A seat yourself, order and pay online via QR code pub near the Tower of London. I got the lunch special which was any of the 4 options on the lunch menu and a half pint of beer or a soda for £14. I chose the chicken focaccia sandwich and it wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. The bread was far larger than the char-grilled chicken, barely any spread and the bacon was soft and lacked flavor. (Though I don't fault them for that, my preference is super crispy bacon) Service once I ordered was fairly quick, staff was friendly and the ambiance was nice and inviting. Plenty of tables and a nice big bar for drinks. In the end, there are plenty of other options for food and drink within a few feet of this place, but if All Bar One isn't busy and you need a quick bite, it gets the job done. read more

Drinks were fine. They had a deal 2 for £15, but you have to be careful because they have an emblem next to the drinks that are included in this deal. They bring both drinks out at the same time if you participate in this deal. My friend ordered a drink not on the deal menu and they brought out 2, when we brought it to their attention they just proceeded to charge us for it. We didn't fight it, but just be careful, I definitely felt like this was a situation where tourists could be taken advantage of. Overall drinks weren't bad and the prices were reasonable. It's very close to the tower of London as well, so convenient if you're out touring. Accessibility: bathrooms are not accessible due to stairs. read more

Friendly service with a very mediocre festive lunch. Turkey was mostly overcooked, no Yorkshire pudding, vegetables cooked nicely. They were very kind and receptive to the feedback we provided. read more

Tiramisu martini was on point. Took a long time to get drinks. Asked for water, it was never brought. Service could be quicker. read more

Good food for Texans missing out on their normal fare. Onion rings and fries are very good, followed by the sausage link. Carolina pulled pork was also good. Not a fan of the sweet pickles and coleslaw, but those are sides anyway. You may want to ask for the slaw and pickles on the side of your Carolina pulled pork sandwich. read more

Just a bit late in reviewing. We came here while touring the city. It is conveniently located across from the Tower of London. If you are looking for a great Full English Breakfast look no further. If you have never had a Full English prepare to bring you appetite. The portion sizes are very plentiful. Everything on the plate was wonderful & fresh. The restaurant was very clean &the staff was extremely friendly. We are looking forward to our next return visit. read more

We stopped in for breakfast one day while out walking around, touring London. It's a convenient location & it's cute decor makes you feel comfortable. We were promptly greeted and seated a table by the window. Our server was very friendly. My husband ordered the English breakfast & I ordered the eggs Benedict and a smoothie. Everything seemed fresh and came out in a reasonable time frame. It all tasted delicious and the prices were not bad. Overall, we had a good experience. read more

I have to agree with the people that this earns only three stars. Like most places I visited in London, customer service isn't a priority. We were a party of two and immediately addressed as we entered and offered to sit at any table. We sat directly across from the bar and watched three servers continually serve people around us and at the bar. After 20 minutes, I went to the bar and asked if I was supposed to order there or at the table. The server huffed and said at the table, walked around the bar and told me to go to my table and she was coming. So I thought I had totally inconvenienced her after waiting 20 minutes with no service as servers stood and talked. This was around lunchtime and there were only about five other people in the entire place. As for the food, you can see from my photos that part of our quesadilla was very burned. We ordered some wings which came with four very tiny wings. The flavors of the food were good and the one drink we were allowed to order was fine. When the server delivered our food she asked if we needed ketchup or mayo and I said yes for ketchup. She never brought this and I had to go back up to the bar to ask for some. She also never returned to offer us a chance to order additional drinks. I had to go up to the bar and ask for our check so that we could leave. I wouldn't come here if I wanted great food or service. read more

I found a good cost-benefit place. Nice environment, music, good service and price. The neighborhood has lots of bars and restaurants and it is located very close to the four seasons hotel. read more

Attended here with me American friend as after spending hours (and I mean hours) at The Tower of London we were a tad hungry and trying to find somewhere nice to eat was proving hard. They had seen this place near to Waterloo so wanted to try this one. Whilst it looked pleasant from the outside they weren't impressed with how they had to clean the table to make it suitable for us to use whilst I was ordering at the bar. The food came out fairly quickly and they checked how the food was. Mine was fine and I enjoyed it but I know my friend was not that impressed hence the reason for 3 stars read more

We came here for lunch when one of our favorites around the corner was closed for the holidays. We should have continued farther down the street for something else. Service here is strange and horribly inconsistent. It is unclear whether servers are assigned to a table or if they simply cover all tables. The person who seated us and took our order mysteriously kept hiding behind a post, and he had to reconfirm the order three times. Considering there were two of us and we only ordered entrees, it should not have been hard. [I suggest he start writing them down] Thereafter, I did not receive my drink and had to ask the bar directly. My boyfriend ordered the Eggs Benedict which was OK. I got the roasted chicken. Huge mistake. It was the driest piece of chicken I had ever tasted in my life. The insides had deflated and was only skin.... sort of like Peking Duck but without the flavor. It also seemed as though it had been reheated more than once. Oy. We then had to go back to the bartender for our check. She even asked who our server was and seemed (rightfully so) frustrated. On the plus side, they have a very good cocktails and wine list. There are several moderately priced wines that I would have tried if I ever returned, which I won't. Overall, this place needs a new chef and manager who can train the waitstaff. DON'T GO HERE. read more

Perfect place, nice people, excellent food. Delicious Fish and Chips and tapas. A large selection of amazing soaps and hand creams in the toilets :-) read more

From what I could tell, this seemed like a pretty standard All Bar One. Situated within a stone's throw to Tower Hill and the recent poppy display, it was (as expected) a busy London day, so we headed here for a drink while waiting for our table at Bodean's next door rather than getting sucked in to the crowd. It only took a few minutes before a table became available, and we even managed to get one with almost enough seats for our party of seven, which is rare! A bottle of white wine between four and beer for the others, we were happy to spend some time chatting; the atmosphere felt relaxed, though I wouldn't see it as somewhere to get a good meal. Stop for a drink but then go exploring - with Tower Hill station moments away, you could get anywhere! read more

Between 3 and 4. Fresh ingredients, decent food, vegetarian options, just not quite up to a 4.

We just stumbled upon this place and what a find! Their breakfast until 4pm menu is great and offers a killer deal with choose a breakfast and any cocktail for 10 pounds! Very nice atmosphere, modern look and great bar! Nice place but the service is so slow and makes it more annoying then enjoyable. read more

We popped in for lunch. It wasn't busy at all and the service was alright, but lacked personality (it doesn't hurt to smile). I had to ask twice for the wi-fi code before walking to the bar myself to get it. The food was fine -- good but not great. We went with 5 tapas dishes. Calamari was solid (not overlooked). Crispy chicken was good. Arancini was good enough (maybe a little mushy) but I didn't care for the plum sauce that went with it. Gnocchi seemed deep fried, which was strange. Chorizo was good. The questionable dish was the fish & chips. It's possible the fish was caught from the Thames sometime last week. The biggest knock is probably the location. Financial Districts wig me out a little, and this was no exception. read more

This place was a massive disappointment. Never judge a book by its cover. The 2 salads my girlfriend and I ordered took roughly 45 minutes to be served and they were very small in size, which made us wonder what took so long. The chicken seems to be pre-cooked then put in the microwave when needed. DO NOT go here unless you're going for drinks. read more

We did not get really welcome service on arriving but found a table in the back. Our server was very good. I thought food took quite a while to be served. Tasted ok but I think people go there more for drinks than food. Only bad part was a horrible drain smell that wafted in every so often read more

All Bar One was a great little breakfast spot on Byward Street near our hotel. I ordered the vanilla latte to start, which came with some yummy chocolate candies. My husband had the Full English Breakfast, made with Cherry Orchard sausages, smoked back bacon, free range eggs, roast mushroom, plum tomato, baked beans and toasted sourdough. I had the Eggs Royale, made with Severn & Wye smoked salmon and topped with Hollandaise sauce. Nice little breakfast! read more

I went here about a year ago while visiting London. It was pretty slow, but the waitress was really friendly and the food was satisfactory, nothing too special and probably a bit overpriced. The selection of beer isn't too bad either, and there were several that I'd never had before so all in all, I was pretty happy with my experience. Probably more of a wine bar than for beer, and definitely not a "British" pub atmosphere. read more

Wandered in for our first real meal since landing and it hit the spot. The two eggs over easy were served up on a and lightly toasted slice of bread and came with vegetarian sausage, mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, and cuppa Earl Grey. With Smarties. I was just so glad to find somewhere that doesn't have meat in all its dishes! read more

My friend and I stopped in here for a quick drink and snack. When we arrived, there were maybe three-four other tables in the entire restaurant. We ordered a drink each and three of the small plates, which took almost 40 minutes to come out (during which time our server completely disappeared). When the food arrived, the halloumi fries were slightly warm, the skewers were not warm at all, and the bread of the bruschetta hadn't been toasted or grilled, or anything. They just put avocado and tomatoes on cut bread and served it. I can't imagine why it took so long to get this underwhelming food, but other than a muttered "sorry" after the last dish showed up at our table, there wasn't even an acknowledgement of how long we had waited. read more

Awful...just Awful...undercooked flatbread and extremely slow service. Avoid!!

Visited for a few drinks after work. Can't comment on the food but the drinks were correct and orders were quickly fulfilled, even during the busy after work rush. One of the waitresses could tell from my "accent"that I wasn't from London. She poured me some mulled wine to sample because I'd never seen it. Very nice to oblige, even with a smile, especially since she was busy. read more

I've been to All Bar Ones in London before and so knew what to expect - however this one was very disappointing. They have a choice between salad and fries as a side to their lunch meals - they only had salad to offer on the day. As well as this, they didn't have any wraps, so instead they turned my wrap into a sandwich... The bread they used was stale and dry, and they used the end piece of the bread for one side of my sandwich. The salad was disgusting and I'd have preferred them not to have served it at all. The staff were very nice, and I felt embarrassed for them as it was probably because of the laziness of the kitchen staff that they had to keep getting abuse from other customers because they had hardly anything to offer. read more

Came across here looking for a cafe that we later found had closed down. At first, we walked straight past as it looked like it would be quite expensive but when we looked at the menu it was very reasonably priced.The cafe itself is beautifully decorated and the coffee and food was delicious. The staff I found to be quite cold however which wasn't so great. read more

Very modern place. I prefer the pub but they had some great drinks here and the dessert is very good.

This All Bar One is much the same as any other. We were a large group needing to find somewhere for dinner late on a Saturday in the Tower Hill area and this was convenient and available. The service was ok, friendly yet they forgot a few of the drinks orders. This was probably because there were 9 of us. I shared a number of the tapas style dishes between 4 of us and nothing jumped out at me as being "must have more of this!". The sweet potato fries were good. The rest was fairly average. My husband had a burger and said that it was a little dry, again nothing to rave about. No complaints really, I'd say this place is ok if you need something convenient and last minute but there isn't much character to it and the food is average. read more

There's plenty of these around and this one is as good as any really. There's cheap cocktails hours, a half decent menu, and a raucous crowd at times. read more

I came to All Bar One with my friends Cheryl, Lorraine and Angela. We are from the U.S. visiting London. Our server was Anita from Poland and she was fantastic. The bar snacks and wine were great. Absolutely stunning décor. An A+ experience. We are coming back today for more! Thank you. read more
