Disappointing experience. We used to be regulars here, but on our last visit quite a few months ago, we ordered pâté and asked for additional bread, as restaurants typically provide more upon request as you usually only get a few slices to start with. To our surprise, we were charged £4 for an extra few small half slices of not great bread. When we expressed our surprise at this meanness, the waitress agreed to remove the charge but warned that in the future, this would be standard practice. Really? Management should take a look at Authentique down the road, another small independent French establishment, where they not only serve generous portions of some of the most delicious bread I've ever tasted with their cheese and charcuterie platters, but also offer complimentary bread refills on request. That’s what good customer service looks like, and is definitely standard in most restaurants of all sizes all over the world when ordering pâté, which can only be eaten with bread. This felt very mean-spirited. I don't expect bread as a standard with all meals as no one does that in London, but when you order pâté you expect to be able to get enough bread to finish the meal without having to pay a surcharge

Excellent experience. The bar with bunk seating is nice and cozy but you need to book early to secure a seat in the candle-lit main room. Some outside seating when it's warm. Simple choice menu, some daily specials. Three of us chose seperate starters and mains but shared for the experience. Recommend deep fried dauphinois, or the burratina. The salmon tartar at the next table looked delicious. The mains were delcious; my wide loved the duck confit, my swordfish steak had a delicious sauce, and my daughter's onglet was perfect. Fries on the side were 10/10, but the dauphinois were better than excellent. We were full after two courses but the chocolate mousse looked out of this world and I'd go back just to try it. House wine starts at £28, and a good selection of cocktails. Nice, friendly people, cozy warm atmosphere, romantic. We loved it and will return.

Absolutely lovely evening - delicious food, great service and I love the interior of the former butcher shop.

Nice atmosphere and the food was great! However I told them I had an allergy to crustaceans, and there were crabs in the dish I ordered, which I discovered only after I had started eating. The waitress said she was sorry and offered to replace my dish with something else. I asked for dessert instead as I don't eat meat and couldn't eat anything else on the menu, but in the end she changed it to 50% off my dish ("because you ate half of it") and charged for the dessert as well. Kind of an odd sense of hospitality when I could have ended up in the hospital. Other reviews have noted the weird penny pinching at times. Not a big deal, but I personally won't go back.

This place looked really promising - we visited during happy hour (4-6pm) and it was completely empty. Nice bar, very dimly lit and quaint. The server greeted us and told us that they had been closed between 4-5pm (which doesn’t make sense if happy hour is 4-6pm.) Cocktails were great and half price, and we got a sharing plate. Service was good. It was 5:55pm and we asked the server if she could accommodate us for 4 more drinks (2 rounds) as part of happy hour. She gave us the oddest response saying “you cant have multiple rounds at once, but I will let you have another happy hour round” So we were under the assumption that because it was almost end of the happy hour, that she had been generous and let us get another round with the deal. At the end when we received the bill, she had not honored her word about an extra happy hour round and charged full price for the last round. We tried to ask why we had been promised another round but the server did not uphold her word. Shame because overall good experience, but kind of disappointing

While the restaurant itself is cozy, the food disappointed me a bit. I had prawns as a starter and found the portion size quite small for the price, the taste was a bit bitter for my liking. My main was a stew of mushrooms which was nice. On the whole the food was decent, but it's quite pricy for what you get. I have better experiences in other French restaurants, which is why I score this experience a 3/5.

Really gorgeous French restaurant in Kentish. The atmosphere feels relaxed chic and tables are spaced nicely. Service attentive and friendly. Drinks Wine selection is good, cocktails very good (we had aperol spritz & the sour epicé, a Mezcal sour, which I thoroughly recommended. Food Between four we shared the deep fried dauphinois (divine), baked st. Michelin, and then shared the sides with our mains of green beans in garlic, braised red cabbage & two frites portions (one with aoli, one with garlic butter). All the mains were divine, the duck was cooked to perfection and the mushroom ragout was incredibly flavoured. The steak was also excellent and served to our liking. While portions are on the smaller side - and it would be nice that the meals came with a sauce as quite dry otherwise - they do not skimp on the desserts. You'll be hard pressed to find as comforting a rhubarb crumble as you will here, & the creme brulée had a satisfying snap & excellent flavour. For a filling and delicious taste of France, you really can't go wrong here.

Atmosphere great and interior so nice but food not special or even good - we had to send back two dishes and didn't finish one because it just wasn't pleasant to eat and the kitchen were not gracious or even curious about wanting to know why we didn't want to eat it, just said "that's the way it's cooked - if you want us to remake the dish for you it will taste the same". Woof. Don't get the pardon peppers, they are crunchy and not cooked properly, and the green beans didn't come with sliced garlic (as stated on the menu - the response from the kitchen was "it's cooked in garlic oil" - probably should update the menu then) and were also pretty raw. Kitchen said they were meant to be Al dente which is fair enough but I've never had a french bean taste like it's been yanked out of the ground then popped in a pan for ten seconds. Also big disappointment from a French place is that the French onion soup was so weak! Not a nice flavour, very pale and thin and oily - couldn't finish it. Potato gratin tasted nice enough (the bare minimum you would expect in a French place) but weirdly came swimming in a plate of cream. Tasted fine but was the only edible thing out of the £30 worth of food I ordered. Such a shame as this would have been somewhere we would have come back to again and again but the attitude from the kitchen and poor food was not the one. Great place for a date though if you are just having drinks, very romantic lovely atmosphere and service good.

Really poor...from start to finish. A French restaurant without bread to start! We ordered at 7.40, meal arrived at least an hour later...cold except for one dish (sizzling trout which was great) so my guess is they forgot us. Called the waiter to ask where our food was, he informed us that the fish was slow cooked so was holding up the meal...clearly untrue, a slow cooked trout is a new one on me. The worst bit was the leek gratin...the portion was laughable, even for a starter it would be minute...cost £15 for half a leek and a bit of Dijon mustard. The steaks were overcooked and cold...not the medium rare requested. Near the end of the meal a waitress came over with a portion of terrine starter saying that the chef had accidently made one and would we like it!!! Accidentally made a piece of pate with chopped cornichon??? Again my guess is that the chef realised the leek gratin was not complete and tried to compensate. If you make so many cock ups, have overpriced inferior food with little choice you should not be in business.

We were very much hoping to enjoy Patron a neighbourhood restaurant serving traditional French food though came away underwhelmed. What can I say. Our starters were good, the mains average at best and whilst the ambience was a + it just felt a lack of something - as if hey we are busy and doing okay so do we need to try any harder. The menu and overall impression reminded us of Absinthe a now departed French restaurant in Primrose Hill. I get the idea and enjoy traditional French food and may be that is what we expect though on our recent visit to Nice we encountered new restaurants and styles of cooking which is way ahead of our experience here. If you are in the area and fancy a plat with a glass of wine I do not wish to put anyone off going though I think the Cote chain is just as good with more choice. The damage c£72 a head though this included a few drinks and a decent Chinon.

We popped in before a show at Kentish Town Forum, then realized we were running out of time, so had to ask staff if we could get our main course as soon as possible. I realize the kind of strain this kind of request puts on a small kitchen so a) sorry and b) thank you so much for being so gracious about it, and serving our main courses so quickly after we asked. You really went above and beyond for us, so we really appreciate it. And the food itself was truly brilliant. It was honestly the best duck confit I've had - the sauce was epic - and my wife said the same about her cod. We'll definitely be back. Amazing food, amazing service. Thanks again!

I love this restaurant. The service is excellent. The food is very nice. I’d choose the duck confit, rather than the steak. I think the latter is a little watery, so I wouldn’t order it again, but I think that everything else about this place means it’ll be a regular go to for me. Went again - absolutely loved the food - had the terrine, the duck, the rabbit, the dauphinois, the beens. Then the creme brûlée. All delicious and excellent service.

We went for Sunday lunch at the newly extended Patron, in Kentish Town, they had only just started doing Sunday roasts. Wow! what a gastronomic delight, there was a choice of Chicken, Beef, or as I chose, the pork chop. The chop was succulent, surrounded by roasted sweet parsnips and carrots. The roasties are to die for, golden crisp little bad boys, endless gravy and massive Yorkshire puddings on request. We’ll be back next Sunday.

The Sunday roast is absolutely incredible. The duck fat potatoes are perfect, lashings of gravy, a vegetable medley that is a dish on its own really special. The meat is high end and full of flavour. It’s a real special celebratory roast, this is not your standard roast. This is an event.

This was our third time in this restaurant. The food is authentic not flashy but is obviously prepared with care and know how. It is a fine example of good brasserie style French food which is actually hard to come by. It is not pretentious the atmosphere is fun and transports you to a little establishment in a back street in Paris. The cocktails are delicious the bar-tender really knows how to deliver a delicious Margarita and the wine selection great. The menu is limited and my feeling is it could have had a few more fresher/salad like offerings (particularly through the summer months) the peach salad with goat cheese was OK but the peaches weren't sweet or juicy enough to complement the sharp saltiness of the cheese. I love the duck confit in here and the fish bouillabaisse is DELICIOUS! Sadly this visit was the last night of the old menu which meant that there was limited availability on dishes. This was a shame as we had taken friends to show it off. That aside, what we did have was much enjoyed by everyone and the atmosphere was vibrant and fun.

Lovely restaurant with a very authentic French atmosphere. Ordered a selection of small plates that were all delicious (the fried dauphinoise is a must), accompanied with a bottle of Rose. The best part about the evening however was our waiter Gabriel - who I believe was also the manager. He was incredibly friendly and attentive, and made the experience outstanding and memorable. Will definitely be returning!

Popped in at 5pm on a Monday to see if they could fit me in, and they were very welcoming. I started with a St Germain cocktail, which was delicious, and, incidentally, half price, being before 6pm. For dinner, I ordered the Onglet Steak, rare, and I have to say it was cooked to perfection, for my taste. It wasn't sliced in the usual french manner, which I think helped retain the heat. It was delicious, with plenty of herbed butter melting away beautifully on top, with a hint of charred garlic. I had the dauphinoise potatoes as a side. They were sliced so finely, with a lovely creamy sauce. Also, green beans which appeared to have been pan sauted. I have to say, everything was top knotch, and it was thoroughly enjoyable. I will definitely be back, and I highly recommend trying it.

Delicious and authentic French cuisine, with excellent service and a nice atmosphere. They are renovating the adjacent space to double in size soon.

Fantastic. All the food here was great and the chocolate mousse to share was a great way to end off the night in a fun manner.

Interesting and well prepared bistro staples. Confit duck always reliable - although the pommes which came with it could have been browner/crisper. Excellent haricots verts, and a good (but minimal) winter salad with thinly sliced pears, some cheese, endive and a hit of heat from chorizo. Surprisingly good Lillet and red wine - although the Potion d'amour came with a surprise kick of Tabasco. Enthusiastic (but slightly uninformed) service..

Excellent and authentic food with enough atmosphere for the pre-theatre crowd (which included us). My partner was snapped at for trying to enter the restaurant 10 mins before official opening (the door was open). The red wine choice was unconvincing by the glass - white wine selection by the glass much better. Worth a try if you like French cuisine, though it is a little mixed with no real regional bias, so some French people might not like that and find it a little less authentic. Every single dish we had was great, however, and even the gluten free bread at the beginning was tasty. Recommended.

This bakery is outstanding. The chocolate pistachio escargot was fantastic. The daily special was a fig walnut square (see picture) and it was absolutely phenomenal. The latte was good. The mushroom garlic emental (escargot?) was great as well. The neighborhood of Fitzrovia was great to walk through. The staff were fine, but could be a bit friendlier, I didn’t get a welcoming, service-oriented vibe from any of them.

I was walking around the center and then suddenly found myself in this little yet quiet and adorable street full of little shops and restaurants. Needless to say that as soon as I saw this little gem of a wine house, I fell in love with it; a bit rustic and cosy, lovely wines at a great price (especially for being central London), friendly and efficient service. Cannot wait to try the brunch next Saturday!
