The Marquis Cornwallis in Camden

Not very friendly. Went in for a drink at 10.30 on Saturday night. Stood at the bar for 5 minutes. Was ignored by 3 members of staff, so left...

Am not really sure why this place is busy/popular?? Prices are high, food (if served) is so mediocre. I was led by reviews but will not return or recommend. There are many better in this neighborhood.

We were a large group of 20, who were easily accommodated and well looked after. I had asked the group to pre-order which worked well and the food came out in good time and everyone was able to eat together. The staff were very helpful and communicated well on the day. The food was delicious and the service excellent.

Sunday lunch , great atmosphere, good beer excellent food. The people working here are polite and helpful, the beer is well kept and a good choice, we went for Sunday lunch .. no wonder it’s always busy as the food is excellent ! There is a good choice on the menu too

I visited the Marquis Cornwallis last night 19/09/2024, I paid for a round of drinks with A £50 pound note, I was given £25 pounds change, a £20 and a £5, I did not notice that the £20 was an old note, but when I tried to pay for my next round, I was told they don't accept the old notes, despite the fact that they had given me the old £20 note, I explained this to a manager, but they would not accept the £20 note, absolutely outrageous!!! Will never visit that pub again, shocking behaviour, If you are visiting the MC please be aware and check the change you get from staff!

Abbiamo cenato in tre, due adulti ed una bambina, in questo carinissimo pub con grandi aspettative che sono state parzialmente deluse. La pulizia dei tavoli lascia un po' a desiderare mentre il personale è stato, sempre, cordiale e professionale. Abbiamo ordinato una ceasar salad con parmigiano grattugiato, una bistecca con chips e del formaggio di capra alla piastra: tutto buono tranne la bistecca, tiepida tendente al freddo, e la chips, crude; ho chiesto mi venissero sostituite e sono tornate nella stessa condizione. Abbiamo poi ordinato una ottima cheese cake per un conto totale di 85 sterline, eccessivo per i nostri standard qualitativi ma normale per quelli londinesi.

The food and the atmosphere were excellent. The staff attentive and could not do enough for us especially assisting with some gluten free options, especially Susan who went above and beyond to insure we a great afternoon!

Excellent choice for a classic English Pub experience. We ordered the Sunday Roast for two. They allow substitutions and were very accomodating. Best Yorkshire pudding and gravy !

Had the eggs benedict which were amazing. Went in mid afternoon, place was quite but wait staff were very aware I was there and were straight over (Charlie was my server). Coffee was also very nice. Would highly recommend.

Don’t bother. Between the horrendous noise, (they did end up turning it down after I asked) and the woeful nachos - actually corn chips with melted cheese and the staff playing around who seemed to have nothing to do. All in all a complete waste of time and money.

The food was ok, the atmosphere ok, the service not so great. The restaurant has a good vibe despite our experience and was busy with locals, visitors and is well located.

Très bon endroit, bonne ambiance, un grand choix de bières, personnel souriant et serviable. Proximité avec notre hôtel.

I came here with a large group and they were very accommodating. The server was lovely and made the experience very enjoyable.

Great venue. Food was good. Excellent service. Menu suited our needs and the bar was great. We had a large table in the middle of the venue. It was extremely loud due to the amount of people in there - it was also a day England were playing on TV - but it did not spoil the experence for any members of our party, all of whom had positive things to say. Not pretentious at all. Good all round pub.

I didn’t find the interior very inviting, the service was basic at best, and the food was very disappointing. We ordered the nachos (fried nacho chips) and I got a beef pie with mash. Barely any meat in that pie, mash not particularly tasty and a disappointing cabbage and leek mix. I would not recommend.

I came in here for drinks on 2 of my 4 day trip to The Smoke to visit relations and friends. I really liked the vibe early evening Wednesday it was like the "after work" brigade but real nice mixture! Then I visited Friday mid afternoon as in need of a livener after a 7 mile treck! Quieter but good and my American friends visiting also liked! Nice pint of Tim Taylor Landlord which I woof down here in Staffs. Great pub, friendly staff and now added to my list when back in couple months!!

Há uma grande e variada seleção de cervejas nas torneiras. Em questão de comida, pedimos uma porção de calamari e um schnitzel de frango, ambos muito bons. O ambiente é bem movimentado e está sempre cheio. O serviço foi ótimo, os atendentes foram todos muito prestativos. Enfim, um ótimo pub para experimentar comidas e cervejas inglesas!

Un pub chaleureux et accueillant, avec une belle carte de tapas et de très bonnes bières. Possibilité de commander à la table avec un QR code ce qui est pratique, néanmoins ils demandent de payer directement en demandant si on met un pourboire, ce qui est délicat de dire non vu que c'est commun en Angleterre, et en même temps on nous demande ça avant d'avoir eu quoi que ce soit à table. Cela reste néanmoins un très bon endroit.

After a day of sightseeing at the National Gallery, we headed back towards Holborn and wanted to have some great pub food. The Marquis Cornwallis had good reviews so we dropped in without a booking. It was very busy downstairs, however, staff were welcoming and showed us upstairs, where there were spare tables. We ordered the sausages and mash, which came with chilli-flavoured onion rings. The portions were generous and we were too full to fit in dessert. Great atmosphere and reasonable pricing.

Fish and Chips, ein Klassiker. Meine Portion wurde noch mal in die Küche gebracht, weil die Bezahlung noch nicht abgeschafft war. Entsprechend kalt kam es dann an den Tisch. Kann man machen, ist halt irgendwie ungastlich. Essen ansonsten eben durchschnittlich.

Excelente comida, camareros muy simpáticos, local amplio, bonito y cómodo. Recomendable para probar platos típicos del país.

Nous avions réservé à l’avance pour y aller en famille et le restaurant nous a annulé 5 minutes avant l’horaire réservé et ont refusé de nous servir

Booked a Christmas meal here for 30 people. Couldnt fault the communication, service or food. There was a slight glitch with the bill but that was sorted efficiently. My thanks go to all the staff. We would go again.

Esperienza da dimenticare, avrei voluto mettere 0 stelle ma non si può. Avevo prenotato un tavolo dalle 20 alle 22.30 per mangiare e bere. Una volta arrivati ci siamo seduti e abbiamo ordinato dal telefono, senza aver avuto nessuna spiegazione su come ordinare, peccato che ci hanno detto dopo quasi un'ora che l'ordine non era partito e che ormai la cucina era chiusa alle 20.30. Ce ne siamo dovuti andare perché l'unica cosa che ci potevano portare la birra e delle noccioline SENZA FARCI MANGIARE

the waitstaff was so kind and helpful for dealing with us! we were a large party and they were very helpful!

Relaxing laid back bar. Had breakfast/brunch there Saturday 11th tasty , well presented and reasonable price for central London. Special thanks to staff especially Charlie for great friendly service. Will definitely eat and drink here again when in London

Great food, great service, great bartending! Highly recommend. Nice athmosphere. Nice price! Funny waiter :) Go for SUNDAY roast!

To be avoided like the plague. Fish and chips were horrible. Staff rude. Beer on tap not as advertised on tap

Good points Friendly staff and very clean Bad points on kids sausage mash they put spicy onions on it and then gave our 3 year old apple juice in tall glass as didnt sell even a fruit shoot Smell of cannabis from people sat at tables outside Expensive for what you get

Get the schnitzel! Also, get reservations, by 5:30 you are out of luck!! A very good pub, good staff, good food and plenty of things on tap. But it’s England, an IPA is not the same as in the States.

We came here for Sunday roast and left very full and satisfied! Friendly staffs, clean place, yummy food, good drinks, reasonable price and good portions!

Great pub and good food. Such a shame that the service was absolutely terrible. Bar staff were rude and disinterested. Such a shame as the venue is lovely. Sadly we won’t be returning here again. Very disappointing.

We took over the pub for the evening of 21st June for all the delegates that had attended our 2 day conference. We had approx 200 guests using the whole pub. It was faultless. The entire pub team worked so hard to ensure we all had a great time. Free flowing drinks all evening. Delicious food handed around to everyone. I could not fault a single thing. I would highly recommend this pub. It's traditional. Beautiful. All the good drinks. Typical pub fayre. Well looked after. Clean. Fun.

I booked an area for 40 and we had some of the upstairs room. I paid a £50 deposit to book and it was instantly returned to me on arrival. The pub is lovely, it was a wonderful evening and the nachos are divine!

We searched for a traditional pub meal and stumble on this one just tip from Russell Sq Great Cumberland Sausages and mash enjoyed by all

Good food and good selection of the beers. If you like traditional fish and chip, that's the place you can get it. I would recommend to visit.

One of the better fish and chips is served here. Best tasting draft beer is Camden Hell; a light pils. Bangers and mash is a very good dish as well. Highly recommend eating here.

I was still eating but the waiter cleared my plate without asking me. I ordered fish and chips, I just finished the fish and the plate was full of chips. When I was talking with friends, he cleared the plate behind me very quickly. so...

One of the best pubs in Bloomsbury! Great selection of beers and ales and the nicest staff around! Can’t wait to come back!

My friend and I stopped in for a beer. The decor was up to that we have seen in Dublin. Low ceilings; lots of ornate wood work. Overall, it is the welcoming atmosphere that goes perfectly with good beer.

Very good dinner especially the burger and beer of course. But the best part is tho who work there, perfect service !!

Lively pub, nice traditional pub food and responsive staff. They had music a bit loud but we could still hear each other just fine. If in the area totally recommend.

Dropped into The Marquis Cornwallis on arrival in London, proper pub with a wide range of beers and excellent food. Staff really friendly and would recommend for anyone visiting this part of London

I booked the event space above the pub for an event of 45 attendees, there is a minimum spend that was perfect for our requirements, this included projector and screen unlimited tea and coffee and lunch platters for our guests. The food was lovely, the...

We booked the upstairs room for our engagement party as it is a great location for those coming in from the midlands and also a really lovely venue. They answered all my questions in the months leading up and made decorating/brining cake/ordering food very easy....

Great decor and atmosphere. Had dinner with friends and service great. Not as ridiculously expensive as many places either.

Good pub grub, pub atmosphere and a nice pint. Having few days in London decided one night to have good blighty pub grub and piint. This busy, buzzy, friendly was just that. Nice heavy wood tables, table service if wanted. I fancied sea bass not...

Delicious burgers, good size portions. Staff are very attentive and all have good experience in bar work which is rare to find in London. Cocktails are very nice, huge selection for reasonable price. Overall would recommend.

An excellent pub. The staff are very helpful and welcoming. Standard selection of beers and 3-4 cask ales. The food is very good. The vegetarian Bangers and Mash is much better than most. The Broccoli and the Padrones are also much better than the usual....

Came for a late company Christmas lunch. Great variety of food (plates could be a bit bigger), good atmosphere, nice spacious area to fit lots of people.

One of the best cheeseburgers that I have had in a long time. Also upgraded to the truffle oil fries and they were delicious, too. Would have happily eaten that meal again! SO had the hake and it was lacking some kind of side. It...

Located near Russell Square station and The Brunswick Centre, I went to this pub for a NYE party. It's not a bad pub, the range of drinks are abundant (even if very costly) but there were some criticisms to be had, the party was located...

Had our work Christmas here today and it was very good. A great private room upstairs with a friendly team and tasty food. Thank you for looking after us.

Relatively busy Thursday night, moderate queue. Finally made it to the front of the queue and ordered two pints, a glass of wine and a lime and soda. Not a terribly adventurous or complex order. Well... first the guy got stuck logging in to the...

Neighborhood type pub that did not seem to be part of a chain as so many in London are now. We enjoyed it so much we visited twice. We were able to get a table the first time without reservations but reserved for our second...

had a good drink and chat with Reg behind bar good atmosphere very relaxing pub good prices for the area will call in again when i am in the area

The Marquis Cornwallis is situated opposite the Brunswick shopping centre and is a short walk from Russell Square underground station. We arrived early and had a couple of drinks before eating. My pint of bitter was somewhat cloudy and unpalatable - I probably should have...

Enjoyed - was a little bit squeezed in around an L shaped table which meant our team were split into 2 which was a shame. Feel like staff could've done more to support with this but appreciate time of the year & wanting to pack...

Good food at the Marquis Cornwallis and a warm welcome from the staff. Thanks to our main server Dasha for a really nice experience. We will certainly be back next time we are in town.

We popped into this local as our original plans fell through. We had burgers, scotch eggs & fish fillet fish - all very good! We would definitely eat here again

Great food, service, and atmosphere. We had a great time! Definitely will come back next time in London!

Unlike some pubs in the area, this pub is welcoming to visitors. The food is fairly standard, but service is very good with a nice selection on tap. Reservations are highly recommended if you will be there for the Sunday Roast!

Normally I drink at the hotel pub immediately opposite The Marquis Cornwallis. This time the other pub was virtually empty and charging a 10% service charge on drinks so I crossed over to the Marquis Cornwallis. . I was pleased to spend my afternoon and...

The menu was typical pub grub, with nothing for the health conscious. I should have known when the place was nearly empty that something was not quite right and should have gone elsewhere. I had vouchers for a 'free pint of beer' with any main...

The pub is fine. The food is terrible in very meagre portions - you'll be hungry again by the time you leave. The chicken burger is a chicken thigh.. yes that's right THIGH .. in a small stale bun, and all for £17! The mayonnaise...

I recently had a work leaving do with around 40 people at the Marquis Cornwallis. I was very impressed with the service I got. They set aside an area of the pub for me and my friends and rearranged tables to make it a private...

Had dinner here with some colleagues, food was nice and ordering done from the table thru a QR code. This is efficient but you loose touch with the waiting staff and everything becomes a routine rather than an opportunity to build a relationship with customers...

Nice looking pub and friendly staff. Unfortunately the food was disappointing - too much thyme and salt in the roast and very tough beef which was refunded.

A crowd of us visited this pub reminiscing about life before retiral. Despite being quite a large place, it was pretty quiet even over lunchtime and I wondered whether the high prices could have been anything to do with it. We weren't eating so unable...

Nous avons atterri ici au hasard et n’avons pas été déçus : accueil chaleureux et détendu, fish and chips excellent !!! En voyant arriver le plat très très copieux, je ne pensais pas le finir. Mais c’était tellement bon, qu’il n’est rien resté ! Les enfants étaient quant à eux, ravis de leurs burgers .

corporate team quiz hosted in the upstairs private space. IT WAS WONDERFUL. great space, great staff, and all round a a great night. HUGE thanks to the team, and would highly recommend.

great service and friendly welcoming staff. reassuringly busy - great for a friendly drink. clean toilets

We were staying at the Holiday Inn Bloomsbury and wanted a Sunday roast dinner. We were not disappointed. Great pub opposite the hotel and the beef dinner was amazing. Fully recommend this place.

I had the 'award winning' steak and ale pie, my friend for the ' beyond meat ' burger . The pastry on my pie could not be cut with a knife and fork at all, the vegetables were cooked but tepid, I left the entirety...

Mediocre. Food fault decent but every pint ordered was served short, requiring a request to be topped up. Gents toilets broken so the ladies being used as a unisex which was in an atrocious state with no attempt to keep it clean

Good pub. Clean, good service, great choice of drinks & food. Friendly and a good atmosphere. Worth a visit.

Good food and drink. Good service. Was not too busy. Staying nearby and enjoyed our evening here. Would recommend.

nice friendly pub for drinks with friends as was staying near. real cool & cosy. did not eat but food looked good.

Great service and lovely staff! Would definitely recommend!! Anyone in Bloomsbury looking for a good drink and food come down!!

The one pub in Bloomsbury you do not want to miss! Cosy vibes, stunning decor and the best drinks. You won’t regret it

Great beer. Great atmosphere. Great location. Went for beers after work. Very helpful staff. Good range of craft beer.

Nice friendly pub and a good menu. I went for “The Boss” - a calorific, monster burger which was so big, I had to use a knife and fork to eat it. Naughty but very nice! Absolutely fantastic…

The team couldn't have been more helpful in the organising of this event. We used the room upstairs but this didn't mean we were forgotten about.

Nice atmosphere, good music, Amazing staff, great food and service. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

Such a lovely place to spend an evening catching up with friends. Good food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Definitely recommend!

Lovely place with lovely staff Such a friendly environment as soon as you walk in Couldn’t do enough for us Would recommend to anyone

Excellent fish cakes for lunch on business meeting. Lovely pint of Camden hells. Look forward to our next visit

Lovely traditional pub. Decent pint of Timothy Taylors, nice decor, few outside seats to people watch. The service is first class too. You wouldn't make a special trip here but if in the area, you wont go wrong for a drink here.

Great traditional pub lots of variety of drink and food ….friendly staff fun night out for friends and family…!

Best restaurant for spending some time with family or friends… friendly staff and nice atmosphere ❤️

Very nice food and a nice atmosphere and polite and accommodating staff. Would be more than happy to recommend to all. Will be back soon.

I have visited The Marquise Cornwallis so many times, I never been disappointing with them, always smiling and attentive. The atmosphere and the drinks are amazing. As we live different times this time, all the health and safety rules is been followed to keep staff and visitors safe.

I popped in to The Marquis Cornwallis yesterday with a friend for drinks, and had a great time. The pub was roomy and well-presented, and very clean. It was quiet and calm despite being in central London too. We were served our drinks by Stephen, who was really helpful and friendly, just like the other staff we met. The service was fast too. We felt so welcome that we stayed for some food too. I had the sausage and mash, which was tasty and had very good sausages, and my friend had the steak pie which they enjoyed. Both meals were good value for the area. 10/10 would recommend- I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the area.

Great place, highly recommended! Stuff been attending and smiley! Normal prices for London standards. Great atmosphere. Special thanks to Steven for taking care of us! 100% going back

Really recommend this for anyone in the Russell Square area, which lacks pubs of real character and a bit of history. The food at the Marquis is really terrific and good value given the location. Staff were nice, friendly and attentive. It's a really quiet area so a great location to visit on a sunny day. Nice high ceilings makes it airy and comfortable too for summer. Great historic pub, we will be back!

Great service and food. They were incredibly accommodating to our groups needs for the football and made extra effort to give us the table with the best view.

Always an excellent atmosphere, very welcoming and helpful staff, great roasts and very accommodating with group bookings for events etc.

Brilliant bar, excellent service. Can’t recommend highly enough! Great atmosphere and really friendly staff.

My group had some very specific requirements, and the guys at the pub were incredibly accommodating - Could't recommend them more to be honest! That aside, the food was great and the atmosphere right up there with the best!

We stopped here before a cinema trip for food and drinks, really tasty and good pub atmosphere. Will be back!
