Trendy bars in London

“Went to dinner, with high expectations! The ambiance is lovely, modern and cozy. Great drinks. Food was good, we both chose pasta dishes, tasty and delicious.”

“Amazing experience- went for brunch with my friend on Sunday and Mahmoud and the rest of the lovely staff really took care of us. The shisha was the best I’ve tried to far and the food and drinks were great. Also, the decor was lovely for pictures. Would definitely recommend and will go again in the near future.”

“I purchased a portion of Jollof rice for £9 to take away - it could have been a slightly larger portion and was saltier than what I was expecting but tasty none the less!”

“I love coming to this place. They have done it up so lovely for the festive season. We had a business meeting brunch and had privacy on our selected table. The staff are welcoming and friendly. The food is always delicious.”

“A must go to restaurant if you're in upminster. The food was amazing, the staff were excellent and very attentive and the atmosphere was great! Will definitely be going back!”

“The staff are extremely polite, friendly and helpful. I went to exchange a pair of jeans and did so without any issues. Fairly expensive but you do get what you pay for. They also offer a tailoring service and there is a Hackett men's barbers next door”

“Had my birthday party here - it was a wonderful experience. Relaxed, tasteful atmosphere, really well balanced cocktails, delicious snacks and exceptional service. Would not hesitate to bring friends here again.”

“Love this place! The staff are adorable, the coffees are good, there’s a lot of space to work on the laptop. I think I tried almost everything on their menu, my fav are the Huevos al Benny, the vegetarian breakfast and their chicken burgers”

“Security super friendly. Always greet us with a smile and never any issues. The staff inside are also cool and drinks are fairly priced. I enjoy coming here every other week.”

“Great bar and great vibes! The bar staff are amazing so nice and great chats. You can guarantee a good night on a Friday and Saturday it’s always busy with great live music. Great baby Guinness’s too”

“Lovely staff some mad customers m Duffy and noel then u have mcfangle good crack really nice atmosphere would recommend”

“Great food, service and value near the Tower of London. As an F1 fan I’ve been to a number of the races. And as a foodie, I’ve eaten in all sorts of places, from chip shops to Michelin star. So, F1 on a massive screen with surround sound and a massive Sunday roast, what better combination? Just around the corner from the Tower of London, it’s a wonderful and history filled walk to The Moretown Belle. Unlike other pubs, you’re greeted at the door by a host, with a warm smile as soon as you arrive. There’s plenty of seating , from booths, high tables and singles to groups. I went with my sister and we both decided to have the chicken for our roast. What surprised me was the variety and amount of vegetables. Fantastic - peas, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. I’m pretty sure we had a whole chicken between us. The plate was topped off with roast potatoes and an enormous Yorkshire pudding. We were true heroes and managed to eat a lot of it , but had to admit defeat. You definitely will not leave this place hungry after that roast. Service was slick and professional. I like the smart uniforms and how nothing was too much trouble. More gravy? A proper gravy boat arrived promptly. More drinks? Table service in a blink of an eye. For a part of London you’d expect to be a tourist trap, this is not. Locals, regulars, sports fans who find it online and book with their mates, families, and now me! It’s lovely to find an independent non - chain pub that really cares about just being brilliant. We will be back!”

“Came for the first time today and now will regularly return to this nail salon. They are all very welcoming and friendly. I felt very taken care of and pampered while getting my pedicure. They made sure i received the very best service they could offer me and were not pushy. They were very clear with what to expect from the pedicure I picked.”

“Such a fantastic place to stay. Came for a Valentine's night away from kids and had such a nice time. The room was big, clean, and had all the expected amenities like soap, shampoo, coffee, tea etc. Place has so many quirky features including our room that had a skylight that looks up to the pavement in the street! It was still private, but just a sight idea of naughtiness makes it fun. Highly recommend.”

“Had an amazing dinner at the restaurant here, truly lovely experience. We were well looked after by Laura C and had a beautiful menu put together by Sandi R. I don't remember the names of everything, but the caviar tacos were amazing, and the salmon. The tuna nigiri was so beautiful. Definitely recommend for a lovely dinner experience.”

“I had a great stay in Montcalm East during a business trip for a week. The hotel has quite a unique touch and at the price point the amenities can't be beat. The rooms are well planned, reasonably sized and the bathrooms are well appointed including the heated flooring. The hot/ cold breakfasts are so much better than the traditional American breakfast that is seen in the hotel chains. Location wise, this place is quite central to all the tourist spots that someone may want to hit.”

“Perfect place. Friendly relaxed staff, great location, laurels on the roof a lovely bright place to spend an afternoon. Pool very small and you’re in view of the diners but cute. Got a great room upgrade through efforts of reception girl from Moldova, don’t remember name..! Had a large roof terrace though not much use in winter, I’d love to come back to it in summer.”

“Very lovely, comfortable and neat room down to the towels! Pleasant welcoming and helpful staff. Great location about two minutes walk to the bus stop and train station. Delicious, mouthwatering and affordable meal in a very clean and hygienic restaurant. I'd place great emphasis on the pleasant and welcoming staff (Malika, Gennaro, etc.) I came in contact with. The staff is the major reason why I'd definitely stay here whenever I am in the area.”

“A simple and cheap option for a short stay in London! Definitely enjoyed my stay here with a McDonald's nearby to grab a quick familiar bite. But the cafes along the street were also really nice! Overall stay here was cosy and nice. The room is clean and the staffs were really helpful!”

“Amazing venue, great events. HMD is the best, best security in any place I've ever been to, Jeff is what all security staff should be like and Roy on the door is always an absolute pleasure..all the bar staff are friendly... love this place”

“The location is ideal for meeting friends and clients. The presence of a large number of comfortable sofas makes our stay more enjoyable. The venue is located in Stratford, London. Fresh and delicious food is served at the restaurant. The team of Anil and his colleagues are doing a great job. The staff was very welcoming. The best restaurant in Stratford, London.”

“Went there on a groupon deal. Comfy setting, lovely food and very good service....their cream teas are also excellent”

“My son recently had his birthday party held here. The food was amazing along with the staff. The staff were very friendly and everyone could tell the food was made with care. The venue downstairs happened to be the best part. It was filled with a DJ booth and a bar a selection of drinks to choose from.The owner set most of the party up and respected all of us. Everyone enjoyed the party and wanted to come back. You should definitely come here! I can't wait to visit again! Well done! Kapture will be my goto for any event in future”

“Really impressed, modern clean rooms, friendly staff and great breakfast. Cannot fault it and one of the best places I've stayed in London at this price range. Just make sure you Google London Bridge and NOT tower bridge or you'll have a taxi ride to get to the correct hotel! Recommended.”

“Such a nice place to be able to go out and enjoy a meal. Staff very friendly and helpful, food never disappoints and the cocktails are amazing. Well worth a visit”

“Had a great night with the family for my daughter’s birthday. Great quality asian fusion food, very fresh tasting curries and good cocktails! It was also to party and dance there after your meal with the resident DJ. Thanks to all the team at Pounding Heart for looking after us.”

“Brilliant place for parties. A great place for small or big parties.. everything was just perfect, Food, music.. Very happy and satisfied with my sons birthday celebration at this Charisma.”

“The food was of very high quality and the service attentive and friendly. Would definitely come back to try more of their pasta! It wasn’t overly busy on Sunday (lunchtime) and there is decent spacing b/n tables. Relaxed vibe.”

“Vrey nice place, the staff were lovely and friendly and the food was amazing.”
