I came here for lunch with my mother and daughter, the service was exceptionally good, we had a super friendly and attentive host. We ordered the risotto which was perfectly cooked and full of flavour. I ordered a glass of the pinot noir which was also reasonably priced for the size and fresh. I would definitely return and recommend. It seems the more negative reviews are around busy periods so maybe that's a staffing issue, but my experience was exemplary.

Popped in for coffees after a meal elsewhere. Friendly service, efficient. Food stars are for the coffee, which was very good. Lose a star on atmosphere due to the constant queue of customers to use the single unisex toilet. Though cannot see how that can be addressed easily!!

Decent coffee, but way overpriced for an eggcup size of drinking vessel. Pastries were good but also expensive and then off course they had 12.5% service to the bill. There must be better offerings in the locality.

We recently had a mixed experience at Vermuteria. The atmosphere was fantastic, with a cozy and inviting ambiance that made for a great setting to enjoy a meal. The décor was charming, and the overall vibe was relaxed yet lively, making it a pleasant place to spend an afternoon. However, the service left much to be desired. Our server was inattentive and seemed disinterested throughout the meal. It took quite a while to get our drinks and even longer for the food to arrive. When we did receive our orders, there was a lack of warmth or enthusiasm from the staff, which detracted from the overall experience. The food itself was good. However, the highlight was supposed to be the tiramisu, and unfortunately, it was a real letdown. What was served didn't resemble a traditional tiramisu at all, lacking the rich, creamy layers and coffee-soaked savoiardi that one would expect. It felt like a pale imitation of the real thing, which was disappointing. In summary, Vermuteria has a great atmosphere and good food, but the service needs significant improvement, and the tiramisu, in particular, is something to avoid if you're expecting the real deal.

We decided to eat here because it looked really nice and cozy. When we sat down we had trouble hearing each other because of the loud music. When we ordered drinks we got a pint to much. When the food arrived everyone got there food at different times so some people where almost done and some people didn’t had food yet. The portion of the steak sandwich and risotto where quite small, especially for the price it wasn’t worth it. The taste was quite good 👍 When we were done we all where still hungry. Don’t recommend for food, maybe drinking 🍷

Welcome not really smiling. We ask you if you have a reservation (for a drink?) and since no, we offer you a barrel and a stool outside the terrace behind a green hedge. In short, for a last drink before getting back on the Eurostar, I think you can find better and much nicer things in this pretty neighborhood!

Total rip-off. It cost £8.50 for about 4 sips of very average vermouth, and then they tried to charge us for service as well, which we managed to get them to remove. Charging service for simple drinks only is not common or acceptable in the UK. On top of that, the service was atrocious.

We waited around 10 minutes or more before someone gave us menus. Then we waited another 10 minutes or so before someone came to take our order. Staff walked past our empty table many times without realising we hadn't been seen to. It was very odd and not a good experience. The person who brought us our drinks was very friendly and nice and made up a bit for our bad experience but I still wouldn't be keen to go to this cafe again.

Superb service and a fascinating journey through some vermouths and bitters. I had seen the negative reviews, and was disappointed, since we're growing fans of vermouth. But we decided to have a look anyway since we were nearby, and were immediately welcomed, given some great advice, a little taster of some suggestions, and then ended up having a glass and some nibbles. Definitely worth stopping by!

My main complaint is the waiter who served us. He had no personality what so ever. He was very rude and miserable and had no social skills at all. When i did complain to him, he didn't really understand or a case of pretended he never understood. Also the food was OK but very expensive for what we got. Would not go back to this place on the basis of rude staff and overpriced food. The waiter in question had glasses and shouldn't be doing the job if he can't be polite.

From bad to worse really. Sat down at 9pm on a Friday to be rushed into last orders. For a specialty bar the server was unable to offer any recommendations and could only recommend ‘house’ drinks. Used the facilities and queued behind what turned out to be a staff member who appeared unable to use the toilet flush function (you are dehydrated my man). Overpriced and disappointing.

The drinks are good, if at the top end of the price scale but the service is an absolute disgrace. There’s a reason it’s as quiet at 9pm on a Friday night and will no doubt be another stone baked pizzeria in a few months time. Nice idea, very very badly executed. Shame.

We stopped for a drink and a snack on a Saturday evening - snacks and drinks are overpriced but okay, but the service seemed to be there only for pushing us out and was overall just so poorly executed. Many reviews state that so we feel stupid for not having checked first, you should just never step into a 3.7 stars place. They made us seat at a dirty table with spilled liquids and didn’t care about cleaning it. Someone took our order, but after a while someone else showed up to take our order too. It was just the beginning of the disaster and a power race between two waitresses. Drinks arrived fast, when mine was 3/4 over I had to fight to keep it as the two waitresses passed three times in 10 minutes asking if they could take the empty glass (which was not empty). When they passed for a fourth time 5 mins later I asked (exasperated, I might have been slightly rude) if I was allowed to keep my glass until it was clearly empty or I asked to take it away. …this worked so well less than three minutes later the second waitress passed again, grabbed it and asked if she could take it away at which point I gave up. The Mrs downed her drink, we paid and left to never come back. Just go at a convenience store, buy a random bottle and a bag of crisps and you’ll have a better experience. Ps: in case you’re wondering if we’re the kind of couple which gets a glass of water and expects to sit at a table for half a day - I don’t know when we got in but we paid and left at 19:07. The previous transaction on our cards is at 18:13 at a place which is 10 minutes out. Some quick math shows they wanted us out in about 30 mins, for an £36 order. We left after 44 mins, making then earn about £0.80 per minute. The fun thing is if their service wasn’t so bad we would have stayed another hour for a second and third round + dinner at no less than £120 looking at their menu, which would have been £1.34 per minute - they are so bad they can’t even do math and some food spend forecasting.

Great cocktails. The diplomat, whiskey sour, coffee martini, and daiquiri were so good. Everyone was lovely, the manager, barman, waitresses... Great music, very cool place. I had just had lunch, but cannot wait to go back and try the food menu, it all looked delicious. From the name, you would have guessed the vermouth selection is quite broad, and interesting.

We’d never been in this part of London before or certainly since the area has been so thoroughly updated. We popped into Vermuteria for an evening meal. I note that some of its recent reviews have been quite negative. Certainly it is pricy but we enjoyed our visit. I had a steak sandwich & my wife had mackerel both of which were delicious. The service was maybe a bit slow but all the staff we dealt with were friendly and hospitable.

We ordered two negronis and they were simply disappointing, glass was half empty. 75ml of alcohol for £15 a glass is not worth it. DO NOT recommend it

Indifferent service/hospitality despite mostly empty cafe late afternoon.

We were exploring the coal drops yard and came across this little bar, restaurant, perhaps myself and husband don’t meet their required clientel standards with our Herefordshire accent, or was it our age (we are 60 and 68 but are much younger in ourselves) or because we only wanted drinks. We were directed to these tall very narrow stools on tall tables, no problem however we were the only customers in this lifeless room with no atmosphere what so ever, because we didn’t want food, however other customers who came in and asked for just drinks were taken through to a little buzzing room. We chose 2 gin and tonics , in a small wine glass the tonic wasn’t even in a separate bottle, so I believe the tonic shared between us both or from a large bottle. which we believed would be about £12 each, when my husband paid we stupidly didn’t ask to see the bill and just paid, when checking our balance later it cost us £29.25 which doesn’t even devide evenly between 2 bills, a service charge was not deserved for the terrible service with the most uncomfortable chairs, I would not recommend this place to anyone, I always give fair reviews and hate being so critical, however I really have not received such a terrible service at this ridiculous price ever, if the service, seating and ambience had been better then this review wouldn’t have been written, We ate and drank all over London at lots of different bars, cocktail bars and pubs, this was my only negative experience

Water was always refilled, drinks and food were offered at the perfect time, we were never left waiting for anything. Thank you for a brilliant lunch!

Spotted this restaurant when we went to explore the newly renovated area behind Kings Cross and St Pancras. Small with very friendly staff and an interesting menu. Themed on vermouth and road race cycling. Certainly the place to go for their delicious house martinis. The food was incredibly good. We chose a charcuterie board to share for a starter followed by their slow cooked shoulder of Denbighshire lamb. Both extremely delicious. They also do great coffee and you can go there for that outside their busy lunch period. We will definitely be returning.

It was a nice idea when it first opened. Now it feels more like a swindle. Whilst there is undoubtedly a great range of vermouths, the prices and the sheer lack of knowledge from undertrained or disinterested staff is a massive turn off. My recent visit will be my last. Two vermouths, nuts and olives plus service for £33!? Never again.

I have never experienced such terrible behaviour from an eating/drinking establishment as I did today. We did not eat here, but thank goodness as these would be the type of people to spit in your food. Others reviewing have also said the food is bad so thank goodness we didn’t. I also agree with other reviews that they are ‘very bitter and money grabbing.’ I visited today for the first time with a friend, we walked in to have a drink at the bar. We were there in total for under an hour. We were rushed to finish our non alcoholic drinks, and continually asked (even 20 minutes in) do we want another, and once finished (I had one and my friend 2) we were told that other people need the bar stools (it was not reserved) they said that they just wanted other people to sit there. Bearing in mind that there were many empty tables. It is not the busiest of establishments - now I can see why. Very rude. I am unsure if discrimination was taking place, but it very much felt like it. I have never in my life experienced this. We were in complete and utter shock. It was very upsetting. I asked to speak to the manager who came over with stains all over his shirt, and very aggressive distressed man, and he said ‘can you leave as we are turning other people away’. It was insanely unprofessional, and quite unbelievable. Thinking about it, I think they push people to spend more money as they don’t seem to be doing very well. I think they are trying to push alcohol onto their customers, who knows. Avoid at all costs! There are plenty of other places around. I will also be contacting the people who own the space at Coal Drops so that they are aware, and to take this further. Update: After writing this I have since read on Google reviews about so many other people saying that the manager asked them to leave because they were not quick enough to order more food or drinks. I will be contacting customer care and Kings Cross Visitor centre to report this place and its staff. Have added images of who to contact in case anyone else would like to report them also.

Very unpleasant and revolting experience. We came here with my friend, to have a coffee. We’ve been placed at the bar, - after being told that the tables were for food only - which is fine. We ordered 2 teas. And after half an hour, ordered again, a diet soda. The staff came repeatedly- at least 5 times in 30 min..! - to ask us if we were finished with our drinks, and if we’d like to order anything else. The 6th time the waitress came and gave us the bill in a very rude manner without us requesting it. We asked politely why they would give us the bill and if there was any problem. The manager then came , immediately very aggressive when we asked what was the issue- as we’ve ordered 3 drinks in less than 40 minutes - He then literally asked us to leave the place immediately. We were absolutely shocked and couldn’t even believe such behaviour. Never ever had such a bad and disrespectful experience

A restaurant focused on vermouth is an excellent concept, But it's not well executed. Food is average, and there are not many good choices. Surprisingly, the staff don’t make a big deal about the vermouth menu. Service is acceptable, but nothing outstanding. It appears to be more of an outdoor restaurant and is best when the weather is nicer.

When we tried to order, half the things we wanted weren’t available on the menu. When I asked about the cheeses available on the cheese board (as I’m pregnant) no member of staff knew what they were- the duty manager seemed to infer that I should look up the names myself, and eventually suggested I go and ask the chef myself?! She was being so rude - she clearly knew nothing and was being shirty with me about it. I asked her to ask the chef herself - he came over and adequately explained the options, and brought some samples for me to try too, which was nice. When we asked for the bad experience with the food and options to be reflected in the bill, they just said they would remove the tip. I wouldn’t go there again based on the availability of the options and the useless wait staff. They should be trained in the food they serve.

We had drinks and a cheese board. By the end of the meal, when we wanted to pay we never saw the bill and only after leaving the place we realized that we must have been massively overcharged. My friend went to the bar a few days later to ask to see the bill, however she was given an email and was told to write there, which she did three times, and to this day still didn’t receive a reply. We find it bizarre that we never saw the bill and that my friend was never given a copy of the bill when she came to a bar to ask for one (I worked in hospitality industry and know that checks/bills can be easily accessed) and the fact that none of her emails were replied to.

Just terrible. I was in a group of 9, we picked this spot for some breakfast before we were due to get a train. We arrived at around 10.45am ish and our train wasn't until 12, so we thought we had plenty of time. The guy who took our order seemed completely uninterested in his job and I could tell he wasn't writing things down properly. We got our drinks first, the waitress literally spilled half my friends coffee when she placed the cup down and didn't even offer to get her a new one and when she placed the milk on the table my friend asked if it was semi-skimmed to which she said yes (it wasn't, it was oat milk). They missed another friend's drink completely and we had to ask for it twice until they brought it. The food slowly started coming out after being sat for a very long time. I'll add here that half the group got their food, the other half didn't in the end as they simply didn't bring it. I ordered egg on toast with mushrooms and when we asked where my food was they said there weren't any mushrooms left (this is after being sat for at least 30 minutes whilst everyone else got theirs). Two people ordered croissants, they brought one out, then when we chased up the other one they said they'd run out. We ended up leaving as half the group never got their food and they kept bringing us other people's orders. I'm not joking when I say it was the worst breakfast experience I've ever had. Staff had no clue what they were doing and the food that did make it's way to our table was awful as well. Bacon undercooked, stale hard bread, overcooked poached eggs. Avoid this place seriously. Only nice thing here was the coffee. They also made out like they were doing us a favour for not charging us for the food.... which we never got.

Situated in the centre of Coal Drops Yard, it would be easy to walk past this place. A good sized outside seating area with indoor cafe-style seating area.

OK for drinks, but the service for food was so disorganised. There was staff running around not knowing what food was for what tables. When our food did arrive after a number of apologies for the wait, my sausage sandwich was OK, but I thought my partners avocado toast was very measly for the price. Even though we had our food the staff kept bringing more plates of food which wasn't for us.

Last orders were at 8:30. The remainder of our food was ruined by the smell of disinfectant and we weren’t allowed to use the toilet after 9pm and we’re told to use the public ones next door. Disappointing for an expensive meal.

Good to see Vermuteria continuing in the swing, in early September's Indian summer. Great vermouth/gin-influenced cocktails, a supremely broad range of vermouths (including Select, Cynar), Italian Amari, and more. Good range of small plates (hot and cold) and friendly staff, warm in their welcome. Ice cream very welcome, too!

A nice place to stop off for a drink if you are in the area. Central London drinks prices, though!

Had a beer only but liked the place. Service is good and it has a nice outdoor space.

Excellent environment. Food is delicious and service very good. Drinks could have a little more punch to it. Felt a little too sweet.

Lovely cafe/restaurant. Great coffee and a good selection of drinks. Didn't eat here but enjoyed the drinks.

Was quickly served by friendly staff, had a good glass of wine and pasta, can't complain at all. The serving was rather small, which suited me fine however, as I wasn't that hungry.

Great spot to grab a bite, I ate with an Italian and they were very impressed with the flavoursome food. We started with the croquettes and I ate maybe one of the best tiramisu's ever here also!!! Kind attentive staff and it's not too pricey, worth a try if you're in the area 💯

Avoid the crab meat on toasted sourdough - a gloopy paste that has no discernible taste

The place has both indoor and outdoor seating. The environment was good however only one bathroom without separating men / women. No baby changing. These are all okay acceptable. One thing I want to complain was the outrageous price. We ordered some drinks and a crab sandwich to share, £15. You would think £15 would get you a full loaded crab sandwich on a piece of bread. But, I was too positive. The crab meat was as little as could barely cover the surface of the bread. I mean, I know everything has gone up the price over the past 2-3 years but things have to make sense. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of the dish but I am being honest. Just want to maybe ask the restaurant to review the pricing / make of the dish and make it more reasonably priced.

At first i was sceptical about this place, but gave it a try and didnt dissapoint a single bit. One of the best customer service in London, staff was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. I will come back here the next time i stay in London for sure, fully recommend at least trying it out.

From the minute we entered the restaurant to a totally lacklustre welcome we could tell it wasn’t going to be the special night out we had envisaged. The waitress really made us feel like we were a total inconvenience. She didn’t smile once during our visit. Without being personal one other member of staff was a very strange individual and very hard to understand. One main course was really disappointing and tasteless but we were afraid to say anything. If it wasn’t for the fact we were using a voucher that was near the expiry we would have left. Sadly we don’t get to meet up very often and left feeling really deflated. Safe to say we won’t be returning.

Visited as part of a day wandering around London and after a matinee show in the area. Had a Groupon voucher for set meal costing £35. Several of dishes not available from what was already a small choice menu. Appears long-standing issue of "no chips" was again a problem. By the time you add on a £30 bottle of house wine, supplement on the steak and then service charge you done get much change out of £100. Marked as average only and certainly not somewhere I would return. Nice air con restaurant with music which we liked but fairly empty and soulless.

food here is consistently excellent and high quality, but speed of delivery is inconsistent. however, it is always tastes fresh and I always enjoy it. also, the price is reasonable and I feel I get much better value from this than I would something like nandos. the flavours are tasty and the amount of options are really good too.

Wedding anniversary. When we arrived via reception, we asked the way to Isla, a blonde lady standing by the door pointed into the room but said no more. We ventured into the low ceilinged room towards a reception desk but finding no-one else to talk to went back to her and said we had a reservation. She took us to a table with a banquette in the window. After a few minutes we asked if we could move as the banquette was very low. A nice young waiter obliged and we moved to another table in the window with chairs. An older waiter brought water glasses but I asked to return mine as it had a sharp chip to the rim. We started with a margarita. The Ixta menu is small with 3 starters, 3 mains and 3 puds. We ordered the King Prawn Lasagne and Roast Duck Tacos. Portions were quite small, the duck had 3 tiny tacos so we asked for more. Both dishes were good but waiter hurriedly removed the plates with my fork in mid-air. Although the restaurant was near empty, we got the impression we were being hurried. We then ordered the Cashew choco-taco and Plaintain fritters with chocolate caramel sauce, the first was exceptional, the second very sweet; and again the waiter hurriedly removed our plates. This was the first time he conversed properly. 15% service charge unjustified
