We came here for dinner last evening in hopes of getting a good meal in a cozy, warm atmosphere…read more I'm happy to report that The Scarsdale Tavern delivered on both! The dining area in the back is a bit on the smaller side, and tables are close to one another. However, it worked for this tavern in that it created a more intimate environment. The decor is what I think of as quintessentially British. My husband ordered the beef Sunday roast, while I ordered the porchetta Sunday roast. It was a lot of food, but it was exactly what we needed as our first meal after a long flight from the States. I found my porchetta to be slightly dry and it could have used just a little bit more of that brown gravy. Otherwise, everything was delicious. i loved the roasted potatoes and Yorkshire pudding, while my husband's favorite was the sweet and spicy butternut squash. Our kids got the kids' portion of fish and chips, and they made a pretty good dent. I would highly recommend checking this place out!

We have found that it is difficult to find a porter or stout in London, so we had to stick with Guinness, too bad. For a lighter beer, the Hoegarden isn't bad. They do have a good menu with burgers and pizza, but I decided on the homecooked pie with sweet potato, spinach and goat's cheese. It was served on a layer of green peas and mashed potatoes with a side of delicious onion gravy. The service was great. We got our food quickly and the bartender let us sample a few beers.

The place is…read morevery throw back in the sense it has old school 90s rap playing for music and a New York City vibe to it. I was sat immediately and chatted with a few of the waitresses who worked there to see what they liked and what was popular. I ended up going for the Mac Daddy I believe it was called. I also opted for the lamb fries and thank god I did!!! I have to say those were possibly the best fries I've ever had in my life. They are covered in a jalapeño sauce that isn't too spicy, but has excellent flavor. The fries basket was also covered in red peppers and a lot of lamb. Seriously, the fries were divine. The burger was also good, but I'd recommend you ask for it cooked well...there was a lot of pink left in the middle of it (a little too much for my liking). I had a few beers that hit the spot as well. This place has great food and excellent service, I highly recommend it!

What an amazing place! There are theatrics, cocktails, ambience and, of course, Detective Mitch! We…read morehad so much fun at the Evans & Peel Detective Agency from the minute we rang the bell to the photos taken at the end as we left. We found this speakeasy on Yelp and didn't have reservations but got in anyways. The entry door is very subtle and once inside you need to plead your case to gain entry. Your case would be a mystery you are working to solve. We had a lot of fun with this part and our improv skills were put to the test. After being allowed through the secret entrance, you enter a 1930's prohibition style well decorated bar. All the staff are dressed the part and act the part. The drinks are in a casebook style booklet and have handwritten descriptions of the choices. We each had a couple of the drinks and really enjoyed them. The staff even comes around and mingles with you if you want. Most of the talk is the acting about your case or the general conversations of the Prohibition era. We really had fun here and were laughing a lot and found the experience very stimulating. I highly recommend going here when in London. It is a super fun experience.

Place is small, and has a cool Kensington urban look. Dropped back by few evenings later, ordered, and can only say WOW! Meat has amazing flavor and creatively prepared, bun fresh and also amazing, and the toppings were unique and...well...you know the drill, amazing! Onion rings were top notch, and the service was friendly and attentive. Seems that London can be a bit hit and miss when you stray from the standards...but GMK is a definite hit, and well worth searching out! Now if I can just find the pic of the burger...or did I eat it too quickly?

I ordered the basic cheeseburger and I don't think the meat was of particularly high-quality. Also, it was cold. I also ordered their limited time only roasty tater tots. When I went to pick them up, however, they had run out of tots, and so they gave me a pile of french fries that I could dip in the gravy. Not exactly the same thing, but I thought I'd give it a shot. The fries were cold, so it didn't really much matter. The gravy was also cold. The gravy would probably be good if it were served at room temperature let alone hot. Food temperature and quality aside, the right thing to do would have been to refund the cost of the tots, not try to substitute fries without my agreement. If I had the chance to do it over, I'd skip this place.

After 11 days in Italy we found ourselves craving something besides pasta. We needed something…read moreother than pizza. We needed a burger. Enter Byron's. Located right across the street from the Gloucester Road station it's really easy to find. And around 12:30 on a Sunday there were plenty of seats. Byron's is modern, yet comfortable. Staff is friendly and they make up a mean burger. Both the Hubs and I ordered the BYRON Burger - with bacon, cheddar, shredded iceberg, tomato, red onion and Byron sauce. At £9.25 the dish doesn't come with fries which is a bit of a bummer, and in turn a bit expensive. But we made sure to add a couple sides to try. The fries (£2.95) were mighty tasty. The order come in a nice size bowl that's easy to share. We also ordered up the courgette fries (fried zucchini sticks) (£3.25). I didn't love these...I guess I'd rather just stick to fresh/crisp zucchini instead of fried. Hubs liked them though. We ended with milkshakes to go. Yum. We spent about £32 ($55) on two burgers, two sides and two shakes. Which, generally, is a bit expensive for us but overall - Byron's a really good meal. Burger was seasoned nicely and cooked as asked. Soft bun. And I'm usually not fan of "secret sauces" but this one is really tasty, don't go without it.
