The best restaurants serving British food in London

We met with friends because of the restaurant's proximity to Farringdon. We started off seated outside but as it got colder and then started raining we moved indoors The restaurant has a great atmosphere and it was a shame that on a Friday evening there were so few diners Our server was really good, cheerful and chatty We had started with glasses of house white - it was so good we asked to see what it was - Grillo from Sicily We then moved onto Chianti with the meal The menu is short and interesting and we really struggled to choose. We had sourdough and buter to nibble on whilst choosing Two had the ham hock terrine with toast which was chunky and tasty with a pear picallili I had the barbequed mackeral which came with asparagus and little sudges of mayo and roe - nice For mains we had bavette steak with fries, the flat iron Holstein chicken that came with a small side salad and a mushroom risotto Sides of fries were excellent and a green salad was very fresh and crisp with a great dressing We finished with a rhubarb brulee and a banoffi shortbread with ice cream We were all very please with teh food, teh wine, the ambience and teh service An excellent find

Di passaggio vicino la torre di Londra ci siamo fermati in questo ristorante che serve dei buoni hamburger, si ordina e paga alla cassa ma si viene serviti al tavolo. Il personale è molto gentile ed il servizio veloce. Prezzi buoni

He visitado el salón oval en varias ocasiones, siempre termina los días de semana. El personal es genial y muy agradable, las hamburguesas son tan buenos que querrás otra enseguida. El único fallo ha sido, cada vez, la larga espera. Por el momento la hamburguesa venía tanto mi amigo y yo habíamos terminado la bebida y pedimos otro.

Went for Sunday lunch today I must say it was by far the best pub lunch I have had for a very long time As ever the service was friendly and efficient If I lived locally I would be there every Sunday!

A great gastro style pub in kensal. It’s not the cheapest but service is great, food is good and it’s a great place for family and friends. Always a joy to visit and a treat

Really charming. A place that time forgot, and long may time continue to forget. No Grumbles from me.

We've hired the room upstairs at the North London Tavern on a few occasions now, from 1st to 30th birthday parties and Christmas Dinner celebrations with friends. Dan and the team offer a fantastic service (and food!) and are always accommodating to various needs. Would highly recommend hiring this the room for events.

We went to The Loft upstairs. Very delightful place although as a lover of traditional pubs the standing around waiting to be seated and table service killed the atmosphere for me. Not helped by the slow service. Would recommend if it changed the model to be a proper pub.

Food and service was fantastic thankyou to all the staff and Chef

A pleasant PUB with a great atmosphere... the workers are extremely approachable and friendly, and helpful when choosing food and drinks. A space with a pleasant interior. We recommend it to everyone for socializing and going out and having a good time with food and drink...

Recommended with excellent customer service

Authentic british food, fish and chips and beef pie were good. We wanted to eat something traditional, and that was more important than the taste 😆 Definitely something to try!

We had a wonderful dinner here today. Lariane, our server, was incredibly kind and went out of her way to make our dining experience enjoyable. Her warmth really added to the evening.

Great pub, great food and great staff! Big shout out for the bangers mash and gravy, was lush. Winnie (dog) always welcome , always seeking her treat.

We had a re-union and met for lunch. The food was excellent, I recommend the fish and chips. The service was very good. We stayed for 4 and half hours. Very enjoyable.
