This was a decent pub we all had dinner at in London on a Monday. Service is a little different in…read moreLondon. You typically order at the bar instead of a waitress coming to the table. One eventually came to our table after sitting awhile. I of course had to try the fish n chips. A couple of veggie burgers were ordered and a regular burger. Surprisingly happy hour was still on at 8 o'clock so drinks were ordered. The food all came at the same time and everything was cool. The fish had a nice flavor from the fried batter. To me it was similar to Long John Silvers as far as the batter is concerned, but slightly better quality overall. The fries were standard. The only thing horrible was the very bland mashed green peas. They should be omitted from every pub across the country, but I think it is a traditional item included with the fish. The cocktails were good as well as the price. The sticky toffee pudding was something else I was advised to try while in London. I must admit it was really delicious. It came with a scoop of ginger ice cream and a warm buttery toffee sauce to pour over. It was delightfully warm and sweet and paired well with the ice cream. The cake itself was moist enough on its own with notes of brown sugar and molasses. I could have had seconds and thirds of this desert. Yum! The majority of my party didn't think the food was fantastic. The burgers happened to be somewhat alright. This was a first for me having pub food and I would have more again as long as I stick to the basics.

I only came here because it was a convenient meeting place for several friends, and one of my…read morefriends is a regular here, so we all decided to meet one evening, and I am glad we did! Yes, there are many pubs in London, everyone has their favorite, everyone has their local, and my "local" depends on where I am staying. In any case, several of us met here. The place was definitely hopping but one of our group arrived early and grabbed a table. We all ordered drinks, I had beer which was delicious. After perusing the menu, I ordered the standard- Fish & Chips, with Mushy Peas. It came out quickly and was fried to perfection. Everybody else who ordered food seemed happy with their choices. It was a great setting to meet up with friends, and I will happily come back here when in the area. A solid pub in a city of many pubs!

Wasn't noisy as we were almost the first there for lunch and the last to get there before closing the next night so overall the place was very quiet.

Luckily, it wasn't very busy at the time or she could have easily gotten overwhelmed. Had a Samuel Smith ale and a gin drink or two. Also had the fish bites appetizer, which I loved so much, I ordered another. Atmosphere was pretty cool with unique bar seating and low walk-throughs (not sure how else to describe them). Again, with just the one server, I could see how they could be overwhelmed quickly and service would suffer. But for us, service was very good and she was very friendly and attentive.

I'm not really sure why this establishment is rated below four stars here on Yelp. Most bad ratings…read moreare from way back, and maybe there was a change in ownership/management or so? However, this place was a pleasant surprise on a long weekend trip to London. Visiting Portobello market in the morning and being hungry at lunch, we stopped there just by accident, which we rarely do without consulting apps like, e.g., Yelp. (Would we had checked on Yelp, we probably wouldn't have gone.) Space was rare, so we were seated at the bar area with a full-scale view of the kitchen. Dishes (I posted some photos) served in a sharing/tapas style, the menu consisting of a variety of starters, grilled vegetables, and deliciously prepped meat options. Watching the chefs preparing the food right before us made the experience even more fascinating. We ordered six plates and all of them were very delicious. The service was quick and exceptionally friendly, paying attention to every detail. Before clearing our check, we were asked by someone of the senior staff (or owner?) if we were happy with our lunch. We confirmed that all was very good; just the squid was a little chewy (but still good). To our surprise, he insisted on taking it off the bill immediately. Well, he didn't have to because we ate it and were happy, but hey, it's one more of many, many reasons to give this place a full five stars.

Having said that, I would highly recomment The Magazine for an early breakfast before the crowds arrive. We had the most enjoyable morning, sipping coffee and choosing from a good selection of sweet temptations - cake for breakfast is perfectly OK! They have quite a tasty sounding menu of savoury breakfast items (including the aforementioned omelette). I think I ticked "not suitable for children" when I checked in, and I was wrong. They are perfectly happy accommodating families and don't seem to mind sticky crumbs strewn all over their elegant pale grey carpets. The perfect start to a day in the park. I have previously been for afternoon tea by which time the restaurant is crazy busy and you are lucky to get a seat on one of their shared tables.
