soon! :)

The food took ages to come out we were waiting almost an hour for mains! We had to call the staff to clear our tables when they should’ve been doing this anyway. When I finally got my food which was roast pork belly, the Yorkshire pudding was burnt and the pork chewy. It wasn’t a great meal to be honest. Also the waiter completely forgot to write down my dads starter so when me and my aunts starter came out we had to wait ages for his only to turn out his wasn’t even ordered. Won’t be returning again unfortunately.

. As locals, we used to visit this pub frequently. It used to be known for it's excellent food, Not now!First of all, the staff were lovely. Couldnt have been more solicitous. However - the fish and chips failed in every way. The portion of fish was skimpy and tasteless, the very dry peas were just frozen peas, mashed with a fork, and a bit of mint added. The' triple cooked chips we sent back. Another portion came, a bit browner but just as flaccid as the first serve. Nothing was seasoned.There is an outside space which looks pleasant, but Mitchell and Butler who I believe are the chain that own this pub -should be made aware of the lack of care in the kitchen as far as we're concerned.

We made a booking online for 6pm on a Sunday without any issue. We arrived and was told that they'd sold out of roast dinners. A little disappointed, but but surprised as it was quite late. The server gave us the lunch menu and then also the dinner menu so we had lots to choose from. We were asked what we were drinking after shortly sitting down. We asked for a bottle of wine and our server took the order. 10-15 minutes later we hadn't been given any drinks and another server asked if they could assist. We told them we'd already ordered and described the server. Minutes later we were told that there wasn't a record of our order and would we like to order again. By this point we both saw red. We were unhappy that we had been forgotten about. We knew there were another 6-7 pubs in the area we could go to. As we meet e or original server came up to us and apologised for the oversight but by then we were adamant we were leaving. However, despite this poor service, this is a lovely pub where we've spent many a night in the garden enjoy the atmosphere and the usually top notch service. Having worked in hospitality all my life, I know that things can go wrong. The staff were very apologetic and very polite and sincere. O can't fault them for that. I will continue to return but will be looking for a new venue for our friends get together next month as I don't want a repeat of what happened tonight. But the good certainly outweighs the bad .considering other visits which is why I'll still score the Engineer 5/5

The Engineer in Primrose Hill used to be a favourite some years ago. So we returned as a family for a father’s day, but from start to finish our experience was dreadful. The host, also the manager was rude and quite angry at me when I asked if another more child friendly table might be available to accommodate a pram/high chair, & my baby bump. something I requested when booking weeks earlier. The main courses were wrong and came out an hour after we arrived, (an impossible delay with two young kids to keep seated). No apology for the delay or error was offered. The food wasn’t great. Bland meat & very fishy kids fish. Then - as a finale, we were given the wrong bill which we paid only to be chased outside like bill skippers to be escorted back in to settle it. The manager agreed to remove the wrong mains from the bill but this was little consolation. Terrible customer service, bland food, an awful all round experience. I noticed he was busy entertaining his friends as we left. I’d never recommend or re-visit The Engineer again. Anywhere else would have be better.

We booked a table for a friend's birthday after reading many good reviews but we were quite disappointed with our overall experience. The service was slow, our starters took 30mins to arrive and another 40mins for mains. All four of us ordered their Sunday roasts, pork belly and beef. They came cold, roast potatoes were burnt and hard, pork belly was dry. Would not recommend ordering. They also told us there was no lamb available but the table behind us who arrived later managed to order lamb, where did it suddenly come from? Also don't order mojito, it had no taste of anything and the hot chocolate was more like hot milk. Won't be recommending this pub to friend's.

Con la situación actual de la pandemia, era evidente que nuestros planes iban a tener que reducirse, pero decidimos seguir adelante con una boda íntima, solo con familiares y amigos muy cercanos.Vivimos localmente y fuimos al Engineer a finales de agosto para ver si podían ayudarnos con nuestra pequeña recepción. Tom y el equipo del Engineer estaban felices de ayudar y fueron increíblemente flexibles, comprensivos y serviciales, especialmente dadas las reglas y regulaciones en constante cambio.Tom y el equipo fueron conscientes de la seguridad y las precauciones necesarias en el clima actual, sin dejar de ser optimistas y alegres, asegurándose de que tanto nosotros como nuestros invitados nos sintiéramos cómodos y cuidados.El maravilloso chef trabajó con nosotros para hacer un menú personalizado solo para nosotros. La comida era deliciosa y con una excelente relación calidad-precio.Estamos muy contentos de haber elegido este pequeño pub maravilloso para nuestra boda. No podríamos haber elegido mejor. Nos sentimos completa y absolutamente atendidos en todos los sentidos, con una comida y un servicio maravillosos, nos permitieron a nosotros y a nuestros invitados unos momentos de alegría en lo que obviamente es un momento realmente difícil para todos y especialmente para los de la industria hotelera. El hecho de que Team at the Engineer todavía brindara un servicio tan acogedor y atento en este entorno es un testimonio de ellos y no puedo recomendarlos más.Nuestro más sincero agradecimiento a Tom y al equipo del Engineer por ayudarnos a crear maravillosos recuerdos del día de nuestra boda.

En primer lugar, el personal fue amable y atento.La comida estaba bien. Tarifa de pub ligeramente superior a la media. Los puerros que venían con el bacalao tenían arena a través de ellos, lo cual no era genial.Debo decir que no sentí que se hubiera hecho mucho en términos de controles Covid, lo mínimo en el mejor de los casos. Al comer en la taberna al aire libre, las mesas en sí pueden estar a un metro de distancia, pero una vez que tienes a la gente sentada a su alrededor, puedes estar tan cerca como 50 cm de la persona detrás de ti; yo estaba prácticamente espalda con espalda con otro ¡persona! Además del hecho de que había fumadores a nuestro alrededor, no se había hecho nada para crear una sección de no fumadores. Hay una botella de desinfectante con bomba junto a la puerta principal y un letrero que pide a la gente que lo use; no se aplica y no vi a ningún cliente usarlo (tal vez es comprensible dado que no es un dispensador sin contacto y tendrías que tocarlo como todos los anteriores a ti). Se utilizaron menús en papel en lugar de códigos QR; esto es algo tan simple de implementar en lugar de necesitar que los clientes toquen y manipulen los menús. Salero y pimentero sobre la mesa para usos múltiples en lugar de sobres de un solo uso. Al observar al personal que limpia las mesas, usan el mismo paño en cada mesa en lugar de materiales de limpieza desechables.El personal no usa máscaras; me doy cuenta de que no es obligatorio, sin embargo, muchos restaurantes lo están haciendo para mayor protección.Finalmente, los baños estaban sucios y, en el mejor de los casos, se limpiaron / desinfectaron al final del día anterior; entré y volví a salir.Tenía la esperanza de encontrar un nuevo lugar habitual para cenar al aire libre, pero dado el intento muy limitado de higiene y controles adicionales en el entorno actual, lamentablemente no regresaremos.

It was half empty at lunch time, on a Sunday.All other pubs in the area were full so we'd thought we would give this place a chance.Initial thoughts. Pretentious, too cool to acknowledge us when we walked in. Had to get someones attention to be seated for food.Although it claims to be, it is not very dog friendly. We were seated at a sticky, grubby table with our tiny dog. Before we could get him to settle and sleep on our coat which we laid on top of the bench, a rather rude man came marching over and shouted at us in a jobsworth manner to keep the dog on the floor for hygiene reasons!Don't make me laugh! This is a grubby little pub, not the classy establishment it desperately wants to be! This would be more believable if the table was clean to begin with. Clearly this man is not cut out for the service industry.There are plenty of other establishments in the area to spend my money. So we got up and left. The York and Albany welcomed us warmly and had no issue with us having our little dog sit on one of their plush armchairs next to us while we dined.

I couldn't get comfy on either the (over) high leather benches or the hard traditional wooden dining chairs. However, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable and the Aspalls was the best I have tasted anywhere. It was just a quick pit stop for a drink on the way to a reserved table nearby but the food and bar snacks being brought past our table seemed very nice and we would try them on another visit if we hadn't made alternative arrangements. Good 'proper' pub in a nice location.

Having booked a table, I was trying to get some clarity about their policy regarding the different menus and pre-ordering. I was respectful, but when I pointed out that there seemed to be a lack of willingness to understand my queery, the colleague got defensive, even after I had cancelled the booking, having got nowhere. Don't get me wrong, I don't expect the kind of customer service where they bow and scrape (on fact I don't like it), but this conversation was leaving a distinct feeling of being unwelcome. I even received an email to say my booking was declined as if to rub it in. This restaurant is popular, but this conversation leaves an impression of not caring about new customers.

Este pub ha ido cuesta abajo. Mi compañía tuvo tres almuerzos de Navidad aquí. Cada vez tuvimos que esperar más de 2 horas. Fuimos los primeros en el pub pero no tenían algunos de los artículos en el menú. Sin personal suficiente y, en general, han dejado caer sus estándares.

Lovely gastro pub a step away from busy Primrose Hill and Camden. The food is great and staff friendly and helpful. Lovely place to spend an afternoon!

Appalling service. Started upon arrival where the bar staff couldn’t direct us to our table - because it wasn’t their job - that we needed to wait for one of the waiters. The food service was very poor. Drinks arrived after the food. The waitress rolled her eyes when we asked for a pudding menu, despite having waited sometime since the plates where cleared. Needless to say she didn’t bring them and instead walked off and ignored the request.

Lovely peaceful spot with sea views. Window from the kitchen opens wide to the balcony with a breakfast bar the other side. Would definitely recommend!

Came here a couple of years ago and it was excellent. Now the food has gone down in quality. It's no longer a gastropub, just a pub that does expensive food (more expensive than Brown's for example). The waiter was excellent though - very attentive and fast.

Visited Camden for the day as we were going to a concert and found this pub near the venue. It's a great pub with very friendly staff especially the barman Alex who was very helpful, it has a very nice beer garden and we will definitely be going back again.

Nos detuvimos en el pub de ingenieros después de un paseo por el canal y encontramos una verdadera joya escondida. Alex lo recibió de inmediato y no pudo hacer lo suficiente para asegurarse de que nuestra visita fuera buena. Tuve una cerveza y mi compañero tenía una cerveza de verdad. Ambos sabían absolutamente divinos y se notaba que las tuberías se limpiaban regularmente, una pinta bien crujiente. Pasamos una hora más o menos en el jardín, que es de bastante buen tamaño y sería una hermosa trampa para el sol en los meses de verano. Mientras nos relajábamos disfrutando del ambiente, Alex se tomó el tiempo para preguntarnos sobre nuestro día y lo que nos trajo a la zona. Es la hospitalidad excepcional como esta lo que realmente hace un lugar. ¡Volveremos! ¡Bien hecho el ingeniero!

Was in Primrose Hill for the view, a short walk down is The Engineer. We were a group 3, ordered 2 x roast lamb and 1 x rig eye steak. Food was presented nicely and tasted very well, enjoyed by all.

An example of how ‘destination pubs’ get lulled into complacency and become ‘bad food destination pubs’. The most awful Sunday roast we have had in a long time. Arrived cold with a spoonful of peas as the only green vegetables on the plate and a couple small sad looking ‘roast’ potatoes that were half cooked. All for nearly £20. Ordering extra roasties was a futile exercise as ended up with more sad looking half cooked roasties that no one wanted. Save your money. Don’t bother. At least not for a roast.

This pub is a London institution and a must-visit when in beautiful Primrose Hill. It's attractive inside (amazing wooden floor) and out (gorgeous garden with plenty of tables). Food is consistently delicious - watermelon and feta salad on a hot day hit the spot.

Nice open pub with a good selection of drinks and nice outdoor space in the back. Staff was extremely friendly, but the food was average and the price a little high.

We called in for a drink and a snack, 3 drinks and 3 bowls of chips ordered that came to just over £24 pounds and had to complain after waiting 50 minutes for our food, the people on the nearest 2 tables both admitting ordering way after us but got served long before us ..

Después de almorzar decentemente hace un par de semanas en el Engineer with friends, mi esposa y yo decidimos aprovechar el cupón del 25% que nos dieron anoche y reservamos una mesa unos días antes.

Não tenho costume de fazer avaliações, exceto quando encontro locais diferenciados. Fui com minha esposa, e foi uma experiencia muito agradável. Pelo local imaginei que iria pagar caro, mas pelo contrario. Deu para perceber o cuidado no preparo dos pratos, tudo muito gostoso, e barato. Pessoal é muito simpático, faço questão de voltar.

Durante un día, yo y mi otra mitad decidimos parar en el pub. Había un ambiente agradable y algunas personas felices. Pedí el domingo asado que venía con un increíble pudin de Yorkshire, papas bien asadas y una carne tierna y bonita, mi compañero pidió una hamburguesa vegana con papas fritas crujientes. Para rematar la comida teníamos pasteles de manzana. . . . . mmmmm. . . . sabroso.

When I lived in London I would dine at the engineer often. The staff were incredibly eclectic and attentive. Service was excellent and the two girls that owned it had a great eye for detail. the food was always great and in 5"years of going I never once had a bad meal. How things have changed. The food was dreadfully bland and looked like it was from a packet. The staff were pleasant but lacked the attentiveness of previous visits. I won't be returning.

Friendly service, nice atmosphere and good food. Worth a visit but book as it gets busy. A great venue for locals and visitors, nice buzz but not too busy.

Clearly a local favorite. Alex was a friendly host. We enjoyed the roast chicken and Aspall's on tap. Was the first time we (Californians) had Yorkshire pudding—delicious.

We came here for a Christmas lunch in a reserved room upstairs. I had fish and chips which was excellent. There’s also a reasonable choice of vegetarian food. It’s a nice friendly atmosphere and the staff were very busy but still made time to be friendly.

Good service,nice ambience & lovely food enjoyed by the whole party of people. If I had to criticise anything,it was a little bit too dark on the tables where we were eating but I would definitely go back. Nice relaxed and friendly place.

nice atmosphere, both inside and at the backyard. The food was just fine! I don't imagine that anybody would leave disappointed from this place!! And the smiling staff just adds to the experience.

This is quiet at lunchtimes in the week so you’ll get pretty good service in this quirky pub. The fish & chips were decent enough but the draft cider was out of stock. We were recommended an American canned craft cider which was frankly undrinkable and should be taken off sale. Unacceptable.

I went to meet friends for a Sunday roast, however the beef was rock hard like leather, the vegetables were like rock. Extremely bad so had to tell the waiter we don’t want to eat it. My friend said he was starving and felt forced to eat it. Never going there again

My wife and I visited Engineer with friends who suggested it. We thought they had eaten there before and we trusted there choice. I was very disappointed. It was a noisy old fashioned pub. If you lived 100 yds from it you would say ‘ can’t be bothered cooking let’s pop in for a quick meal’ I certainly wouldn’t travel to get there. The fish and chips were very fresh and tasty. And we all enjoyed our main courses. But a night out needs more than just good food. You need friendly staff nice surroundings etc. It felt ‘studenty’ if you know what I mean. Anyway in conclusion if you live close pop in, it’s not expensive.

Comimos en la terraza y no pudo ser mejor la experiencia. Ambiente super agradable, comida deliciosa y bastante rápidos en servir, aún estando a tope. La única pega es el precio, que se suben un poco a la parra, pero compensan con todo lo demás.

After a long day traveling, The Royal George was our first stop in London. So glad we did. Friendly Scottish banter, Ged and Sam couldn’t do enough for me and my family. If you are in the area, be sure to pay this place a visit. You won’t be disappointed We’ll be back 👍

Having arrived in London on a Saturday evening was worried about where we would eat and that it would be affordable. Stumbled across this lively pub at the back of Euston Station. Managed to get a seat. Food was lovely and good price. Staff friendly. Being from Staffordshire was good to see Titanic Ales 🍺

Statene lontani. Oltre 1 ora e 20 per un’ordinazione. Alle ripetute sollecitazione hanno parlato un primo piatto dopo 45 minuti in secondo piatto dopo un’ora e il terzo piatto. Hanno fatto qualche mistakes ma non ci sono giustificazioni
