Kerridge's Bar & Grill in City of London, Westminster

Since it is a restaurant inside a 5-star hotel, the atmosphere and service were all perfect. The recommended pork steak and beef steak are fantastic. It was even more delicious because the Korean chef selected and grilled the meat in front of us. The food is so delicious and it's a restaurant I want to go to when there's an event.

Just before Michelin star level. Absolutely nothing to criticize from my side

It lived up to our expectations but the very limited choice in the fixed price £39.99 two course was a disappointment. Mackerel or celeriac soup ? Sorry si we chanced our arm and asked could we have the fixed price lunch £25 one course beef short rib with glass of wine or beer . The chef obliged and the night proceeded in an excellent manner . Beautiful food and we ordered a couple of side dishes too . Super attentive staff lovely building and opulence . I take the point about £52 for a pork chop and £9 per pint . Hard to justify but if the chef and staff had been less accommodating we may have had a different experience, but ours was positive .

A Fantastic Dining Experience I recently dined at Kerridge’s Bar & Grill for lunch and was thoroughly impressed. The service was professional yet welcoming, and the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between sophistication and comfort. The food was outstanding—beautifully presented and full of flavour. The [insert dish you enjoyed most] was a particular highlight. Overall, an exceptional experience that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking memorable dining in London.

10/10 absolutely delicious. We had a Sunday dinner. I just cannot fault it. The food was 10/10, service was superb, lovely decor and great music.

Went for private seating area and set menu. Absolutely amazing food, service, and atmosphere. Will be going back for sure.

Our children treated us for a meal to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We arrived a little early so we're seated in bar for cocktails - which were delicious! Shown to a lovely table for two and congratulated on our anniversary with a card - a nice personal touch. Our waiter asked if we were going on to theatre after as it was an early booking. Duly noted as we were. The dining room is stunning and well laid out so you are not crammed in. Although early and not that busy there was a great vibe - music did not intrude on conversations. We thoroughly enjoyed the food. Well presented and cooked with great ingredients. Service was excellent - courteous and attentive but never rushed. Our desserts arrived and each had little chocolate Happy Anniversary sign! Not a cheap place to eat but for a special occasion it was perfect - thank you!

My family and I came to Tom Kerridge's Bar and Grill for a special meal on boxing day. We were left feeling very disappointed with the whole experience. To start with the canapes, that are usually a good indicator of the meal to come, were hard and we couldn't eat them....we should have been prepared following that! The main course steaks were either undercooked or hardly edable. One was comped from the bill. My fish as undercooked. We were left so disapppointed that we decided not to stay for a desert. We only had one drink each, a gin and tonic, a beer and a prosecco (there were 3 of us) and the bill came to £200! I have written directly to the restuarant manager, who apologised and we were offered dessert and coffee to compensate. However that would mean travelling back to London. I might sound ungrateful and my expectations may be too high, however I didn't feel this made up for the poor food, not very good service and considering it was Boxig Day no atmosphere at all in the restaurant! I challenged the offer as I felt it still didn't make up for such a poor experience, on what should have been a very special occassion. However the offer remains the same. Having seen how Tom Kerridge critiques chiefs on The Great British Menu, I would have thought a restaurant bearing his name would have been far better than this! Please read this before you consider spending alot of money on a special meal.

Could do with a wider selection of vegetables, the food quality was excellent, flavours amazing, service and bit slow.

The team at Kerridge's Bar & Grill made our dinner a delight! Our waiter, Ryan, was a superstar. He was so friendly, answered all of our questions about the menu, and even made my kids laugh with his jokes. The food was fantastic, but it was Ryan’s impeccable service that will keep us coming back.

As a restaurant owner, the food, the service, and the atmosphere were amazing 👏

We are big fans of Tom Kerridge TV programmes and his Corinthia restaurant has all that you would expect of him - up to a point. Ambience and decoration of the restaurant was superb. Staff were excellent - super polite, courteous and efficient. And whilst the food looked as though Tom had made it himself, sadly it was nothing out of the ordinary and the ox cheek frankly was so over seasoned as to be unpleasant. The garlic mushroom side was just that - something simply plonked on the side with no finesse. But it was the prices that caught the eye. I fancied, but declined a lamb chop at £52 and ditto a GLASS of Barolo at £70. We can afford to pay these prices but refuse to do so as they are simply unjustifiable. And having seen and tasted what was served up then we are glad we stuck to simpler choices on the menu. If you want to go - as we did - to say that you have been to a Tom Kerridge restaurant then do so but don’t go with great expectations and do negotiate a second mortgage first. Sorry Tom - there are so many other good restaurants in London that put yours in the shade. Quite a few are more expensive but are actually much better value for money.

A beautiful restaurant, let down by the fatty, tough lamb dish we had.

My recent experience at Kerridge Bar & Grill in London was nothing short of exceptional, particularly in their private dining setting. Our group of 12 was treated to an evening that masterfully balanced refinement with theatrical flair. The main restaurant space speaks elegance with its high ceilings and sophisticated décor, though I noticed it has the potential to get lively during peak hours. Our evening began with perfectly chilled champagne and expertly crafted canapés in the main bar area, setting the tone for what was to come. We were then escorted to our private dining room, where the experience truly elevated – watching the chefs prepare our dishes in front of us added an intimate, interactive dimension to the meal. The sommelier deserves special mention for their thoughtful wine pairings, taking time to explain each selection and how it complemented the dishes. Every dish was executed with precision – from the starters through to desserts, the kitchen demonstrated exceptional consistency. The intimacy of the space combined with the personalized service creates an unforgettable experience. While certainly in the premium dining category, the value delivered through the quality of ingredients, execution, and service justifies the investment for those special celebrations.

A really nice place that offers a wonderful experience around food.

We went for Christmas which has become somewhat of a tradition and was amazed that the venue is a Christmas Free Zone. Not a bauble anywhere. Nothing. The menu changed a month or so ago and I would urge anyone visiting to have a look first. It certainly wasn’t what we expected and our meal was saved by the bar menu. That said all very tasty but at £9.50 for a small portion of the chips it’s starting to get a little bit of a joke The main criticism however relates to the extensive wine list It’s massive and somewhat overwhelming which is where the sommelier comes in. This chap takes pomposity to a different level. I have heard Mr Kerridge state they struggle to make money on food sales; well they more than make up for it on the cost of the wine. We stated what we wanted but the sommelier was pushing us to bottles of £245 upwards and looked appalled when we stuck to our mere £100 a bottle choice. At one point he actually pointed to his gold grape lapel badge and stated it was he that dealt with the wine (but in a ‘alllo’allo accent) when we asked for our additional order which had not arrived. The venue wasn’t busy and yet we still had to chase staff for water etc. Not brilliant to be honest. On the plus side the treacle bread is amazing, the burgers were good and the starters were all very nice. But that’s it-nice. Just nice. We have been coming since it opened and have visited his other venues. Unfortunately, on this occasion it wasn’t as good as previous visits and please make an effort and decorate for Xmas. Why would you not make an effort at what should be a busy time of the year. It may explain why it wasn’t busy on the last Saturday before Christmas Day The rest of the hotel looks amazing as always so it really was noticeable that zero effort has been made to celebrate the “festive season “.

It’s an impressive building that has been expensively and tastefully restored. The plus’s of the experience were the wines - really very nice and a great recommendation from the Sommelier. The negatives were the food; over salted and overly rich and nobody asked us what we thought. Not a patch on The Coach in Marlow which was the best meal we’ve had for years. At the prices the Bar & Grill charges it really needs to be much better.

Pretty poor experience - the door host claimed there was no space despite Opentable showing wide open availability. Unacceptable and discriminatory.

Fantastic service, fantastic food & decor. Had a great time here. Felt very special and was looked after. Great place to go for special occasions, steak was cooked to perfection and plenty of it.

You must eat here for a unique dining experience. Make sure you bring a full wallet because it is pricey. It's worth it for the experience and the delicious food. We were kindly received and our coats were accepted, for which we were given a number that we could give to them again when we had finished eating. We were also kindly received at our table, given advice about the food, and our drinks were replenished very quickly. The atmosphere was very luxurious, but I didn't think the music was appropriate, I would prefer a quieter instrumental. Such as piano or Christmas music in connection with the theme.

Very good experience at this Bar & Grill. Francisco the sommelier did not serve you fantastic🔝 It is very well located

Everything was very good and Francisco's attention was great.

I recently visited for the first time for Sunday lunch having booked in line requesting a quiet and out of the way table to provide room for a service dog. From the moment that we arrived the service was 1st class and the food outstanding. Would definitely recommend and hope to return shortly.

While the ambiance and food were good the service needs some work. We sat at a table with a dirty water glass, but no worries as it happens. We ordered a carafe of wine and were brought only one glass. We had to get the attention of the wine steward and he fixed this. Ordered our meals and added an additional side. My monkfish looked delicious, however upon cutting into it the part closest to the bone needed more cooking. The flesh didn’t want to come away from the bone. We asked for it to be cooked another minute. It was quickly taken care of and came back on a fresh plate and cooked a tad more. We were halfway eating when we realized that none of the sides came to our table. By the time we got the attention of someone and made them aware the sides were missing the remainder of the food went cold. Just a lot of simple mishaps but collectively they put a damper on our otherwise excitement to eat here. I will say they did bring a dessert to try to amend their errors, which I do appreciate but would’ve rather had a better experience.

Staff friendly place very up market inside. I found lunch menu very limited . My friend and I both chose the same. Crab for starter Guinea fowl for main with carrots and small potatoes on the side. The Crab was awful and sat on gooey brown crab jelly that was very unpleasant to taste. The Guinea fowl was Average but over done and the carrots had that much salt in them they burnt my mouth. IPA beer was nice. £8.50 a pint My friend for some reason drank 3 glasses of champagne at a cost of £200( idiot) Bill came to £380 including automatic 15percent gratuity Sorry but I won’t be revisiting even though it was a nice place to sit the food did not float my boat.

My wife and I booked Tom Kerridges restaurant on Sunday 17th November. After a drink at the bar we were then shown to our table things were very positive. After being seated and enjoying our starters it was then it went drastically downhill. We waited over an hour for our main course. Even then it was only because we stopped a staff member. The maitre d came to our table to explain a large group had came in and that had pushed our mains back. As we were seated at the entrance there were not a lot of people entered behind my wife and I. Even worse was the fact the maitre d said this. At that point my wife wanted to leave but we didn’t want to cause a scene. We did reach out direct to the restaurant the following day who kindly offered us a bottle of wine on our return. As we were flying home today I had to decline. Going to Tom Kerridges restaurant was for us about the food and the experience. This was ruined for us.

Its a nice place. Very expensive. Supposed to be wonderful.. not so much. Slow and not so good service. They try to Sell the most expensive wines on the list.

Mooi en gezellig restaurant. Goede en vlotte bediening. Lekker eten maar prijs-kwaliteit te duur. Natuurlijk wel gelegen op toplocatie in Londen.

Amazing food and generous portions. It's not cheap but you know why you're playing premium prices.

Este es un restaurante / bar de moda de calidad inteligente. Hermoso rollo de salchicha canapé con mostaza ligera mayo, panza de cerdo principal y las verduras excelentes. También salsa épica. Hay música del bar que no nos molestó que se sumó al ambiente. Personal muy educado. Pan y mantequilla más allá de lo hermoso. Puedo entender que la gente diga porciones pequeñas como carne de res de mi esposa era una rebanada gruesa, pero eso estaba bien para ella. Porción de vientre de cerdo también bien para el tamaño para mí. Muy recomendable.

Visitó recientemente y tuvo el placer de estar en el comedor privado! Todo era fantástico, no lo recomendaría más Todo el personal, especialmente en la recepción, parecía importarle realmente si lo pasamos bien o no y se esforzó por que fuera memorable.

Terrible meal over priced for what we had

The food was good although I would not order again lamb chops because it was a little bit fatty meat for me. The atmosphere was very nice . The service was good too but what pissed me off and why I put three stars is that you charge 15% of service charge as a mandatory fee. Tips should be given based on the client experience. Your price in the menu should include everything and if you want to get more money, you need to increase the price in the menu but not to trick people in this way. It was very negative experience for me. You will not face it in the USA or Canada because it is optional but people give good tips for the service if they had it.

Bar And Grill Restaurant. Hubby booked on 2/11/24 as a birthday surprise, had the Cotswold white chicken in garlic brine with a chasseur sauce and was very disappointed. The dish did not have any wow factor for the price paid. 🙁 Was given a chocolate birthday treat and a Gary Rhodes bread and butter pudding which was nice. 🙂 On the whole would really look again at menu if I go back.🤔

Absolutely excellent in every way! Great place & the whole experience for my wife’s birthday was superb. The steaks & Lamb are highly recommended. Will definitely be returning.

The most over salted fish I’ve ever had. I had to drink 5L of water that same day after lunch at this restaurant.

My best friend took me to Tom Kerridge's Bar and Grill restaurant for my 50th birthday, and it was so lovely. As you can see, the food was ever so exquisite. I have never refined restaurant food, and it was a lovely surprise from my best friend. The food was equally amazing, but don't take my word for it. Have a look at the pictures I have posted. The atmosphere was amazing and loved the decor of the restaurant. I think this will be a start to go to many new places in the near future. To top it off, I got a card from Tom and his team, and what really blew me away the detail they went to when they gave me my dessert, it even said Happy Birthday on the cake. Thank you to my best for taking me there but also to Tom and his team for making my 50th birthday a memorable one.

Unfortunately well below expectation. We came with friends following good review of the chef. Nice big room with high celling, friendly and professional staff, thank you! Steak was below expectations - very average to say the least. I was many times in other London grills - this one is below average, thought nothing so obvious to return it to the kitchen. Just regret ordering it at all. Other food - fish and lamb ordered by my friends were OK and even good. Deserts were good. Espresso was complete joke - guys you really have to consider improving your skills. What I did like - reading the wine list. It was good indeed! Big (huge!) minus - the restaurant was very noisy. Very loud music to no one's taste. It really interfered with communication. Conclusion - never again. There are plenty of restaurants better then this. The chef is famous, but I doubt he ever supervised the restaurant.

While the service was outstanding , the food was disappointing. That was one of the smallest lobsters I have ever eaten and had a lot done to it in an attempt to make it different. The mushroom tart was bland and the sides were all over-salted. The plaice was probably the only dish with a bit going on other than the tortellini soup which was amazing. Overall nothing in terms of the dishes would make us want to go back (soup aside) and a bit of a let down.

I came here for a birthday and didn't look at the menu or restaurant beforehand... Approaching the restaurant I almost felt scared to walk in as I thought I'd need to remortgage my home just to have a decent meal... How foolish and relieved I was. The set menu for a 3 course was only £47, it came with a complementary canape which was a Ham and cheese croquette, gorgeous warmed bread and butter, and we ended up choosing the Duck Parfait, Lamb Scotch egg, Steak Bavette and Blackcurrant and white chocolate cookie with Blackcurrant ice-cream and crumble souffle. Just devine. I took off one star as the steak Bavette was over seasoned, with seasoned fries, seasoned carrots and over seasoned peppercorn sauce, I think next time I'll ask for it without salt. Overall a lovely beautiful classy place that didn't break the bank, shockingly.

Stunning hotel, popped in for a drink, gorgeous cocktail, beautiful bar, nice vibe, nice staff

Really great staff, friendly and kind. From the moment we arrived the service was outstanding. We were celebrating a birthday and the added extras were a real treat. The food was incredible, the pork chop was by far the best chop I have ever eaten !! We will be going back for sure..... a super night !

I was disappointed by a lot of elements, yet very impressed with some. We started with a complementary croquette, which was good, but not to the extent that I'd ordered it again. I then ordered the Apollo Spritz cocktail (non-alcoholic) which was really good. I got two courses from the set menu: the Lamb Scotch Egg and Massaman Sauce, and the Bavette Steak, Fries, and Peppercorn Sauce; and the Cox Apple Crumble Soufflé from the à la carte. The Scotch Egg was undercooked for me; still too pink in side. The quail egg itself was good. Didn't not like the sauce at all. I just did not enjoy the flavours of the dish at all. Very disappointed, since I love Scotch eggs when done well at quality restaurants. The Bavette Steak was way too rare for me. I understand that this is just the way Bavette is served which is why the waiters don't ask how you'd like it cooked, but I was ignorant of that when ordering, so perhaps my bad. I could have asked for it to be cooked more but was actually full at this point. The fries and the Peppercorn steak were good, but everything in general was a bit too salty. However, the dessert was phenomenal. At first, I was a little concerned the soufflé may drop and would as least definitely get cold, when my dessert was brought out prematurely, but to the credit of the staff, they corrected without prompting (the mark of a professional establishment) and removed the dessert. They then brought out all the desserts for our table together. I loved everything about the soufflé, the custard, and ice cream. Flavours and textures that were creative and refreshing. Pretty decent cappuccino, too. I appreciated the extra touches throughout the service, with the bread basket, complementary croquette, and little cookies with the cappuccino. Small additions to be sure, but gestures that make a dining experience just that little bit more enjoyable. All in all, I would go back, even if just for the soufflé! I'd definitely be up for trying other desserts on the menu, too.

My second time here and keep loving the llace & staff. Classic, stylish, wonderful building, high-quality food and professional staff.

Super Fancy place - we were hoping for more a nice pub atmosphere. This is a fancy schmancy place and does cost $$$$$$. The service is ridiculous over the top. Table side service for appetizer / sauces - cute and nice but why? The portions are big so u can definitely share them. We had the pate as well as lamb and the Skate/ fish 🐟 and a gem salad. All very good .. and very generous we also had a bottle of red/dolcetto amazing and a ok price compared to the others wines. In any case you will easily spend 300+ GBP for dinner - just fyi. 💂🐟🐑🍷💰

Unique dining experience. Perfect for date night or friends’ outing.

Never eaten a tough fillet steak until last night was rather disappointing. But worse my husband was up all night very sick with food poisoning from the chicken liver parfait. We stayed in the hotel that the restaurant is situated in and heard other guests express the same issues.

Fantastic place, great food especially the steaks and a great atmosphere. We were served by Sam who was brilliant as was the sommelier (sorry didn’t get the name!)

The service and the atmosphere is amazing but the food was OK. The presentation of the food is nice but it had no flavor. The wine selection was great.

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Set lunch menu was excellent value. Staff were available without being intrusive. Brilliant location too. And I really liked the bread!

Dinner at Kerridge Bar and Grill is an evening that felt like stepping into someone’s well considered vision of what a great venue should be. I dug the decor, the lighting and the welcoming staff and clinking of fine glass. After we ordered we got a little gift of a ham and cheese croquette with a delicious light mustard sauce. I knew we were in safe hands. The Duck Parfait arrived and was smooth like great jazz —rich, velvety, and just the right touch of something decadent, with an orange chutney and a well toasted, delicious brioche - it is the sort of dish that makes you want to lean back and close your eyes: like great jazz. The Dressed Crab mixed the white and brown sweet meaty flavours of what I love about crab, with none of the hard work of enjoying it placed on me, you could tell the staff in the kitchen did all the hard work so you could focus on the bliss, knowing that it didn’t need any frills - it came with confit egg yolk and a sourdough cracker I could only hope to be good enough to learn to make - it was purity on a plate. I enjoyed the Blanc de Blanc and Rose I paired with these. Then came the mains, we went for red meat options, it seems to be the place. The waiters gave us a good run down of the chef’s larder. I went with the 300g Ribeye, it was medium rare perfection and juicy pink within, to anyone who appreciates a properly cooked steak with a great bearnaise - this place is a sanctuary. The Barnsley Lamb Chop - I didn’t know until I was finished that the things on the top were little bits of lamb tongue, but it the best lamb chop I’ve had in ages. You could eat the fat with the meat as I went as it was so well rendered, the meat so well cooked. I ordered a glass of Pinot Noir recommended by the sommelier and it was a perfect match for me, and I love Pinot Noir at the moment. We threw in some chips for good measure, and a side salad that I initially worried might be too basic, but proved me wrong like only great food can, it was simple but worked to balance the rest of the meal. The staff hovered around the perfect amount, like friendly ghosts, never intruding but always there when needed. When it came time for dessert - we waited til after mains to order - but I was so impressed with everything else and am a sucker for Bread and Butter Pudding. As a recent immigrant to UK, I’m not super familiar with Gary Rhodes - how he is connected the establishment or why his name is on the Bread and Butter pudding, but it was a superbly elevated take on a classic comfort food. I loved how sticky and crème brûlée-ish the topping was, I was a bit unsure of the chocolate ice cream but the whole thing worked. The Ramos Pinto 2018 LBV Port that paired with it wrapped the whole meal up in a warm, opulent bow. As good as the food was - and it was fantastic - I felt blessed that it was matched by the quality of the shared conversations and connections at that table that made the night unforgettable. Kerridge’s menu is timeless, in a way that could feel dated if each dish wasn’t like an exemplar for what each dish should be. It is the kind of place you come to when you want to to set a bar for what a great one is. It felt like home, if my home was much nicer and fancier. It was a special moment for me and the people I dined with, and it was the perfect venue for anyone needing a location for these kinds of moments: a special place for special people having special conversations they’ll remember. Epicurus said you should always start by looking for who to eat and drink with before looking for what to eat and drink. I chose both well tonight. To close with a quote from another the great philosopher, Arnold Schwarzenegger: ‘I’ll be back’.

Stopped in for a mid-day G&T. Lovely conversation with the bartender. Beautiful space. Would come back for a bigger celebratory meal.

Very disappointed with the food....service was exceptional but unfortunately didn't live upto its ratings.

Visited here finally after a last minute hotel cancellation put paid to a previous visit. Disappointed, in a word. Let’s get the positives in first - the staff are an absolute credit to this establishment. Without exception, some of the best service we’ve experienced this side of 3 star establishments we have been fortunate enough to experience. Warm, friendly and attentive. A credit to Mr Kerridge. In addition, we had an issue with a dish tonight which was dealt with superbly. Quick and efficiently done by the staff. Although I read some of the other reviews and our experience seems common practice. No matter- it was appreciated. The downsides then. The food is overpriced. I would say by about £15 per main course and at least £5 per starter. That meant our meal should have come in £40 cheaper than it was. £45 for the plaice dish is laughable for what it is. Over £50 for lamb similarly eyebrow raising. And to the drinks….£14 for a small glass of wine (150ml) again is a bit rich. If this purports to be a bar and grill, then £250 for 2 courses including service for unexceptional food and expensive drinks will sadly be a one-off experience as opposed to a destination where one wants to return to.

The food was amazing, the service was fantastic and the atmosphere was great. Was expensive but we had a lot of booze. I thought the food was reasonably priced. Super delicious

My partner and I had a lovely experience here. The surroundings, the staff and the food were all exceptional. The staff made our lunch extra special and were very helpful and friendly. The food was amazing. We are from the set lunch menu and could not fault it. We are definitely going back.

Probably the best meal I've ever had. Worth every cent.

We had a good meal, food was tasty, albeit rich and filling. Flavours are big, bold and manly! We opted for the set menu as all 3 dishes really appealed, and at £47.50 it represented great value. The restaurant is cavernous, with generously spaced tables and clubby leather banquettes, all very comfortable. The kitchen is visible and hung meat proudly showcased in glossy cabinets. Service, as anticipated, was polished, informed and friendly - 10 out of 10. It was quiet on our mid week August visit, so not awash with ambience, but this didn’t matter, we were there for the food, and by and large, it came up trumps.

Amazing food and attention to detail, great atmosphere and the service was second to none.

Absolutely faultless from start to finish! We were shown to our lovely booth and food and service was impeccable! They had noted it was our anniversary, and gave us a card on arrival and happy anniversary dessert to share. The ribeye steak was up there with the best I’ve eaten and we could not fault anything at all! 11 out of 10! Keep up the good work.

In London, in summer, it would be hard to find a more pleasant place for a quiet drink and chat with friends and family than Kerridge's Bar and Grill. The staff were so helpful. One of my sons said it was the best Old Fashioned he had been served in many years. We enjoyed hearing about Tom Kerridge and bought his signed cookbook. It was such fun we went two nights in a row!

Visted Kerridges today and have to say the food, whilst very well cooked and presented, was massively overpriced. £52 for a Barnsley Chop is outrageous. £9.50 for 10 or so thrice cooked chips and £17 for a cocktail. Great food and staff but cost took the edge off, much better value for money at a good local pub.

what a class establishment. absolutely superb.

We decided to celebrate my 30th birthday at Kerridge's as a special treat. My husband and I had high expectations as reviews have been so positive. The service was wonderful. All of the staff were exceedingly kind and helpful. The atmosphere was very nice as well. Unfortunately the food was a massive disappointment. For a £300 meal, we were expecting so much more. Our cocktails were delicious, even if a bit pricey. We also decided to get a bottle of wine with our meal. The wine was £75 and extremely disappointing. After doing a bit of research I found the same bottle online for £20, which explains why it was so disappointing. We ordered the lamb and the quail as our mains. The lamb was half fat; the fat wasn't rendered down and it was basically inedible. The sauce on the lamb tasted burnt and quite unflavoured. It was £50 for the lamb and I was extremely disappointed with the quality and the preparation. My husband said his quail tasted burnt as well. The puddings were quite nice. My husband had the set menu and I was gifted a dessert for my birthday. In all honesty we would not have stayed for dessert if he had not had the set menu but I'm glad we did. Overall I would not return to this restaurant. There are places with much better food for half the price.

The steaks are fantastic . We started with quails egg scotch eggs. Our friends had fish dishes. My wife had chicken & i had the steak ( ribeye ) . The Gary Rhodes b & butter pud finished off a fab meal...! 👌🏼

We had a fabulous lunch here. Shared a lovely steak, good wine list, the strawberry soufflé was a treat also!!

Great British cuisine, relaxed but elevated environment and professional, friendly service from beautifully turned-out staff. My wife and I enjoyed an unhurried three course dinner, with my wife choosing the FT reviewer's set menu. What was served to us both wasn't just food, it was flawless cuisine and a wonderful experience. The prices were fair considering the level of expertise that must have gone into the delivery and flavour. Highly recommended for visitors and locals alike.

I rarely post poor reviews but felt I had to in this case. We dine out a lot and enjoy a wide range of restaurants, from fine dining to quirky smaller places, but Kerridge’s is wildly expensive for truly poor food- over salted, undercoooked/raw and just plain odd or unpleasant tasting at times. The service was lovely however, and the team did their very best, and the hotel and restaurant are very pretty. But completely disappointing meal (and there were several of us dining so it wasn’t just one dish) and extremely expensive for the quality of the food. They didn’t charge us for one main course which was inedible, and offered two desserts free of charge, which was kind.

Excellent - British food at its best - beautifully prepared and presented

Absolutely beautiful food and atmosphere. The trolley of champagne that came is definitely a plus. Beef is lovely & so is the wide range of wine selection

A treat with a chum from London. Faultless dinner we loved.

Nice enough - but the food was very rich.

Horribly overpriced. The roast was tough and unduly small; they neglected to bring the vegetables; the bread and butter pudding had an absurdly sweet brulee crust; they had the gall to auto-apply a 15% service charge; and not the self-respect to offer recompense despite recognised mistakes.

Very pleasant experience. I was a walk-in and they welcomed me for coffee and dessert.

The bread was very good. Starters lovely Mains - not the quality you would expect for the price. Desserts - the creme brulee was under cooked. The bread & butter pudding was over cooked. Waiting staff fantastic and very knowledgeable. Wine list heavily overpriced.

Truly awesome experience. Excellent service, excellent food, unique expensive atmosphere! Very accommodating. Thank you for making our evening.

Extremely average. Was really looking forward to dining here and was left very underwhelmed. My partner had the duck parfait which he said was excellent and I had the crab which was ok. He then had the lobster and at £85 was expecting it to be exceptional but was very disappointed. I had the chicken which was lovely and the sauce was incredible. We couldn’t get our heads round the fact the mains came with half a tiny jacket potato which looked like it had been in the microwave (not crispy!). My partner asked if he could have chips instead of potato with his main and he was told it wouldn’t be possible. Then when we ordered puddings we noticed chips on the menu! The puddings are the highlight. I had the soufflé and my partner had the Paris Brest which were both amazing. Considering the bill came to £300 for two we were left very disappointed with the food. Sadly we won’t be back. Sorry Tom, you seem like a lovely guy but you let us down this time

Amazing experience, impeccabile service with Nicolo’. Wide selection of wines by the class and super knowledge sommelier Dominik. It was my first time, I think I had the best fish and chips ever 😋 I will be back soon!

To run a successful business, you need an excellent product, a great team, and efficient processes. The moral of the long and boring story below is the restaurant fell short in several areas, particularly for kids, vegetarians, or anyone with dietary restrictions. They used to have menus catering to these needs, but not anymore. Plus, the service was slow. 1. **Product**: - The food and drink are the highlights here, with the triple-cooked chips being the best I've ever had. However, the rest of the food was just okay, not exceptional. For four adults and a child, the bill came to £450, which didn't match the overall experience. 2. **People**: - The staff were friendly, but there were some issues: - We had to ask four different people to explain the vegetarian or kid-friendly options. Even if it’s a new menu, the team should be well-informed. - Despite not ordering starters, it took an hour for our food to arrive after we were seated. - Our wine glasses were frequently refilled, but one friend who wasn't drinking was never asked if they wanted a different beverage. - We requested vegetarian soup, but my friend ended up with a mouthful of eel. While the team corrected the bill and removed the service charge, it was still a hassle. 3. **Process**: - Every team member, from front of house to busboy, should know the menu, especially with only about 30 items on it. - They had to check the hotel restaurant for a pasta option for the kids, which was disappointing since there used to be dedicated kids and vegetarian menus. - We didn’t know these menus were cut, and it made the dining experience challenging compared to our previous visits. As a result, we won’t be coming back. - It’s ironic that the hotel bar nearby offers kid-friendly options like fish and chips and burgers. Better customer service would have suggested these alternatives. Overall, it was a lot of effort for a less than satisfying experience.

This is the 2nd time i have visited this restaurant, on both occasions found the food well below what was expected. We were there yesterday for a friends birthday. The initial greeting for the North Bar was excellent and service was very good, however this is run by the hotel, we had drinks and nibbles and our unfinished drinks were transferred to the grill restaurant, this is where things went wrong. The service was less than attentive, it was 50 minutes before we received our starters although the restaurant was only about 30% full. The food when arrived was bland, the crab was very salty, the main course of Monkfish was tasteless as was the lamb chop and this was tough, our friend also found the ham very tough The broccoli was extremely salty and un-edible the chicken was good but overall a poor experience for £550.00.

I had the best roast potatoes in my life. The food was average for its price point.

We had an excellent evening meal to celebrate a work event. The food was creative and perfectly prepared. The lamb was divine and the young sommelier Emma was excellent in her pairing choices. The starters were also complimented by a fun and engaging trolley of condiments allowing every mouthful to have a unique twist. The front of house Cynthia helped to ensure everything went smoothly. Will definitely return and highly recommend.

We enjoyed a family dinner together! Lovely food, drinks, and service in a beautiful restaurant! Thank you for looking after us!

Really lovely staff and good food! They gave my parents a dessert for their anniversary with a card and everything. A lovely experience for all of us!

Excellent food and outstanding service I definitely recommend

Staff are so polite and really spoilt me, as I was celebrating my birthday. Had the famous fish & triple cooked chips, let's just say it's the best fish & chips I've ever had. Oven chips just simply will never hit the spot again after having Kerridges chips. Absolutely loved it here, the restaurant is beautiful & I was made to feel very special. Highly recommend. They bent over backwards to help us & to accommodate our food allergies. I cannot praise Kerridges enough. It is a must for foodies & Tom Kerridge fans. Fantastic atmosphere & so friendly. I even got a birthday card from them & I was able to treat myself to Tom's New cookbook, which is signed, which I'm thrilled about. Absolutely wonderful place to have a meal.

Everything is perfect. English atmosphere guaranteed

Very nice place and the food is very good. Suitable for celiacs. Gluten-free fish and ship. Wonderful service.

Exceptional food and service. Don't miss the unique culinary experiences like the unforgettable British Menu 2023 featured dishes - ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’ (Lobster Tail with Thai Green Velouté) and dessert inspired by a Banksy. Also we enjoyed the Cotswold chicken, and steak. Will definitely be back!

We enjoyed dinner here on 23rd May and would absolutely recommend. Kerridge's is a perfect choice for both food and atmosphere, as you might expect from Tom Kerridge. Pre-dinner cocktails in an impressive setting were a lovely start to a special evening. The Balloon Girl dessert is one not to be missed and is full of surprises. What made it all absolutely memorable was the faultless service throughout, which just added to the theatre and experience of it all. A very impressive and memorable evening.

I was so looking forward to eating here. I ordered the John Dory at £60.00 I was expecting something special, it was not the fish was undercooked and taste was lacking it wasn’t worth £60.00. Some of our party had the fish and chips which again the fish was under cooked or over cooked and very salty . In my opinion it is not worth the money. My starter of potted crab was nice and the chocolate mousse was nice too. There was no veggie menu offered as far as I was aware too our table . Service was good and I loved the bar

The food here is really bad. Very over worked and over priced. The asparagus starter was so bad. Asparagus puree and some little pieces of cooked asparagus and some weird giant prawn cracker thing. Boiled asparagus with olive oil, salt and pepper would have been so much nicer. Over priced pretentious rubbish.

Small portions grossly overpriced

I had high expectations of the menu/ food but unfortunately they are overrated compared to the price we paid. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and we wanted to experience a Michelin restaurant experience but sadly we left disappointed. There are better places for less price. Service was very good though from Oana (server) and Dominique (sommelier).

Wonderful cocktails at the bar. Can recommend the Kintsugi Fizz and Painters Palette. Great selection of food from wagyu burger and triple cooked chips to a fancier plate of venison. Staff where friendly and attentive. Good quality cooking and produce costs a bit more.

Hired the private dinning room for 12 guests, staff were very accommodating. We didn’t opt for the private chef, but would suggest it. Menu was exquisite, would opt for the ‘great british menu’ options if you would like entertainment in addition to flavour, the hispi cabbage side dish, beef wellington and banksy inspired desert were particular favourites.

Second time we have been here and not quite up to the same standard (the first time a year ago was excellent) We had the menu du jour and service was very good. The amuse bouche was nice, but as we also had ordered mushroom parfait it did end up as a bit of bread overload. Fish and chips were tasty and the chips exceptional, but the fish, although nice, wasn't as good as a decent one at my local chippy, with quite a lot of batter. The cheese dessert course lacked a bit of imagination. Why not two different cheeses, rather than two slices of the same. Overall though, very good. Not sure why this restaurant is dog friendly. Is it hygenic ? Still, we are a dog friendly nation and obviously dogs win. One of those things we have caved in to, as well as service charges on bills.

After years of watching Great British Menu, we’d thought about going to one of Tom Kerridge's restaurants, and since we were taking a trip to London for a theatre show seemed like a good opportunity. We arrived slightly early for our 5:30 reservation, we were warmly welcomed and given the option to relax at the bar or proceed to our table. After being seated and presented with menus, each one was explained clearly. A gentleman approached with a drinks cart, offering to explain all the different choices. My wife and I both had a glass of champagne. After ordering our food bread served with a delightful canopy, and our starters were equally delicious. Inspired by the Great British Menu, I chose the lobster tail, while my wife had a steak tartare. For mains, we both chose the wagyu burger, which, although tasty, proved to be a messy choice. I regretted my choice of the burger for this reason and wish I’d picked something more adventurous. For dessert, we both knew we wanted balloon girl, a creation by head chef Nick Beardshaw. Presented beautifully and bursting with flavor, it was a fitting end to our meal. We were impressed by the attentive service and quick delivery. As our champagne ran low, the staff offered refills or alternatives, and we chose from some cocktails while waiting for our mains. After finishing we requested the bill, obviously knew it was going to be expensive. Although worth noting a 15% service charge added, which may catch some diners off guard. All in all, it was a pleasant experience, however, if we weren’t fans of the Great British Menu it’s probably somewhere we wouldn’t have gone otherwise.

Amazing grub. We came here for the Sunday roast and left wanting to have more even though we did not have room in our bellies. Pricey but the attention by wait staff and the best food we ate in London made it worth the amount. Will definitely be back when we visit London again.

What a wonderful evening! I’m heavily pregnant and as soon as I arrived they went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable by offering me another cushion, which was incredibly thoughtful. The food was excellent- I’ve eaten in another Kerridges restaurant so knew the standards to expect and wasn’t disappointed. They told us the stories behind the food and drinks which was a lovely touch & really felt like they cared. Great atmosphere. A very special evening and highly recommended.
