The best restaurants in London

A fantastic addition to the high street, great variety of tapas and all very tasty. I like the changing menu, always something new to try. Friendly staff too and good atmosphere.

I was curious about this bar. The reviews and articles made it seem like my thing. I found it a rather unfortunate waste of time and money. Normally, the lighting in bars isn't that big of a deal for me. I love a dark, moody spot. But, I mean, this is Claridge's. It just appeared as if someone forgot to pay the lecky or flip on the switches at the beginning of their shift. What a disappointment. And it's not dark and sultry like a secret cigar and gin bar from the Prohibition era. It's just plain dark. You can't even fully appreciate the décor and design. It didn't create mood; it killed it. Reading the menu is a fun exercise in figuring out how bad your eyesight is, and if you're at the age yet to pull out a mobile phone light to read. (That said, the menu is quite nice. I liked how it was organised and seemed to make good sense.) [The photos I have posted are heavily edited to lighten them, except one and even that has my phone adjusting automatically for low light.] The drinks were like water. Again, I am aware of the standard pricing in these establishments and was fully prepared for it. However, I want to at least taste a little bit of alcohol, even in a long drink. I want to taste *something* other than soda water and lemon. I barely even got a hint of ginger -- in a Penicillin riff! Instead, what I feel like I received was a £25 lemon La Croix poured into a glass. There are similar luxury hotel bars that manage to create good value experiences. This just isn't one of them. The atmosphere was off, the drinks were laughably childish, and the vibes were dull. The server was okay, but again, nothing special. When I'm at Claridge's, I want special. Otherwise, what's the point?

Been going here for over 30 years wherever I am in the uk I always come here for my Chinese takeaway. I now live in Essex came here last Saturday and eat my dinner by the Thames amazing food thank you.

the lady was so sweat excellent customer service absolutely stunning, outstanding, outstanding

Always a friendly greeting. Even though I moved away from the area I still got back. The food is always excellent, wouldn't go anywhere else. Highly recommend

Stopped in for a drink and ended up having the best side car i’ve had in a while and a fantastic chat with the bartender, alex. lovely way to spend an evening

Lived around Clapham Junction for a couple years but R Place is hands down the place to come for fun cocktails. Staff are super friendly and accommodating and the drinks menu is as good as it gets!!

Had cocktails here the other week and it was great. Nice atmosphere and well priced. Will be back.

The first micropub in South East London, formerly a electrical wholesalers and a garden centre. Rustic interior, intimate traditional old style pub. Three cask beers on offer served in lined glasses, ensuring a full pint. A good selection of still ciders are available and a small selection of wine and spirits.

I work as a driver so I stop for food wherever i can on my route, today i stopped at Arthurs Cafe and i can say it was all spot on, the ladies in there where polite and friendly and while i only had a small order to go the food was perfect and reasonably priced, will definitely use again if i’m in the area! 👍🏻

Very nice delicious food just like food meant to taste, the big restaurant I used to go to, I stoped, because Karachi wala taste the best. Takeaway is the best option. 10% service charge if dine in. But place is not fancy to eat in. But food is delicious.

Full of locals enjoying coffee and chats. Friendly staff

I highly recommend this restaurant to the Public as the place is very clean with lovely Chinese decor.The food is excellent and the Service likewise.The staff are also very helpful and friendly.Food is also halal so it caters for all.My hubby and I are now regulars as this restaurant is 5/5.

Going here was a big mistake, Blaze N Hades Burger: The burger meat was horrible and smelly , I really dislike wasting food but I was not able to push it down so had to leave it. Very poor Quality, Strawberry shake: No real strawberries, It seemed was drinking oil, The cream one is definitely not fresh and smelly. They probably used some cheap ice cream. On the menu, it says that the sake is made with fresh strawberries and strawberry gelato, but this is probably the biggest scam in the history of shakes, I could not drink it. I paid £16.74 for this meal, not worth a penny

Came for a breakfast and a coffee just to be completely ignored. The only person serving seemed to be surprisingly busy, although there were only 2 other customers inside. Even after acknowledging that we are waiting to be served, she was more interested in chatting with the regular customer then serving us.
