    So I came here on a Saturday afternoon, for a birthday meal and what first impressive was the…read moreappearance. Super comfy chairs, nice long tables, perfect for getting a large group of people together and some cute decor. The staff are super friendly and the server realty took time to talk us through the menu and make recommendations. And I think they charged practically half of the tables phones too, which was fabulous! Totally saved me! Food wise, it's a bit on the pricey side and the portions aren't massive, you'll need a platter and a side each if you wanna eat a fair sized meal. This will come to around £15-18, but the quality is very good! I got the hot fish platter and mmm it was delicious! The wine and beer menu is very extensive which impressed and I tried out a very strange sounding IPA called Galaxy.. No, its not chocolate flavoured, before you ask. That was super strong at 6.5% and is definitely worth trying if you're an IPA drinker. All in all, if you want somewhere with a chilled out vibe for a date night or a meal with a group of friends, this could well be your spot!

    A friend of mine holds a monthly event here called the Sunday Shake Off Brunch (a blues dancing and…read moreskills share event - you should check it out!), and I was very impressed with the venue today. We use a room downstairs - fairly small but perfect for our needs, with a DJ booth space in one corner, and a small bar in the opposite corner (we use this as a place to rest our drinks, etc, which are ordered upstairs. There is a bar with stools down one side of the room, sofas lining the other side and one wall has a mirror lining it. Today the room seemed to be decorated with a space theme (not for us but we enjoyed it), and they started taking the decorations down once we were done, so who knows what we'll have next time! One of the sections of our event also involved glitter getting everywhere, and they were fine with that (with advance warning!). They serve brunch until 3pm today upstairs, but we pre-ordered ours and sat down as one big group at 3pm to eat - they were happy to help us rearrange all the tables so that we could sit together properly, rather than in split tables of two or four. The brunch menu is small but varied, from salmon to duck to avocado, and the poached eggs are perfect (and fresh! The yolks are BRIGHT and rich)! The coffees were great too, and there were deals on alcohol but I did not partake on this occasion... Almost most importantly though, the staff were really friendly and helpful! An overall lovely experience, it's a shame Haunt is so far out of my way in the general day to day! Thoroughly recommended.

    Oh yeah! Americans…read morefrom California here. Who would've known that mashed potatoes, sausages, and gravy would go so well together! Loved every bite. Got the gravy on the side, didn't think I'd use all of it, before I knew it, it was all gone. And you wouldn't think that the type of mash or type of gravy or type of sausage would matter that much, but they really do all have distinct flavors! I will be mixing mustard into my mashed potatoes from now on. Originally came for the sticky toffee pudding, so of course we ended with that. Marvelous! The toffee sauce is so comforting and rich, the cake was so moist, and it was perfectly balanced with the ice cream. Didn't detect any dates, maybe they were too finely chopped. Also the apple and blackberry crumble just didn't hit the same; it was slightly dry and on the sour side (maybe don't take a bite directly after the pudding!) Service was so helpful and friendly; I'm sure they love watching people fall in love with their food. Quick with refills and offered extra condiments if needed. Great air conditioning as well (always a plus), and I loved the green blacksplash and blackboard caligraphy on the walls as well. Bangin'

    the poor rating has to do with the rude staff at this location. i'm not sure if he was the owner or…read morea staff member, but there was an older man who was very rude to us when we arrived. we entered the establishment, as that is what you typically do when you want to dine at a restaurant, and he came up the stairs and didn't even offer a greeting. i mentioned that we had a reservation for that time and he immediately just kept repeating that our table was outside. we went outside to their small patio dining area, and saw that there was a table with a "reserved" sign on it, so we sat down. i thought it was incredibly rude that he spoke to us in that manner, and it seemed like he expected us to somehow know that that table was ours before we had even spoken to any staff. i was seriously considering getting up and leaving but i decided to give this place one more chance. it then took a while, but we were eventually served by a much more pleasant and friendly younger server, who helped make this experience better. i would give this place a lower rating, however i must admit that the food was delicious. as an american tentatively wanting to try british bangers and mash, this exceeded my expectations. we all spoke about how the sausage was plump, snappy, and delicious, definitely one of the best we've ever had. the mashed potatoes were also amazing- cheesy and heavenly, and i'm not even usually a mashed potatoes kinda person. i am glad that we stayed solely for the delicious food, but i would not come back because of our experience with the staff here. the place already was one of the emptier spots on this very busy soho street anyway.

    Excellent Sunday roast!…read more We came here for Easter dinner and not disappointed! The staff here is warm and welcoming. I was worried that they would run out of roast so the hostess had me email her our order ahead of time. She was super accommodating! We started with some cocktails and wine. The cocktails were delicious! For dinner, my mom and I shared the chicken to share and my dad had the veggie Wellington. Everything was delicious! The chicken came with Yorkshire puddings for both us! They were AMAZING! I now love Yorkshire puddings, but who wouldn't?! They're flakey on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside! Yum! It also came with veggies, potatoes and stuffing balls! We had a food baby at the end! My dad had a spinach and Ricotta Wellington with a Yorkshire pudding as well! He loved it and was very impressed with the meal. Best Sunday roast here!!

I had the roast beef which came with carrots, parsnips, roast potato and a Yorkshire pudding. I wasn't in love with the Yorkshire which was a shame but everything else was good. Mac & cheese side order was great. My daughter told the waitress that her meal was the best (we got her & her sister some of the sides..broccoli, mac & cheese and fries). For dessert we shared strawberries & meringue between three of us, which was light & fresh. I do wish the music was turned down just a little..hate it when I feel like I have to raise my voice to have a conversation with the person opposite me.

    I loved everything about this restaurant. We went to the one in Covent Garden and I'm officially…read moreobsessed. From the decor to the service to the food, everything hits. Tillie was our server and I wanted to make her my friend! The sweetest smile, the kindest personality and demeanor. It was like a warm hug being served by here. I came in convinced we were going to do the chef's choice meal but there were too many specific dishes we wanted to try so we went in that direction. Started with the rip and dip platter with GF bread. Pitas looked amazing but the GF bread worked great too. The smoked cod dip was unreal. For mains we shared the fried halloumi, sea bream, chicken and calamari. That fried halloumi has been in my head for days now, I'm obsessed. Nothing special about the calamari but the sea bream was bright, nutty and delicious. And the chicken was juicy and the sauce was addictive, I couldn't stop eating it. We got the med cheesecake for dessert and the sourness of the cheese paired with the crunchy kataifi was so good! I can't stop talking about this place and will visit again later this year. Huge fan!!

A suggestion would be to make a reservation because if we hadn't lucked into that last table, we would have waited a long time in the cold.

    This is just such a lovely pub and fantastic for group dinners .I recently went out here for a…read moregoing away dinner and we had a large table and banquet - the dinner was great - wine even better - and desert gorgeous(home-made date ice cream). This pub was so different before renovated and has been brought back to life to such a high standard - all the original details are here with new tufted leather banquettes and old animal taxiderm box scenes . The overall feeling is more upmarket and gastro pub-like. Feels very special occasion and slightly formal.It is not really really expensive but this is not cheap - you can have a main meal for £ 11-15.00 and deserts around £5.00 - it is the drink that will top the bill. I know it does not make sense but I have a problem with no smoking -Not that I want to smoke as a former smoker - I just really miss that smoky atmosphere - I know we are all healthier my clothing smells better in the morning and it is nicer to not eat around smoke but pubs should have a bit of a haze about them - So this is my only bad words about the pub - no haze ..otherwise great ..
