    Meat pie
    Bob K.

    Just excellent. The food, cocktails, and ambience are amazing at this spot. Really enjoyed the ceremony and also how delicious the pork pie was. Schnitzel was delicious as well the Mac and cheese was the bomb. So rich and delicious. Service was excellent and matched the opulence of the spot. Really great.

    The food was delicious;we had the best fish and chips ever,it was crispy also the fat fries were also good.The servers were very nice and attentive. They served the food at an appropriate pace and did not rush us.The environment was friendly and welcoming,the room was spacious and comfortable. It had paintings and a sculpted ceiling, plus two chandeliers that were the main source of light. Candles were also lighting the room. The tables were neat and clean.It was an overall great experience.The End

    Sooooo good! Mac and cheese was incredible

    The food is as good and the place is as gorgeous. The Mac and cheese with beef on top was like the greatest Mac and cheese I've ever had. The shrimp cocktail was unique and different but so so tasty I had a latte and great sourdough bread and I loved every bite!

    The food is as good as ever at Berners Tavern, but the service was a bit of a disaster. They did not clear plates and glasses or pour the wine, just not very professional. The room is of course very impressive and a highlight. I'm hoping that it was just an off night and that the service will not be so bad in the future.

    Impressive meal in an impressive tavern in London! One of my colleagues in our London office planned a dinner for us while on business in September and he is quite the foody and this was a great example of how he didn't steer us wrong! Berners is not the typical 'tavern' as it is a much higher class version of one. Artwork covers all of the available wall space much like you see in old movies where they have a drawing room. The restaurant has high ceilings and feels very elegant though maybe a bit louder than I would have liked it to be. Service was excellent and we had a number of servers helping us throughout the evening as well as a sommelier. The wine was hit and miss. The first bottle was okay, but then we tried another and it was really good. The salad I had and the macaroni and cheese I ordered were both sensational. I suppose the idea is that it's upscale pub food and they pull it off very well! I have no idea what the prices are since it was a business dinner and I didn't really look, but I imagine it's pretty pricey. Not sure how touristy this, but if I was British, I'd take people here to show off how great dining in London can be!

    Met some friends for brunch at this gorgeous spot! So much art, decor and ambiance to enjoy your stay! I wouldn't recommend the fish and chips as it's a little pricey and there's better in other spots!!

Remarkable, he scored and I literally walked around the corner and saw the long line to get into the pub first. I was seated immediately, however, and proceeded to enjoy a traditional Sunday Roast. Room was very pleasant (there are so many I got lost returning to my table from a bio brake. Roast was very good ( but no Lawry's) and the sides excellent. Could not decide if my favorite was the roast potatoes (crispy outside soft inside) or the glazed carrots. Yorkshire pudding was good but again, I am to used to the Lawry's and this is a different style. Peas were, well, peas, but very fresh. The sticky toffee cake was excellent and the Guinness fresh, creamy and a proper pour. Good thing because the selection of winners by the glass and half bottles of wine were both a little thin. Overall wine list was good but I was alone and not up for drinking a full bottle by myself. Overall, very enjoyable and to judge by the crowd and difficulty in getting a reservation, one of the more popular in town.

The beer was great, the atmosphere was lively without feeling overwhelming, and it just felt like one of those places where people naturally gather and stay awhile.

Two story space - the ground floor feature the bar and handles walk in lunch; the upstairs is a dining room for those with reservations. Fun fact, as part of the history, the pub used to be the host of bare knuckle fights and had regulars like Charles Dickens. Wildfarmed sourdough - served with whipped salted butter and Guinness butter. Well toasted bread and the butters with salt were well made. Fuller's London Pride marinated steak and ale pie - served with seasonal veggies and red wine gravy, as well as either mash potatoes or triple cooked chips. If there is one dish London does really well, it's their pies. It was beautifully made and loaded with steak. The red wine gravy was decadent and added a perfect amount of moisture to the pie. Triple cooked chips were perfectly crispy but fluffy on the inside. Corn fed chicken breast - served with garlic and sage butter, mash potato, cavolo nero, and crispy onions. Only took a bite of this as it was my partner's dish but the bite of chicken I had was very juicy and well seasoned.
