The Slug and Lettuce, Islington in Islington - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Recientemente visité Leicester Square y decidí comer en The Slug and Lettuce como me lo habían recomendado. El restaurante se veía bien al llegar, pero pronto me decepcionó (¡así como a muchos otros clientes, parece!) Después de ordenar y recibir bebidas y sentarme en mi mesa, escuché a otras personas quejándose del servicio lento y de que algunas opciones en el menú no estaban disponibles ( Pescado y patatas fritas y salchicha y puré siendo dos de ellos). Decidí mirar más allá de estas quejas y hacer mi propio veredicto sin embargo. Al principio me sacaron la comida equivocada, recibí pastel y puré en lugar del pollo ahogado que había ordenado, aunque esto se solucionó en unos minutos. Mi comida, sin embargo, era tibia y poco apetecible, los guisantes eran duros y apenas calientes. Ni siquiera terminé la comida e incluso fui a Five Guys después de una hamburguesa, ya que no estaba llena debido a que mi comida no era muy agradable. No volveremos pronto No estoy seguro si esto fue solo uno, pero no estaba satisfecho o impresionado! !

Slug y lechuga cerca de Victoria Londres. . . .El servicio de bar más lento de todos. . . Además de esa muy mala actitud. . . Lo siento, pero su trabajo es hospitalidad y si no le gusta, puede conseguir otro trabajo pero no ser grosero con la gente cuando ya han estado esperando por siempre para ser atendidos. .Muy poco probable que vuelva a este bar. . .

Drinks served in a hot glass without any ice available, no fruit served with the gins. Rather disappointing experience without any reasoning from staff as to the lack of these additions to our drinks.

Esta no era la primera vez que había estado en Slug and Lettuce, fui a Birmingham. La última vez que fui, fue genial. Pero fui a este restaurante en particular y el servicio fue terrible. En primer lugar, nos enviaron a 3 mesas diferentes incluso antes de poder pedir. Al principio, el personal ni siquiera pareció darse cuenta de que estábamos allí y no hizo ninguna interacción positiva. Tuvimos que ir y encontrar nuestro propio menú de comida. Hicimos el pedido, que tardó unos 15 minutos en pararse en el bar antes de recibir cualquier servicio (y aunque eran las 7 p. M. Del viernes por la noche, no estaba ocupado en absoluto. Definitivamente no vio una razón para esperar 15 minutos ) El 2 por 10 es una buena oferta y los cócteles eran increíbles. Pero tuvimos que esperar 40 minutos para que llegara nuestra comida (que incluía 3 mini entrantes y 2 hamburguesas). Los 3 entrantes salieron en diferentes momentos. Y las hamburguesas salieron mal. En primer lugar, mi hamburguesa de pollo estaba negra por un lado, pero como habíamos esperado lo suficiente, comí de todos modos. Mi compañero tenía la hamburguesa Reuben. La hamburguesa estaba amartillada bien pero le faltaba la costilla de ternera (todo el punto de la hamburguesa reuben). Le informamos al gerente que iba a comprar uno nuevo, dijimos que teníamos prisa e insistió en que sería una cuestión de minutos. 20 minutos después, todavía no hay señales de la hamburguesa. Estábamos conociendo amigos, así que estábamos apurados por irnos. Al salir, dijimos que nos íbamos. El gerente fue extremadamente lo siento y nos dio un reembolso completo por nuestra comida.Aunque el servicio fue lento. La comida estuvo buena. No volvería a visitar este restaurante en particular, pero estaría encantado de ir a otro Slug and Lettuce.

Llamado en el día de para asegurarse de que el partido de fútbol de la Liga Europa (champions) sería indicada y que el sonido iba a ser. Nos aseguraron. Experiencia horrible. En vez tocaba música basura y el personal y el gerente mantuvo en culpar de otros por su incapacidad para poner en o subir el sonido. Por último, no así para los últimos cinco minutos, pero a un nivel ensordecedor.Y una botella de cerveza Brewdog artesanía local (5,50 libras) costo... ridículo.Nunca OTRA VEZ PARA CUALQUIER DEPORTE.Horrible lugar malo con personal genérico inútil.

Fuimos un lunes para el almuerzo. Una buena pinta de encargado de Taylor y una hamburguesa de pollo con mango y aguacate, lado de exactos de patatas fritas. Mis dos colegas tuvieron principales similares, y la factura de la comida fue de sólo 14 libras ya que fue a mitad de precio. He estado en este pub varias veces en Londres por negocios y siempre he tenido una buena experiencia. Recomendado.

Great private room for our Xmas party. Lovely set menu very nice food. Service a bit spotty as we had a private bar upstairs but they where reluctant to staff it for us to use. Overall good night would come again!

Visited on a Sunday. Liked it. Friendly staff and customers. had burger. very good, well presented. Football was on but did not take over the bar.

popped in here for a few drinks and a quick bite to eat found the place to be friendly and not bad service its worth a quick drink if in the area

Just what you'd expect in a decent pub. Sadly they are surrounded by independent eateries so if looking for something different I wouldn't choose here but if you want atmosphere and to pretty much know what your getting it's ideal

Mi amigo reservó en este lugar para celebrar su cumpleaños. La reserva era para 8 y nos dijo que queríamos comer allí. Habíamos reservado para 8 pm y por el tiempo que habíamos pedido nuestras bebidas y nos decidimos por lo que nos íbamos a comer era 9:00 pm. Mi marido y otro amigo fuimos al bar para pedir nuestra comida pero al llegar nos dijeron que la cocina había Cerrado!!!! Cuando les preguntamos por qué, contestaron que ya no había ordenado comida en los últimos cuatro horas que cerraban la cocina. Éste fue efectivamente la peor experiencia que he encontrado en cualquier bar o restaurante. La planta de arriba estaba en mal estado y realmente no nos impresionó en el lugar. Gracias a Dios la cocina cerrada ya que terminamos en Cote Parking a unas cuantas puertas al lado y tenía una comida maravillosa.

Llegamos a el trozo y lechuga near London Bridge en alrededor de las 6:00 p.m. un sábado por la noche. El pub estaba muy animada y todo el mundo estaba asentarse para ver el rugby, nos pareció estupendo. Encontramos una mesa grande y sillas así que comenzó a añadir que todo nuestro grupo podría sentar. Había 12 de nosotros en nuestro grupo pero había un montón de otras mesas en el pub con grupos grandes.

Nos gustó mucho el aspecto del menú y el hecho de que había un montón de gente sentada tanto por dentro como por fuera, decidimos comer aquí.

I turned up at this venue after a booking down the road ( Nags Head- avoid!) went wrong. A young guy ( Jason I think?) welcomed our group and made us feel welcome. He showed us the food menu and the different drinks available. His friendly banter and quick service put us at ease quickly and we thoroughly enjoyed out night. We will defo return.

Great breakfast comes with tea or coffee £ 6.65 but on Mondays half price £3.32. Monday all day food has 50% off deal.Staff are friendly it tends to be very quiet early in the day 11 ish don't go too early as kitchen may not be ready. The quality of food is top knoch and well presented. My partner said a few weeks back its the best brekkie he's had for ages.

We booked a table for 8 o'clock and was told on the phone we could only get one in the downstairs area as the upstairs one was booked for a private party, which was fine with us. We decided to start with a few sharers while waiting for some more friends to join, and were ready to order our mains at 9pm, a good hour before kitchen closing time. But without ANY kind of prior written or verbal notice, the kitchen closed to the public as they were serving the private party upstairs and we could not have dinner, not even if we waited! This is absolutely unacceptable, they had several chances to let us know about this, firstly on the phone while booking (when I specified we wanted to eat), and then during the many times we went to the bar to order drinks and sharers (which was at least 3 times)! The manager was "sorry" about the inconvenience and absolutely uninterested in the awful service his pub was offering. After complaining for a bit we got offered a round of free drinks, which we couldn't accept as we had to rush to find another place for dinner before all kitchens closed. Unbelievable and unacceptable!

Went with a group of friends on Saturday. We had prebooked a table and were seated upstairs which was fine as we wanted to talk rather than stand around shouting at each other. The 2 for 1 cocktails went down a storm and were very good value. My favourites were the pornstar martini and the sea breeze.

If you go here, go on a Monday when it's 50% off your bill.The food is ok, but nothing special that you couldn't get elsewhere, and the deserts are an extortionate price for the size of the portion.As I say, go when it's a Monday, as at full price it's not worth it

I tend to pop in here whenever I am in the Angel/Islington part of town for a night out. The drink prices are reasonable for an upmarket type of bar, and the food is also quite decent. Moreover, the clientele and staff are always a good laugh with shots and plenty of banter. There's also a smoking area with seats outside next to the green, but it can be awkward due to being on a relatively steep slope! Overall I recommend the Slug and Lettuce as a great place to grab a pint or some shots after a long day of work.

We arrived to the slug and lettuce excited for the 50% off food. But it all quickly went down hill, firstly I went to the bar only to be told that I couldn't even order my food until everyone at my table had showed their IDs. The bar tender was more than rude. I came back up to order my food and ask for a drink only to be told they didn't have the mint to make it, I then said I'd look through the book again. When I asked for an elderflower fizz with mint in it he angrily said 'I TOLD you we have no mint! And I'm not changing any drink!'. We returned to the table and I finally received my steak, after watching my plate sit in the cold for ten minutes. I had ordered peppercorn sauce but that did not arrive, I asked for it once and then once again after another five minutes only to be grunted at and rudely told ' yeah they're making it!'My onion rings were also cold.Not happy, this place had a lot or potential but its staff let it down.

We visited on a Monday, which was 50% off food night. This was the only reason I didn't send my food back and go elsewhere. The visit started well with the three men behind the bar being very helpful and guiding me through the menu. The first problem was when a less than enthusiastic waitress brought our starters up. 'Garlic bread' she said. Neither of us had ordered garlic bread so we indeed looked puzzled. 'Garlic bread' she insisted again, this time with more urgency. 'Oh no sorry we ordered bread strips and olives' we said as we proceeded to look through the menu to show her what we were expecting. 'Garlic bread' she insisted, before placing the plate down anyway and walking away. We then realised the item she had insisted was garlic bread was indeed the bread strips. The conclusion of this point is firstly, get it right love, and secondly, don't be so rude, especially when YOU'RE wrong! Amongst all the confusion, we didn't even notice that my starter was completely wrong! There are two similar options on the menu. The bread and olives, and the bread and beetroot humus. Both come with a bowl of bread, a dish of olive oil and vinegar and then EITHER a dish of olives or a dish of humus. Having ordered the olives, I was given the humus. (This is the second time this has happened here...in two visits!). Nevertheless, our 'less-than-enthusiastic' waitress was long gone by now. I decided to wait a couple of minutes as we seemed to think she had said 'I'll be back'. After about 2 minutes I decided to head down to the bar to swap my humus for olives, and who would I meet on the way; our joyous waitress again; this time with the gentleman that served me, heading up the stairs with our main courses. Now the fact that our main courses were now on the way and I still hasn't received my starter is an entirely different matter, but firstly I wanted to address the 'gossip' I overheard. They didn't see me as I was at the top of a spiral staircase, they were at the bottom, but I overheard the waitress saying to the man; 'I was just standing there, my hand shaking with the plates', presumably referring to the event a couple of minutes ago where YOU told us the wrong information, which caused our confusion. I this time asked the man to sort out my humus/olive issue which he did with no issues. Eventually, we were left with the correct food, albeit AT THE SAME TIME. Come on! I know it's a pub but they know the difference between a starter and a main course in weatherspoons! Not only does one course go cold whilst you eat the other, but I personally enjoy time Inbetween to digest one before the next; regardless of whether I'm dining at the savoy, macdonalds or in this case slug and lettuce. My main complaint is with our waitress. Quite frankly awful service! I personally feel so strongly about rude customer service which is what prompted me to write this. Fair enough if you don't enjoy your job and just do it for the money, but don't be rude to me!

The cocktails are fabulous, very tasty, made well and quickly. The staff are eager to serve and able to give cocktail advise.

We stopped here for some lunch and had a lovely meal.I had ordered the Lebanese-style chicken flatbread but got the Lebanese-style chicken salad instead. However, it looked and tasted really nice and the price was practically the same so I didn't mind (and the waitress did offer to exchange it).My husband had the chicken souvlaki and the beetroot houmous that came with it was delicious!Staff were friendly and efficient.

My friends and I had a lovely time in this restaurant. The menu is very good and the choices are great. Nice staff too. The deals are good too! I like going to the different Slug and Lettuce restaurants in London because I know that I am guaranteed a good meal at a good price...Enjoy!!

The Slug and Lettuce is ideally located in Islington Green, at the beginning of Upper St. We enjoyed Sunday Roast with a large group of friends. Smiling staff, wide choice of menu and very good value for money

Me and my Fiancé went to this pub for an aperitif today before lunch. We asked for Campari but they didn’t have any, but then we spotted the Aperol and we went for it. The enthusiastic waitress (not) asked if we wanted a single or double shot luckily for us I optesd for the single one plus t wo little squirt of draught lemonade which later turned out to be sparkling water (maybe the lemonade run out) at only £ 10.40 for both drinks. if mathematics is not an opinion a double shot would have cost £ 20.80!!! Last month I bought a whole bottle from Waitrose (not Asda) for £ 10. We didn’t even get a slice of orange which is the correct Italian way of serving it. Probably you might have guessed that I will be not in a hurry to go back

Three of us chose to eat here early on a Monday evening before the theatre. The bar man had problems accessing the till which should have been a warning but drinks arrived quickly and we waited for our food. After ten minutes we were told that one of the times was off so we chose a replacement. Fifteen minutes later we learned that another item was off but decided to do without it for the sake of speed. Ten minutes after that we were still waiting and had stopped talking to each other in favour of staring hungrily at people who were already eating. The two dishes, when they arrived, were not worth waiting for. The sharing plate was barely enough for one. We had to eat fast at that stage but luckily the one task they managed on time was handing over the refund for the missing dish.

Great pub food and value for money. The staff were extremely sociable. The outdoor seating to the side has a view across Islington Green, unfortunately there was a noisy refrigerated truck parked nearby which forced us inside. A really good choice.

Prices are good and food is very decent.I went there on a busy Easter Friday late afternoon and the staff was very friendly.They have a room upstairs that is a bit quieter, perfect for conversations or even dates!I would recommend the platters, they are good quality, good value and enormous!I know this is a chain but I will definitely go back!

As pubs go you always know what to expect in the S&L Islington, food is decent and the staff can pour a pint but their skills at making cocktails could be improved a touch.

Dropped into Slug and Lettuce for some drinks with friends and grabbed a bite to eat. Standard was refreshingly good, lovely burger and huge deserts. Can't complain at all. It was also busy and the waitress and bar staff were really chatty. Genuinly seemed to be enjoying their jobs. All set the tone for a good night our for us.

We are not big fans of "pub" food, generally labeling it as greasy and boring. However on coming across the chain, The Slug & Lettuce, and hearing some quite positive reviews, we were inclined to visit in hope that our stereotypes would be short lived.The classy interior was far above our expectations; it has an airy and modern feel to it, but not drifting far away from the pub feel, featuring wooden floors and leather sofas.Based on the interior, we had high hopes for the food, however there was a slight hint of doubt, since the menu was broad, not just with your typical dishes such as burgers and fish, it covered different cuisines from Indian to Italian classics. It has been a sign before where there is too much variety that the quality of the food suffers, by not having a clear focus.We hoped that this would not be the case and when our burger arrived on a wooden palette, we was very excited to see whether the taste could match up to the presentation. On closer inspection, it was evident that the burger pate was frozen; it had a dull colour and the texture was very flat with some light grill marks. On biting into it, we was expecting the strong flavours of the ementale cheese and bacon to rush through, however all that you could taste was the grease. It literally was dripping from the burger when you held or cut into it. The grease made the burger heavy and the mushy chips on the side did nothing but add to this. The frozen pate made the non existent flavour even weaker.Our other main, was a grilled chicken, bacon and avocado salad; we hoped that a light salad would balance the heavy grease intake. Even this was disappointing, the chicken was tough and the bacon stringy. The dry salad unevenly out proportioned the amount of filling. The salad did not look or taste fresh, and the avocado showed this, being mushy and flat.The cookie crumble dessert was mediocre at best. The cookie base was soft and chewy; it had different ingredients, such as chocolate covered honey comb, marshmallows and brownies just thrown on top of a cookie. There was no imagination with what was being used, and the result was a clear mess, something that a child would put together if left alone with these ingredients in front of them. Even the accompanying scoop of vanilla ice cream was bland and did nothing but add moisture to the dry and over sweet mound. Its lack of texture especially from the cookie base left the dessert unbalanced and boring.The waiter was welcoming and warm making the poor experience of the food easier to take in. The food did come out relatively fast.We was very disappointed with the poor quality food, and it felt as though the food is only fit for people who are already drunk in the pub, even than we would prefer some other alternatives. The chain does have some great offers, such as 50% off food on Mondays and 2 for 1 cocktails on a Thursday. It is a pub that we would happily have a drink in since it is an attractive place with a range of drinks and cocktails on the menu, but in terms of food, it is one to avoid. The dining experience left us feeling sluggish and unsatisfied.

Me and my friends go here VERY often, either for drinks or food as they do great deals (half price on Mondays!!) its very cheap, the foods is always great, and they do lovely cocktails. Granted we're now regulars and can get an extra shot here and there, the staff are great, love to make it fun and very chatty, even when there's new people working there not sure about the cocktails its still good. It does get very busy at the weekends, been trouble a few times but thats simply due to some of the idiots that go there, the bouncers are really nice (but again we're biast as we're there all the time) really great place, I highly reccomend you give it a go.

We were searching for somewhere for breakfast. Popped in about 11am and were delighted when the menu said they served breakfast until 11am. However, when we came to order the barman checked with a colleague who told him she "wasn't doing breakfast at the moment". Hello?! We swiftly left and had a great - and no doubt much better quality - breakfast at Cote Brasserie next door.

Avarage selection of beers, the service is quite slow and rude. Cocktails are way to costy for being a common pub belonging to a chain, but the place itself is placed in a lovely location and it's good for summer evenings

We always make a point of stopping off in this lovely pub on Upper Street when we're in London. We most recently had the fishermans platter, which says on the menu it serves 3-4 people, and we can definately confirm this is the case!! It was huge! And so tasty. Have also tried other menu items such as the fish cakes and burgers and have never had any reason to complain about this pub grub. Highly recommended, even if it's just a pitcher of cocktails your after.

Very rude bartender, didnt smile, couldnt pour a lager properly and half filled my pint of coke. Not happy, wont return until they employ politer staff. Sundays are clearly quiet as most staff chatting amongst selves and the rest on their phones behind bar. Very poor service really especially when so many other nice bars around.

Was in the area with a group of friends and decided to pop in the Slug and Lettuce , there were 8 of us in our group and not one of us were disappointed with the food I had the Stateside burger which was delicious , as was the sticky toffee pudding , however what impressed us even more was the level of service we received , Liam who served us couldn't do enough always made sure we had enough drinks and anything else we required , food was 50% off as they had a special offer ,however would have been happy to pay full price as food and service so good

From it's great location on the corner of the green, to the lovely menu & tasty cocktails, we've never been disapppointed with the slug! Always drop in for a bite to eat & a drink when we're visiting Islington, liked it so much that it's even where we made the decision to get hitched up the street in the town hall!

Visited here for a Sunday brunch - the place advertised breakfast till noon but when we arrived at 10 to it still wasn't even open. Bit odd! That said they let us in and moved tables around us! We ordered a variety of items - all of these were good and I felt the full English at £5 including tea/coffee was good value. It was the first time I'd been to a Slug and Lettuce and based on this experience I'd return. Service was friendly although a little haphazard.

Went on Sat for a quick drink with he girls. Dj was in full swing and a lot of people inside. Staff were friendly and there seemed a lot of room. Good place to go.
