    Veggie Breakfast and Eggs Benedict
    Nicole M.

    One of our favorite breakfasts in London! We stopped here before catching our train out of town and we're so happy we did! The atmosphere is gorgeous, the staff was super friendly and the food... wow!! We each ordered cappuccinos and for our meals, had the Veggie Full Breakfast and Eggs Benedict. Every piece of my veggie breakfast was so flavorful and well seasoned. Each bite was phenomenal! My husband enjoyed his meal as well and said it was his favorite Eggs Benedict he had during our stay. I highly recommend a visit!

    We had a party of 20 for a business dinner on a Wednesday night so they asked that we submit our orders for appetizer, dinner, and dessert days in advance. When we arrived, each of us had a table card with our orders on them; all they needed to do was match the seat with the order. You would think that it would make servicing the table simple. Despite all of this pre-planning, the waitress was having difficulty getting the correct meal to the right person and there were multiple requests for drinks that were either overlooked or completely forgotten. The food itself was OK, but the service was embarrassing considering all of the planning that had gone into the meal. I ordered a double Woodford Reserve and the pour was barely 1oz. Overall, it was a disappointing experience and I would not rush back.

    The decor and vibe here is so chic. Definitely a good place to grab a drink after work. While that wasn't what I stopped in for, I did enjoy my meal! For appetizers, we ordered beef croquettes with garlic sauce and the Roman fries (truffle, Parmesan & rosemary seasoned). I wasn't too fond of the beef croquette because it tasted like the beef was seasoned with a middle eastern spice. I do like middle eastern spices but I feel like it didn't pair well with the beef. As for the truffle fries, I expected it to be more truffle flavored rather than the top just seasoned. As for my main dish, I had the fish and chips. Nothing spectacular here. I would probably come back here for drinks, but that's about it!

    Ordered lamb chops and pork chops with some sides. The meat is cooked well but a bit too salty... The sides: 1. The onion rings are bland... they forget to put any seasoning in the flour I think... 2. The sugar snap peas are having the hard tip ends and it felt very annoying...

    Kind of like a Penicillin, only this is the Doctors Orders with Kamm & Sons, mezcal, lemon, honey and ginger.

    I'll be up front: as a rule I don't like Drake & Morgan joints. I find them soulless, watered down and way too "marketed for women." Which isn't to say they're actually bad places - just really not my style. But then again they serve a purpose: they provide a place for people to go to instead of the bars that I frequent. This new flagship venue however is another story. Don't tell anyone, but I actually really like it. Dark matte colours, gold accents, kind of Art Deco and the food was amazing. The head chef used to work at The Electric House and has brought his A game. And you can get food all freaking day, which is a massive plus in my world. This place is also freaking massive. So you had best believe you know where to find me for their bottomless brunch.

    Wagyu burger. Do not recommend.

    The best thing about this place was the toilets. Seriously. The mirrors are awesome for three person group shots. Shame about the food. We all went for the same meal - the Wagyu burger with blue cheese and tomato chutney. I asked for my burger rare, and was told by the waitress they would only cook it medium. That's ok, I'm used to that in the UK, and I was assured it was still nice and pink in the middle. I was expecting a nicely textured, pink centered, good quality burger. What I received was a tiny, over cooked, chewy patty. At £13.95 I was not impressed. The tomato chutney was nice, but they were over generous with it. I couldn't taste, and could barely see, the blue cheese, even when I looked for it. The bun was nice. Between us we shared the £9.95 trio of fries. The sweet potato were lovely, it's hard to go wrong there. The Roman fries (parmesan, truffle and rosemary) were disappointing - the truffle went unnoticed and the parmesan was a few stingy shavings. The Cowboy fries (honey, chilli and garlic) just tasted like fries which were drowning in barbecue sauce. Service was ok. A bit unknowledgeable, but friendly and reasonably quick. I won't be going back though, the food just wasn't up to scratch. In an area of Kings Cross with so many other, decent, options, Drake & Morgan need to up their game.

    I believe this is a chain....and my guess is on Thursday and Friday nights it's packed with thirsty office workers looking to get their 'drank' on....sadly as an eating venue it fell somewhat below par, full menu, just not executed very well. Ate here through convenience and availability....would return for a drink but not to eat again, run of the Mill / sub standard for area....

    New space in a blossoming part of town. So much this is now becoming the place to open up. Bars, restaurants, tech co's. It's all happening. I must say the vast size of his space is HUGE. It's not intimate. Even has an outside nice terrace like many other places in area. The downstairs bar is deceptively big. Or so I thought...the mirrors make it bigger than you think but it's still a lovely space. The canopes we were given were ok. Tuna stand out. But the cocktails were very good. And that's what you should judge it on. All in all I'll be back to see it when it's more filled up on a weekend.

Came here for pre-theater anniversary dinner with my wife. The ambiance was somewhere between that of a trendy club and nice bar. There was a mad scientist vibe with the lights being industrial vibe and some metal decor. The music was thumpy and loud enough to remind you it was there. It made me feel a bit out-of-place as somebody well past my 20s, but also a bit cool or being there. You really come here for the drinks. We got the pipe dream, smokey old fashioned, honeypot picante, and one other I can't remember the name of, but which came in a flower pot. The pipe dream and smokey old fashioned were likely the best. Overall the drinks were more visually appealing than traditionally good and the visually appealing ones tended to have ingredients that weren't as top shelf and/or they were just too sweet. Not bad, but disappointing for what we'd hope. The food was the opposite. I had low expectations and the food wasn't amazing, but was better than average. We got the bao buns, crispy duck pancakes, panko halloumi, katsu curry, and hot honey pork tacos. They arranged for it all to come out in time for us to make our theater show, which was nice. The bao buns and pork tacos were probably the best. Neither blew me away, but both were solid. The katsu curry and halloumi were standard of what you might expect. The crispy duck pancakes was maybe as advertised, but it would have been nice to have some moistness or substance to the dug vs. it basically being crunchy salty bits of something. Overall, this wasn't a bad meal, but it wasn't quite what I was hoping for either. We may be back, but we'll probably try other things first.

Whilst it's not the most posh place I've been, it usually gets the job done well. Drinks are how you would find at most pubs, and service is decent too, given how a waitress came to ask us what we wanted and served us amidst a busy rugby game (at other times, we had gone to the bar to order ourselves). There are quite a few tv screens as well as a big home theatre-like one too, which always adds to your sports watching experience. I've never had food here before but would like to try sometime. I hear that their wings are good. Be sure to bring an ID -- as its part of a casino facility, they check your ID even if you're here only for the bar and not for gambling.

Oddly, to open a tab, you have to give them both your credit/debit card AND your driver's license/passport/ID card. They give you a "badge" which you then show every time you order, apparently so they know which tab to bill it to. A bit weird to me, but maybe that's the norm in London, or at least in high-tourist bars in London. Also, they won't let men inside if you are wearing a hat-- you must remove the hat to enter. Fortunately, once inside, I put my hat back on and didn't have a problem with anyone saying anything. Glad my hat hair didn't have to be on display!

We were respectful and nonpolitical, she assumed from our ethnic backgrounds and treated us accordingly. She verbatim said she will not serve our kind. Then proceeded to tell all her bar tenders to no longer serve us. Regrettably we had to get our drinks upstairs. She went out of her way to stare at us from the top, making my mother uncomfortable. If you want a pub without employees making every thing political, this is not the spot. We do not even entertain politics, she just put us in a basket. This is the first time in my life I had to exit the pub because of the brainwashed ultra lefty employee.

It was the second pub I visited on my visit to London, and again, I can't wait to go back. First, the prices: in America, two drinks would have cost at least $20; here, two drinks were only £11. I would've spent the whole night there if I could, but when you're traveling and have places to be early the next day, it's hard. Second, the service and ambiance were great. They serve the drinks very quickly, and of course, they know how to pour a pint of Guinness.
