We were leaving the Bloomsbury area of London, about to get an Uber to dinner when we stumbled upon…read morethis great little spot. It was my Husband's birthday and we wanted something cute, as far as appearances go, this was that. Or so we thought. Upon entering the staff was welcoming and the restaurant was nice and warm, since it was cold out. We were seated immediately since the restaurant was relatively empty. So I was surprised when our server asked if we had reservations?.. No, of course we did not. Our Server was bubbly, outgoing and very nice but not very good. She forgot the utensils, and our drink order but there was a second server that was on top of what she didn't do or bring and he told her what we wanted to drink. Before we ordered our meals, I explained to our server it was my Husband's bday so they could prepare something for dessert for him. We ordered a Guinness and a coke zero - served in the tiny bottle with no cup for ice. I did request a glass with ice and one with 2 ice cubes was brought out to me. We started our meal with a dozen oysters that were brought out to our table so quickly, we didn't have a chance to photograph them - they were delicous. I initially ordered the Ribeye but was told it wasn't available, so I ordered the chargrilled sirloin steak. The steak comes served with fries, salad & peppercorn sauce. I truly wish the restaurant would've had the Ribeye because the sirloin steak I ordered cooked medium, came out well done, full of fat and extremely chewy. I'm not really one to send food back, so I let them know but ate it anyway. We also ordered the Chargrilled ribeye Lobster - which is a Ribeye & half Lobster served on hot stone served with salad. The steak here was also replaced by a thin sirloin steak. When it came time for dessert, they brought out the crème brûlée we chose from the menu and we were pretty surprised how terrible that small desert was. It was sweet and had the consistency of a flan, not a crème brûlée. There was no layer of caramelized sugar on the crème brûlée and it just tasted completely wrong. Ultimately, The Shell is a seafood restaurant not a seafood and steak restaurant. They have no clue how to slice or cook steak. The place is cute and the servers are doing their best but the restaurant leaves much to be desired.

This one is tucked away in the heart of South Kensington, between South Kensington shopping centre and the tube station and the Earl's Court section of Old Brompton Road. You'd never find it unless you knew it was there, as Old Brompton Road is hardly a major thoroughfare. It's not far from the south end of Gloucester Road, which leads directly to the main A4 (Cromwell Road). The site is what you could politely call compact (ie rather small) and if there's a queue it tends to back up onto Old Brompton Road. It has one of the small Shell 'Select' shops, selling a basic range of newspapers, food and drinks as well as motoring supplies.

Please be careful when filling up your tank at Morrisons petrol station in Peckham…read more on 15th January 2024 around 3:30pm my husband filled up his car at Morrisons petrol station in Peckham. He has a diesel car and he thought he was using a diesel pump only for his car to break down and then he found out that he had actually put Petrol in his tank. The display on the pump said Diesel and Morrisons admitted that it was the wrong sticker. Morrisons in Peckham are refusing to refund his money. This has caused a lot of hassle as the tank ad to be cleaned. even though Morrison has admitted that they displayed the wrong sticker on the pump they are refusing to right there wrong. WARNING MAKE SURE THAT YOU DOUBLE CHECK Morrison's Peckham pumps because they will not right there wrongs.

With feeling curious, I set off to investigate. I think if you were trying to read a map and navigate it could be tricky to find, but my sat-nav took me straight there, the place itself is also where they convert the cooking oil to fuel so it looked pleasing like the kind of the place where men with spanners do proper head-scratching engineering, out front is a pump where a man fills your vehicle and takes your credit card and a slight smell of cooking oil pervades the air. The fuel itself they assured me is European standard and is fine to use even in a modern common rail diesel car like mine, and as advertised, was cheaper than regular diesel and you could see the place was a fit with local cabbies. all in all I went away happy and they assure me that they plan in the future to have a garage forecourt somewhere that'll make it easier (and hopefully the opening hours longer)
