Flor in Southwark

Chef fenomenale! Top davvero carne fantastica, consiglio di intingerla nella farina di manioca per darle la spinta finale

Just goes to show you don’t need Michelin stars or sommeliers to be an outstanding restaurant. Walk in only lunch time. We sat at the counter. Small menu of circa 10 items. Absolutely stunning in every way, quality, taste, visual, first class. Wine reasonable price. Will use this all the time.

There were some great dishes and some not so great. The orange wine we had was great and the staff were welcoming enough, if not overly attentive. Ultimately I felt the dishes were over priced for what they were. The premise of the restaurant is sharing plates which doesn’t really work when the portions are so small

Superb food - set lunch at a great price - superbly presented and lovely ambience with great service (thanks Tom!) will definitely return - soon!

Stunning food, ambience and service. I could eat Flor’s food everyday! I booked us one table upstairs, though next time I’d like to experience the ground floor vibes.

Flor is somewhere that we’ve been wanting to try since before Covid, so we were very much looking forward to our visit. Sadly it fell far short of expectations. A shame as we were there to celebrate a birthday. When we arrived we had to wait 15 minutes as our table was not ready, a disappointing start to the meal. The food was nice but the menu needs a few more substantial plates to balance out the more delicate dishes, and not leave you hungry at the end of the meal! We tried to order more bread to bulk it all out, only to find out they’d run out! Already feeling as if we hadn’t had enough food, we were then told that they’d forgotten one of our dishes we ordered. With a 15 minute league time and having finished the rest of our savoury plates we decided it wasn’t worth the wait. We then ordered our desserts and 5 minutes later the apologetic waitress came back to tell us they didn’t have enough portions left to fill our order! They cobbled together the desserts they did have left, leaving us feeling rather underwhelmed and disappointed by the end of the meal (and still a little hungry!) In summary, overpriced food that underwhelms. With so many great restaurants in London, the experience at Flor was not worth the price it demands. A shame as we’d so much been looking forward to this for a long time!

I've been waiting to connect to the general manager at Flor to discuss this but since they are not reaching out for a follow up after 2 attempts to find convenient time slots for a call, i am writing an honest review here. The atmosphere of the place was nice and the place is not very loud, the ambience is great. The staff are not super helpful - no one asks whether you need any help with the menu and there is a pretty strong arrogance vibe to the staff (at least upstairs). We started by ordering cocktails - and immediately received wrong ones...followed by having to ask for our white wine to be put into a cooler - which was brought right as we had our cocktails and not with our meal as requested. The food was mostly miss than hit (apart from a few really nice dishes like the bread and oysters), the majority of the food was too oily and the seasoning was too overpowering for the dishes we ordered. The best part (or i should say the most disgusting for me), was *hair in one of our dishes*. The waiter just said sorry and took it away - no credit, nothing to make up for the hygiene issue. Just terrible experience, never again.

Ordered a margarita in advance to take away. Turned out I paid £14 for a margarita with no mozzarella. How can you miss that? Especially when you don't even have marinara on your menu. And it doesn't seem to be just one-off as my friend had the same issue, which we realised far too late of course. The dough wasn't amazing, just average, a lot of cheaper places do a better job. I won't go again. Sorry!

Perhaps the ingredients are better quality than any other place to justify 16£ price tag for a pizza . I found pizza to be just above an average and not that special . Service is slow , and it’s not an ASAP pizza.

Been meaning to try Flor for a while so was happy to get a table at the new ASAP pizza. Took 10 mins to realise wasn’t table service,ordered at door but no menus to take to table so had to photograph something taped to the counter. Took about 30 mins for 2 pizzas & one was pretty burnt. Interesting toppings, but £15 for an average sized pizza is a joke esp after having been to Homeslice many times before!

This is about ASAP pizza that they do on Saturdays: really delicious pizza but they were extremely slow on Saturday, despite the fact they only sell two pizza flavours on Saturday we waited over 30 mins for our slices. Not very friendly staff and they refuse to sell whole pizza on Saturday afternoon, and only sell two varieties. I was with 3 other friends and we all wanted 2 slices, one of each. The kitchen turned this into two whole pizzas, however rather than doing the right thing and charging us for two pizza they charged us the Saturday slice price meaning we paid £48 for two small pizzas. In short: delicious but small pizza, extremely slow, and extremely expensive. I wouldn't return.

A Nice and modern restaurant right next to London Bridge Borough Market. It is hip and trendy, but you pay through the nose to eat there. It is trying to recreate the pintxos/tapas atmosphere from Spain and it does this very well. The food is served up in quite small portions and it is very tasty. But it is far too expensive. For example; a small carafe of average wine is £35. A very small plate of fish with a single green leaf is £19. The wife and I had 5 small plates to share. With my carafe the bill came to £139! And I was still very hungry when I left’

Have eaten at Flor more than 10 times now, for both dinner and brunch, and it's by far our favourite place in the market and even in London. The food and service are always top notch, and we like how dinners here are quite healthy as there are so many vegetable and light fish dishes. As fans of natural wines, the list is always fun to experiment with, but a favourite is always one of the natural sparkling wines with brunch.

Stopping for a quick coffee and pastry with my daughter, ordering 2 cappuccinos and pastries. 2 cappuccinos £6 which came in smaller than average cups and were just about luke warm. No chocolate coating and not even offered any sugars. I had pain au chocolat £4 which wasn't as fresh as it should have been, it was rather stale actually and my daughter had fruit danish £4 which was ok. But both served on the smallest saucer ever so it was impossible to cut into the pastries without it flying across the table or making more mess than anyone would have liked. The bill came to £15 incl service. Overpriced for something so average. Wont be returning.

I enjoyed my short visit and introduction to cardoons which are a sort of artichoke/ celery affair. Cardoons were served in a light vegetable broth with butter beans. Apparently cardoons are a right bother to prepare, so I shan’t bother, and will return to Flor for them again. Flor is a small, swish, trendy place for foodies wanting to sample something a bit different. I like it. Service was very attentive and professional.

Really pretentious menu; mostly indecipherable and designed to camouflage the minuscule portions and associated extortionate pricing - e.g. £15 for a few slithers of squid. Small plate of tempura kale £10. If you are expecting a pleasant culinary experience this is definitely NOT the place to visit. I would be amazed if it receives any repeat custom.

I have tried Flor several times for dinner and lunch and would say it has potential based on its reputation and offering but somehow fail to tick the expected boxes. For one, the place is pretty small and as nice as it is to be...

This tiny place with small kitchen behind seating counter, the steep staircase leading upstairs with half dozen tables offers food that cannot be described but "Progressive British". Using best material in small plates requiring 2-3 pax. Most outstanding was red prawns with head charred while...

As weekly visitors to Borough Market, my husband and I were delighted to see Flor open. A tiny artisanal bakery, restaurant and bar perfectly placed in the heart of the market. However, no matter how good the food, or how trendy and appealing the interior...

We got the rolled pancetta slices (delicious), oyster (mignonette dressing is ok), scarlet prawns (underwhelming), burrata (good), speck flatbread (so good ordered another one) and the turbot (very good). For £25, the portion of turbot was way too small. The wine list offers a good...

Having read several reviews prior to coming our expectations were high and we were slightly disappointed. Shared 6 or 7 dishes and maybe 2 of them were 'very good' and somewhat memorable (poached Turbot and mussel flatbread). Baked goods were all quite good, service was...

Our lunch was enjoyable but ultimately incredibly underwhelming considering the hype surrounding this restaurant and the prices it charges. The venue is very small, so expect cramped seating and very cluttered tables. The dishes were mostly ‘nice’, but no standard dishes and prices are exceptionally...

Love this place. Extremely aesthetically pleasing and the baked goods are incredible. A little expensive but still worth the coffee & pain au chocolat.

I went with a friend for dinner on a Wednesday evening having not read the Tripadvisor reviews. In regards to "rude staff" my experience was completely opposite, our waiter was charming and helpful in regards to describing the menu and helping us choose appropriate wine...

Sweet, intimate restaurant set over 2 floors. The ground floor is casual with counter seating around an open kitchen plus a couple of knee to knee tables, upstairs has more comfortable, conventional seating, tables closely hemmed in. The menu came on a simply typed piece...

Super little winebar with focus on naturel Wine. There is so many delicius bottles on the list, reasonably priced, but unfurtunately I was alone so I went by the glass. A small selection was offered, I had 4 different glasses all really yum. As a...

What better way to spend a Monday evening than meet friends drink negroni and share plates of oysters and anchovy toasts. Beautiful brown butter cakes with coffee

The food is really excellent but the dishes are very small and very expensive, by about 25% if one compares similar other London restaurants . Staff are a tad quirky but not in a bad way.

We were recommended this new- ish restaurant for lunch, and were unable to reserve a table, but were told we could drop in and they would find us one if we were prepared to wait. s/ure enough, we did that, and were told one would...

My husband and I visited Flor today and we enjoyed our visit. We picked five of the smaller plates, such as the Datterini tart (a tomato tart with a very subtle smoky taste). The food was of a high quality and interesting too, such as...

Went here with my partner for dinner this week. We enjoyed our evening but the food and wine were really hit and miss. Unlike some of the other reviewers, we had really great staff, they were very friendly, helpful and responsive. No complaints there. We...

I visited Flor for lunch with my wife and left feeling rather disappointed. I ordered 5 small plates and a bottle of Carussin Lia Vi Piedmontese red wine and the bill came to over £127!!! The most disappointing dish was the summer vegetables. It literally...

I popped in for a drink with friends. They were surly on the door, the guy serving the wine was irritated we wanted something! Huffing and puffing I worry that this is what we will experience after Brexit. No charm, no idea about service. Not...

The whole experience of average food (at best) was made worse by arrogant, poorly presented and rude front of house come waiter staff. There are dozens of better options in the SE1 area than this. Food was rich in salt and butter which seems to...

...annoyingly sniffy service. Both servers seemed disinterested with our questions (around portion size, and recommend aperitif). Always irritating and a sure sign of a restaurant that thinks it’s better than it is. But the food was really good and I’m sure they’ll survive off of...

This bakery/restaurant has been going for around a month now and it is a happening place. Whilst they take a limited number of bookings, there is space kept for walk-ins. And when I arrived at 6pm, I had a couple of options for a dinner...

The food was truly amazing . Flat bread with mussels and new garlic , potato flatbread covered in luscious grated truffle , red prawns , oyster and jalapeño , Burrata with a Sicilian tomato salad , wild boar sausage , and all 3 desserts -...
