VQ Bloomsbury in Camden

We stayed in the St. Giles Hotel this week which has direct access into the VQ restaurant, and we love the food and staff *especially the ladies and Doine who was our main server* so much, that we had all of our main meals there everyday. I highly recommend the Spagetti Bolognaise. Ask for Parmesan as it makes the pasta even tastier, and they will switch the spaghetti for penne if you ask, and the NY Cheesecake and the Salted Caramel Icecream are mouthwatering. My husband loves the Eggs Benedict and the Sticky Toffee pudding the most. Prices are reasonable. Restaurant is clean, tidy and spacious. Food is clean, tasty, decent sized portions, and well presented. All of the staff and their service are very friendly and a joy to be around. We'll see you all again end of May 2025. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Would give minus 5 stars if possible. Unfriendly bouncer. I was out and about, I was finally happy to have found a restaurant/bar, then I go in and the guy stands in front of me "what do you want?", then I answer that I'm just looking around. Then he just reveals that it doesn't work that way. I left the juice shop. How is it supposed to work in a bar/restaurant? And why does a bouncer stop guests? Are you not allowed to consume here?

Top service, good food, I keep going there and I love it. Open 24hrs and all day breakfast which I love.

Vasu was exceptional in his customer service, Managers should be extremely proud to have an amazing staff member, example of amazing skills in the food outlets. Very friendly and funny man.

A freshly cooked tasty meals. Excellent bacon and mushroom omelette and classic eggs royale. It's a good location with a friendly and speedy service.

We popped in as we were seeing a show close by. I have to say I did not have high hopes when you see 24 hours cafe signage, however I was pleasantly surprised. They have a relatively wide menu from very filling meals to light bites. Reasonable bar and wine selction too.

Actually a really good restaurant I was very surprised indeed. The food was good the staff where nice and it was very convenient for my theatre trip. The portion sizes where just right and the food came quite quickly. I'd eat here again if I was nearby as its convenient and nice.

expensive, mid food, definitely microwaved, coke was flat because they left the bottles opened, they had a SUGAR shaker on the table instead of salt...2.50 sit down charge as well but they tell you at the door. going in the early hours of the day means theres dodgy ppl in there which isnt the places fault but when someones harassing a girl when ur waiting in line it just puts u off a bit. ur better off waiting for other things to open.

My partner and I went here for a late night drink and a small snack. The cocktails were amazing, the food was equally as good but the atmosphere was lacking for a Friday night. I have no idea why it was so empty when every part of it was delightful.

An excellent breakfast for a very fair price, even without hotel discount!

Brilliant place & open 24hrs most of the week. What more can you ask for. I'll definitely be going back.

Kicked out for no reason by chef he'd probably spit in the food anyways so good thing we left

We picked here due to it being convenient to the Dominion Theatre and you could reserve a table online. Good variety of dishes across the menu and a bar. We enjoyed the food which was served with a smile. Atmosphere was lacking but did the job. Open 24hour day. Have noticed on this trip to London a lot of restaurants automatically adding a discretionary service charge of 12.5%.

We come here after a few hours of salsa dancing next door. Service very quick for so many people ordering!!

We’ve been twice today for breakfast and then again for our evening meal, the staff were excellent with myself and my Dad, breakfast was tasty and filled us up for the day without emptying our wallet and this evening our meal was awesome,again the staff were very friendly and looked after us both. Special shout out to the manager, Leon ( I’m rubbish with names) I think he was called, he put up with my rubbish jokes and barely smirked at my big beetroot bonce after a day in a he sunshine! The breakfast team set us up for our hot touristy day and the finished it off sublimely. Thanks guys

Had a nice time there and some delectable Fish & Chips.

We were a 4 and all had the exact same dish. Pancakes with fruits, maple syrup and bacon. The fruits were very very thin slices of strawberry and banana and a few blueberries. The bacon was supposed to be crispy but it was so rubbery that we couldn't chew or swallow it. When told, staff did bring us a bowl of bacon that had not been 'crispified' yet. It was much better but not better than what I make at home. The pancakes were nice but again, not anything amazing. We all had a bottle.of water each and spent £67.50 total. The servers are great, attentive and move fast.

After several days in London, my husband and I were craving a classic English breakfast. So we randomly entered this place where we had a spectacular English breakfast and, I might add, finally got served. Mrs. Cristina was very kind and accompanied us and advised us with such kindness and professionalism.

Was a good experience, good cooked spaghetti Bolognese but the minced meat wasn't as God as the one your dad or grandad cooked when you were a kid on a family party night or visit

What a great little find just off the high street. Decent breakfast, well priced, and open 24/7

charged 12 pounds for the tiniest amount of food i’ve ever seen

Gorgeous food and drink amazing service

Service was lovely, we were made to feel really welcome and comfortable. The food was just alright though, my loaded chips were a bit burnt and quite hard (should've taken a picture). I'd go again but only after other options had been exhausted.

This restaurant is attached to the St. Giles London Hotel. It touts 24 x 7 hours and breakfast all day. I popped in for a quick bite. After being seated, it took a long time before someone came by to ask for my order. I had a Tropical Daiquiri, Club Sandwich, and Sparkling Water. I had to wait a while for the water to be delivered to the table, and even longer before the drink was served. The Club sandwich was bland. I enjoyed the Daiquiri.

When I looked at the receipt, our table had a strange charge of £2.50 per person, with no explanation. I asked and apparently this is a "mandatory service charge", but on top of that we also had a discretionary service charge. Seems like a sneaky way of extorting more money from customers

Amazing find as freelancer pucka little resting spot between shifts at all hours

So this is not about the food although I do think it would be nice because I can smell it🤤. But I wanted to thank the young man that is working in there for letting me use the toilet I am one of the bus drivers that park outside of the VQ and I have asked before a lady and she didn't allow me and I really needed to use the toilet.. this young man didn't even hesitate he used his humanity in him and said "yh go ahead" thank you thank you thank you so much this happened on 13th of June approximately 0636am

Went here for breakfast with my partner and mother in law. My partner ordered eggs benedict on ham. The egg was terribly undercooked, and the white was very snotty, so we politely asked the waitress for a replacement with a cooked egg. The waitress was polite and took the dish to the chef with our feedback. But we heard the chef saying that "they should've asked for a well-done egg if they wanted that" in an angry voice! Funny enough, the second eggs benedict that they cooked for my partner, which was supposed to be well done, was still underdone, and the eggs were too runny with snotty white.

Not true. They are not open 24 hours. I was just there at 5am on a Wednesday morning. Really wanted to try it out.

I went in to use the facilities, went to the men's by mistake

After club vibes for me LOL. Good service nice staff, decent food. They make a decent steak 😊

Found this after leaving drinks at nearby Coral Room/Bloomsbury hotel. Was hungry for something late at midnight and stumbled on VQ on my walk back to hotel. Great staff, nice modern diner look, full bar & varied upscale diner/bistro menu….

coming to VQ, I ordered two bowls of pasta. One with chicken as a topping. In the chicken pasta I ordered was a chunk of pork or beef in it which was raw not only the fact that the pork/beef was raw, but also if it was pork I eat pork due to religious beliefs. Considering the fact that it was raw make this an even worse matter I would not suggest going to this place if you want a high dining experience as this place prefers quantity over quality. the quality of the food is not the best and I’ll give it a rating a 2/10. on top of that they changed the plate of pasta and had the audacity to charge me for it as if nothing happened. Adding onto this I was also charged service charge after the waiter looked at the raw meat and said ‘its chicken, no?’ When he could clearly see it was a chunk of red meat with bone in it, will not be returning.

Great breakfast. Good value. A special mention to Romanian/Italian lady working there. Such a great efficient service.

Food and atmosphere was neat, yet the undisclosed forced 12.5% service charge was pretty off-putting. Also, beware of additional charges before and after certain times, 24 hours at a cost.

The VQ Restaurant is smart inside, close to Tottenham Court Road station. The Dominion Theatre is nearby. The food was excellent, as was the service. Myself and two others had lunch, drinks/cocktails and deserts before seeing Sister Act at the Dominion Theatre, a 3-4 minute walk to the theatre. We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would definitely re-visit again. 10/10 for food, deserts, drinks and service 😄

The thieves running the place try to impose a £2.50 cover charge per head that isn’t disclosed upon entry

Not expensive. Food is good. Friendly waiter. Good service. Great location. We did not wait long for drinks or for the food.

Had breakfast 3 mornings in a row. Love the option of having a smaller version of the English breakfast. The food is consistently good, the place in clean & the staff is attentive. Convenient location & 24 hour service. Many thanks to the staff especially Christina & Doina for their hospitality. Nan

A nice café bar with a wide selection of dishes, good service, and apparently open 24 hours. Reasonable prices.

Visited two mornings, one after the other, as our first breakfast was superb. There were six of us and we were accomodated very well, by very attentive and pleasant staff. All of our breakfasts were superb.....very tasty, well cooked fresh food. Would definitely recommend and visit again.

Such a convenient place, we had breakfast and the lady who helped us was a sweetheart. Wheelchair accessible and near British Museum and other attractions.

My favourite place to eat in London! Food is always amazing, great food selection and wide drink selection. Always perfectly cooked and great waiting time. The vibes are always brilliant inside as well, very clean and staff are always friendly and welcoming. Perfectly placed for British museum and Tottenham Court Road. Nice window drinks area as well. 24H so amazing on new year eve Will definitely be returning (as always)

The breakfast was delicious and the staff was incredibly nice. We felt very welcome. Many thanks to Doina, Christina and Vivian for the great service. You are doing an amazing job. 👍🏻👏🏻

Great breakfast and the service was brilliant. Hidden gem 💎 ✨️

Nice, if not imaginative, food.

I had a great meal last night at VQ, the wings can be offered bbq and the dirty fries are sooo good

Quite horrible restaurant, they serve cold, we came in a group and they were missing a plate that they didn't want to serve us and one person in the group didn't eat so I don't recommend it!!

The waiters are poorly polite, forget a dish and don't question it, I absolutely do not recommend this restaurant

School group with reservation. When we arrive, the Fish and Chips are already on the table, it is cold, the scoop of ice cream is served. It's slaughter, the staff starts clearing out before the students have even finished. VQ chains groups together like cattle.

very urgent nor polite services forgotten dishes frozen meals

C'est de l'abattage, assiettes servies froides, débarrassées à peine finies, personnel désagréable. Mon groupe scolaire a été traité comme du bétail.

The place was really pretty they treated us like animals we had 20 minutes to eat and when we arrives the plates where already on the table and cold our teacher even didn’t get a plate they get rid off some plates of person that went to the toilet the only thing which was good was the ice cream and even if not everyone finished their place they told is to get out this place welcome many groupe just for business and it’s not acceptable!

Had breakfast here best fluffy omelettes great coffee, great service . Few days later had dinner after theatre great atmosphere again great food and service ! Plus open 24 /7

Passing by this restaurant, one quote at the entrance from the famous writer Ernest Hemingway “ALWAYS DO SOBER WHAT YOU SAID YOU'D DO DRUNK. THAT WILL TEACH YOU TO KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT” made me smile. This was a reason to “try” this place. The first impression is good. The restaurant is cozy, everything in the interior fits perfectly together, the music is not loud. The waiter Gaddam served me quickly. He helped me with the choice of wine, and also advised me to try teriyaki salmon, since I said that I like fish. Amazing presentation and taste of the dish, it was very tasty! I couldn’t resist and treated myself to an equally delicious vanilla cheesecake. Also thanks to the manager who made sure I liked everything! There is complete consensus in terms of the quality of the restaurant. I'll be back soon…

Food is horrible, i order an hamburger it was terrible, the staff smelled bad, and i paied 5£ for a water, the meat had white stuff inside it and the lecctuse wasnt washed

Great value for money next to the British Museum. The servers are exceptionally kind.

Buen servicio Los postres son muy ricos Atienden rápido La pasta es rica, el pan con ajo muy sabroso Fish n’ chips Plato grande de buen sabor

Great food for a good price in london. Definitely recommend! Round the corner to the dominion theatre to, so a great location.

Horrible à l aide la table pu help , glace granuleuse, sableuse. L eau à un goût de javel , les petits pois n étaient pas cuits .

Very modern feel. Good service. Open very late / 24hrs.

Nice place. Grabbed a coffee with a partner

Absolutely awful. We went as thought it was part of St Giles Hotel. Where to start.. lager is served in ale pint glasses so does not have any life in it and staff cannot comprehend the difference glasses make or presentation, served a half in a tumbler!!! Then swapped drink to a Magri glass but lager flat by then and didnt even have the sense to liven it up! Food is absolutely disgusting burger buns are stale! Staff attitude is so poor its like a return of Faulty Towers they smile and think its funny you complain. Then to add insult they want to charge you 12.5% discretionary service charge but don't mention it. This place deserves nobodies business!!!

Food was alright for the price but The burger was tough and fell apart when bitten into. Whilst eating we kept getting stared at by the waitresses almost as though they were waiting on us to hurry and finish up quickly and take our plates. At a restaurant you’re meant to feel at ease and enjoy the food, take your time. But i felt as though I had to eat quickly and be gone

Great spot for breakfast! Opened 24hrs

Really enjoyed my first visit. Great friendly service and nice vibe. My small English Breakfast was absolutely superb 👌 👏

Oh my gosh, these people are just absolutely perfect! I’ve been to hundreds of restaurants in my life (as you can see from my history of Google reviews) and I’ve never in all my life experienced such amazing customer service. The servers cannot do enough for you. They are there to cater to your every need. Me and my date went for a lowkey Valentine’s evening meal, and when we got there it was quite empty and then it started becoming quite busy so I thought maybe the servers would become more distracted at that point and wouldn’t be so attentive but they were still on call for us for every single thing. The food was lovely (not perfect but nice). Even up until the point when we were leaving, the security guard was just so amazing to us. I would literally come here for every single dinner date just for the customer service. Unbelievable! Thank you VQ, you smashed it 🫵🏽✨

We came as a group for dinner with a set menu given the number of people. So far everything is normal. In terms of service, it was expeditious. We were at a table of four people. As soon as someone has finished, their plate is taken away to bring them the rest. If we start at the same time, we're not sure we'll finish at the same time. The fish & chips weren't great. Everything on the plate seemed industrial and frozen. One thing is certain, for a future stay in London, I will not come back here.

Vasu has been 10/10. He is an absolute legend. Excellent service. I will come back because of him

It was a late evening meal (11pm) of fish, chips and garden peas. Food tasted good, I would have preferred chunky chips as opposed to fries, but other than that okay. Staff very friendly.

So, the classic 12oz burger was the worst burger I ever had, small buns, 2 patties that were well well well done, and 3 pieces of tomato. I knew right away that the burger will be mediocre when 2 of us received 1 complementary fries.

This was a bit of a lucky find when we needed a quick Pit Stop. Service was friendly, and what we ordered was nice. The space itself is fine, but slightly odd. Over all an acceptable place to eat.

The food is nice, just a nice place to grab food if you’re hungry after the club or late night activity. Service is good, food is average. I’ve tried the salmon pasta, which I loved! But they’ve removed it from the menu. However the salmon and sweet potato is good too.

Very friendly staff and tasty food, quick service and good menu covering a lot of staple dishes so there’s something for everyone! Coffee was also great! Will be returning

Great food at a reasonable price. Good choice and quality. Thank you

I'm coming for breakfast The employees are busy They said they came at closing time. The sign outside the window says 24 hours. Is it cleaning time? It's time for staff to change. I ask for your understanding 7 o'clock local time

This is a 24hr breakfast restaurant that I adore. They do not just do breakfast all day and night but other foods too and alcohol. This has been a favourite spot for my friend and I to meet several times a year as one is North and one is South. Great service, great food and amazing cocktails.

Ordered full English, came out tepid. Bacon was awful quality for the price. Sent it back as I didn’t want to eat a cold English breakfast. It was returned again hot except the 2 sausages were cold. Fed up with the waiting, I told the waitress and said I’d had enough and would eat it without the sausage and to charge me for a small breakfast instead.

Late night bar with cocktails and even food, just off of Tottenham Court Road. Friendly, clean, surcharge for late night food and safe. Good atmosphere.

Great place all hours of the day

Had the veggie breakfast (smaller size). Really enjoyed it and the staff were great too.

Was going to a show at Dominion theatre. Pouring rain and miserable night. Had arranged to meet friends beforehand. Found this gem by chance. Lovely vegan burger, great fries. A good virgin Bloody Mary and coffees too. Wonderfully friendly staff and a nice vibe. Really glad I stumbled into it!

Fui para probar el english breakfast sin hacer fila. Vale la pena, está muy bueno. También probé los benedictinos y estaban muy bien. A mí me gustan los cafés helados y la verdad la porción es muy pequeña. Para el precio que tienen, podrían ser cafés más grandes. El personal es muy atento y encantador.

Louis is such a vibe, perfect memory, great customer service and a real pleasure to chat to.

Très bon service et très bonne cuisine, bon tarif

Delicioso, menú para toda la familia y excelente atención.

Wow! Such a nice surprise, I did get back to try again that menu, breakfast all day and the service... SUPER FRIENDLY AND AWESOME. You have to come and try it! And I am serious!! I will get back.

Sadly not 24h open... Especially frustrating after the Darts Worldcup.

Ended up having 4 meals here over my two day visit to London - lunch twice, breakfast and dinner! Outstanding food (vegan), attentive friendly service, clean and good music playing in the background. Very happy that I found this place. Open 24 hours so also convenient!

Any time we go to London we eat here. Its quick friendly service, great tasting food and well priced

Experiência boa, principalmente porque a maioria dos restaurantes na cidade fecham cedo. Consegui comer neste que estava aberto.

Me sirvieron mal el menú y luego dijeron que fue mi culpa por no decirlo

Nice dinner style cafe with healthy smoothies

We were belgian tourists coming just for a drink 2 days ago. One of us finished by eating some carbonara, seeing meals leaving and good smells. It was not exceptionnal but it was great enough! Workers were really great and kind, especially the bartender. She was sorry for the noise because of a xmas event from a big group of people. I recommend this place for sure.

Add 5£ for spinach and 5£ of service fee 50£ for 2 salads and diet coke

Don't be fooled by the pricing on the outside window. Prices double at night. What a rip off. Don't recommend. The server was very sweet at least. There's also a 2.50 cover charge they don't tell you about. What a scam. Never again! Should be ashamed!

1 hablan varios idiomas (inglés, castellano, italiano...) Cosa escasa en Londres 2 te aconsejan q comer preguntando q te apetece antes 3 la camarera aparte del buen servicio por consejo,,, más agradable simpática y atenta no la hay Y estaba rico tanto el costillar como la ensalada con pollo, aguacate, huevo, bacon,,,y el helado del postre estaba buenisimo Nos ha gustado y pensamos volver si o sí Es tranquilo el ambiente Sitios así, gustan y MUCHO
