It's located in an old wine cellar (the oldest in London) and dimly lit by candles. If you are looking for a spot that matches the dark and moody London aesthetic and offers plenty of history, this place is perfect for you. I was very surprised by the quick wait time. We travelled in August which is their busiest time of year and the most we had to wait for a table was maybe 10 minutes. This place seems to be a true hidden gem and more popular among locals than tourists. The cheese boards are delicious and just as unique as the place itself. They have plenty of flavors to choose from and have several different options depending on your budget. We went with the two cheese board and everything included paired perfectly with the wine. The staff was great at giving us recommendations and even let us sample several flavors before committing. We loved this place so much we decided to come back our last day for round two. If you are travelling to London, I highly recommend adding this wine bar to your list of places to eat or drink in the city.

We came for Saturday breakfast since we were planning to be in Knightsbridge for the afternoon. We ordered their black truffled scrambled eggs on toast, crushed avocado on sourdough with poached eggs, and the ripe honey mango w/Thai basil & kaffir lime and some pastries. The black truffled eggs were good especially with the entire surface covered in black truffles, but to me the toast was a bit dry and the creamy eggs weren't enough to overcome the dryness in the toast. The star of the meal was the honey ripe mango. It was perfectly ripe with the hint of basil and kaffir lime in each bite. The presentation was simply beautiful. The decor and ambience is casual but at the same time elegant. There are elegant details everywhere starting at the entrance door and throughout the restaurant - the table top, the metal stamped H, I, D or E letters imbedded randomly on the edge of the tables, to the hearth where their pastries and bread are baked and showcased, and the opaque glassed kitchen above the main dining area where you see outlines of the staff working. Breakfast at HIDE was a pleasant and memorable dining experience. Will try dinner service next time. HIDE is located across from Green Park, not far from Buckingham Palace, and not too far from Knightsbridge. It's an ideal location when in the area.

Our server understood that we wanted to try many different wines that were available. Their recommendations on the wine list are an easy way to get to know different styles. The recommended red wine is a burgundy French wine that is light, supple and pairs easily with the cheese board. The white wine chardonnay is buttery and delicious. I would recommend giving them a chance and I do not think you will be disappointed.

Because of this, I'm always looking to try new places for wine. We happened to finish up our shopping on Jermyn street, and Fortnum and Mason were around the corner so we stopped in for something to relax. First, it is inside Fortnum and Mason and it's downstairs. So you must traverse through all the goodies to get to the place. It's not huge, but it is a nice place. They do wines by the bottle, glass or, if you're feeling super experimental, by the flight. I'm a huge fan of wine flights, and we opted for the champagne of the month flight. It was three glasses from their featured bubbly. And they were all good. The service can be a bit slow at times, but it's impeccable. They really go above and beyond when they make a mistake or there is a problem! There was a slight problem with our bill (the price of the flights were £3 too high), and while it took them awhile to get it sorted, they made sure we were completely happy before we left. (A little extra bubbly on the house? Don't mind if I do!) If I'm in the area, I'll be back. It's a bit pricier than other places, but it's nice to have a variety.

Definitely come here after a day of shopping in the area.

Admittedly, it was a little redundant with the Affettati but the honey complemented the cheeses so well that we devoured that as well. I wish I could say I am a wine connoisseur but I'm not.

Disappointing would be an understatement. If I could give this place a negative star, I would. First of all, the place was almost empty when we arrived so we thought we would get served pretty quickly. Boy, were we mistaken! It took almost 15 minutes to just get the waitress over to get a menu and take our drinks over. After what seemed like an age, the drinks came out. But, she said she would be right back to take our dinner order. Nope! A couple more people came in and she forgot about us. 30+ later we ask for the manager so we can get our meal ordered. No apology from the manager, just attitude. In the end, the people that came in 15-20 minutes after us got served their appetizers and meals before we did! At the end of our meal, we spoke with the manager again. He didn't give a toss! Gave lots of excuses, served with an I don't give a $#!t attitude. To make matters worse, the food was awful!
