The Drop in Camden - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

A covenient spot for drinks prior to our show at Lightroom. Popular venue. Nice outdoor seating area. Good to see that the mineral water - still and sparkling - is complimentary. Downside: outdoor seating is a little uncomfortable. Probably not good for a prolonged visit.

The bar itself is lovely. The service was not great, my friend had to queue for ages to get served when she did order we waited for 30 minutes and not even our drinks had arrived, when she asked they had forgotten, which is understandable, it was busy. But the worst part is we ordered a cheese board. This took over 45 minutes to come out we paid nearly £16 and were excited. Unfortunately, it was extremely disappointing. There were no more than 6 pieces of cheese and 6 slithers of bread, not worth the wait at all, even if we didn't have to wait it was sad. Wouldn't recommend this place, one of the staff members was also cursing constantly and shouting.

We enjoyed both the Braised rib and the confit pork sandwiches. The only downside is that both of our sandwiches had a bit too much fat. Excellent place to eat if raining and you want to dine outdoors. Very good customer service, order at bar and your food/beverages are brought to your table.

Ordered a bite to eat after a couple of drinks then told in no uncertain way to move table as “there was a booking”. Had to move to a poor inside table - booking clearly friends of the bar manager who was rude and had zero customer skills. Other staff were nice but he really let the place down.

Visited on a hot Saturday afternoon for drinks and a bite to eat. The whole experience was let down by the shockingly bad service from the staff. One individual in particular, who appeared to be in charge, was extremely rude. We’d been sat at our table for over an hour, had a few drinks each, only to be told by this person that the tables had been pre booked, and needed to be vacated within the next two minutes. There were no signs out to indicate that they had been pre booked and instead of apologizing he told us that we had to move straight away. We’d ordered food and explained that and he just flicked his hand towards empty tables inside and told us to go and sit in there then. Our food was late, I had to ask about my partners lunch and it appeared that they’d forgotten. The pre booked guests turned out to be the staff members friends, and I strongly don’t believe that any pre booking of any kind had been made. Absolutely would not recommend and would respectfully suggest that the owners consider their front of house arrangements to avoid losing customers.

Food was good but portions were unequal a table next to us ordered the same but received a plate that was more substantial then ours. Service was poor at best we were seated then forgotten about. We were only served as one of the staff walked past and casually asked if we were okay. The main server then didn’t come near our table for the next 45 minutes. Inside we could see staff members on a laptop chatting. Would not go back had lots of potential but let down by inconsistencies and lack of attention.

Perfect spot in Coal Drops Yard for post-work drinks! The team were super friendly and gave great wine recommendations

What a lovely little spot to have come across. Really approachable and knowledgable staff and a nice wine list.

What a lovely neighbourhood wine bar. Brilliant wine and delicious food with a very friendly team. I recommend more highly

Such a great spot for a glass of wine and a snack. Team were all super friendly and the oysters were delicious!

Rude staff and poor service. I booked a small area for my birthday end of January. The staff seemed disinterested overall. The area was secluded and there was very hot air blasting. My guests were feeling uncomfortable including a pregnant woman so we opened the door to allow cool air in. One of the staff (young female Italian, with coloured streaks in her hair) kept closing the door so we explained we are very hot one guest is pregnant and needs cools air . She was was incredibly rude and aggressive and said to the whole group ‘I am trying to eat my lunch and it’s cold’ . I was shocked by her response and the unprofessionalism. A huge part of enjoying wine is a comfortable environment and friendly staff. I would never recommend this establishment.

I found the Drop last week and will be 100% returning! Has such a lovely evening. The food is great, fantastic selection of wine and really amazing friendly knowledgeable staff (Particularly neeve who looked as us all night) Highly recommend!

Very nice ambiance spoiled by service. We ordered a glass of wine and a mulled wine, we were seated at a table inside, the wine arrived first, I was told the mulled wine wasn’t ready, ten minutes later the mulled wine arrived and to my horror it was served in a large paper coffee cup which was a quarter filled if that. If we had ordered the mulled wine to take away then I would of understood. Not value for money and very underwhelming.

Lekker rustig genieten van een lekkere wijnen met daarbij goede kleine gerechte om te delen. We werden bediend door goed en vriendelijk personeel

Nous avons passé un super moment à Londres au DROP, super ambiance, super serveuses ! Je recommande les yeux fermés ! Les planches apéritif sont incroyables ! Merci à Btul and Almu

My favourite place to get a drink in Kings Cross. Love the ever changing wine list and cheeseboard offerings.

Booked for Sunday evening 6.30pm to see friends. Haphazard service and informed after 10 mins we had to make last order for food before friends had even arrived. Was good but had to ask multiple times to get enough cutlery and plates for all of us. Lights out on the dot of 8pm and staff couldn’t wait to kick us out from 5 mins before. Will not go back.

I just saw three dreadful reviews for this place and I don't understand it. The wine is really interesting… Maybe you have to be into wine like I am… There are very well chosen exciting wines that I've never even heard of. Served by people who like to drink them. I had one little snack and it was delicious… Look this isn't a glass of plonk and an old bit of camembert… It's aiming a little higher on the palate that It's a cool place with a brick arched interior and enthusiastic staff who know what they are talking about. it is not all bar one... and if you want that you going to give it one star… But it's a very superior cool intelligent wine bar

Unimpressed - Over priced, and poor service, wouldn’t go back at all £7.25 for a very small milled wine!

My friend and I visited The Drop yesterday evening at 8pm for drinks and snacks prior to a meal booked in The Drop’s sister restaurant, Parrilan. We ordered a bottle of wine, some cold meats and the warm baguettes shown on the menu. The waiter...

One star is one too many. We booked and on arrival were told the kitchens were closed.( they had an email so maybe they could have warned us??) We arranged ( ourselves) to eat in restaurant next door and they said we could have a...

Fantastic service from friendly, helpful and efficient waiting staff. Wonderful atmosphere and a lovely selection of food and drink. Perfect way to spend a couple of hours for early evening drinks and food. Thanks so much everyone at The Drop.

Supposed to be a full bar but just a couple of beer choices and neither on draft. Great location, but need to up there bar choices. On line review when bill issued seems very strange too ?!?!?

So loud we could not even hear each other. Service was atrocious, with slow and very forgetful staff. And the price for the nibbles is extornionate!

The service was terrible. Based on my experience I would strongly advise anyone looking for a wine bar to go elsewhere.

We organised my mums 60th at the drop and it was fantastic. We hired out a small space for a little get together of 20 people. The small dishes were perfect for grazing, whilst trying the amazing wine selection. I would highly recommend going here,...

We went here for my mum’s 60th. We were a big group, outside under the heaters. The staff took great care of us, nothing was too much trouble. Nice food and the wine kept coming. Was a great choice.

Opted to sit outside at The Drop, Coals Yard as the heaters provided enough warmth this time of year. The Drop offers a fairly pleasant atmosphere – I deduced it is primarily a wine bar but does offer bottle beers, food and more too. We...

Once again had an amazing evening at the drop. Fantastic food and wine and great service from our waitress . Will definitely be returning soon

Coal drops yard recently developed and expanding was a local upmarket shopping centre. We chanced upon this place for a mid afternoon 'brunch'? Ideally situated with a wide variety of cold meats and fantastic oysters...look forward to returning!

We hired the whole venue out for a private event and it was fabulous; the vibe, staff and delicious food. Would highly recommend.

Just called in to have a drink on the way to Barrafina and ended up staying (sorry Barrafina), enjoying a bottle of wine and some delicious food. We’ll be back soon and can’t wait to explore more of the menu. I’d recommend the purple sprouting...

Felt very let down after going to the drop for a drink. I love wine and try to go to specialist wine bars as generally the staff are very passionate and knowledgeable about the wine - this wasn’t the case here. We paid £40 for...

Visited Saturday evening. This is located in the lovely Coal Drop Yard, under the iconic Samsung place. Sat outside undercover, and although December was nice and warm due to the heaters. The music from the next door Mexican was very load and not great. We...

Beautiful small wine bar in the wonderful Coal Drop development at Kings Cross. Petit and warmly designed in an old brick arch. Warm friendly and casual with welcoming staff team. Called by for a quick relaxing lunch. A lovely wine selection by glass, carafe or...

Nice ambience & busy. Service good but wine list ridiculously expensive for the quality of wine. Food also pricey. I don't like restaurants that add 12% service charge for simply serving a drink. Not for me.

Stopped here for drinks recently, very expensive- bottle of White wine £36!! Didn’t eat, but menu looked good

popped in last night with 4 friends (Couples) (45/55 age ranges) for drinks. We were warmly greeted by Lena who looked after us all night. The venue was clean and seating roomy. Would highly recommend.
