Foxlow Stoke Newington in Hackney

Me encantó el brunch en Foxlow, buen servicio, buenas recomendaciones. La comida era buena. Ofrecen pan sin gluten. La decoración y el ambiente son agradables.

Nuestros amigos tenían "golpeo" este restaurante en su trayecto desde la nueva zona a trabajar. Menú era atractivo y no nos decepcionó. Desde una muy cálida bienvenida a ser la última mesa para dejar, todo era realmente excelente.

Fuimos con la familia como una comida de Navidad. El servicio era simplemente. . No hay. Después de pedir nuestro vino simplemente no aparecen. Mirando al bar que pudimos ver tres miembros del personal charlando, así que me levanté para pedir el vino. Nuestro camarero era muy agradable, pero en el vino más, trayendo dijo que 'estaba esperando el bar, pero, en realidad, tuve que ir a conseguir que 'él era se levantó con el camarero, que evidentemente no iba a conseguir el vino.

Yo aquí en pop. Aunque es famosa por la carne y bistec, el vegetariano y platos de pescado son excepcionales. Normalmente me la vegetariano, pero el otro día, opté por el arranque de calamar con queso Mac en el lado (extraño combo ya lo sé, pero era lo que me apetecía). Sin embargo, era que sus fichas eran excepcionales. Tuvimos que pedir más.

Recientemente trasladado a la zona y este restaurante es uno de los pocos de Stokey que será fija. Hay un montón de sitio satisfactorio pero tú sabes lo que te vas a encontrar cuando llega a una cadena bien establecido.

Fuimos una tarde el desayuno/almuerzo un Sábado y realmente lo disfruté. A juzgar por el número de personas que nos preguntamos si tenían una reserva (no) probablemente es mejor hacer una antes de ir. Ideal para familias con niños. Hay un bar bien surtido, sin duda recomendaría el longitudinales Mary) y el servicio es excelente. La misma calidad y nivel de servicio como su otra sucursal en Clerkenwell.

Un restaurante que lleva su carne seriamente. Dos de nosotros pedimos un filete de hamburguesa que, colgador y junto con una ensalada verde, y una botella de tinto de la casa, llegó a unos 55 libras. La carne estaba buena, la hamburguesa de buena calidad, pero, desgraciadamente, demasiado preparado - no sirven hamburguesas raras.

Almuerzo para la familia - 5 adultos y 2 niños. Después de ordenar Nuestra comida tardó 45 minutos en llegar y a todos nos hubiera gustado no llega a todos.

Una gran manera de pasar un domingo por la tarde. El restaurante estaba muy lleno y el ambiente era bueno, aunque un poco ruidoso.

As always, foodie competition in Stokey is ferocious. Changing and challenging all the time.

The food here was good but took aaaaaages to arrive. Even slower were the drinks with a timed 20 minute wait for a round at one point. The restaurant and bar weren't particularly busy and the cocktails were not complex to make. So the wait seemed unwarranted. My niece gave up on waiting for her lemonade completely-which we later found had just been forgotten - and opted for the water that had been placed on the table. The best part of the meal though was dessert. The chocolate hazelnut Sunday hit the spot for me and my mum and sister swooned over the their sticky toffee puddings. I'll give this place another try, but they'd better perform on service or it'll be the last time they get my money.

Really enjoyed my dinner at Foxlow tonight. The steak was perfectly cooked and a really nice cut of rib-eye. Perfect size and delicious. We ordered mac and cheese on the side along with some buttered vegetables. All were very tasty. The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was great. Dim lit and very cozy. I would highly recommend foxlow to couples and groups of friends.

Went here on a Sunday, a really relaxed place and the staff are great. Nice outside seating area. Would definitely recommend

I had an amazing time at Foxlow! All three courses were delicious. I would definitely recommend the salmon and the sticky toffee pudding. Friendly service and chilled out atmosphere. GO!

Went here with some friends last weekend. The restaurant itself is very nice tho the toilets were in dire need of cleaning and re-doing. The staff were lovely, very attentive and friendly.The food was nice not spectacular but nice. I had the pea and mint salad to start which was actually the tastiest dish. I had the salmon as my main which was ok, a bit bland.All in all I enjoyed my visit, not sure if I would go again, perhaps.

We have been here a few times and really love the place. Nice relaxed setting, with very friendly staff, and a great menu.The meat is really good.

I had a good meal at Foxlow, but it wasn't cheap. I started with a good but not great mozzarella starter, followed by the d-rump, which tasted tender and well aged.The sides were workman like in that I remember liking them, but can't remember what they were. It was reasonable value in that meat is expensive, but if you have a drink, you'll be hard pushed to spend less than £30 a head. All in all, a good restaurant and I'd definitely head back.

Enjoyable steak and burger and beer Chose to eat outside on a warm evening Good service in a fun area where there is lots of choice and competition

Looking for a higher quality meal on Friday night and having heard good things we decided to reserve a table at Foxlow. We were surprised that we had no trouble even though booking only about an hour before we wanted to go. It became apparent why once we arrived to a completely empty restaurant with a few people having drinks outside. A few more tables did appear before we left but this place was very empty for a busy Friday night in Stoke Newington when all the other restaurants are buzzing - this should give you a clue about what to expect.To give credit for the only thing that was not dire at this place was a couple of the staff and their attitude which was excellent: friendly, professional and very welcoming. Unfortunately our main waitress was unfriendly and we got the feeling was looking down on us for everything we ordered. The wine list while extensive really needs to offer a larger number of lower priced options. Suffice it to say we didn't feel we had value for money on the mediocre wine we had for £29 which was the 6th cheapest on a menu of over 30 reds!The food was the biggest let down. The starter we shared of burrata with heritage tomatoes and avocado was pathetic. A single thin slice of the burrata on the plate with two tiny orange cherry tomatoes cut in half and one regular tomato slice and some pureed green stuff that might once have been something like avocado. It was tiny for £7.50 and a long way from the quality we were expecting. The mains were delivered the moment we finished the starter but despite that were both cold. The fried chicken sandwich being cold was far too soft to give confidence that it had been cooked properly. But far worse was the ribeye steak which was small and thin, insipid and grey and wholly unappetising. As we were both hungry we ate what we could but were disgusted that for the price the quality could be so bad. The restaurant claims to use produce from the Ginger Pig but either this claim is untrue or they are treating it incredibly badly. All we could assume is that our main order was cooked at the same time as the starter was delivered and sat under a less than warm heat lamp but even hot the quality was far lower than the price requires and led us not to bother sending it back.Given the empty state of the place the locals have obviously figured out that you need to avoid this place and this was obvious as we saw every other restaurant full. The makings of a good place are there with a nice venue and some well trained staff but with such appalling cooking and lack of quantity and quality with respect to the prices this is a place I would strongly advise people to pass!

The food was really tasty, I had spare ribs to start which were amazing. Then sirloin steak for main which was over cooked. The staff were really friendly but the prices are very high for the portions!

I live very near to Foxlow in Stoke Newington and this is by far one of the best steaks I've ever had! The sides are also very nice. I would recommend the mac and cheese and spring greens! Only downside is that it's a little on the pricey side but that's quite normal for steak. The early bird menu is great value though!

The food here is gorgeous and the staff are so friendly. Had the best sticky toffee pudding ever! Only (small) downside was that the restaurant itself was very cold.

This is my second visit to Foxlow and my review covers both visits. On the first I was disappointed that three items on the brunch menu were unavailable - sadly, the three items I was most interested in eating. Anyway I opted to the Foxlow burger, and have to say as a burger experience it was pretty much up there with the best.We also had bread and butter pudding which wasn't presented as I had in my mind's eye, but was pretty good.But what was outstanding was the way they responded to the reduced menu choice. They did not charge for the pre-brunch drinks, nor the desserts. Furthermore they gave us a personalised invite to a free brunch in the future. And they went out of their way to apologise.Cue Father's Day and we returned. My daughter has eggs benedict - I don't know if readers have trouble with making hollandaise sauce, I do - but theirs is perfect and the poached eggs (organic obviously) had the required runny yolks. I had the Foxlow version of a sausage and egg Mc Muffin - really, really good. Next visit will be the standard on which I judge many restaurants, the Sunday roast.

We went on a "no corkage" byo night which was a Euro2016 promotion and had the Early Bird Special. The food was top notch and the service was lovely. Will be going again!

I was in a party of 4, and we were all in agreement that the food was ok, but pricey. Certainly none of us were blown away and my steak wasn't cooked as I asked for. (Medium and was much more like rare) leaving me with red mash potato. Was still a nice steak though. Staff were very friendly and polite although I did feel as if it was all a bit squashed. Don't think I'll be in a rush to go back, although certainly not an unpleasant experience, just think for the price we paid, the quality of the food should have been slightly better.

went here for my birthday totally forgot my mum was not a fan of red meat when I booked! after trying the short rib she is a convert and stated it was the best meal she had for a long time! the steak was also lovely well cooked and tasty good range of sides and wines looking forward to going back again soon! staff were knowledgeable and attentive but not over fussy!

Me and my friend try to go on brunch at least once a month and try a new venue each time. We went to this Foxlow on a Saturday in March... and it was just great. We went with my daughter who was asleep after the bus ride, and it wasn't a problem at all for the waitress to give us a large table so my 3 year old could sleep on the chairs put together as a bench (really appreciated!).We wanted to try Foxlow for a long time, and went to this one (for some reason my friend had heard that this one was the worst to go to ) and we loved it! I haven't been to the others Foxlow in London, but I have to say that we have nothing negative to say about our experience there. The food was really really good and tasty! Loved the Fried Chicken, Egg & Croissant Waffle of course! Their Vietnamese coffee is exactly how the typical one is (I lived two years in Hanoi, so I know!), and the whole atmosphere was really nice, very family-friendly, waiters paid good attention to us and the waitress who took our payment in the end was very bubbly. All in all, a very very nice brunch, and since then, I keep on recommending it, and I will definitely take my partner soon. So I'll be back :p

We had lunch here and didn't enjoy it. Bland and nothing special. Service was not very attentive either and all in all way over priced in my humble opinion

This is a late review - came here for my birthday in January and was disappointed by this branch of Foxlow. Having been to the Clerkenwell branch numerous times I was very much looking forward to this.Unfortunately the food was cold, the ambience dead and the vibe uninspiring.Hopefully it has improved in the last 6 months!

So good to have a menu that doesn't mimic every other menu in London. Creative, fresh, subtle, flavorful. Lovely service, atmosphere.

Visited this restaurant on a Sunday afternoon, every table was full and atmosphere was good. Waitress was really helpful and her recommendations were spot on. Ribeye steak with anchovy and chilli butter was delicious as were the short rib beef dishes. On the pricey side but worth every penny.

First off, the steaks here are great and value for money, which is why I'm about to go back to Foxlow in Stoke Newington again; I love a good steak. The apparent lack of attention to diners from staff, however, left us all feeling a little flat. No welcome, no goodbye, a studied indifference to writing down our orders, surprising when 5 people are all ordering a few courses and drinks which, unsurprisingly, resulted in some side dishes not arriving. At least a waiter asked us halfway through whether everything was all right but, when I answered that some items we had ordered never arrived, adding though that we seemed to have enough anyway and to simply make sure not to charge me for the missing dishes, which the waiter kindly agreed to, only for the offending items to then arrive 10 minutes later and which I was billed for. A final observation - parents of small children will inevitably and understandably encourage their children to say please and thank you to waiting staff when eating out. We do and it therefore irked myself and my wife when our waiter unpleasantly poked fun at my children for politely thanking her every time she filled their glasses with the expensive sparkling water we had ordered, saying something to the effect of - why are you thanking me, its only water? Charming.

Had a lovely roast lunch here, roast beef was very tasty. Yorkshires were a bit too crispy though, roasted carrots were delicious. Service was good, and dessert - chocolate and salted caramel mousse was very tasty. Would recommend.

The food was great! We had the Dexter Burger which was amazing...very tasty, fries was spot on and so as the macaroni. The place was very cozy...staff were very lovely and accommodating. A little bit pricey for for the area but not too much. Quite glad that we left the "Good Egg" because we were looking for a place to have a proper dinner and not just a pretend "English Tapas version.

Went for brunch, the food is delicious and great value. The staff are super friendly and knowledgable. Their cocktails are divine too! Will definitely return :)

Disappointing, because I'd been looking forward to a good neighbourhood restaurant opening. Friendly welcome, but the ambience is dim to the point of needing torches to read the menu (and it wasn't just us - other tables had to light up using mobile phones). The food was pedestrian. Starters were what appeared to be deep fried frozen calamari with a few snips of chili - just like a Wetherspoon. Steaks were good, but the overall impression somewhat bland - a big blob of taste-of-nothing mash potato pure propped up my ribs. Chocolate desert was good - but bloody hell, so salty - like the idea of excess salt being unhealthy had never happened - needed a pint of water afterwards. And the house wine - a bland blend out of a barrel from the local Borough Wines shop - never failed to disappoint - just about ok party wine. Not expensive but not cheap and the owners decided a 12.5% tip should be added to the bill rather leaving it up to me.

The 4 of us had a really good evening at Foxlow's. The fried chicken was very tasty, as apparently was the Burger. Fries and macaroni cheese fab, and the ambience and service nice and friendly.

Their Sunday roasts are fantastic. Every part of it is perfect. Roast potatoes are soft inside and crisp on the outside, the beef is thickly sliced, pink in the middle and juicy. Lovely tasty leafy greens, wonderful gravy, and a large yorkshire pud.My partner never manages to finish a roast as it's too much food, but an exception is made here even when her sides are bursting!They do the best cheese cake too, a passion fruit one.

Starting with the positives: welcoming, good service throughout, good range of dishes. Kids' menu is very good value at 6 quid for main course, two sides, drink and pudding all in. Burger and fries is a good bet for an adult. Less positive: entry level rump at 18 quid (no fries included) was perfectly cooked and very tasty, though pretty tough. House wine moderately priced but pretty unexciting. Everything else on the wine list is a big jump in price rather than quality. You'd be looking at around 85 quid for something properly special. My beer was very nice, but you'd expect that at 6 quid a bottle! Actively unappealing: my wife's chicken was bland. Roll was Iceland-grade. Fries were incredibly salty, well past the point of reason. Meat generally also seemed highly salted.

Jessica runs a trendy place with an interesting menu but the service was really bad. Lots of waiting staff but they never glanced around the room to see if anyone needed them. Requests for water or ketchup were forgotten the moment they left our table. I went to one of the waiters and expressed strongly my dissatisfaction. Immediately everything changed. They recognised that they were failing and were quite brilliant after all.The point of what I am trying to say is that if you are unhappy in some eatery or other, don't go home and winge on Trip Advisor. Do what I did. Tell them at the time and probably they will take it on the chin and up their game.Jessica's place is great. Do try it. I just hope that when my daughter, Emily, goes there with the card for a free drink, Jessica doesn't expect a boring old whatsit with a beard!

Four of us dined mid week for a family birthday celebration. We were made extremely welcome and the menu provided good variety to cater for the non meat eaters amongst us. For the rest the Ginger Pig meat is wonderful. The beef short rib and kimchi was outstanding. As was the first press martini!

The steaks are lovely, the side dishes are small and the puds were great but £85 per head? Where did that come from ? We didn't eat that much and didn't drink that much either. A group of us do fine dining once every couple of months and I am afraid this is the most expensive so far. .... more than Morro, Quality Chop House and Hawksmoor.

Delicious food,awsome customer service. The waiter's eye was always on the table. Super cocktails! Worth every penny!Defenatley recommend to everyone!

We had been waiting for the highly anticipated opening of Foxlow, as the site is really nice and the last restaurant on that site was a bit of a waste of space.We went for lunch with the kids on a Saturday. The place was busy, had a nice atmosphere and the food was good, but a bit average. We found it a bit expensive for what you get to be honest and the service was ok, but we did not get the feel the waitress was too bothered.Nice decor and details, cute place but not much more

We really enjoyed dining at this place. The service was exceptional. Very friendly staff who make sure you don't feel self conscious when your toddler is screaming. The food was delicious. The ambience was relaxed. I recommend it for a nice family meal especially if you have young children you will feel welcome.

we went on Sunday for a roast , food good , we enjoy it, overprice for a area but drink have a good quality , busy on Sunday its better to book a table before, staff just ok

We thought that we would give Foxlow, Stoke Newington a try as we've been to most eateries in the area. The evening we went was busy but we were sat quickly. Service was fine although a touch on the slow side. The limited menu choice was slightly disapointing. The food arrived and was presented well enough but my main course (burger) was average and my partner's steak was less than average. The "pepper sauce" was effectively bisto with a twist of pepper. We didn't have a desert as we'd had enough of the very noisy surroundings.The food is overpriced and of average quality. In summary I found Foxlow dissapointing. I'm sorry to say I won't be going back. I miss HOMA.

Family gathering for combined Birthday lunch. Looks nice from the outside with simple decor inside. Interesting drinks choice - my ginger beer was good. Starters of Pepper Squid, Smoke Rillette & Spare Ribs were all well cooked and tasted great. Steaks were well cooked and very tender with great flavour...this is clearly the theme of the menu. Rump, Rideye and Sirloin were all sampled with various sauces. To be honest my steak tasted so good it did not really need a sauce. Sides were OK but not all the order arrived. The vegetarian dumplings were good. Puddings also looked and tested good - Bourbon Caramel, Sticky Toffee and Pasion Cheese Cake well recieved. Bill was over £180 which for four with modest drinks was on the high side. Service was 12.5% which was not merited given the waiter came by and said sorry he was not looking after us. So in summary good food, exceptional steaks but let down by below par service (probably because they didnt have enough staff at peak periods) and a hefty price tag.

Went to try for Sunday lunch last week.The food was of a very good quality, but arrived luke warm (the very thing that eventually stopped our regular Hawksmore trips for Sunday lunch.) It wasn't cold enough to send back and we were starving so ate it without complaint. I had the roast, my partner the hake (which was tiny and also slightly over-cooked.) The bill came to around £65 for one course, 2 sides, (which for the hake was essential,) plus a drink each. I have to say as a regular visitor to the Jolly Butchers (usually almost half the price for an equivalent standard) I was disappointed with Foxlow and would be unlikely to visit again based on value for money compared to the quality.

Nice food nice place attentive staff but a touch expensive then like all London's eateries you get hit with a 12.5% service charge.Non the less our second visit and when in Stoke Newington again it will probably top of our list for a meal.

Went here for my birthday to have brunch. Service was good - although the attentiveness declined noticeably as the place began to fill up.Food was really wonderful, along with the cocktails and the Pistachio / Polenta cake with Labneh. Although the concept isn't mindblowing, sometimes its just nice to enjoy tasty, and well executed food and drinks in a nice neighbourhood setting. Foxlow Stoke Newington does this very well.

Given all the good reviews, I wanted to take my friends from abroad to Foxlow;Having arrived at St. Johns Street very early, I had a couple of drinks and a little starter while waiting for my friends... shortly after we were meant to meet, the friendly manager informed with a little smile in his face that my friends have just arrived at the Stoke Newington branch - very unfortunate. Helpful as he was, he had already organised a taxi for me whilst my friends were offered a drink in the meantime. Thumbs up for friendly staff in both branches!Stoke Newington: Very pleasant atmosphere inside and outside, friendly and helpful staff, delicious food (tried finger-licking ribs, tasty mac&cheese and delicious steaks)!Long story short, can highly recommend a visit - just make sure you clearly specify the branch with the people you're meeting :-)

i've been meaning to go to the foxlow forever, and finally stopped in for a few late afternoon drinks and snacks with a pal visiting from abroad. tragically, we arrived about 20 minutes too late to make the most of their bottomless bloody mary offer- my friend drank two bloody marys anyway, which she said were very good- perfectly spiced. i had 2 glasses of wine, a carignan and a white burgundy that tasted like the exact opposite of how i would expect a white burgundy would taste- lean, austere, astringent. either they gave me the wrong wine or that was a super-weird example of the style. foodwise, my friend had the five-pepper squid and fries: the squid sauce was next level amazing, and the fries were basically mcdonalds fries. i don't mean this as an insult OR a compliment, it's a completely neutral statement. i was not too hungry so i had a green juice, which was fresh and lively and about as good as a green juice can be, and a little dish of crackerjack-style popcorn with nuts and caramel that i could have eaten many many vats of. the decor was a bit underwhelming, especially knowing that foxlow is affiliated with the stately, mesmerizing dining rooms of the hawksmoor franchise. service was decent, though a touch inconsistent- we had two waiters over the course of our lunch: one was a bit too up in our grill, the other was a bit absent. but they were both fine. i will definitely be back for a complete meal here! good vibes.

Gorgeous food, pleasant service and a nice atmosphere. We had a 3 course meal, the portions were quite generous. We'll be back again soon I suspect.

Visited a few months back for Sunday lunch with the in laws. Food was ok, nothing of significant merit. Service was slow and we sat downstairs which was cold. Desserts seriously poor. Manager (Liam) emailed asking for feedback. Replied and never heard anything back. Go elsewhere...

Had the croissant waffle and fried chicken (struck me first on the menu and had to have it) The sauce was great. Chicken (breast) was nicely done with good batter. Croissant waffle could have been a little more crisp (felt it was slightly undercooked) but still good. Service was slightly slow, but staff were honest about it. Seated immediately for a weekend brunch by friendly staff.

Service was slow and we had to wait for one of our party's meal and then again for the rest of the meal.One main course was not as shown on the menu, peas and courgettes instead of broad beans and asparagus. The salmon dish was very poor value for money.Some recompense was offered but I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to really discerning dinners.

We were treated to lunch here. We went straight for mains, deckle steak and flatiron & fries (a lunchtime special around £16). Both were done accurately, medium rare, and both were very tasty indeed. The Deckle came with a little onion and marrow so we had fries and beans as extras between two of those. Desserts were much appreciated by those that had them, especially chocolate and salted caramel tart. The food for adults was good, not cheap, but the menu for our grandchildren was amazing value: they were doing a special lunchtime deal of £6 for a drink, main (eg burger, chicken or pasta) and ice cream.

Foxlow has a great range of steaks and some more unusual cuts that you wouldn't usually find in the UK. Great sides and fantastic wine selection too. Good for a relaxing dinner and drinks with friends.

We went to Foxlows after reading good reviews. They had run out of the starter we wanted so we went straight to mains. The food was very good quality but over priced especially as you needed at least one side. Main course portions are small. The deserts were very nice and larger in comparison but again on the expensive side. The ambience in the restaurant is very good. Overall we had a nice evening but given the price and portion size we wouldn't be rushing back.

Lovely decor, good atmosphere and great staff. Food quality is superb and we couldn't fault anything - waiting staff were extremely helpful and unobtrusive and the house wine is a real bargain. The fried chicken was sublime as were the chips with chicken salt! Sides were generous and tasty - loved the little gem with parmesan. This is a really relaxed dining experience, high quality ingredients and lovely staff. Will definitely return net time we're in the area.

i went here on a sunday around 6ish and this place was still filling up. Just wanted a quick bite but ended up order two steaks, sides and salads! All cooked perfectly and very tasty. Nothing to boast about but just good comfy food, the steaks are the star and they have really good flavour so would recommend them. All staff from when we walked in to paid and left were on the go. Very good, very friendly and worth going again. A nice place for any occasion.

Newest addition to Church Street and I had a brilliant evening there for my partners birthday. The cocktail menu was great and the food was un-complicated and delicious. The Beef shortrib was particularly amazing!

I had high expectations of Foxlow, was turned down a few weeks ago for a walk-in, so made a reservation. Knowing the weather was going to be a scorcher, I called ahead to request an outside table... We were refused "in case the weather turns" so you can't reserve outdoor seats at all which was disappointing so we were seated inside.Cocktails were great, and the highlight of our meal! Foodwise, ordered the waffle, fried chicken and fried egg dish... Standard fried egg was overcooked meaning it was dry. Then I poured the gravy out and a blue bottle fly landed plonk on my dish!!! They quickly removed it and brought out another, but I was so put off by this I didn't put any gravy on my dish - it was so dry with an over cooked egg. They didn't offer to get me a different dish which I would have preferred. They took the price of my dish off the menu, but I received no real apology when leaving. Really disappointed considering the high hopes I had and left feeling sick! Won't be returning :(

Having heard good things about the Foxlow I ventured in with some friends. We had some pleasant cocktails while we waited for a table and were eventually seated. The menu was interesting, however there were not any descriptions about any of the dishes. Leaving my table wondering about a few of the dishes and having to ask multiple questions to our waiter.The smokehouse rillette was a good starter, it was just a bit one dimensional. It was just missing that exciting touch that could have made it amazig. The menu had so many exotic flavours, it's a shame they couldnt incorporate these into to this dish.My main was a fillet steak and it was very good. It was cooked perfectly medium rare and was very juicy, with a nice sear on the outside. accompanying my steak was a small amount of bone marrow and a garnish of salad. The skin on fries, which i ordered extra, were nice with a lovely seasoning. The 2 and 1/2 teaspoons of bernaisse sauce, which I ordered extra, was good but just a little on the small size.My experience was ok, nothing spectacular and a little bit pricey for what it was. I can see this place being a good after work "steak'n'beer" place, however I won't be returning in the near future.

We booked for a Saturday evening and were given a good table. The four of us shared two starters: crispy five-pepper squid and heritage tomatoes with Graceburn cheese – both OK but unexceptional. The hake was nicely cooked, and the fried chicken was quite good too, but the sundaes afterwards were disappointing. Nonetheless, it was an enjoyable evening in a convivial restaurant with efficient service; and not over-priced at just over £100 for food, plus 12.5% gratuity.

Tried this place on the off-chance last Saturday evening. We live in the area, and have eaten here before the new owners took over. Although they were busy, they managed to find us a table. It was brilliant! There couldn't have been a more diverse group of people. My husband likes plain, well cooked food and ordered the slow-cooked beef; My son had the burger; his partner (who's vegetarian) had some asparagus and parmesan creation and I had the Roast Hake. We all agreed that the food was delicious. Will certainly go back.

Food was good, focus is more for the meat eater. They didn't listen to our order and brought hake instead of the macaroni and cheese. Bit of an issue as I'm vegetarian but it was lovely when it arrived. Unfortunately my husband had already finished his meal as we didn't want it to go cold while my meal was cooked. He had the burger with a side of skin on fries. Asked for vinegar but received mayonnaise. On the plus side you can get a carafe of wine (half bottle) which is good if only one is drinking wine.The gratuity is added onto the bill , whereas we would have preferred to have tipped on our experience.Good food, good ambiance and decor but shame about the service.

Thanks to my friend Mr A. Another great find and great recommendation.I heard Stokey and i thought Turkish straight away. But this place is not Turkish and it is not any specific cuisine but simply good choice.Dishes ranging from Fish, Chicken and Steak and the classics but best desserts too.So i now have to take the wife.Try the Sticky Toffee Pudding

Very expensive for what you get, I had the ribs to start, about £8 or £9............2 of them! They were very tasty though. I then had the macaroni with some sort of fancy chillies in it. That was a bit average. The waiters and staff were very friendly and helpful. It was busy so they must be doing something right, maybe I just made the wrong choice. It's worth a try.

We celebrated my boyfrien's birthday here. The staff was very nice, the service was quick and the food was excellent! Still the best steak in the city! And the cappuccino is wicked too!

We visited this restaurant for our grandson's 3rd birthday, it was early 6pm, so quite quiet. The staff were very attentive and helpful. They catered for the wee man very well with colouring books and plenty of toys. The meals were very tasty but small portions for the price.

There really is nothing special about this place, despite the prices suggesting otherwise. Menu choice is limited (with dishes unavailable) and uninspiring. With so many other restaurants to choose from close by, there really is no reason to bother with this kind of pretentiousness.

I first tried Foxlow with my friend and his family. The menu was great and food delicious. I returned the next week with my boyfriend and his dad for Fathers Day. The menu was the same but the waiting time was over an hour and the portion sizes had drastically shrunk from one week to the next. Disappointing.

Nice ambience, very Paris bistro, pleasant staff, Sunday roast delicious. Nice addition restaurant to Stokey!

After a previously poor service we were welcomed by a complementary round of drinks were we had the ice tea whichWas by far the best I'd had and would definitely have again. The waiter was very helpful and knowledgeable about the food and gave great advice. The deckle was a great choice accompanied with chicken salt fries and the fresh tomato salad. The flavours were great and accompanied each other very well. We finished the meal off with the chocolate and salted caramel tarted which was rich and a great end to the meal. The staff were very accommodating and wanted the best experience so would recommend and lining up for the second visit.

Good atmosphere, friendly and efficient staff. Menu varied, wine list limited mainly French - bah. Didn't have starters, steaks superb and so was chocolate and caramel dessert. Cheese - potions are miniscule and it's not entirely clear on the menu what you are getting. Apart from this very good.

Visited for the first time. Nice environment, excellent service, great menu. Food delicious. Flat sausage and eggs amazing ! Sweet potato mash gorgeous. Food attractively presented. Coffee not quite hot enough for us. Not being from London found it a little pricey - approx £100 for 6 people. Overall a really good experience, highly recommend.

Went back to this site thinking we were going to the Homa. Obviously things have changed and we thought we would give Foxlow a try. Glad we did, Pepper squid and ribs as starters were delicious and all our 4 main courses were excellent although quite pricy. Wine list OK but not very clear - what is the house wine? the list does not say! Service at 12.5% is added on, I prefer to see this discretionary Will certainly go again..

This "twin" of the restaurant in Clerkenwell, is perfectly placed in Stokie. An improvement in the former Homa, Foxlow has the feel of a Parisian Bistro. Casual and comfortable with a "Modern London" menu and friendly, efficient service. Went straight for mains of 55 day aged Rump (from the Ginger Pig butchery) was flavoursome, served with onions roasted in a marrow bone (without the marrow, ). My wife went for the roast salmon, cooked perfectly (although a tad small). Great sides, the highlight of which was the chicken "salt" for the fries....wow....please never get rid of this!A glass of Foxlow red from Borough Wines,a nice young Tempranillo and Grapefruit sodas (for someone that can't drink at the moment) were perfect marriages. Can't wait to go back to try the slow cooked rib of beef!!!!

Been here 3 times in the last month. Great food each time and really nice service. Restaurant can get quite noisy which is fine if you are a group of friends but not as good for a romantic evening etc. Good choice of vegetarian and staff very helpful with gluten free etc. Nice decor and reasonable prices.

6 of us attempted to get a table separately (for 6) for the soft opening by email and all put as flexible as possible dates/ times as per instructions to increase chances of getting a table. Failed to get a table, therefore, failed to even sample food so will default to 1 star until offered 50% off as per soft launch. :)

Went for lunch. Above average food (just) with expensive prices.Noisy and inexperienced waitress staff. Slow service and food coming to the table which we hadn't ordered. Good intention average experience.

What a wonderful addition to Stoke Newington, will be going back very soon. The cocktails were delicious and the steak was perfect.

Met girlfriends who are born and raised Londoners here for brunch on a random Wednesday. The food was great and the space is really charming. Loved the Foxy Lady cocktail and their mac n' cheese. However this seems to be the place that all the new moms in Stoke Newington take their small children to scream and cry. It was a bit much.

Last time I ate at Hawksmoor it was a disaster so was a little reluctant to go to the Foxlow offshoot. I am pleased to report that despite this being a busy Saturday lunchtime the service was excellent and the food good. Very nice rillettes followed by a very decent burger. Rest of family had steak and all said it was excellent.

I came here with my family for a cheeky brunch and it was brilliant. My Dad had the Breakfast burger and he loved it whilst the rest of us went for the steak and eggs and that was lovely! The Salsa verde was stunning!The service was perfect I'm definitely coming back!

Id love to write a review but access denied. Admittedly tried an unbooked fly by with friends for lunch earlier. Only be to very shortly rebuffed then ignored. Suggest some work on the friendliness of front of house required. Thankfully stokey has plenty of competition with excellent food and friendly front of house staff.

As a fan of Hawksmoor, I was very pleased when I heard that Foxlow was opening just at my doorsteps. Of course I tried to book for the soft launch but had no luck so they kindly offered us a free round of drink on our first visit.We were given a table in the downstairs area, by the toilets, which wasn't great as it was a bit cold. However, this it the only negative thing I will say about this place as we had an amazing meal and evening.We had the ricotta & crispbread and the crispy squid to start, both incredibly tasty. As mains, we went for the beef shortrib and the Brixham hake,utterly delicious.We couldn't resist having a look at the dessert and the waiter suggested to try the sticky toffee pudding. It's not my favourite pudding or one I would normally go for but I can easily say that this is by far the best one I've had. Service was impeccable and great winelist too.We will definetely visit again very, very soon as I can't wait to try their brunch and Sunday roast!

Well now...the Smithfields branch of foxlow had a soft opening and charged 50% for a couple of weeks while they sorted themselves out, and it looks like what this branch should have done. I think they had been open for a max of two weeks when we went, and first they couldnt find the Top Table booking, but were very good about it and showed us a table straight away. My starter of crispy squid was very good, S's riette was not, and she is a bit of an expert on that bit of pig. I was looking forward to my 55 day aged steak and S her rare burger. After a bit of a wait they arrived and the burger was brown all the way through and the steak cooked well but very dry. We suspect they had been sitting under warming lights for a while. S pointed out the overdone burger to the waitress but didn't want to wait for the replacement offered as she was too hungry. The very sweet waitress said it would be taken off the bill and we could have a free dessert. In fact we didn't want a pudding but had two espressos which were charged at the full £3 each. Couldn't fault the service but feel they need to smarten up their act a little, oh yes the couple at the next, rather too close, table got a wrong starter..

A nice restaurant for all types on engagements. Good for families, couples, dinner with friends, etc. Service is fast and friendly, with capable and knowledgeable staff. Food excellent and the venue does everything well by employing a short (but diverse) menu. The meals are honest and quality. Didn’t try the drinks but they look good.They’ve done a good job with the decoration, considering it’s not a great space to work with. Décor is pretty bare-bones and some diners may find the tables pushed a bit close together. Could possibly become annoying if parents come in with noisy children.Overall: great value, formidable steaks, friendly staff. Would absolutely return there.

I happen to live virtually next door to this lot and have seen various establishments come and go. The previous one Homa wasn't bad at all and a place I was quite happy to pop into now and again... them being efficient, polite and very good for food.This new lot expect reservations on a Saturday afternoon and claim their kitchen is to volume whilst hosting a room of what mostly seems to be babies - yummy mummy spawn and the like.Although they could have made the effort and served us outside.. they chose to get us to bugger off.. possibly for not apparantly conforming to the demography they intend to frequent this place.I can't speak for the food but I think it's pretty much a write off as far as I go.Unwelcoming... avoid.

Was very excited to hear this place was replacing the former restaurant. I unfortunately didn't get a table for the opening however was offered a free round of drinks so was very happy on my first visit. The setting itself is nice and spacious clean minimal decor, with a nice outside eating area. The staff were attentive and friendly which made our dining experience even better. Myself and my partner went for an early dinner, i had smoked salmon to start and a fattoush salad for main and he had the chicken burger, which although simple were all done very well and didn't cost the world. The cocktail i had was absolutely delicious too. Will definitely be going back in the very near future to sample the rest of the menu!

I had a lovely 3 course meal at the recently opened Foxlow. All the food was good quality, tasty and overall very enjoyable. I had a steak and as expected this was delicious and perfectly cooked so I would definitely recommend. The setting was good, with modern decor and a busy atmosphere. Staff were generally pleasant however if there was one thing to complain about it would be that we felt slightly uneasy when taking time to order and making requests, with one waitress being quite rude. However the good food ruled over this making it overall a positive experience.

My steak was sublime - texture perfect, flavour deep and satisfying. Bearnaise, chips, etc all faultless. An exquisite meal.

Lovely staff and the food was great to match. Definitely one to remember. Menu was very interesting and the desserts were fantastic. Good wine and beer selections.

So pleased this has replaced the terrible former restaurant.Basically we chose fancy KFC but they also do steaks and an excellent sounding brunch.Staff were perfect; polite, attentive and helpful.

We've previously eaten in the Smithfield branch of Foxlow, so had high expectations of this restaurant and were pleased that they were met. Service was excellent - I ordered a pre-dinner drink that I had never tried before and wasn't overly keen on it, so the waiter offered to change it for another (I hadn't complained or anything, and was quite prepared to drink it!).The food was great, as we expected. We ordered the squid to start and it was well cooked and very flavoursome. We then had a steak and the short ribs, both of which were lovely pieces of meat. The ribs literally fell off the bone.We also had a bottle of house wine. This was nice, but not really anything special. However, it was reasonably priced and so met our expectations.Overall, we had a lovely meal here and will definitely return in the future

I had the Deckle steak which was packed with flavour and extremely tender. The cut can normally be quite fatty but the portion they gave me had just enough to provide bold flavour to the steak but not so much it puts you off. My friend had the beed shortrib with kimichi that feel off the bone and the kimichi was flavour& spice was perfectly balanced. For sides we had the brocolli with chilli and lemon which was a good as it sounds and not normal brocolli florets but the mini sprouting brocolli, and we had the sweet potato mash that came with kale and crispy onion mixed in, really scrummy.Cocktail list was defiantly a shine to my eye, I could spend a whole evening working my way through each one. Coffee for afterwards was scrum scrum scrum. The staff were great, really polite, attentative and on the ball. Plus we got to sit on one of the tables out front on an extremely gorgeous evening. Great night, great meal :-)

So Sunday lunch seemed the opportune time to put the Foxlow through its paces. 6 of us went in and had a good table downstairs. The staff were great; but the food was really really good. 2 of us had the roast and it was as good as you get from one - up till now it was a shoot out between the 3 crowns and the Prince for best local roast but this tops them both. Everyone else's food was also excellent and hats off to the chef for the chocolate tart with salted caramel base. We had to wait a long time (an hour and a half) for our main, but credit where it's due, they took a couple of bottles of wine off the menu and we weren't in a rush anyway. I'll definitely be going back....
