The best restaurants in London

A busy, buzzy atmosphere. We had the early theatre menu. Good portion sizes.

Muy buena comida. La experiencia se vio ligeramente empañada por las vibraciones del camarero cuando pedí pagar en la caja en lugar de a través de la aplicación que viene con un cargo adicional. ¡Lo habrías hecho aunque te hubiera pedido que te quitaras el cargo por servicio!

A long anticipated visit turned out to be extremely disappointing. We were there mid-week, mid-afternoon when it wasn’t particularly busy. However we waited quite a while to be served. Drinks (tea and champagne) arrived after a bit of a wait and the hugely anticipated cheesecake didn’t arrive at all. Having seen another couple arrive after us, be served, eat, drink and leave and still no sign of the cheesecake I eventually managed to catch someone’s eye and asked they simply cancel the order as we had to leave. To be fair the manageress who came over and spoke to us was extremely apologetic but the excuse that they were short-staffed fell short of reasonable given that at one point I looked over to the counter and saw four staff stood chatting. Poor service, grubby menus made me wonder if Mr Alba ever visits the place that has his name over the door. The place falls well below the standard one would expect. Sadly disappointed.

We have visited the tea rooms on many occasions, this time with family. The corned beef and potato pie was yummy, as was the crab sandwich. Friendly staff. Good service and reasonable price. Would definitely recommend.

Maybe there are a lot of kids during the holidays, the environment is comfortable, the food is relatively expensive but it's ok 😊

Lovely deli food! I tried the New Yorker and loved it

Fantastic food and service. We can’t wait to come back this is our second visit the food is so delicious and an excellent choice

Phenomenal traditional Punjabi curry Excellent support for gluten free and wonderful service . Couldn't have been better .

Really nice environment, friendly staff and lovely food

Great for craft beer lovers. Good range of the breweries own beers supplemented by a few guest ales. We didn't but if you want to eat they have an arrangement with a local pizza delivery service

Got a 14", 10 slices of tandoori chicken halal pizza for £10. It's going to become our go-to pizza place from now on. ❤️

My pizza comes damaged all pizza and I didn’t receive my money refund :(

Nice little pub garden at the back. Three ales from Shere brewery on despite being in the middle of cellar refurb. Good service.

Few visits to this restaurant over recent months, located on the oval parade of shops in Sidcup. Essential to book as it’s always busy. Traditional Portuguese and Spanish style dishes (tapas and huge mains!). All good quality and promptly served even when the restaurant is full, good and very reasonably priced wine list, owner Is super friendly and great to see a local restaurant booming. Highly recommended

Wonderful English breakfast at reasonable price! The only problem was that on the menu it was written coffee was included in the breakfast price, but they made us pay separately for it. I give 4/5 to the location rather than 5/5 just because they kept the door open and it was a little bit too cold for me (march in London is not so hot to keep a door open, but it’s just a personal opinion!) Apart from this, everything was fine and I strongly recommend it!
