I came here because I saw it rated as having among the best sticky toffee puddings in city of London. I had that and a pot of English breakfast tea in the mid-afternoon. The sticky toffee was fabulous and the service was attentive and top-notch. It was a warm, welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend.

Wow this place is expensive, £36 for a pie with no sides, £8 for very small sides, £18 for a scotch egg starter. Food is good, service is impeccable. Went there Sunday afternoon 2.30 and the only people dining, I saw the prices and worked out why.

Quite simply a ridiculous price for a very poor quality pork pie. It was overcooked and dry. The drink prices are the a real punishment. £123 each for pie, mash and a shared dessert, plus two drinks.

Objectively everything was very good, wonderful environment and impeccable service, we met a very professional and friendly Italian waiter who recommended us. The price, however, is definitely out of focus, you pay for the splendid environment, the food is undoubtedly well made but not drastically better than others with lower prices and more generous portions. Having lunch here is still a memorable experience. Water over 5 pounds is just a joke.

Holborn dining room didn't hit right. Overpriced food for the quality and high end restaurant practices like charging extra for sides that weren't that great. It felt like it was acting above its station, putting in airs. The service was attentive but almost interruptively so with many checks to ask if everything was ok and lots of water refills that interrupted our conversations. That might have been added to by the small tables of course. Chairs were small and uncomfortable and the toilets a long walk away. It all added up to a distinctly average experience.

There are surely a number of ways to engage the experience at the Holborn Dining Room, and looking for a quick (if high-end) Full English is just one of them. I saw a suitable item on the menu for £28, and ordered. The eggs were not quite to order, but overall it was a fantastic breakfast. I would have liked a second cup of coffee while I was eating, but this being London, my server was nowhere to be found during the brief meal. When the bill came, I was surprised to see a charge for £42, not £28. It was a good breakfast, but perhaps not *that* good. When I inquired, the waiter explained that the £42 package comes with coffee. I informed him that I would not be paying £14 for an Americano. He fetched the manager, who explained that the £14 netted me not just coffee, but also toast! The toast came in a super British little metal rack next to the plate and included no shortage of butter, but again, this seemed a bit excessive, even for High Holborn. However, it was clear that while she was apologetic, she was going to stick to her guns—and after all, I received all the value of the more expensive menu item, even if it wasn't clear which one I was ordering. (When I placed my order, I simply said "Full English," not "Full English for £28, not the ambiguous other one for £42," so they had a tenuous case to make, if a rather customer-abusive one.) In sum, a truly negative experience, despite an elegant dining room and a basically well-executed fry-up.

An amazing early dinner experience we visited on a Friday in October 2024. Having our dog with us was an added bonus.. Food was exceptional with their rump of lamb, sticky toffee pudding and apple tart being notably excellent. Our mains were slightly delayed and we were happy to wait. The waiting staff offered us complementary desserts which were lovely. The waiting staff are very attentive and helpful while we were there with our eighty five year old mother. Dinner with drinks and the very kind gesture of the management resulted in £91 per person for a party of three + dog. Would thoroughly recommend the Holborn dinning rooms for a special occasion. Just make sure you book in advance as the place gets busy after 8 pm. If you are driving I would recommend you use the NCP Bloomsbury Square car park about four minutes walk away. Since parking is only available if you have a room reservation at the adjoining Rosewood Hotel.

We really wanted a vegan Wellington and surprisingly this place had one and it was pretty good. It's a bit on the fancy side so felt a bit out of place but they treated us the same as everyone else. Everyone else was dressed in suits and us, just comfortable street clothes. There isn't many options for vegan but they had enough to have a great meal. If you want a vegan Wellington I'd highly recommend this place. I'm sure their regular Wellington is also pretty good.

Food was ok but can never take this place seriously as they've decided to dress all their waiting staff as Scottish clowns 😂.

I came here with my friends and their 2 kids under 5 years old for dinner, and we had such a lovely time. Sylvia, Nikola, and the entire waitstaff were so attentive and made sure the kids were well taken care of. They received a nice coloring book/crayon set in addition to a stuffed animal dog near the end of the dinner, and the kids were so happy. I am pregnant, and the waiters took care to ensure that the food would be safe. We ordered the pork and the chicken meat pies, and both were delicious. My friends indulged in their outstanding gin selection guided by their gin expert. Out of our 10 day vacation to the UK, which included several bib gourmand and Michelin star restaurants, we received the most personable and thoughtful service this meal. We could not have been happier!

It's a beautiful looking place and I loved the atmosphere and the service as well. However, the food was a let-down. My pork pie was red on the inside and black on the outside. I hoped it would taste better than it looked but was disappointed. The prices are outrageous and you simply don't get what you pay for here. I know, I know, you've conducted market research and found your prices to be competitive. This is not a restaurant that listens to its customers. If you have money to burn and low standards, this is the place for you. If you just want to go for drinks, then sure, but it will cost you.

We stopped in here for dinner one night on a recent holiday from Australia, and I am so glad we did! Lovely ambience, staff were friendly and just the right amount of attentive. Our waitress gave great recommendations, the cocktails were delicious, as was the wine. We had pies - I had the braised beef and it was amazing - easily one of the best pies I have ever eaten and I feel that says a lot from an Australian who loves a good pie. The carrots were also delicious and the petit fours a really nice unexpected touch. Overall, a lovely experience and will hopefully become a tradition for us whenever we travel over there.

Heard great things about the pie room so we came here to try it out. We got a few starters, the tomato salad was delicious and refreshing. Scotch eggs were tasty, the egg was nice and gooey. Pate en croute was also nice. The pies we got were the chicken and mushroom and beef ones, the beef pie was quite dry inside and had a bitter taste which we weren’t too keen on, and couldn’t taste any blue cheese either. Chicken and mushroom pie was slightly better but it wasn’t something worth raving about. The battered haddock was nice, had a good crispy shell. Texture was great. The tartare sauce was bland. Chips and truffle & Parmesan fries were delicious, perfectly fried, fluffy and crisp. Seasoning was excellent. Mash potato was standard. Both desserts were got, sacher and custard tart were nice to end the meal with. Service was superb and staff were friendly and tentative.

We booked this as treat for my wife’s birthday. Upon arrival the team were taking negatively about each other! We were then placed in an empty section at the back of the restaurant and assured that other customers would join the area. I can only describe it as ghostly! With all the other customers at the front on the restaurant, to be honest the atmosphere wasn’t fantastic anywhere in the restaurant! We then had to ask to be moved as no one came as promised as we where just sat their alone! The only atmosphere was coming from a party in the hotel courtyard! Americans from the music industry, I believe? Anyway, not only did they make rude comments at my wife as she when to the loos, but argued and shouted throughout our whole meal! (Btw.. they where your guests, not mine) So to sum up our experience! Awful! This is not a cheap venue and with a premium price, you expect premium service! At this price! Book elsewhere!!!!

We came for the pies! My friend loves pies, I decided to give her a treat at the Holborn dining room. She had a pork pie with fries (extra charge). Turned out the pie was overcooked, dry and very salty. The portion is small and it costs £28. It is definitely not the best pie we have tried and I think not worth it. The place is alright as it locates in Rosewood hotel. However the table is small and pretty close to next table. I had octopus carpaccio to start with, great presentation, good portion. The citrus purée was too intense and strong that overpowered the umami of the octopus. For the main, I had grilled miso glazed aubergine. Again, beautifully decorated, balanced flavours. But the aubergine would taste better if it is pan-fried with olive oil. Overall, disappointing, especially the pie. won’t come back again for what I had paid for.

The first time I felt unsatisfied with the extremely unprofessional and undelicate behavior of the restaurant staff. Being at an event in London, I was looking for a cafe to rest. A nice lady from the terrace gave me the menu and suggested I move to other tables as my area was reserved by a group of people. That’s fine! She suggested another table outside, and I felt quite hot due to too much sun in the area. Then, she asked me if I would prefer to be inside. I took the menu and came inside. When I asked to order, another lady came and requested me to move outside again, stating that if I ordered dessert and drinks from the terrace menu, it was not allowed, and she suggested I order from the dine-in menu. After she realized I was seated outside from her colleague, she told me to wait for her to verify. When she returned, she asked me to move outside without any apology for the inconsistency in service. Then, I refused to be served with the disrespectful attitude. Finally, before I walked out, another colleague wanted to come and ask for help, then the lady who provided unprofessional service said, 'That’s fine,' with a discriminatory attitude. Does Rosewood London treat customers according to its standards?

The place looks classy and it’s a great spot for a quiet lunch. However, the food is ridiculously overpriced for the quality; in fact a salad we ordered as a starter was sent back as it was so poor. The miso aubergine dish wasn’t cooked properly, and was lukewarm. In addition to the poor food, the drinks are far too expensive. We left feeling as if we’d been well and truly fleeced. Avoid.

The food is delicious. The breakfast Cumberland saysage is cooked perfectly--crispy outside, juicy delicious inside. Would not recommend black pudding or fresh squeezed orange juice out of season. Pudding was bitter and orange juice overly sour and tart. Doesn't take away from the top class experience though. Servers were on top of it and very friendly. Next day: quinoa porridge and scrambled eggs with added truffle. All great, but the truffle didn't have taste or aroma, so the eggs tasted as though they had nothing additional on them. Which was still delicious and a perfectly cooked medium scramble. Just save some money with the truffle :) The drinks are even better! Henrico and Ambra made our night at the bar. We've gone back each night since to see them! I'm pregnant, so Henrico made up a Virginia mocktail and added some extra, personalized twists to make it tasty. My husband doesn't tend to like gin but wanted to try it (since there are so many gin options at the bar), so Ambra investigated what he does tend to like and made him some concoction of citrus cordial (that she made herself) and the house gin. It was a hit! Kind, friendly, and clearly go above and beyond!! Go see them ☺️

Literally my second most favourite place in the world after Scotts. I live in Marylebone but often jump the tube to Holborn for one of their hand made chicken pies, golden crunchy chips and heritage carrots. Extensive reasonable and excellent wine list. Service is always excellent. I take people all the time and everyone is wow did not know this place. Very reasonable price point. Pies are pretty as a picture. The consistency of delivery over the years is incredible. Must have been 50+ times and perfect each time.

It was better than any food I had in England. It was 48 pounds of beef Wellington, and the Wellington meat was so tender, the mushroom flavor was amazing, and the sauce was perfect, not too salty or strong. The bread served with the potatoes is also a bit hard, but it goes very well together. I drank the recommended wine and it went very well with Wellington. The Beef Wellington season at nearby Kerridge's Bar & Grill was over, so the chef there recommended it, and I'm sure the chef would cook high-quality food, too. The food and service here were better than any restaurant I've experienced in London. I hope you stop by and experience Wellington and pie.

Food The beef wellington was delicious. It was first said to be 38 pounds but the waiter came back and told us it was 48 pounds. The beef wellingtons came with three potatoes. These were hard as a rock. I couldn't cut them without risking them being catapulted to other guests. We tried to moisten them with the gravy, but these were taken away before we had the chance to do so. I ordered red wine. It was delicious but I have to guess if it was the one I chose. No one showed me the bottle. Service When we entered and stood in front of the reception, we were more or less ignored. No one took our coats. After waiting at the bar and ordering a drink we were guided to our table. We were happy with our appointed seats but the waitress made it seem like we got the bad ones by saying "are you sure you are OK with these seats? Really?" This made us question our choice and think that there might be something wrong with them. The staff was overall friendly. 5 different people helped us which made things a but more difficult for them and us. We could see numerous little incidents (e.g. asked if we wanted something while the check was on the table and we were waiting to pay, one of our coats was forgotten when we left, etc). Atmosphere Beautiful place to sit.

From the point we came in everything was quite chaotic. We were pretty much ignored for a bit, our jackets were not asked to hang in the clothing room while we were standing there. The bottle of wine was not shown as it was poured outside sight. We were put at a nice spot where we were asked multiple times if we were sure about the table, which made us question if we were put in a bad spot. It killed the relaxed vibe. The menu or recommendations for welly wednesday were not explained properly. Beef Wellington was delicious but for a top tier price of 48 pounds we did not expect dry, rock hard potatoes and some garnish veggies or salad at least. Gravy was taken before I finished it. There were so many staff switches that it was unpersonal. For a restaurant with these high prices AND a involuntary 15% tip (which we were definitely not planning to pay for this lacking service) we did not expect the service of a pub. After the check was on the table we got asked by yet anoter waiter if we wanted to order any coffee of dessert. It was very sweet dat we got a complementary dessert for our anniversary. But I have to admit that was the only reason I did not get angry. Very, very disappointed. I felt scammed honestly. Quality comes with a price if the quality is there...

An exceptional chicken pot pie. However, the prices of the drinks are very high, and the wait as well (reservation at 8 p.m. and we ordered at 9 p.m.). Unfortunately the fries are frozen. In short, not crazy value for money, but a chicken pie that is worth the detour.

Nice but a little posh place with proper service, however quality of food is not consistent and wine list is overpriced. Scallops just made my daughter sick for the following day. You expect more on this level

Came here for my birthday and the server made it extra special by bringing us a cake after our meal as a gift. I'm sorry I don't remember his name.

We stopped at the bar for a drink. It’s a lovely location and the service is exceptional! It is a fabulous gin bar and there is a gin bible, Eleanora was knowledgeable about the different types of gins and how they were best served. Our cocktail experience was enjoyable and leisurely! We stopped by chance and hope we will have an opportunity to return in the future.

The perfect place for a well-served and quality “full English breakfast”. A very beautiful, comfortable room, pretty silverware and attentive staff. The place is also known for its British pies! NB: fairly high prices, to which is added 15% service.

We had Rocio as our waitress. She was attentive, kind, and fast. Any question I had she answered. If I come back I'd love to have her again.

We had dinner in this wonderful restaurant with a well-stocked open bar counter. Both the aperitif and dinner included special, high-quality drinks and dishes. The staff was very warm, friendly and attentive towards us. In such a refined environment they made us feel absolutely at ease and welcome. So for all these reasons I absolutely recommend it.

Great venue with a fantastic bar. Gin cocktails are the specialty however this place is great for lunch or an early meal. The service can be a bit patchy. On a quiet Friday afternoon the staff were a bit disorganised and mildly distracted. Menu is traditional and the portions are a bit small for the prices. However, the ingredients are fresh and there is an interesting selection of meat, chicken and vegetable pies (another specialty).

Nice food, great coffee. Sadly the cafe sitting area had some heavy musty smell. As if something in the floors is slowly rotting.
