The Game Bird in City of London, Westminster

My friends and I had afternoon tea to celebrate our 30th birthdays. Every single item was delicious and the staff were incredibly attentive throughout..the actual restaurant is set within the beautiful Stafford hotel. We really felt like we had properly treated ourselves . Thank you for a 5 star experience.

We had not eaten at the Game Bird for about 8 years but have visited the American Bar several times for drinks and nibbles since. We cannot praise enough the quality of the whole experience and most importantly the food which was absolutely delicious. We have already booked to return next week. Congratulations to everyone who is involved with this amazing restaurant.

We had a nice afternoon tea. The service was impeccable and nothing was too much to ask for. The ambience was great and we would definitely do it again.

I simply cannot fault the restaurant! The Brioche bun was enough to win me over, but every element of our Sunday roast dinner was the best I've ever had. This was accompanied by friendly service. The meal isn't cheap, but it couldn't be with this much care and attention. It was my first visit, but I'm already planning to return.

We had a lovely relaxed Sunday lunch with friends. The food. Location, prices and particularly the staff were great. Our waiting staff and sommelier were very friendly, attentive and super helpful with food and wine choices - the perfect place for Sunday lunch!

We spent nearly £500 and were rushed from the table as soon as we paid. We were asked if we wanted coffee & we agreed and within 5 minutes of the coffee arriving we were told the table was needed. We were not allowed to wait for one of our party to return to the table. They had our coats ready and we had to wait in the foyer by the door. They had no consideration for us despite knowing we were unhappy. Very rude end to the evening. A special pre Christmas treat. Disappointed- I would expect more for the cost of the meal.

It was just brilliant, as always; the cooking was sublime, the wine (a Falenghina) fabulous, the service impeccable, plus the American bar serves the best Manhattan cocktail in London. What else is there to say? Oh yes; please can you persuade the chef to put the best fish soup ever back on the menu?

Had afternoon tea with the family and it was great. The place is beautifully decorated, and the food was absolutely delicious. The service was top notch. Really nothing to complain about Highly recommended

Molto riservato all’interno di un boutique hotel altrettanto bello. Menù abbastanza vario con alcune tipicità inglesi. Salmone eccezionale. Il personale è in prevalenza Italiano e sono ragazzi fantastici. All’ottimo cibo abbiamo accompagnato le loro storie. Ristorante fortemente inglese, ma con la cortesia che solo noi sappiamo offrire. Unico limite il prezzo molto alto, ma per una sera speciale merita.

Un bel endroit même d'exception je dirais . Seul bémol a rajouter serai sûrement le forcing des serveurs a la consommation .

We so enjoyed our Sunday roast dinner here at The Stafford. The room was beautiful, the service was exquisite and the food was the best we have ever tasted. Thank you so much for our amazing experience here.

We had won a 3 course dinner for two here in a charity auction . Its not somewhere we would normally go, though having tried it we might come here for a very special occasion. On arrival we were handed s called " reduced a la carte menu"., however there were three choices for each course and we found things we liked. The food was good and we had a free bottle of wine, and they did not charge us for extra vegetables, fizzy water or coffee. Meanwhile people at the next table paying the full whack were having champagne and caviar. One of us had CORONATION CHICKEN WING M a n g o, C u r r y, A l m o n d as the starter and the other had GARDEN PEA SOUP Tunworth Croquette, Onion & Chive. Both were delicious - th croquette was a small cheese pastry and the soup was freshly poured from a tiny jug. Our next courses were FREE-RANGE CHICKEN KYIV Truffle Butter, Potato Purée and CHALK STREAM TROUT Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Basil, Champagne Sauce. Again we really enjoyed the food and also had sides of broccoli and asparagus . For dessert one of us had MADAGASCAN VANILLA MOUSSE B r i ti s h R a s p b er r y, Sweet Pa s tr y and the other crepes suzette which did not disappoint they were cooked in front of us with all the ingredients described as they wenr in, with a 3 foot high flame at one point!. Both delcious. We washed it down with a house white recommended by the sommelier . we enjoyed being pampered.

Each and every savoury and sweet item served was so excellently made! We were especially impressed with the chocolate work involved with making the sweets (eg the chocolate cigar, or the chocolate shoe horn). Tea was of exceptional quality and a lovely wide selection to choose from. Ambience/setting was lush and beautiful, and very comfortable. Most of all, service provided throughout our meal was top-notch. Very befitting of the Stafford hotel name. Ms Maria who looked after us was warm, thoughtful and attentive. She also demonstrated a detailed understanding of each of the items on the menu and was able to give detailed recommendations. Definitely would come back :)

This afternoon tea was booked for 5 of us on my daughters 21st birthday May 6th. We arrived to a beautiful table and a lovely waiter, but sadly the food was disappointing, the sandwiches were salmon and cucumber, ham and mustard and cream cheese and cucumber sadly only my husband likes mustard and my other daughter hates salmon and cucumber as well, which left her with no sandwiches, we weren’t asked what sandwiches we liked, also the cakes were ok but when we took our left overs away, we weren’t even given any jam or cream for our scones, so they got thrown away as they were so dry. My hubby was offered another pot of tea but this never arrived, and my pot of tea went cold and I wanted another but no one bothered to ask until much later, so my poor hubby never got his second pot of tea. I wouldn’t go here again for the money we paid I think the overall experience and the food was sadly lacking. We went to the Ritz for my 50th and that was so much better food wise and service.

This was our first visit to this restaurant for a Sunday lunch. The ambiance was very pleasant, we didn’t feel rushed and felt looked after. The food was tasty and beautifully presented. For us it was one of the best Sunday lunches i had in London.

Wow this place is so beautiful and classy. My husband had JUST flown in from JFK, this was our first meal in London and I’m so glad it was at The Game Bird. Our waiter was friendly and the food was equal parts comforting, warm and elegant. It was just the soothing balm my husband needed coming off a red-eye.

An absolute disgrace! This place had a tiny menu at huge prices. Service was sloppy and the wine waiter was close to insulting. Oysters Rocketfeller bore no resemblance to the great dish. £34 bought you four small tasteless crab tortellini. This is totally unacceptable. I...

Situated within the Stafford Hotel, the Game Bird has friendly, welcoming staff and the ambience is most definitely up there. The food is very tasty, however is extremely expensive. The drinks are also extortionate, particularly the wine. I opted for a beef tartare and the...

We had a table "on the stage", a small semi-private room that was very quiet, even once another couple joined. The food was outstanding, from the cocktails through to dessert. Service was prompt, friendly, and proper, without being stuffy. It wasn't cheap, but compared to...

The food and ambience was fabulous, just before Christmas and beautifully decorated. However the initial service was VERY slow to get a drink order, then took at least 15 minutes to get our cocktails. l I noticed people on table next to us, who arrived...

Located in the boutique Stafford Hotel, this is worth seeking out for a special occasion. The dining room is intimate and the staff attentive. It is not cheap and the wine list can be challenging but the food quality was excellent. Try the pigeon pie...

A modern tastefully designed combined bar and diner in this five star hotel. All very well done and to the highest standard. Cocktails overpriced at £21, steaks overpriced. Wine list good with fair mark ups for the style of place. 40 minute wait until we...

Thank you all so much, that was truly an experience, rather than just a dinner. Impeccable service, fantastic food, very knowledgeable sommelier, going above and beyond.
