The Veterans Kitchen in Hammersmith and Fulham

Fantastic place on wandsworthbridge road! Great food, fantastic drinks, friendly staff and very reasonable prices... Welcome to the neighbourhood compass, we needed you!

So good I had to come twice in one week. The lamb special falls off the bone and is incredible. The rice and pasta excellent too. Easy 5 stars

Fuimos aquí antes 6 un sábado por la noche. No había nadie más en el restaurante. La primera cosa que noté fue que todo estaba bien presentado y muy limpio. El personal era muy atento pero no insoportables. Comencé con poppadoms y los condimentos eran muy fresco y sabroso. Realmente me gustó el cebolla picado y el Pickle caliente. Como plato principal tenía pollo Jalfrezi, Masala Aloo y un pan de Nan. Encontré el Foo calientes, pero no demasiado caliente. El Masala Aloo era realmente cremosa y el Jalfrezi fue sutilmente condimentadas con verduras frescas. ninguna plato era de ninguna manera grasienta. Pedí una cerveza pero no tienen licencia sin embargo, tenía agua ya que no era un problema para mí, pero tengo entendido que de otros comentarios puede traer la suya, así que puede ser una opción. - en general muy limpio, buen servicio y buena comida.

We lived in Hammersmith several years ago and then the place was our favourite- not a day without their fab baguette, not a weekend without their amazing desserts (you would enjoy each and every from the menu!) A magnificent taste of real France on the bank of River Thames it was then! Then we moved and only rarely I had a chance to pop in and buy as much as I could to enjoy these treats as long as possible!.. But my two recent visits really shocked me: not a baguette, not a single piece of dessert or tart was the same as before!?! That’s how I discovered what I actually started to suspect: the new owner. Thus - a totally new place, taste and aftertaste… Now I know why I don’t have to take this long trip to this once a gem of Hammersmith: a very average quality of every dessert, a very poor quality of pastries (croissant shouldn’t be called that name here anymore…) and bread (brioche is anything but a brioche here now…) I agree with other reviews, that new owners were too bold to keep the same price level for their products, but the worse thing is, that they also are trying to cut down their expenses by using lower quality (or quantity) of the ingredients. But more importantly, I agree with the statement , that you can’t use the history of this place as your own, you have to clearly tell customers, that you are new there and just TRYING to keep this place as good as it once was… Adieu, Patisserie Saint Anna UPDATE. Received a response from the owner today: “Fake review”,. Sorry, guys, but this one is not fake. As a proof, adding a photo of my yesterday dessert (couldn’t finish it, sorry…). Use to love it so much, but now it has lots of lumps in it, so no pleasure of eating that at all…

The best patisserie in west London by far!
