Woolf & Whistle in Camden

Nice pub/restaurent where the atmosphare is the best thing. Quite good food but the nice personal and the atmosphare is the best thing

Their website says its open till 11 30 I can assure you it isn't I went in at 11 15 before I went to my room this bar closes at 11pm they need to change the times on their website

I often meet a friend and we visit this bar that was closed for quite a length of time over lockdown. On Sundays the various is usually empty,with only a few customers. Just spoke to Kurran, the manager of the Woolf and Whistle bar and asked to reserve 5 tables for myself and a group. Kurran said, after speaking with his boss, that 'we' would need to pay £500 to reserve these tables = the previous day Kurran had told me £100. Informed Kurran that this was outrageous and their must be something wrong with his boss for suggesting such a ridiculous high amount of money for 10 of us. Evidently they dont want any customers. 😢 Oh well... 😐

We stopped in here for a drink and were horrified to discover mice running around the floors amongst customers. We alerted both the bar staff and hotel reception staff who seemed extremely disinterested, laughed about it and were pretty rude. We were advised it was London and there was nothing they could do. I expected much better service than this and left feeling extremely disappointed and disgusted. Will not be returning as it's one thing having mice running around but additionally having rude staff and poor customer service is inexcusable.

Had to kill a bit of time and stopped in for a drink, fully expecting inflated hotel prices. Was very surprised at the good value of the (large) glass of wine I had, French and drinkable. Friendly barman, happy to chat. Bar not particularly busy so very comfortable, but this was a Monday evening. Weekends might be different! Can't comment on food, or other hotel amenities

Congratulations to the young staff in this busy bar on a Friday night for making sure the whole experience was enjoyable

The Australian immigrant barmaid in here has no customer service skill and doesn’t know how things work in the UK. You’re only a barmaid in a crappy cheap hotel, you can’t even do that well. I pity you.

Nice bar snack n meals although bar gets very busy at weekends the food is good and tasty lots of choice

We are a polite and diverse group of people in terms of age – 40 plus, ethnicity – Israeli, Turkish, American, Italian, Spanish, etc, and of course British, and we meet fortnightly at the Woolf. Mr Walduck and Mr Smith appear to condone the behaviour of a manager who acted with hostility towards us. We absolutely did nothing to offend the manager who simply took it upon himself to act aggressively and not honour the promises made by Imperial Hotel to correct this man’s unacceptable behaviour. We were previously loyal customers of The Woof and Whistle Pub at Imperial Hotels. I wrote to Alexander Walduck, (owner of Imperial Hotels, with a hotel empire worth nearly half a billion pounds) concerning the disgraceful and offensive behaviour that myself and other customers sustained from a senior manager who worked at the Woolf and Whistle, Imperial hotels. The member of staff overcharged us, behaved inhospitably to us, and caused embarrassment when we visited this business on three occasions. I was led to believe that Mr Walduck asked for the member of staff's behaviour (it was this serious) to be investigated. The outcome of an investigation was that the beverage manager, at the Woolf and Whistle, was to behave professionally and decently. However on subsequent visits we continued to be treated terribly and to my amazement the Woolf decided to allow this rogue manager to continue in the job. We will not visit the Woolf again until the senior management sort out the very rude and unwelcoming senior manager.

I ordered at the bar, requesting one dish as a starter, and another as main. The menu offers a choice of chunky chips or fries but I was told on ordering, that chips are chips and that there was no difference in what you got. I ordered Calamari as a starter and the steak as a main. I could not of been clearer. However my main turned up with my starter a few minutes later! The steak was chewy, and the chips were no better than poor oven chips! Pretty poor overall. Chef sent his ‘apologies’ but really this is basic stuff... overall, the restaurant/bar looks the part but is pretty poor in reality. Really disappointed. All shirt and no trousers....

We had a drink here on our first evening and Sunday afternoon before heading to the station. Very clean and modern and not to overpriced (for London)...good wifi signal. (for guests)

I always thought of this place as the bar at Tavistock and didn't know it has a name of its own. The decor is quite pleasant and it is a spacious lounge. I ate there several times during my stay and the food, well, what can one say about bar grub? Best to wash the food down with a glass of wine. The staff always pleasant, even with children who just wanted icecream. So if you are in Bloomsbury and need to rest your feet, talk to friends, have a glass of wine, this is it.

Хороший бар. По вечерам приходила на бокальчик London Pride. Уютный интерьер, приятная беседа с постояльцами отеля, недолго возвращаться в номер:-) Хороший выбор когда устал от долгих прогулок по любимому городу.

Nice venue to start and finish an evening. Efficient staff, reasonable prices and a pleasant atmosphere even with Man City fans down for the semifinals.

Could do with better lighting, but no complaints about food (good) and drink (great prices). A good meeting place.

A nice relaxing place to have a gin and tonic and a snack after a long day on your sightseeing around London

I visit the Woolf and Whistle on a regular basis and I must say that the staff, food and overall service is of a high standard. The Woolf is modern in its decor and Ankit,the manager, Kelly-Anne, Suzanne (supervisor of neighbouring Indian buffet restaurant) and...

I had a decent time at this hotel bar. The atmosphere is nice, but the food for my afternoon tea wasn't spectacular. The sandwich bread was sort of stale and the desserts were kind of skimpy for the cost. I wonder if the drinks are...

As a regular visitor of this establishment, I can vouch for its pleasant decor and drinks selection. There are some good beers on tap and the wines and spirits are also okay. The food however, leaves a lot to be desired. Almost everything appears to...

Staying at the Tavistock hotel, I came to the Woolf and Whistle for a drink before heading out into London. The London Pride on cask, whilst being £4.50 a pint (normal for London) was stunning, the nicest I’ve tasted. The staff were attentive, friendly and...

We were on a self-guided tour of Bloomsbury and at the end of it discovered that one of the sites we were looking for no longer existed but had become a hotel. The eponymous Woolf and Whistle is situated on the site of Virginia and...

We visited during our stay at the Tavistock and ordered chicken pie meal each. The food came quick and considering no-one was eating I did wonder how the pie came so quick and so hot, maybe kept under lamp or microwaved. This came with chips...

I was staying at the Tavistock Hotel in which the Woolf and Whistle is located, so it seem only natural to spend some time there. Nice, clean, and with comfortable seating. Enjoying Tavistock Square through the windows. Nice place.

Eat in the bar on our last night at the Travistock. Food was the normal range of bar food at a resonable price. Mu only complain would be the mashed looked and tasted like instant mash.

It came fast and tasted good and that was all we wanted that evening. We both had the chicken and ham pie and a cold glass of beer and prosecco.

Just recently had a sandwich lunch here. Service prompt - and the turkey and bacon sandwich was very nice indeed - generous helping of meat with a small garnish of salad. Good range of beers - and ubiquitous TV sport channel! You can always sit...

We ate here twice The steaks were only average quality but well priced The thing to take here are the curries different every night and very good value The wine list was poor but a good selection of beers Whiskies terrible selection

we had lunch here on a Monday and the place was very quiet for a working day lunchtime, the food was very good, freshly made and the portion size was good and not at all expensive, I didn't catch the name of the girl who...

The Woolf and Whistle was fairly nice, a good atmosphere, and the service was very helpful and friendly, but the real highlight was my meal. I ordered the fish and chips, and it was enormous. The fish was huge, and tasted delicious, and there was...

The bar has a good selection of beers, wines and spirits and the staff are very good - service was quick each time I went to the bar. There seemed to be a problem with charging my drinks to my room as the system wouldn't...

Just normal ordinary hotel bar, not good, not bad. Nothing special. Hotel prices, personnel ok. Closing at 12:00PM

Lovely place to relax and its even better since the refurb. Great for pub grub, or just to relax with a glass of wine or a coffee. They have a decent area to sit outside too.

Well they have spent a lot on this new look. Nicely laid out tables and very comfy chairs. Plenty of choice of draught beers and spirits. Great too visit at the end of the day before bed. Staff where nice and friendly. dont hesitate to...

I went into this bar each of my three night stay at The Tavistock Hotel. It has recently been redecorated. The bar prices are very reasonable for London and there is a wide selection of bar snacks, food and nibbles and the surroundings are very...

Used to come here before its gentrification and always loved it but they have snazzed it up but kept the Art Deco design, vibe and reasonable prices considering it comes under the Tavistock hotel. Handy for snacks, bar meals or just coffee or a decent...

The sandwiches were good and reasonably priced. The main meals average. Sausage and mash consisted of 2 sausages and packet mash. We asked for vegetables with meal and we were bought a bowl of olives, the bar waitress did not understand what we wanted. The...

Spacious comfortable lounge bar, just as well because I was able to get away from the large mute TV at one end showing sport with local radio playing loud music over it, but still a nice bar with pleasant staff

Vi valde fish and chips till lunch och öl att dricka till, det smakade bra men det tog ganska lång...

Lovely bar with decent choice of alcohol with a cocktail menu. Staff were always very helpful. Plenty of comfortable seating in the bar area and there was some outdoor seating for nice day or smokers.

This is a really cute little pub. The bartender is good, and the seating is comfortable. Also, the play on Virginia Woolf's name is very appreciated. The location is in the Tavistock Hotel right across from Tavistock Square where there is a bust of Woolf....
