The 10 Cases in Camden

Great wine list, great service. 👌🏻 Would recommend!

We enjoyed a very leisurely and tasty pre theatre lunch at 10 cases. Aperitifs and some delicious nibbles to share followed by monkfish for 2 plus other choices from friends. Everyone enjoyed their meal and we all appreciated the friendly services. Would definitely take other friends along to share the enjoyment not to mention the location.

Amazing experience on this “French” bistro in London. Carefully selected wines from various worldly’s famous producers, not only Europeans. The food options also bring good surprises. The atmosphere is lovely and the service is efficient and courteous. Memorable.

The steak is a must try! There was only a little problem with the serving. The fries arrived hot but the meat was cold.

Wine for under £15 per glass is not that great at all, average only. Cheese board was basic, you can find better cheese in a store. Service is okay but after visiting bars they are not very generous. We just came back from Paris and had amazing wine experiences there so we might have come with a high standard in mind.

A wonderful little place. Food and wine excellent

We stumbled across this great bistro letlagged and without a reservation. They were kind enough to seat us at the bar. The décor and sidewalk seating gave it a French café feel in the heart of London. 10 Cases is small, but boasts an impressive wine selection, with rotating wine and dinner offerings. The duck rillettes with cornichons were good, as was the pork terrine maison. Our main courses were Venison with carrot puree and roasted parsnips, and a great steak frites with peppercorn sauce. The service was great, and we we’re hurried.

Fantastic wine selection - must go!!

We ordered some wine, almonds and bread. While the wine was good, the bread was hard and inedible.

Perfect wine bar in London. Dan the bar manager and wine buyer made our visit exceptional. We ordered a 1984 PEter LAuer Sekt. At first, we called the wine corked and sent it back. About 15 min later, Dan arrived and asked how our visit was going. We notified him that we sadly had to send back the LAuer. He then tasted the wine and indicated he felt differently. We discussed and retried the wine. At this point what we all thought was cork taint had blown off and the wine was drinking perfectly. Kudos to Dan for trying to salvage an amazing wine we all thought was done. Additionally, the food was amazing as were the other bottles of Champagne we had that afternoon. This place is a must visit. We cannot wait to return.

We went here on two successive evenings (be sure to make a reservation!), and both were wonderful experiences. Friendly staff, imaginative chef, well-curated wine list, great people watching, yet intimate. We were well treated.

This is a super place for people watching and having excellent small plates of food. The dishes are good quality and the service is very professional and discreet allowing conversation to flow. So what are the not so good bits... it's popular and so it is very full and the tables are a little close (but still comfortable). It's a little pricey but that is central London so spend and enjoy (make sure you order the salmon in oil, it's super) I will return

My go to spot for a glass of wine in London. Never had a bag glass. Amazing value for money and each wine is really interesting. Excellent service from folk who really look after you in a quietly lovely way.

Quoting my partner: This was the most uncomfortable birthday dinner of my life. We had to sit in an incredibly tight corner, so tight I could not move a leg or I would kick my partner sitting in front of me. We also had a shaky table, so we had to carefully measure every movement to be sure no glassware was falling on the floor. We left before dessert because we would have probably not been able to get out of the chairs with a full belly. Very VERY cold service with zero smiles or empathy - also failing with basic things like asking for the steak preference, so it arrived blue. And we’re not talking about a cheap place here! Ah, the wine was good - not that we ever saw the bottles. Very disappointed.

We had a really good experience with our waitress/ sommelier Emilie. She was excellent with recommendations, not too pushy but also gave some good suggestions. We loved all the wines she offered us. The food was great! The saltiness of the duck rillette and the flavourfulness of the chicken supreme. Really tasty with amazing presentation as well. We shall be back!

Very nice address. The staff is very friendly and gives very good advice. I will definitely return there on my next trip to London!

Had a pre theatre early dinner so it was quiet when we arrived but it soon filled up. Had lots of little sharing plates which was the perfect amount of food. Wine was also delicious

Lovely atmosphere, great service, steak was delicious. Highly recommend

By far the best 🍗chicken i had in a very long time!! The chicken supreme was so , so tasty , i was very impressed and the sauce underneath was salty and great!! The french waiter was very friendly, fast and friendly. I asked her something about the wine and she was very happy to help. I would gladly recommend this place and I can’t wait to go back !

We were greeted immediately and had a lovely dinner. My husband is a wine guy and enjoyed speaking with Emilie and another team mate from the larger menu. We were tourist from the USA. I had read a great review of 10 Cases in The New York Times. The restaurant lived up to the review

Quality of food and wine is good but tourists should be careful for a high service charge above the average. They put 20% service charge as a default even they didn’t provide or ask any other options I could take. And also they put a cover charge for each person. Recommend to take a close look at your bill before your payment.

Went to this wine bar twice, despite the wine being good, the service could be better. On late weekend evening, my friend and I ordered a bottle of wine to share. We wanted to move from the table near the door entrance towards another table to sit more comfortably on chairs instead of stools when the place emptied out gradually. The waiter only offered the table at the corner at the entrance to the washrooms downstairs where there was clearly an empty 4 person table (we asked to move to the 4 person table but was refused). Later two customers came in and were offered the sit on the 4 person table. I can’t seem to wonder why there is a hint of unfair treatment.

Excellent location. Trout is amazing. Fries are tasty. Service is class.

We visited early evening prior to dinner at Parsons fish restuarant which is diagonally opposite and has same owners. Very knowledgeable staff who will help you with your wine selection. Lovely ambience and lots of wine choice. Highly recommended.

Have been few times for dinner and lunch. Food is good. But the hostess/waitress attitude isn't acceptable. This last time were late and tried to contact the restaurant several times and no answer. When arrived I mentioned that I was late and if it would be possible to still have dinner, they say yes and pointed from the distance where was the table, when sitting on the table that I understood was mine, she came and shouted at us saying No! that's not the table for you because you arrived late! and moved me to the next table, I was shocked and embarrassed to be treated like that in front of other customers. In my eyes the tables were exactly the same didnt understand why the hate, and im happy to sit wherever is ok for the restaurant but if you aren't clear where exactly and just point out to one direction where is two empty tables don't treat me like that. If I was late I assure you it wasn't to make you angry, and if its fully booked for next customers you could've say no sorry and I would pay my penalty through Sevenrooms. But don't treat customers like you are doing us a favour, and don't take it personal if a costumer is late.

Loved it. Food only got 4 as choice was limited but quality was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed my evening and the staff were great.

There were so many different types of wine, so after thinking about it for a while, I ordered a glass of wine and it was really delicious. He said he was sorry that the food came out a little late and gave us jamon and bread. Next time I go to London again, I want to go and try other dishes. The atmosphere was nice and I think we left behind happy memories.

We have the private room downstairs and it was excellent.

Lovely wine bar, great service wines and delicious food

One of my absolute favourite local restaurants- never fails to deliver. Great food, lovely wine and brilliant service.

Wonderful traditional French bistro. Service superb.

Had the loveliest anniversary lunch here. Beautiful restaurant and absolutely delicious food including the veggie options. I’ve been coming here for years and it never misses

Incredibly kind, helpful staff & delicious wine!! 💜

Brilliant wine (without a ridiculous markup). Tasty food. Fun staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Good times. Need I say more?

This is a great spot in Covent Garden. We were warmly welcomed and the 2 staff were very friendly and helpful. It was a Saturday at 1pm, and we were surprised to be the only customers, but it soon became quite busy. The starters were lovely, especially the gougères and the ham terrine. The main courses weren't quite so good: my pork collar wasn't tender (as I'd been promised) and my companion's fish wasn't quite cooked, but it wasn't serious enough to complain as the wine bar was now quite busy, and the staff jad been so pleasant. What I didn't like was that the 2 serving staff laughed about me and mocked me within earshot, albeit round a corner by the bar and out of sight. I felt humiliated and stupid for having asked for an English Breakfast tea to finish the meal. Please remember that there are customers who speak and understand French.

So glad a friend brought me here for dinner delicious food delicious wine and a new favourite spot in town

The servers could have been more professional regarding the wine knowledge and manners. We ordered one of each expensive wine and champagne, and the waiter had to google the wine information for us. After we ordered wine first, we wanted to order some food; the waiter seemed quite unpleasant and stared at me, complaining: “Can we have one moment?’ He rolled his eyes and came back with a very serious tone after three seconds. Maybe this restaurant needs more staff, but this experience was not ideal. Especially when he asked how good their food and experiences were to other customers but not for our table. The staff was utterly silent when we left (I am Asian). If you are looking for a place with good service and food, maybe this is not the first choice.

Fun, buzzy restaurant in Covent Garden. Wonderful menu, could have eaten everything but went with Steak Frites and was not disappointed! Great place to meet up with friends. Excellent and attentive service, will definitely be back.

We’ve been to 10 Cases several times. This Tuesday evening we popped in for a quick meal before going to the Ballet. Dining room was empty with the exception of the two servers working that night. This was in the wine bar section. The welcome was lack lustre. And we ordered the Pork Collar. Server told us that it’ll take 20 minutes plus. Not a problem. Our wine arrived. Here are our issues… both servers were talking over our table and heads. One standing on the left. The other on the right. As if we were not there. Since order will take 20 minute plus… server should have asked if we wanted a bread basket. Instead… we had to ask. Their attitude was too casual to the point of being disinterested. I asked …” how is the Pork Collar?” He replied…” What do you mean?” Both servers didn’t bother to enquire about our meal or ask if we needed more wine. They clearly were not interested in the customers. Nor their jobs. A restaurant with this pricing should train staff better. Fortunately the Pork Collar was ok but platted in a rather small dish resembling a soup bowl! It’s pretty clear if we should visit again!

What a gem. Fantastic staff and wonderful atmosphere. Beautifully cooked food from an interesting menu. Such a relaxing place to be with a great buzz. We'll be back.

One of my favourite restaurants in London, unique experience every time

Walked past this, thought it looked nice so I kept a mental note to visit one day. Glad I did, great cosy little wine bar with good prices and good wines. Very happy and will definitely return.

Such a lovely place. Extensive wine list by the glass as well, not just bottle, which is not as common. Didn’t try any of the food but the wine I had was great and the place was warm and ambient.

Such a warm welcoming bar. Brilliant service and delicious food and wine. Great wine recommendations and relaxed cozy atmosphere. One of my favourites in London!

Will happily return here for food and their fantastic selection of wines. Been coming here for years. The staff are really friendly and attentive. Glad that everything is still as amazing as always! Keep it up!

BAG STOLEN - I went to the wine bar with a friend and we were seated on a small table by the door. I was sat closest to the door and without our table being left unattended the whole evening, with me or my friend present at the table whilst one of us went to the bathroom, my small handbag was stolen from below my feet. Before being sat down, I had placed my belongings in one of the compartments of the furniture (bureau by the door holding menus), but was shortly asked to remove my items and instead find a place for them by my feet. Big mistake, this restaurant has a problem with stealing, like most of Covent Garden. Waiters told me they know the recurring offenders by face. Therefore, they should have assisted me by providing the CCTV footage, putting up a warning sign for guests seated close to the door, and finally by providing adequate space for belongings so that they are not strung across the floor under the table by your feet.

We drank interesting bottles of wine and eat simple food, while being well looked after in a great atmosphere, the concept works well do be prepared to drink out side your comfort zone, price is very sensible considering its location a stones throw from Covent garden

Lovely warm ambience and cozy atmosphere. Excellent bistro style food and interesting wines. Very friendly but slightly rushed staff apologised for delays in the kitchen which was appreciated.

Lovely bright, small restaurant/wine bar conveniently located in Covent Garden. From our initial warm and genuinely friendly welcome, service was excellent throughout lunch. Very good menu, especially interesting starters. Not sure the cote du boeuf is worth the £75 for two sharing size wise, but it was tender and flavoursome, with delicious buttery and smooth garlic mash and a fine mushroom and tarragon sauce to accompany it. Our partners both enjoyed their lamb rump. The meal was completed with a well executed and not too sweet, treacle tart. Look out for the specials board which wasn’t pointed out to us. On this occasion it didn’t matter, but we would have liked to have seen the extra option.

Excellent meal, great service, thanks to Sophie for her hard work

Good wine, ok atmosphere, avoid for a meal

Classic and friendly wine bar, nice vibe

Great wines of value at all price points, especially near the top. Food is surprisingly good even for a bistro, let alone a wine bar. This is better than noble rot.

Great spot for lunch with a good selection of wine and great food! The service was excellent and will definitely be going back

2 nights in a row food fab , wine vast Our host the first night a delightful gentleman named Jeremy. Great knowledge and Witt.

Love this place! Amazing food and very friendly staff

Great ever changing wine list. A real hidden gem just round the corner from Covent Garden in Theatreland

Met here for some wine before food elsewhere. Lovely place.

Had an incredibly delicious meal here. Really friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Lovely wine. I highly recommend.

If you are hankering for some tasty steak frites in central London, this little bistro is the place to be. The wine list is also interesting , and draws from all over the world. On the downside, it can get pretty crammed even on weeknights.

Friendly and attentive Australian waitress. Good bottle of wine. Food only OK and, although I love salt, cabbage and leeks far too salty. Anchovies (4!!) and toast were majorly over priced. Best thing we had were the chips. Cured turbot was chewy - much too thick. For £130 inc it wasn’t value for money.

Firstly, great service. Also,very good wine. I have had this restaurant on my "to go"list for ages. Sadly, I was disappointed by the food. Some good dishes: I enjoyed the artichoke and also the chips. The anchovies and toast were really good, but overpriced. The Ham Hock seemed a little too cold, and underseasoned. The cabbage and leeks were too salty, and I love salt. To repeat: the service was great.

Cosy wine bar with a fabulous selection of wines. Service is great and they offer good recommendations.

Returning to 10 Cases is like meeting up with an old friend and remembering just how much you treasure them. All the basics are right - fabulous wine list, plenty of good choices by the glass. The bread is wonderful, delicious salty butter, friendly, knowledgeable service. At a recent lunch we had a pork chop with mustard sauce and roast potatoes to share. Perfect in every way. The kitchen is closed for refurbishment at the moment but you can still drop by for top quality cheese and charcuterie boards. If you want something hot, they'll send over to Baudry & Greene next door for a croque monsieur or similar. Because nothing is too much trouble. A neighbourhood gem in the middle of Covent Garden.

I recently had my birthday party in the private room and had a wonderful time. The staff were fantastic, the food was excellent and the room was perfect for our group of 14. I cannot thank them enough for making the evening so special.

Great restaurant with absolute ambiance and the steak is fabulous, I recommend this place

This intimate bistro and wine bar, tucked away in the heart of Covent Garden, exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere that instantly charms. The cosy setting creates the perfect backdrop for a memorable evening. The service at 10 Cases was good and genuinely friendly, adding a personal touch to the experience. The selection of wines is noteworthy, offering a diverse range that caters to every palate. What truly elevated our visit was the addition of delectable snacks. We opted to share a basket of bread and butter, turning a delightful evening into an exceptional one. The simplicity and quality of the bread, paired with the friendly ambience and excellent wine, created a perfect symphony of flavours. Whether you're a wine connoisseur or simply seeking a cozy spot to unwind, this bistrot deserves every one of its five stars. Highly recommended!

Seriously lovely place! Really delicious food and wine and very kind and knowledgable staff.

Amazing bistro, reminding me of the best ones in Paris. The owners are hands on, Abbey is a star! Delicious and soulful food with outstanding wine list!

Probably the best wine restaurant in London. Wines are exceptional. But also the food is on point. Exactly what you expect from a real wine Bistrot. Staff is also top notch. Cool and super friendly. Great little sunny terrace as well which is rare in London.

I went to the bar/shop part of this establishment. The wine list is one that would be difficult to beat. Such an array of wines it may look overwhelming, but pick any of them, and you won't be disappointed. I only ordered the padron peppers, but the rosemary salt, instead of the regular sea salt, was an addition I will be taking home. The head chef, Richard Hards, is at the top of his game, so I can't wait to return and sample the restaurant side of this covent garden gem.

I came here with a friend, and I must say the service was appalling. Our waiter was very rude. I ordered a coke because I do not drink alcohol and he was visibly annoyed at that. Then my friend arrived, and I was going to order another one but he said you have to order a glass of wine. Of course his tone wasn’t serious, he was joking, but it was still very bold for a waiter to say. Some of us don’t drink alcohol, be it for religious reasons or others. We were there for about 3 hours, our bill came to about £20. After a while, the waiter came by and shoved the card machine on the table, expecting us to pay. We said we wanted to calculate the split so he walked off in a huff and then came back a while later and we paid. He was obviously annoyed that we were ignoring his not-so-subtle attempts for us to leave. A while later he came back in a huff and said, ‘Girls if you want to stay here you need to order a glass of wine, you’ve been here for ages’. I said to him we’ve already spent money here and I kid you not he said, ‘you’ve spent £20 that’s nothing, the business isn’t going to survive on that’. What kind of business are you running here where a waiter is allowed to make such a stupid comment like that? Did he think that he could ‘shame’ us into spending money there? I would completely understand if there was someone outside waiting for our table but there wasn’t. We were costing this establishment nothing just by sitting there, nobody was waiting to come in a spend any more money. If your business is failing the onus is hardly on the customer to pay more, perhaps you should consider how to get more customers in the door or you should look to the service you’re providing. This waiter was such a bully and had aggressive vibes from the moment we arrived. We promptly left, there’s no reason for us to spend more of our money on such a place. Avoid this establishment.

Sitio estilo bistro francés, muy del gusto de los londinenses. Como corresponde, carta relativamente corta, centrada en platos de cocina francesa (entre ellos el (recomendable) steak frites que tomamos dos de nosotros). El servicio es discreto y eficiente. Tienen muchos vinos en botella (es la especialidad del lugar), y unos cuantos por copas, a precios al nivel típico en Londres. Aparte del steak, el roasted venison con braised pearl barley nos deja muy buena impresión

We came in on a busy Saturday night and had the best service from an Australian lady working there. By far the best wine bar in the area!!

Went for a lunch with a client; we were moved into the wine bar next door and we were the only ones in there - the waiter was amazing, he was friendly and engaged but also gave us space to chat, when we went to order he already had written it down. The food was delicious including vegan food, and one small error was swiftly and apologetically fixed. Wine was thoughtfully recommended and very tasty. A great meal and a very happy client.

Due bistecche davvero buone con patte fritte. Buona scelta di vini e dolci

Absolutely always awesome. Service second to none.

A perfect wine bar with excellent cheeses

I’m currently enjoying my time at this quaint wine bar/bistro on Endell Street in London, and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite places in the city. The attention to detail here is evident in everything they do - from the food they serve to the impeccable service. It’s a small, intimate spot, not overrun by tourists, and thankfully, there’s no need for month-ahead reservations. The menu offers a delightful selection of English and European dishes, each perfectly complementing their excellent range of wines. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between relaxed and sophisticated, creating a truly inviting atmosphere. Tonight, I had the pleasure of trying the venison from their dinner menu, and it was spectacular. Every dish here seems carefully crafted to enhance the wine-tasting experience. And for dessert, I chose the cheese selection - an exquisite array of all English cheeses that was simply divine. The staff here are attentive and knowledgeable, adding significantly to the overall wonderful experience.

Went for drinks and dinner. The food was good but the venison was underwhelming. But the fish was so delicious I’m sure it’s more a matter of personal preference here. Service was impeccable, and we appreciate they went to a very loud table to ask them to be more quiet. It’s a very tiny space so it gets very noisy and crowded. On the expensive side but would come back still and try the duck which was out of stock!

I will never step foot in this restaurant again. It was a full house tonight with multiple 4 tops all having a nice time. We were 4 women who came for a nice dinner and to catch up over a bottle of wine, no one was drunk and certainly none of us were boisterous. The waitress (short blonde hair in a small bun) came over to us twice telling us to keep the noise level down. This was absolutely outrageous considering the volume in the small restaurant and the fact that we were speaking to one another in very civilised tones. She then threatened to remove us from the restaurant for using poor language. The table next to us couldn’t believe that we had been spoken to. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!

A lovely French bistrot, never going wrong with the cheese & meat platter or the steak & frites, wine list is changing but always delivering!

This is probably the best place that I have ever been to have a great wine! The atmosphere was stunning and the customer service outstanding. Also the only place that you can stay long without being kicked out because of closing times. Absolutely loved it. Didn’t have any food but for sure will have next time.

This place is fantastic - been a few times now. Amazing wine, food and service! Great ambiance as well! Highly recommend

Really nice setting. Large range of wines. Bit pricey but that's normal for central London these days.

Great wine bar with very tasty food options (tapas style) and good wine variety! Def book your table because walk ins can be tricky

It’s cool. Nice concept. Drank a lovely bottle of assyrikto. I wish they had more wines by the glass available. But apparently they had some written on a board?

Small and cosy wine bar with amazing selection of wines and very helpful staff. Make sure you book ahead!

Sad to be writing this review as my last experience at 10 cases (the restaurant) couldn’t have been better. We went to the bar next door last night and were presented with two very rude and pretentious waiters who seemingly had an attitude with us the whole night. One was in fact so rude that he drove us out of the bar after refusing to let us wait for our third party before ordering a second glass. Maybe they were having a bad day but to save yourself the risk please instead go to the restaurant and sit by the counter. The lovely bar staff will give you a great experience.

Creative excellent wine list. Staff very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Food cooked to perfection. Nothing to fault

Fantastic wine. Fantastic food. Although it is expensive... A very lovely experience in Covent Garden. Would recommend a visit.

Such a lovely little gem in Covent Garden!✨ This place has a cosy and intimate atmosphere, perfect for a romantic night out or a catch up with friends. The food is absolutely delicious and the wine list is very impressive! You'll definitely want to add this spot to your must-try list. Just a heads up, the tables are small so be ready for an intimate experience. Ps. Order the hake and don’t think twice about it 🥰🤞🏻

Lovely wine bar with a good selection. Pity about the extremely rude wait staff who basically told us to get out if we weren't planning to order another round (which we had been, but promptly decided to leave when this happened). We hadn't even been sitting with empty glasses either which made this even more uncomfortable. I really did not enjoy this experience, especially when paying premium prices.

Busy and lively, amazing peppercorn steak frites

An Endell Street institution. Stood the test of time. Always punches above its weight. Sensational wine list. Food - recently enjoyed - even better than usual.

Not a lot of choices on the menu and the service could be better.

Ordered a GB Burlotto Barolo “Coravin” by the glass, it tasted like it has been opened for a few days, no palate, most of the alcohol has evaporated. I saw the bottle and half of the cork was exposed — interesting way to do coravin. Asked the waiter and he says “this is classic Barolo”. I said I had tried this vintage in the same shop 2 weeks ago and it did not taste like this, he shrugged and pretty much ignored me. I asked another waitress about this and she said the same: “every bottle is different”. She tried the same bottle by removing the cork and putting it back — so not coravin then. At least she offered to refund the glass, which I appreciated, but I didn’t take anyway. At the end, I expected much more from a “wine bar”. It’s unacceptable that I was served a glass of Barolo coloured water. I come here because it looked like these guys knew what they are doing. I expected them to own up to an expired bottle, instead of trying to pull wool over my eyes. Well, truth be told, I would have happily come back for more, as I really enjoyed the last few times I was here. But after being treated like an idiot that should know that Nebbiolo tastes like water, I will never come back again.

Lovely spot for a glass of wine. Great selection and reasonably priced. Service was top notch, and sitting outside on a good evening was lovely. Will be back!

The food is very good. The menu is concise, mains include meat, fish and vegetarian, so something for everybody. Excellent service and great choice of wines. Lovely atmosphere. Would recommend.

We just stayed for a drink. We loved the atmosphere, the sparkling water and basket of bread included in the sitting charge set aside our glasses of wine. We'll be back.
