Went for a birthday celebration. Our usual dining preference is a definite cuisine with homestyle cooking and no pretension. Once a year or so we do a fine dining option. She is vegetarian, I am less fussy. I am a good home cook, she works in the restaurant trade and we are sympathetic to current difficulties. We didn’t need to be so here; OK so I usually blench at the sight of a man tweezering food and waitstaff that serves the first course with “Let’s start our journey”,; it often signals a night of pretension and not much else, but this was excellent cooking and service to back it up. There is a £65 four course menu and a £85 tasting menu incl a veg option. We had the 4 course. Yes the portions are small, its not quite the ‘bag of chips on the way home’ scenario but its not gluttony either and ‘langoustine’ is exactly what it says. One langoustine, £15 additional option, doubtless because of the dab of caviar on the top of it, but it was the most perfectly cooked specimen I have ever had. They don’t travel well and often past their best before they arrive at a kitchen. The brioche melted in the mouth, the risotto was al dente but not raw and the parmesan crisp on top of it had obviously taken a lot of work, a sea bream ceviche was seriously fresh and beautifully balanced. The monkfish delicate and moreish. The wine list is expensive but that’s how it is these days – deal with it. The (presumably) head chef with the tweezers had obviously put in a lot of hard work in prep before he picked them up. Watching the kitchen staff in the open kitchen you saw zero macho heroics and a lot of surefooted care. The room wasn’t full all night and so I cannot vouch for the noise level past that, but mercifully no-one had turned up a ‘curated’ playlist. Service was attentive without being obsequious; you don’t usually get a recommendation for a Ukrainian ‘shots bar’ at the post dinner chat – we will check it out on a less refined evening. Really enjoyed it, you would be hard pressed to find better at this style of cooking and certainly not at this price level. Definitely worth a visit. Damn fine stuff.

Sad and bad experience here on a sunday for the roast. Very sloppy cooking. Unedible caluflower cheese, poor qaulity sausages, tasteless cabbage, avarge Y-pudding, tough meat in the Hammer, off tasting carrots, overcooked brocolli stems, only good thing was the duck fat roasted potatoes and the above par gravy. This place is all social media hype. After just having paid 300 pounds I was asked by the waitress to give them online review so she "would get paid extra, I get paid more when customers give a review." Then I was handeld a card with a qr-code. Sorry? I just spend a lot of money for substandard food and service and now you want me to do your marketing for you and on top af that make sure your staff are paid a decent wage by doing so? A sad, disgrace of "hospitality". Shame on you people. Go elsewhere.

Friendly. Not busy at 3.30pm on a Thursday . . .! Only Fuller's London Pride on cask, but well kept.

Curry in a Pub. What more could you ask for? Even my in-laws over from Canada (who hate curry) stated how Marvelous the food was.

This is a great pub / hotel in an excellent location, only a 5 minute walk to Wandsworth Town railway station where there numerous frequent trains to London Waterloo, which only takes about 10 minutes. The staff are great, very friendly. The rooms are comfortable. There is an 'honesty' minibar in the room, well stocked. With it being a pub there is a chance to relax after a day sightseeing before going out again, or when you get back in the evening. I have to comment on the breakfast...it was the biggest I've ever seen, well cooked and presented...if you have this you won't need to have lunch...the scrambled eggs were the best I've tasted!
