After walking around Wimbledon and soaking up the festivities of the tennis, my friend and I…read moredecided to stop here for a cocktail or three.... We immediately loved the decor and outdoor seating and decided to sit outside and people watch while we drank and had a catch up. They offer table service and our waiter was really nice and able to offer recommendations. Drinks are on the pricier side, but the cocktails were delicious and I suppose, it is Wimbledon! Later into the evening, reserved signs were put onto all the tables and the place really filled up. It seems this is a popular local spot. The atmosphere really got going and I would say it is a great place to meet friends in the evening. There is a young vibe, all the staff are fairly young but the customers were of a more mature age.

If you like cocktails, then you will find an eclectic list here to satisfy all. The location is…read moregreat, it is right in the Wimbledon Village and the world famous Wimbeldon Tennis ground is within seeing distance. I can imagine that during the Wimbledon tennis season, it must be absolutely packed as there is plenty of outdoor seating and it simply has a great vibe. I wish I lived closer to it, i would definitely go more often. The decor is simplistic, modern and looks brilliant. You may think that is would be quite expensive being right next to the tennis ground and Wimbledon being quite expensive in general, but prices are the same as any other lush London bar. The service is fantastic, everybody seemed cheeful and smiles were everywhere, when in such an environment, it rubs off on you, so I had a great time on my one and only visit. It is not as if Wimbledon is just around the corner to me, so I wont be going in the foreseeable future, but look forward to my next trip. Wimbldon is a great area, and Ecplipse is somewhere to chill out after a longs day walking and shopping there.

Zero Stars. Unfortunately to leave a feedback must choose minimum one star…read more An establishment which is TRYING to be an upmarket sheesha venue but fails in every way miserably. Being neighbours to a widely known hotel, they must think of themselves as the dogs b******s but are sooooo lame. A Japanese fusioned menu which they can't cook to the right standard. Relatively high prices which the end product cannot justify. Very difficult venue to find as not signposted at all. Even the grounds they share with hotel doesn't showcase the venue so they must be embarrassed of their small time inferior neighbours! Recap: crap food, crap atmosphere, difficult venue to find, high prices, fake - being something they are not and unable to deliver to. I would avoid! Many Many Many times better and classier sheesha and food establishments available around the city, choose one of them and enjoy.

Strangely, pubs are not thick on the ground in Wimbledon. The Alexandra (locally known as "the…read moreAlex") is centrally located, a short walk from the railway station. It is very popular, benefiting from an off-street outside seating area, plus a terrace upstairs. It has a full bar, including a good range of real ales and craft ales. They serve food throughout the week. I've always found service to be friendly, and reasonably efficient (it can get very busy in summer). I have only eaten here a few times, and the food has always been perfectly decent: the main issue in terms of both food and drinks is that it is quite expensive, reflecting the area it is in. A couple of pints of lager, with some snacks, won't leave much change out of £20. But the upstairs Terrace in particular is a nice place to chill out, and it feels away from the hectic traffic of the Broadway.

I happened to get here the first time because my usual pub, a few minutes away, was fully packed for a big rugby match. The atmosphere was pretty welcoming and relaxed, the TV screen are quite dated, making it a fantastic venue for those not too interested in watching a bunch of guys running for a ball or, even worse, trying to hit it with a bat. Since then, this became our regular place with true customers and a guaranteed seat (hopefully this review will end up among the non-recommended ones).

She went with her favourite Wildwood burger, a traditional mix. I chose the Giorgio Kiriakos burger, a juicy lamb burger with halloumi. It filled the hungry spot nicely The decor could maybe do with a lick of paint here and there but it was a relaxed place for a reasonably priced meal

It's a truly local shindig, so regulars are common and they reflect the diversity of the surrounding areas. They have a lunch deal for £5.50 which changes daily: but evenings are good too. This is also a really nice venue to have a get together. If you book early enough Mel's could be a great place for birthday parties. The menu is quite British, but looks awesome at the same time, if a little expensive.

This is a neighbourhood Turkish restaurant with a separate takeaway outlet adjacent…read more The dining part has a main room at the front and a smaller, more private eating area at the rear up a few steps. The walls are largely bare brick and there are pretty Middle Eastern lamps everywhere. That said, the lighting is a little bright and there's piped Middle Eastern music, so it's not as cosy as the name might suggest. We had the set menu for £18.95 for two, with a bottle of Pinot Grigio. The menu included the mixed vegetarian meze to start, followed by vegetarian moussaka (served with rice and salad) followed by a Turkish coffee and fresh mint tea. The food was good, and portions generous. The bread served with the meze was superb - as was the Kisir (bulgar wheat with fresh herbs and spices) and Cacik (the Turkish take on Tzaziki). The freshness of everything was very evident. Service from one of the waiters was a bit erratic but the other was super friendly and very efficient. The Turkish coffee and mint tea were very good. The bill, including wine and service, came to £35 a head. A nice touch was asking if we were happy with the service charge. Overall, it was a good experience and I'd happily go back.

We started off looking through the impressive cocktail menu - I chose the Mango Jambo which was delicious (although the coconut milk made it very sweet and a little dessert-y, so I ended up drinking most of it after the meal). They have a great selection with a wide range of spirits. The menus are laminated and a lot of the cocktails come in novelty glasses so it's not a classy affair, but great if you're looking for a fun & laid back evening! We ordered a selection of food between us and the portions were very generous. My favourites were the grilled halloumi (although I'm not sure how you can go wrong with this) and the stuffed peppers - they were stuffed with couscous & veg and were surprisingly light. All of the dips were well seasoned an not too oily, a problem I usually find! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, and overall it was a lovely meal.

QUESTION: Where can you go to get a five-star hotel's afternoon champagne tea for £20?…read more ANSWER: The Wyndham Grand at Chelsea Harbour. It's as simple as that, folks. Because of the Wyndham Grand's out-of-the-way Imperial Wharf location, you, too, could enjoy the epic spread of afternoon tea (with posh finger sandwiches, two homemade warm raisin scones with clotted cream and jam and a spread of individually sized sweet pastries and other treats - too much food for a single person to reasonably consume, I assure you) along with a glass of bubbly at a leisurely pace whilst taking in the view of the harbour and its (billionaires') boats. I'm not entirely sure why the afternoon tea is so cheap, but it is. Tea without champagne is a measly 15 quid. I booked a place for tea online and arrived to a quiet lounge area at 3:00pm, with Sunday brunch winding down in the adjacent restaurant. The table was set, and the polished and besuited server greeted me graciously. The low-seated couches and armchairs were large and cosy, and my companions and I sipped, munched, supped and gluttonously indulged for THREE HOURS. Service wasn't without its faults: the server was a bit nervous for whatever reason, but she was certainly friendly and gracious; my first pot of tea was loose leaf, as one would expect of afternoon tea at a five-star hotel, but my second pot had a teabag chucked in (although said tea in teabag was aromatic and delicious); water and/or tea refills weren't forthcoming, but the server would have fetched these things if asked. Despite these lapses in service (nit-picky though they are), overall, the experience and value for money were outstanding. SUMMARY: Go here if you're a local, you want an indulgent yet inexpensive afternoon tea, you don't want to combat crowds of tourists who may or may not think that the clotted cream belongs in their teacups.* _______________________________________________________ *Although I do know that by posting this review the afternoon tea at the Wyndham Grand may very well become more busy than it was on my first visit, I remain confident that it will maintain its atmosphere of exclusivity due to its less-accessible location.
