Another visit to Pascal Bistro, this time lunch with family and friends celebrating our Golden Wedding Anniversary. Everybody enjoyed the meal which was very well run by Pascal and his staff. Hope to return soon.
Este lugar tiene un precio razonable de comida para llevar con una excelente carta de vinos. El personal es amable y eficiente. Vinimos alrededor de las 3 pm, así que no estaba muy ocupado, me imagino que el ambiente sería agradablemente burbujeante durante las horas pico de servicio. Definitivamente en mi lista de "volver a ir".
We often come here for breakfast and a coffee and the foods top notch.
This week, the elder press team were so lovely and helpful helping me host a baby shower tea at the cafe. The quiche and cake we ordered was incredible and everyone commented on it.
Thank you so much to the team for making the day special to
Had an amazing meal and cocktail at The Ginger Frog.
What a beautiful place to eat, lovely relaxing atmosphere.
We had the garlic mushrooms and Cajun chicken and it was amazing.
Cocktails were spot on too!!
Great service and so reasonable priced and worth every penny.
Will be back soon

I liked that I could feel the Shoreditch vibe by eating outside. The black coffee was strong, but it was delicious.
If you order at the counter, they will bring it to your seat.
The spacious space in the basement where you can use your laptop also looked nice.

Food took at least 25 mins to serve, which was strange as I was the only one in the restaurant at the time. Tasted ok but service is terrible. Staff not friendly and just chit chatting at the back whilst customers are waiting for their order. Also not really worth the money as I spent 12.50 for this very small meal

I don’t usually dwell on poor service, but this experience left a particularly bitter taste.
We arrived at 8:12 PM and were immediately met with pressure from the waiter, who told us the kitchen would be closing in 20 minutes.
From the moment we sat down, we felt rushed—not only with our food order but also when choosing wine. The tone was abrupt, and the atmosphere felt more like a last-minute pit stop than a welcoming dining experience.
In hindsight, we should have left right then, as it was clear from the outset that we weren’t being treated with basic hospitality.
Feeling cornered, we hastily ordered three dishes and a bottle of wine just to avoid missing out. But what followed only added insult to injury.
At 9 PM, four more guests arrived and were allowed to order freely without any mention of time constraints.
When we challenged the waiter about the discrepancy, he denied saying the kitchen was closing in 20 minutes and even falsely claimed we had arrived at 8:30 PM. Only when he checked the system—which clearly showed 8:12 PM—did the timeline become undeniable. Yet even then, he continued to deny ever pressuring us, despite there being three of us who heard him say it clearly.
It was deeply frustrating to be rushed, gaslit, and then dismissed, especially when it became clear that the kitchen was never in danger of closing.
We felt manipulated into ordering quickly for no reason at all.
Fried Baby Squid (£17.00): Lightly battered but visually unappealing—almost blackened.
Grilled Mackerel (£13.00): Well cooked, with a salty sauce and pickled radishes.
Pentolaccia Scoglio: A rich and satisfying seafood pasta; easily the standout dish.
Decent quality and reasonably priced, though we barely had a moment to consider the options.
Despite the good food, the lack of welcome, dishonesty from staff, and unnecessary pressure ruined the evening.
We felt uncomfortable from the moment we arrived and were treated with a complete disregard for the customer experience.
I will not be returning, and I do not recommend this restaurant.
Wow, no words. Food is lovely, however, the special thanks goes to Filippo. He is truly a credit to the company, very attentive and really friendly. The restaurant got a little buzzy and he managed really well by himself running the floor while still being really attentive. Thank you!
So delicious , I had their special set menu for the day: Cá Kho Tộ , Vietnamese Caramelized & Braised Catfish. It was really delicious and the green beans with garlic were so tasty as well.
I actually gave them visit today for the beef Pho as I’ve tried it before but ended up having it as a take away order for the dinner.
Thumbs up and 5 stars from me. Definitely will be giving them a visit nsoon xt time with my family and friends.
