The Loch & The Tyne in City of London, Westminster

We arrived to a beautiful roaring fire and gorgeous decoration. The waitress who was fantastic all night seated us and then noting a better table in front of the fire asked if we would like that one instead which we were really grateful for. We had the beef tartare and crab curry starter both were just gorgeous followed by the mac and cheese - OMG if you love cheese then this is a must - I sat in a happy place through every mouthful. My wife had fish and chips which was the best ever. Gorgeous decor, fabulous service and exceptional food - we will be back!!!!

We were looking forward to our dinner, not having been here before. We wanted to start with a glass of Prosecco but it is not served here and the only option for a glass of sparkling started at £19 per glass. Our main dishes of mac n cheese and burger were nothing special. The service was disappointing e.g a wait for the chips to be served with the burger, we had to ask for our wine to be served and long wait for desserts. One of the male staff members came across as quite arrogant and his manner felt uncomfortable. We won’t be returning.

Food good. Service poor and let this place down. For a busy Friday night they didn’t have enough staff working. They had run out of a few spirits and cocktails and it was only early. The staff didn’t check back to make sure our food was okay. Our table wasn’t cleaned between courses and we had to wait ages for our bill. Unfortunately this place doesn’t live up to Adam Handling’s name which is such a shame.

A disappointing experience overall compared to when we last dined here about three years ago. After 10 minutes from being shown to our table we had to try and attract a servers attention to ask for a cocktail/drinks menu and water. We then had another long wait before he returned for our order. My husband and I chose a cocktail each. Then another long wait before the waiter returned to tell me that my cocktail was no longer available (their set cocktail menu is pretty limited anyway). So I asked if they could make me a negroni instead. This arrived in less than 10 minutes, but my husband's menu cocktail still hadn't appeared! We questioned this and he went off to the bar again to check and returned to apologise that they didn't have the ingredients for his cocktail either! so he gave up and ordered a beer. So after about 40 minutes we both finally had our first drink. The place was busy for a Tuesday night but the staff just didn't seem to notice waiting tables. The starters were interesting and main courses were reasonable (no sides are included with the steaks). I didn't want the onion rings that it came with it. We didn't want to wait for a dessert as we weren't enjoying our experience. The restaurant felt cold and lacks soft furnishings. I'd asked for my scarf to be returned so I could wear it around my neck and shoulders. I noticed that other diners had kept their jackets and coats on too. We won't be rushing back.

This is quite a tricky one. The venue is very nice and the staff were generally excellent although we felt they needed one or two more of them as the wait times were excessive. We actually asked for our bill whilst our empty dessert plates were on our table, and had been for some time as we seemed to be ignored. The food we had was very good, I particularly enjoyed my chicken main. The alcohol seemed very expensive even by high end restaurant standards, and this place does describe itself as a pub. For £160 for 2, only including one alcoholic drink I would have expected better but we still had a largely enjoyable evening.

We were visiting the area to attend the PGA Golf and decided to book this restaurant for the Saturday night. We have been before so was really looking forward to it. The food, atmosphere and the staff are fabulous and they can't do enough for you. All of our meals were beautiful with all the food being beautifully presented. This restaurant could teach Tom Kerridge a thing or two. The night before we visited Hand and Flowers at a cost of £1400 for 6 people (need to read mine and others reviews) for overpriced average pub grub. Would highly recommend visiting here. Would definitely return.

Had a great Sunday meal with family. You HAVE to try the cheese donuts, and the burrata is excellent. The beef wellington was also amazing, as were the millionaire potatoes, along with the side dishes. Great portion sizes, exceptional quality and even asked if we wanted more sides! Service was, in the main, friendly and efficient, but rated 4 rather than 5 star due to two issues; no doom bar, ran out of aperol and didn't have the English Rose cocktail (need to sort out bar inventory please!) and husband ordered pork belly but was served beef wellington, when said he ordered pork, was very rudely informed "No, you said Beef wellington"! Could've dealt with that situation better, as he definitely ordered the beef :-)

Had an amazing dining experience, beautiful cuisine with creative and stunning food and beautiful wine. Great front of house and table side service which made a lunch time treat extra special, bravo L&T

Absolutely fantastic and i definitely recommend! Staff were great, the food was delicious and personally though it was good value for the money.

we had a party of 13 in the private dining room to celebrate our 80th birthday . The service , food and wine was outstanding and very good value for money .

A disappointing experience-the place had come highly recommended,but we found it ordinary and the food uninspiring.Our evening was also spoilt by a very loud "gentleman" on the next table, whose conversation could doubtless be heard throughout the restaurant.We will not return

We had a lovely evening at this beautiful restaurant. The staff are all very friendly & attentive. We ordered from the set menu. To start my daughter had the soup & I had the burrata, for our main course I chose the chicken & my daughter had beef wellington. The food was excellent, everything was just perfect. We ordered some cocktails that were different but tasted fab. There’s a relaxing, chilled out vibe about the place which was really nice. Would also like to say a special thank you to Lyle for making us feel welcome & looking after us.

Beautiful pub with character in Old Windsor. Adam Handlings stamp on the menu with signature classic offerings such as the amazing chicken butter and cheese donuts! We ate as a family group and had the set menu which I recommend. The courses were tasty and well presented. Also offered a nice children’s menu

Food is good. Slightly overpriced but good nonetheless. However that would have been made up for by service, which unfortunately was lacking. Food was slow to come out. About 30 minutes for starters, then 45 minutes before mains. And if you aren’t going to bottles on the tables, you need to be really focussed on keeping tables topped up. Repeatedly having to look around for a tip up, at the price level, is crazy.

Very busy restaurant on a Wednesday evening, but for good reason. The staff were excellent, the atmosphere was buzzing and the food was very good. My only criticism with the food is that the dishes we ate all had too many sauces or other added extras. However, I would happily eat there again, but would request slight modifications on what I ordered.

After a couple of attempts to get a table, I got l lucky, a top table on the terrace in the early summer sunshine. Service was attentive and swift. Food was 1st class - a good range of starters and we all focused on the Sunday roast range (there are additional options). Beef Wellington was excellent however the portion size was just about passable at about 1cm thick. The negroni was out go this world! Will v. happily return.

It was my sons birthday and we were staying at a hotel down the road as we were going to Legoland the next day but I really wanted to eat here but had left it too late as it was full when I tried to book a few days prior. On the way to the hotel from London during the day time we actually passed the Loch & Tyne in the car enroute to the hotel so I popped my head in to see if they could do anything to fit us in for an early doors dinner that evening. It was a Saturday so I din't fancy my chances however the Manager Josh pulled it out of the bag and managed to squeeze us in. I don't think that the space was the issue it was more the case that so much work and effort goes into each dish that the chefs need the time to work meticulously on each dish so it is important not to over book the restaurant out and put pressure on the kitchen. I must say we tried many dishes and as you will see in my pictures each dish was beautifully presented and tasted as good as it looked. The staff advised us on which dishes to go for and were so friendly. It was our sons birthday and they even brought him out a birthday cake and candle and our waiter Lyle was very accommodating too. Josh made our night fun and was entertaining our son playing hide & seek with his marvel characters, we had great fun. We shared the tarte tatin for dessert between two which was divine. I would say that this is a special occasion type eatery and is not cheap. As we were driving we didn't take a bottle of wine but asked for a couple of glasses and they were extremely costly. However the food and service was top notch and this is reflected accordingly. If I lived in the area I would most certainly come here regularly for those special occasions! Keep up the great work!

Good menu choices, interesting food combinations. Set lunch very good value for money. My meal was spoilt by an unfortunate accident of having water spilt all over me by our waiter sitting in a wet dress not the most pleasant of experiences, which detracted from the meal.

I’ve been waiting a while to get round to eating here as it’s only 10 minutes from home. I went with my niece for lunch. She had Mother and chicken with asparagus with wild garlic. She enjoyed hers, although she said she couldn’t taste the wild garlic but the chicken gravy was excellent. I was less impressed with my food. Beef tartare was very pretty but came with so many bits and pieces mixed into it, I couldn’t taste the beef, which for me is the whole point of it. I followed with whole plaice. It was ok. The sauce was delicious, although the clams listed on the menu were barely there and, again, there was so much other stuff, it was difficult to taste the fish. 2 types of caviar, 2 or 3 types of sea veg overpowered the whole dish. Neither of us drink alcohol so we had non alcohol mixes. Very good. Service was great. Efficient, friendly, unobtrusive. Probably won’t go back

We had an exceptional lunch today. The food was some of the best we had eaten, original food full of flavour, beautifully presented. Josh the Manager looked after us so well, giving great guidance on the wines. We could not recommend this more highly and much look forward to returning very soon.

This our third time at this restaurant, this time with friends so I had high expectations. The food as usual was delicious and of high standard, however our young waitress was a little too familiar and didn’t strike the balance between being professional whilst being friendly and efficient. We did feel that the waitress was looking to upsell at every opportunity, failing to inform us that the hash brown’s with truffle would attract an extra surcharge of £5 each. The pace of the courses coming out of the kitchen made the whole experience feel rushed and the establishment wanting to turn the table. At the end of the meal we decided to have another glass of red wine, this time allowing the waitress to choose something based on our individual preference, however she didn’t confirm the price of the wine prior to pouring a glass. It was only when she showed us the bottle that we finally found out the price. We were shocked that our friend would be charged £49 for a glass of Margaux. Had we known the price upfront we could have avoided an unsavoury end to our night. Fortunately the management handled the situation well and resolved to our satisfaction. I do agree with other reviews that the mark up on wine is too high.

We had a fantastic evening at the Loch and tbe Tyne. The food was outstanding - my favourites were the cheese donuts and onion tart starter. The pork main and venison burger were excelllent too. Delicious puddings also. We loved the atmosphere - relaxed and calm with the perfect level of service. We were celebrating family birthdays - it was a perfect evening. Thank you to the Loch and the Tyne team.

Excellent lunch for my daughter's birthday. Efficient and solicitous staff, prompt service and really good quality food, especially venison burger, mac and cheese, trifle and unique cheese doughnuts. Not that cheap but good value for money and I would most definitely return.

Booked for a Friday lunch. Nice touch that front table we’re aware of our travel plans from the booking email (it’s the little things that count). Lovely lunch at a very reasonable price. Would definitely return when next in the area.

Sunday Lunch - good in parts The food was good - not special The staff were very good The wine - I can buy at £13.95 was £54 a bottle - ridiculous

Sensational food and great service. The menu was a delight! Try the chicken bread and butter amazing taste! My fish. Chips and mushy peas was fabulous, the portion on the big side, but who’s complaining. We have also been to The Frog and, for a more casual, lower price option the Loch & Tyne did not disappoint. Excellent

High end pub lunch. 8 of us ate in a private room upstairs which was very nice, as the pub downstairs was very busy and quite noisy. Expensive Sunday lunch £175 per couple ( inc 2 bottles of wine only). But good food of a high standard, as you would expect. Had the beef wellington, and some would argue that should be more beef, and less surround, and not enough 'crust', but that may be just our taste. Wine list was certainly not standard and different. Service very good from out dedicated waitress. May return, but would consider before, as it was expensive.

This is a lovely local pub with delicious food and a very cosy and inviting atmosphere. It was quiet when we went so the staff were not busy. They were very friendly and attentive. The food was really tasty and great value for money.

Friends 60th birthday celebrations! Had the tasting menu with wine flights. Everything was outstanding! Lovely private dining room and great service. Highlights: the cheese doughnuts, the chicken butter and sourdough bread. Adam Handling’s signature dish “Mother” is an incredible dish and not to be missed. This was definitely one of the best meals out I’ve ever had and we will definitely return.

Adored our visit here. Warm and inviting atmosphere with excellent service. The waitresses we had were very knowledgeable and helpful. Food was amazing. Fresh flavours put together with imagination to create delicious dishes. Highlights were the cheese doughnuts and a great rib eye steak with...

Poor service, apathetic staff and disappointing, overcooked food pretty much sums up our experience. This was supposed to be a birthday present for a friend and we all left shocked and disappointed with how inattentive the staff were - we had to ask a few...

Booked Sunday lunch for my husband’s birthday, and it was fantastic. Great menu, value for money and food was delicious. Our waitress provided attentive service and was really helpful. Will definitely come back soon to try their tasting menu

The food is good but the portions are small. Wagu beef was not great. Service was very slow. £42 for below average white/red is just ripping people off. Won’t be returning any time soon.

amazing service, imaginative and delicious food, brilliant people. catering for our family perfectly. bravo, and thanks for a brilliant Saturday lunch. we’ll be back for sure!

We are all great fans of Adam Handling and have been here several times now as we live locally. The food is truely fantastic - original and great flavours and this Sunday lunch was no exception. The service too is exemplory - Grace looked after...

Firstly, the pub is beautiful, spotlessly clean and modern, but still warm and welcoming. It has a relaxed atmosphere, although you get the feeling that this will be special. Everyone knows their role and they do it well. We didn't feel rushed in between courses...

We were looking forward to a meal here and traveled especially. Disappointed! Over-rated. Cooking by numbers rather than Masterchef. We believed that most of our dishes had been prepared in advance and taken off the production line. Exception was the Duck, probably the only dish...

We booked a few weeks in advance and went for a celebratory Sunday lunch. The food was absolutely delicious: the beef Wellington roast was very tasty and a decent-sized portion, and the half roast chicken was nice and moist. Loved the accompanying veg and Yorkshire...

We were drawn to this place for the tasting menu. It did not disappoint! We both said it was the best meal we had had in a long time. Was dubious about the ‘Mother’ dish but this probably ended up being my favourite - such...

2nd visit but sorely disappointed. Horrendously loud, tables too close for comfort, sat next to table of four one individual who took their shoes off! Vile and offensive conversation. Waiter literally serving the same table only seemed interested in serving them. Spoilt what should Have...

Disappointing time at this restaurant, with the service seriously letting this venue down. Visited with friends one evening, when it was only 6pm. Upon booking, we were told we have the table until 8.30pm which is no problem at all and plenty of time. We...
