Milk Beach in Brent

Excited to try this place given the purported Australian influence. Didn't see much of Australian modern cuisine come through in the dishes, but the food was pleasant nonetheless. The must try dish is the oyster mushroom kebab. 10/10. Prompt service in a great part of Soho. Not sure if I would visit again, but I wasn't disappointed.

Banging food, friendly waiters/tresses, great if you want to share some meals for a lunch or dinner. Best takoyaki I’ve had.

Went for drinks as a group of 20 and couldn't have been more impressed with the drinks selection, vibe and service. The bar staff really know their stuff. Talk to them if you are starved of inspiration about what to drink.

Super nice atmosphere and place for old friends gathering. The service was nice and the food is good. But bear in mind that the portion of each plates are relatively small. If you usually eat a lot, it might not be enough for you

Really disappointed. We've been to Milk Beach a few times before and really enjoyed it (I left a glowing, 5 star review in November 2022), so we thought it would be a good place to bring a guest visiting from Spain. We were frankly embarrassed... No are no longer 'allowed' to sit at the bar overlooking the kitchen (where we have always sat before). A shame, because this was fun and fitted in with the relaxed, friendly feel of the place. The main room of the restaurant was dead - only two other tables were occupied. This was surprising for a Thursday evening. Service was a bit pushy and charmless - attempting to upsell us to a grossly overpriced bottle of Vinho Verde (who ever heard of this lovely but generally good value wine being priced at nearly £50???). The menu is too heavily biased towards small plates. Very few large / main plates. The starters were actually very tasty: dumplings, octopus and potato gems - but the portions were tiny, too small for the price. The biggest let down was the chicken schnitty's - this is the restaurant's signature dish. We all had them and they were all terrible: hard, desperately dry, small. one was burnt - if those were made fresh I'd eat my hat (in fact my hat would be more succulent and tastier... no excuse for not preparing them freshly when the restaurant is this quiet). The recipe for the crumb seems to have been changed to a spicier blend - and this was not popular. Over £200 for a poor meal. A great shame as we used to like this place, but we won't be back.

What a place! This restaurant reflects the spirit of Soho - it is cutting edge, stylish, high quality, and has some great food and service. And, for Soho and London, fairly reasonable! Our party of 5 had dinner with drinks and all were superb. The Schnitzy chicken was a crowd favorite, along with the grilled mushrooms. Our helper, Sanya, was excellent with recommendations and set a high bar for service. They will definitely see me again when I am next in London.

Every ingredient exploits in your mouth with a plethora of incredible flavours. 1st Australian cuisine experience, unexpected joy

Sublime food. Every dish is perfectly balanced, nothing is bland or too heavy, and perfectly cooked. The onglet with kimchi, and the octopus croquets are to die for. Cocktails and wines are fabulous and not overpriced, and service is spot on and attentive. I live five minutes away would happily choose this over anywhere in Soho (except its twin restaurant on Greek Street!)

There are many good things to say about Milk Beach in Soho. It is sited in a beautiful courtyard just off the busy streets of Soho. The vibe and decor feel sunny, relaxed and welcoming. The friendly warmth of the staff was a real highlight; from the lovely host who welcomed me on like a long time friend, to the delightful waitress with a sunny smile who was efficient and knowledgeable. The food was fantastic, best breakfast I have had for a long time. I can’t wait to visit again for dinner!

We usually have brunch at Milk Beach, recently went for dinner. Amazing!!! Every dish was beautifully presented, tasted amazing. We are all foodies and were surprised with the new flavours dumblings brought. Masterpiece. Mussels were delicious, potatoes gems a revelation. We had some wine recommended by the staff and all agreed that this was one of the best meals we have had.

The food was excellent, the staff amazing and the place has a great, relaxed atmosphere - you really could be in a restaurant in Australia or somewhere in the Mediterranean. Definitely a destination restaurant - well worth travelling to, or stopping by if you’re in central London. Their take on prawn toast melts in your mouth and makes you want to order more and more and more! The aubergine karaage, chicken schnitty, rib eye and oyster mushroom are all out of this world. For dessert, the lamington was a luscious mix of cake, jam and soft meringue and we had to order another to take home and eat the next day. Great cocktails, the Milk Beach martini highly recommended - don’t forget to eat the garnish, I won’t spoil the surprise, you’ll understand once you try it! Dale, Danny and Nick were great hosts for our celebration dinner.

The restaurant is decorated to a nice standard and there is a relaxed atmosphere in there. The food tasted nice as expected for the price however we had to wait 45 mins for our second course. We had to ask for drinks rounds and for water and when we ordered the drinks they were nowhere to be seen 45 minutes later. When we asked the waiter about this he didn’t even apologise. I would not recommend this place and think the service was terrible. The waiting staff were sprinting round like their lives depended on it and the toilet roll wasn’t even on the holder.

Got to say that after reading lots of good reviews for this place, I thought lunch was pretty underwhelming. It wasnt awful, we ate everything ordered and the staff were obliging, but the food was lacking in taste and wow factor. The chicken schnitty was a pretty ordinary breadcumbed chicken breast, a bit dry and expected a bit of flavour in the coating but alas no, although the mayo was ok. The prawn toast lacked seasoning. Chicken salt fries were good but not enough of them. Mid priced about £45 a head. Nice setting. Not sure I would rush back.

Such a good evening! Excellent food, drinks and service - great banter from the front desk too! Definitely coming back

We popped in without a reservation, although they were busy they found us a table without much waiting. It was lunchtime, so the wait might have been longer. Lovely menu, I opted for the steak with the chicken salt chips, what a really good decision that was. My other half had the risotto which did look good. The wine list was very good as well, plus there was a good selection of other drinks. We very much enjoyed our visit and will come back the next time we're in town.

I wanted to express, that my reveiw was removed, me and my partner went for a late valentine's dinner. The food was very poor, zero seasoning/ flavour to what looked quite nice on the plate. The food was really poor despite the good vibes and...

I visited Bali some time back and I absolutely fell in love with the city, the people, all the cafe and restaurants I came across, and Beach Milk reminded of just that! Although it was raining outside it felt like I was dining somewhere on...

The buzz about this place is completely unjustified. I’m Australian & for this to be held up as an example of the amazing food available in Australia/ Sydney / harbour beaches, is wholly disingenuous. The food was bland, uninspired & overpriced. My sardine starter &...

Food was nice, but service poor. At 11:45 on a saturday, all the staff queued up to get food from the kitchen and all sat down to eat, leaving 1 person on the floor. It made it impossible to get the bill and we were...

The variety of dishes served at this restaurant was amazing, the decor and service were fantastic too. As recommended we order six dishes to share between the two of us, and enjoyed all of them, especially the crudo, hispi cabbage and prawns. We also ordered...

The food was amazing! I had a great fish dish and my friend had a great piece of steak. Not to mention the server did a great job, he was somehow always there ready to help us. Finally the flan desert was amazing!

First visit for dinner. Welcoming staff Nice ambience Very good food, including super tasty mushroom risotto Reasonably priced. Very pleasant evening out.

Thank you for an amazing meal last night and fantastic, friendly service in such a beautiful chilled out place! The food was delicious and the Rose wine we had was really lovely. Special thanks for printing out my theatre tickets. We will definitely return next...

This is a new venue in the heart of Soho. Very close to all the usual amenities (theatres, pubs, clubs and London attractions. I was there for a while and had a lovely time. This place is perfect to dine before or after a fantastic...

This place is wonderfully well put together. They hit high notes on every level. We had a wonderful Saturday dinner here. The welcome was warm and smiley - and every single member of staff carried that through. We felt very well looked after by people...

We enjoyed a Tuesday night dinner for four at Milk Beach, Queen's Park. On the plus side: we weren't rushed, the small plates were tasty, the mains were nicely flavoured and not overly salted, and the atmosphere is cosy and fresh, even inside. Things I'd...

We had an amazing dinner at Milk beach. All our starters were fantastic and the Koji marinated chicken ‘Schnitty’ was everyone’s favourite. Highly recommend this restaurant! Lovely staff too

Milk Beach is a happy family Australian restaurant found on the outskirts of central London on Lonsdale Road. A major positive about this Australian diner is the employee’s happy, chirpy and bubbly hospitality not to mention when one observes closely how good certain waiters and...

I visited Milk Beach with a few friends on Saturday evening and I was so impressed. Tucked away from the busy roads, the ambience of this place is what sets the tone. I was greeted by a vivacious and so very attentive waitress called Aliyah...

I tried this place for the first time on Sunday and cannot recommend highly enough. Amazing food, really fresh produce, great atmosphere and great vibe. A true hidden gem in North West London. Service also excellent. Definitely my new fave brunch spot in town.

Went for dinner and the food,drinks, staff, vibe were all spot on. Even had live music and felt like we were on holiday. Ignore all the Karen comments below…this place is a hidden gem x

This place is overrated. Yes, it has a cool atmosphere and some vibe, but the quantity of food and prices don’t match. I had avocado on sourdough with feta and tomato. There was so little feta (4 small crumbs) that I asked for more. An...

Great front of house service and food highly recommended. Went above and beyond to make our family dinner special. Lovely vibe and great location

Rudest maitre de ever come across. Have tried to come twice - once with a booking and they gave our table away before the deadline - we were running a few minutes late due to a play finishing late. She was unwilling to help us...

Only in the city for one night so I didn’t want to waste the evening on somewhere average. This restaurant certainly didn’t disappoint. The food was lovely, the drinks choices were great (excellent reisling) and the service impeccable, friendly and fun. We had the tuna...

We came to Milk beach for a dinner and we had a really wonderful experience. The location is lovely, and the restaurant itself is romantic and really friendly ! Service was impeccable, thanks to Fernando our server who made our evening special. The menu had...

I’ve wanted to try out Milk Beach’s brunch for a while after my sister recommended it but as I usually stay quite loyal to my favourite spot in Notting Hill, I decided to venture to Queen’s Park this weekend and I was not disappointed! The...

Great little find. Very filled but lively atmosphere. Interesting menu. Starters better than mains but all good. Great friendly and attentive service. Happily revisit.

Loved the selection of flavours and interesting dishes at Milk beach. The decor is a bit simple and the chairs a tad hard, but the service was super friendly and we had a lovely evening with delicous food.

Sitting outside on a Friday evening, heat lamps working, we were able to enjoy a lovely meal. I started with the mussels (a main dish) and followed that by the 'schnitzy' chicken with perfectly cooked chips and a chimcurri mayo. Simply superb. Excellent team serving...

A small group of us were celebrating a friend’s birthday. We sat outside and were warm and cosy under the awnings and heaters. Great buzzy atmosphere on a Friday night and they were kind enough to turn down the music from the speaker near our...

Great place, great service, great vibe. The food was delicious! Highly recommend the dumplings and cocktails 🤩

Great little place with excellent food and service. Family outing on a lovely evening so we sat outside. One of those places where the taste explosion from the first mouthful of food tells you you’re in a great restaurant. We had a selection of starters...

The vibe, decor and atmosphere are super inviting; feels like a place where you can just relax and enjoy a beautiful meal and talk for hours (which we did!). The negroni was a thing of beauty. All of the food was really lovely - we...

Lovely staff. Great spot, but we couldn’t hear each other talk. Asked for music to be lowered twice, but it went up after 10 minutes! It was uncomfortably loud for a Saturday afternoon. Not very relaxing.

Booked for an evening out as a family and had a fabulous night. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Food was fantastic and very generous with the bubbly tasting. Six different wines that we hadn't had before and were explained very well by...

WTF! Absolutely sensational. The chef is a genius. How he can take seaweed, gnocchi, clams, pork belly and wild garlic to create a magic like that?? Unbelievably delicious.

Great place, great vibe, great food and great service! I have been there with 2 friends for brunch and I definitely recommend it.. I will definitely be back and try the live music nights..

This was our first visit - the atmosphere was great, the dishes were good in concept: BBQ pork rib dumplings, pho ga consommé, coriander, Pan fried seaweed gnocchi, clams, smoked pork belly with wild garlic and Grilled monkfish tail, monk’s beard, brown shrimps XO sauce....

So I had take away lunch in Milk Beach today and I can't help but feel that I got fleeced. Sorry Milk Beach! You're very cute (place) and I love having you in my neighbourhood but £12 for a tiny take away lunch bowl -...

The food was divine and the setting was lovely. I recommend the pork rib dumplings, so yummy! Staff were friendly and very attentive. Very reasonably priced for the quality of food and dining experience. My only criticism is the 1 hour 30 min reservation slots......

Just left Milk Beach after enjoying a wine tasting night with my boyfriend! Yay! Rabaka, the super hostess, gave us a cozy warm table under the heaters cus the weather is still a bit chilled, she also recommended us a few dishes to pair with...

Very high quality food is served there! The chefs are so talented and skillful ! We tried everything and I cannot say what was best ! The menu is quite small ( proof that they only select the best) the ingredients are quite original and...

Lovely food and service! We went after the recent re-opening and everything we had was delicious. Plenty of outdoor space with decent heating and umbrellas. Can't wait to go back.

Fantastic local restaurant, recently expanded. Just went for dinner and the decor, ambience, food, service, cocktails and wine were all superb.

Had a soft opening meal at Milk Beach and samples the new menu brought by the fabulous Aussie chef. Love the new, bigger restaurant, more room and the new offering is fabulous. Loved the squid ink linguini, the “snitty” and the Asian fusion jowl dish...

We had a family meal in the early evening. Every other table seemed to be couples. It was a surprisingly good meal with a really interesting selection of wines. They focus on interesting tasting plates. Because we were a party of seven, we were able...

Loved going to Milk Beach whilst I was visiting friends in London, so much so I went several times! The coffee is fantastic, I think the best in London. For brunch I had the coddled eggs in a jar with cream and sweet potato purées,...

We came there Sunday morning (before 10am - so it is not super crowded). Had a good coffee and good food. They serve oat milk and have some vegan options on the menu. The bowls are great, also the Avo toasts. Oh yes, the bread...

Love this place. It gets mad busy and over-run with kids at prime-time brunch time though so isn't great if you've not got a family! Best to go at a quiet time.

Thoroughly enjoyed an evening of wine tasting with Elliot and the crew at Milk Beach, each wine with a unique story and tasting notes. We also ordered a few yummy bites to keep our tummies full, the menu isn’t long but is perfect for accompanying...

Great place–brunch and small plates are awesome and the coffee and food is amongst the best I’ve had. Staff very friendly and attentive. I was staying nearby and went back 3 times over the course of my short stay in London.

This place has changed it's decor and theme about twice in the last several years. I go there every now and them when in the area but not so often now. Today I passed by and got a coffee. Tasted great!! and served it with...

A true slice of Aussie beachfront in London. Arrived here early as they were opening and could almost imagine the waves lapping at the door. No mean feat as I’d just walked from Kilburn High Road. Coffee was spot on and the yoghurt and granola...

Amazing food, fabulous coffee and super friendly staff. Had the coddled eggs with sweet potato puree - really original, delicious way to start the day. Highly recommended!

The hidden gem - absolutely beautiful location. The brunch is outstanding, as my favourite would be Coddled Eggs in a jar with cream, and sweet potato purée served with sourdough soldiers, full of flavours and delicious! Coffee is just spot on, the staff is so...

We found this place our last day in London, Loved the sour toast with avocado & goat cheese, fresh oj and capuccino and I was a happy camper. I recommend it for sure if you are in the area.

They do a great coffee and the service is excellent. Friendly staff and very nice sitting outside on a sunny day.

Great coffee and fabulous service. I also had a croissant, it was very fresh, crispy and flakey (melt in the mouth).

Nice local brunch/coffee place close to Queen’s Park. Relaxed atmosphere and friendly service. Eggs benedict were excellent as was the banana bread. Take your time for slow food and enjoy this cute little find.

This is my first visit in the cafe, went there for lunch with my sons and loved it. I am currently Gluten and dairy free which is very boring but I had a lovely salad. I highly recommend paying them a visit if you are...

Now back in Australia, after a trip to UK and still dreaming of the incredibly delicious poke bowl. I could eat that every day. Coffee was amongst the best I've tasted. Well done Milk Beach, you have a winning formula. Beautiful fresh decor, excellent, friendly...

My wife, parents and I visited the Milk Beach on a rainy morning for brunch. The place looks great, nice and bright. The owner and staff is really friendly and the food is excellent. Some original creative dishes that were made perfect. The combination of...

Had a lovely visit to Milk Beach today, great to see it busy but we didn't wait long for a table. Beautiful coffee and well presented, tasty plates, with friendly staff. I love the interior - clean, relaxed, pretty. Will definitely visit again with friends...

Good atmosphere. Good brunch, with some innovative and savoury plates. Missed the 5th star because we had to wait so long for the food, and the drinks were cold when food finally arrived.

Tried Milk Beach today, the place was buzzing with a great atmosphere! They do a great avo brunch with perfectly cooked poached eggs and at last, a place that understands what is really good coffee!! Highly recommended!

Really cool venue with style & substance. Had an unusual dish of a poached egg served in a jar with sweet potato purée with a side of toasted soldiers. It was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. My friend had smashed avocado on toast which was...

Busy little cafe with a mix of sharing tables and individual ones. Coffee was excellent - finally a cafe that makes a decent flat white. Eggs Benedict were yum too. Will be returning

This is a beautiful cafe, serving amazing food and coffee. I've had eggs benedict and also the sweet potato with egg and soldiers, and both were superb. Nice vibe in a nice street. Would highly recommend.
