The Skinny Kitchen in Islington

Food, vibe, and service was great but the loudness of the music just overpowered the whole experience. It got so loud we was texting each other as we couldn't hear each other over the music and the table next to us was the same. The choice of music was great but was far too loud. Won't be returning or recommending, don't think it was worth the money either.

Such a waste of time don’t bother. The experience was advertised as 90 minutes bottomless food and drink. We got one drink and one (very small) plate of food in 40 minutes. We were trying to get attention from the staff for another drink but they were too busy. I think there were 3 waitresses serving the whole restaurant so it’s not their fault, but just so poorly run and the worst bottomless brunch I’ve been to in London by far. Thankfully we had timeout vouchers so we only paid half price, but wasn’t even worth that. So many better brunches around.

We went on 25th August bottomless brunch. Had about 4 drinks in 90 minutes. The service was abysmal, you had to get servers attention otherwise they would not come to your table. Very poor experience for bottomless. Also there was music being played louder than you would find in a nightclub, so you could barely speak to eachother. If you are looking for a bottomless, please go elsewhere!"

Had the absolute displeasure of visiting today for a friends birthday. Food was terrible, service was appalling and most of the staff we're rude, uninterested and i question why they decided to have a career in hospitality. The only person working was the red head with curly hair who was doing her best and single handedly keeping the business afloat. Took 1 hour to have 1 drink each, and 1 terrible food item, which is beyond outrageous for a bottomless brunch. There are infinity better brunches in london for less than half the price, so dont waste your time or money.

WORST BRUNCH EVER. Don't waste your money!! Service was so slow barely had anything to eat from the "bottomless food and drink". Half orders never made it to our table. One staff member came up to us and asked for our reservation mid way through our brunch and was appallingly rude to my friend who was saying that the booking was under my name. It almost felt like an insult to me as she thought my name was a joke and didn't believe it me until I showed her my booking confirmation. Her attitude was so disgusting we was all thrown off as we wasn't being rude to her at all and answered all her questions politely.

We had a fantastic time for my hen do at the skinny kitchen. The food was lovely and the drinks were being bought over quickly. The entertainment was great, this place had such a good vibe. Unfortunately there are only two tiny toilets which is an issue and causes a queue through the restaurant which just looks and feels a bit messy. Also you asked to remove any bridal party wear, hats, sash’s etc. I think this would be taken better by guests if we could just understand why? Entertainers great at involving everyone especially the main people of each party. Overall really good time I would definitely recommend.

My friend and I were in the area before going on to Sadlers Wells Theatre for a show. We were a bit bemused by the name: Skinny Kitchen. We thought it was a salad restaurant catering for dieters. We were pleasantly surprised at the choices on the menu. Our waitress, called Jaidene, was very attentive. She explained the items and made sure we were comfortable. We enjoyed the food, atmosphere and the general ambiance. We will visit it again; we recommend The Skinny Kitchen.

Visited recently, a group of 12 of us. Three of these were non drinkers which clearly states £45pp on the website. We paid our £20pp deposit each before coming. When we arrived the waitress rudely told us the non drinkers would have to pay £65pp the same as drinkers. When questioned why she stated because you still get the brunch and the music/ dancing included. Sorry but this is wrong hence the negative review. I had two pregnant people in my party so why should they pay for the alcohol package? It’s wrong and misleading. Your website clearly states it’s £45pp for the non alcohol package. I did ask to speak to the manager and she said on this occasion she’d honour it! Honestly what rubbish. I advise any one on the non alcohol package to be careful!! It’s just a money making scheme! Then there was the £99 (optional) service charge on the bill!! Otherwise the brunch its self was good! The guy on the bongo drums was the best part of it all!! He was fantastic!

I wouldn't go again . Went to the skinny kitchen for a hen do. 13 of us so we had to paid In advance. £65 a ticket but I don't understand why . The drinks tasted watered down . Especially the pink gin drink . Tasted like Strawberry robinsons juice. The food was the biggest joke there . I had the Pitta and hummus. . You get 3 small bits of pitta and a small pot of hummus . The main you get a small burger and a few fries . . You only have an hour and a half to have all you can drink but you can only get hardly any drink because of slow service . So you end up only get 2 or 3 drinks . As soon as your timeq up . You have to leave straight away. The staff were lovely but slow service . The music was good . Don't waste you time or money going . Not worth the £65 . . I'll happily pay £20 /£30 for what you get .

We were there with a Hen party - 1 of 4 hen parties that attended that evening and all brides and hen party groups were rudely asked to take off any wedding related accessories. I understand this is policy, however the way the security spoke to the bride and to other members of the group really wasnt a great start as this was the first thing we were greeted with before even getting into the venue. I would understand if this was the Ritz but its a bog standard venue that is pretty much designed for hen parties and birthday parties. We could not fault the food at all, everyone enjoyed their meals and it was nice not having to pre-order. All of the food came out nice and quickly. There was a good selection of cocktails and wines to choose from and these were being topped up super quickly! We definitely feel that we got great value for money in this repect! The dancers were great and got the place going! However, for the 3 hours we were there, they were only there for about 30mins max, at 10mins at a time. I would have thought the entertainment could have lasted longer. The event came to a very abrupt end without any 10 minute warning to drink up and go to the toilet or anything which meant no one was ready to leave but security staff were shouting at guests to leave - again not a pleasant way to end the experience either. The toilets were a joke - only 2 loos for a room full of people and they were so compact that you could quite easily knock someone out when opening the door. Overall we had a great time! Just little bits that the place could work on to make it perfect!
