The event room at the Lansdowne was the perfect venue for the pub quiz we hosted, for about 30 people. It was recently renovated and looks beautiful. The team was great at communicating everything prior to the event, such as to pre-order food and set up tables. Everything was exactly as we asked when we arrived, the food was tasty, and they were quick to fill orders on the day. We had our own bartender in the room, Poppy, who was completely on-point. We were there one of the hottest days of the year and they put out plenty of ice water to keep everyone cool. We had so much amazing feedback from our whole group about how wonderful the pub was for our evening!

Sunday Roast was amazing! Portion sizes were great and price was extremely reasonable too. Everything was cooked to perfection! First roast dinner of the season and it did not disappoint, I will definitely revisit. Service was a three only because you order everything at the bar so wasn’t much interaction with the staff besides receiving the food - not a criticism!

Above the average British pub in terms of food. Many tables outside for those fee sunny days. We chose to eat the chicken sharer and everything tasted great. Sweet ports potato fries and humus were excellent. We also had a Caesar salad with anchovies. Service was fast and everyone very polite and always responsive to our requests. I would definitely go back.

Lovely spot to spend a summers evening sitting out in the sunshine for a drink but unfortunately the food experience was awful. It took 1hour 20 minutes to arrive to our table and the quality was terrible. The roast was lukewarm and felt like it was sitting in the kitchen for 30 minutes meanwhile the pizzas and flatbread were served undercooked. I found staff member who served us behind the bar very cold but the staff serving us outside were nice and apologetic. Overall a nice spot but very disappointing for food.

We visited the Pembroke Castle after celebrating a birthday and ended up spending some time in the pub’s outdoor garden. The pub is not far from the Northern Line and is just north of Primrose Hill, so it’s in a convenient spot if you’re exploring the area. The garden was absolutely packed when we visited, but if you book in advance, you can reserve a space, which is definitely worth doing if you’re coming with a group. It’s nothing particularly fancy, but that’s not really the point. It’s a relaxed place to have a few beers, grab something to eat and enjoy the outdoor atmosphere. We had a couple of beers, with prices pretty standard for London, roughly £7 to £8 per pint. We also ordered a pie to share. The portion was a reasonable size for one person, and the food was perfectly fine, although nothing particularly memorable. We also tried the corn ribs, which were probably the weakest part of the meal for me. They could have had much more flavour, and I didn’t find that the sauces added much to them. I think they would be much better if they were properly grilled or cooked over a barbecue, which could give them a deeper, smokier flavour. Overall, though, we had a good time. The main attraction is the garden and the relaxed pub atmosphere rather than the food. It’s a nice place to meet friends, have a few drinks and spend a summer afternoon or evening, especially if you’ve managed to book a table outside. Nothing spectacular, but a solid pub and a pleasant spot near Primrose Hill.

Today we went to this lovely pub in Primrose Hill and the Sunday roast was exceptional. The wine and the cheesecakes were also delicious. A big thank you to all the staff, and especially to Anita for her kindness and availability, even though I booked a table at the last minute. We will definitely be back!

All was perfect. I was there at Easter and I had the Sunday Roast (Lamb shank). It was delicious. The environment was cosy and comfortable. The service was good and the waitresses were friendly. Thank you for making our Easter Sunday a fabulous day!

One of the best pubs in London! Has a really lovely local and friendly feel. The pub garden is especially lovely, and really family friendly for an afternoon pub lunch! The staff are fantastic, super friendly and can't do enough for you. Special mention to the manager Ed, who is brilliant! The wine selection is excellent for a pub! And the menu is amazing! Would recommend the 5 small plates! We had nachos and 5 small plates to share and it was all absolutely delicious! Bathrooms are great, clean and tidy with baby changing area too! The inside of the pub is really airy and cosy at the same time. Great view out looking onto the pretty high street. Would highly recommend this pub to anyone!

Me and my friends had a really good experience at the restaurant. The atmosphere was lovely, the staff were friendly and attentive, the drinks were great, and the food was really nice too. Overall, a great evening and we would definitely come back.

Well I’m going to keep this short and to the point avoid this place if you’re looking for any other than authentic Caribbean food. Order Ebony wings for our starter followed by jerk chicken with rice and peas. The jerk chicken tasted exactly the same as the ebony wings and the rice and peas just tasted of coconut. The only thing I can add is the cocktails were nice and our server was also very kind and attentive.

I’ve really enjoyed Cottons, the staff Austin and Shekhar were exceptional. The Zombies that they made for us were the best we’ve ever had. The food and service were absolutely 10 out of 10. I would recommend anyone to come here.

The carrot cake on the dessert menu was not the traditional cake. Moreso some type of sponge. Need to reword the menu text. The drinks were overflowing, definitely got value for money. The waiter was very professional, great service. I used to go to this restaurant in the 1990s so glad to see it is still ongoing.

Lovely, Cosy place for Amazing Carrabian Food and Rum based cocktails. They have; Happy hour/deals, offer Halal and Vegetarian options, and the cocktails are very good. Alex, The Bar manager, is very experienced and can offer you off the menu items if available, so don't be afraid to ask. The Music and vibe is on point, feels like your at a raggee fest ever time you go in. I recommend the Meat platter or Curry Mutton, whixh i got on this occasion. Very tender meat and the rice was well cooked. The Rum punch is what most people go to drink, so its a must try. Overall one of the best Carriabian joints in Camden

Really awesome place. Staff came to greet and are very talkative and facilitating. Ensured I have been served well and went the extra mile to make sure I was having a great meal. Owner greets and has a nice chat with all the visitors, very personable service. The burger meat is of very high quality and presentation of my truffle oil fries was good. Milkshake was pretty nice too and they serve a peculiar east London beer called E1 Brew Co IPA. Overall great vibe and very clean! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a pick me up in the area! Better than all the chains and personable service is always the key to building communities. Very impressed and will be visiting again for afternoon tea!

So, I desided to go for two small Burgers instead of a normal sized one since that's that whole premise of the place, but I would recommend getting a normal as the potion is very small. Went with a Puerto Rica style chicken burger and a bacon and cheese cheeseburger ect. Over all decent place to get a premium style burger for a date night ect. Fries were really good and morish. Service was amazing and the manger/(owner?) Was very welcoming and hospitable. Very good vibes. Again, only issue is the portion size for the sliders as people may be disappointed in them as 1 bite each and there gone. Decent pints avaible to
Philosopical Wolf - a year ago

Lovely little place with delicious food and friendly service. It drops a star for the eye watering prices… a small burger with NO chops and a beer came to £24! How about £4.99 for the slider and £9.99 for a burger? I was also confused as to why the cheaper Slider was not available when there was no mention of this on the menu? Overall, very nice food but not for those on a budget.

We purchased a wowcher for this little gem in chalkfarm. We arrived just as the bar was opening. We was greeted by Andrew, who showed us to our table and immediately offered us a 🍺!! Which was brilliant as we thought we would be having bottomless prosecco!! Turned out we could have bottomless beer!!! Andrew went through what our options were with our wowcher. We decided to order 6 different types so we could share them. I must say these burgers 🍔 were absolutely gorgeous! We also got to pick which sweet we wanted with our afternoon tea. The venue itself was having a face-lift so was a little busy and up the wall. However we wasn't put off by this as we had a look around and spoke to the live music manager. It looks like it's going to be a fabulous place and we are looking forward to returning on our next trip to Camden ❤️

Great experience! Booked the burger afternoon tea and loved everything about it, the food is fantastic and the wide range of sliders (including several vegan options) all have their own unique flavours. The owner is very friendly and attentive. Will definitely be returning.

Really enjoyed my meal here! Had the half grilled chicken with chips — chicken was juicy, nicely seasoned, and came with a generous portion of chips. Service was quick and friendly, and the price was very reasonable for the area. Nothing flashy, just good honest food done well. Would happily come back!

Ordered biryani but got something closer to pulao. It lacked the authentic flavor and preparation of a proper biryani. Very disappointing.

A fine return for the Barfly last night. Lovely to see Chris McCormack onsite and the venue is undoubtedly in safe hands. Aircon, upstairs and down, worked a treat even in the heatwave. Bar prices were ok but they don’t take cash, so no beer for me alas. Sound can be reduced by at least 10dB. I wore earplugs even for Frank’s acoustic set (!) Can’t wait for another gig - and hopefully for a few of Dan’s DJ sets..?!

Came to a show here. This is a nice venue for live music. Room is upstairs. Toilets at the top of the stairs. Staff were really good behind the bar and the security polite. Stage lighting and sound we're good enough They have a dispenser for ear plugs at the bar.

First visit after a long time and this remains an awesome venue for loud gigs and good view from nearly every point. There is a bottleneck at the entrance as merch is sold near the exit, but it's ok as it's the main source of income for most artists. Very professional security, cloakroom available, entrance to the music venue is round the corner (not the same of the pub that is opposite Morrisons).

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ BUK Camden is an Absolute 10/10 – Worth Travelling For! I’ve been to BUK Camden probably 100 times already and I don’t even live in Camden or London in general. I travel over 45 minutes from out of town every time, but it’s genuinely that good and always worth the journey. The spot itself is brilliant a nice small, cosy, and modern vibe with everything looking super clean inside and out. It’s right next to Camden Markets in a prime touristy location, and I have zero complaints about the appearance, hygiene, or overall feel of the place. It’s exactly what you want in a busy area like this. The food is consistently outstanding. I’ve never left without getting the truffle mayo fries they are easily some of the best fries I’ve ever had in my life (you can see from the pictures and videos I’ve attached to this review). Crispy, perfectly seasoned, and that creamy truffle mayo takes them to another level. Their chicken burger is one of the best things that has ever gone in my mouth – juicy, flavour-packed, and cooked perfectly every single time. The smashed burgers are also excellent, with that great char and all the right toppings. Honestly, there hasn’t been one single item I’ve tried here that wasn’t delicious. Everything is fresh, generous, and full of flavour. The staff are always very nice and accommodating, even when the place is busy. They make you feel welcome every visit. Address: 8 Ferdinand St, Chalk Farm, London NW1 8ER The only minor thing is that, being in the heart of Camden Markets, parking can be tricky. There is street parking right outside, but you have to pay for it and the spaces get taken very quickly that’s how busy the area is. I strongly recommend travelling by train or tube if you’re coming to Camden Markets or the area in general. All in all, BUK Camden is a straight 10/10 spot. Incredible food, great vibes, and consistent quality every time. If you’re anywhere near London, make the trip – you won’t regret it. I’ll keep coming back as long as they’re open. Easily one of my favourite burger places in the city! 🍔🔥

Service here is quite limited as there is no seating and ordering is done online, but the process itself is straightforward. Collection is easy and they will let you know when your order is ready, so no real issues there. The chips were nice, well seasoned and enjoyable. The smash burger was okay, but it was missing a proper crust on each patty which would have added a lot more flavour and texture. The chicken burger was a bit of a let down, not very flavourful, quite small in size and nothing particularly special compared to other places. Prices are on the higher side for what you get, which makes it harder to justify given the quality. Overall, probably not somewhere I would go out of my way to visit again, but it’s not the worst option if you are in the area and want something quick.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Burger UK on Ferdinand Street in Camden, and it was an absolute delight. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with friendly smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. The star of the show, of course, was their burgers. The Smashed Burger was a true masterpiece, with a perfectly seared patty that was bursting with flavor. The toppings were fresh and complemented the burger wonderfully. I also tried their Chicken Burger, and it was equally impressive – tender, juicy, and seasoned just right. The chicken tenders were a pleasant surprise; crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, they made for a great side dish. The service was top-notch, with the staff being attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The ambiance was relaxed, making it a great spot for a casual meal with friends or family. I highly recommend Burger UK on Ferdinand Street if you’re in the mood for some mouthwatering burgers in Camden. It’s a hidden gem that deserves more recognition. I’ll definitely be returning for more burger bliss!

Visited Buk Camden and it did not disappoint! We ordered the Pulled Brisket Burger and the House Special, paired with Truffle Fries—and everything was absolutely amazing. The truffle fries were a real highlight, crispy, aromatic, and not overpowering. A great side that complemented the mains perfectly. The place itself is super cozy with dim lighting, greenery, and a relaxed vibe—perfect for a chill meal out. Great portions, top-quality food, and definitely worth the money. Highly recommend if you're in Camden and looking for a proper meal that hits the spot!

After hearing glowing recommendations from my family, who have been frequenting this place for the past five years, I had high expectations. Unfortunately, my visit today left me feeling quite disappointed. The burgers were overly salty, the chips were average at best, and the prices were steep for what was offered. While the food was decent enough to eat and the service was good, the quality didn’t justify the high cost. If the prices were more reasonable, it could be considered a decent spot for a meal. My family, who have always loved this place, even gave feedback to the staff, noting that the standards have noticeably dropped. What was once a favorite spot in Camden now feels like it has lost its charm. Sadly, it’s nothing special anymore.

Went there for the 2 for 1 Happy hour on cocktails and some light bbq meals. Not to pricy, and the drinks along with the service where good. Atmospheres a bit quite, never seen the venue bussy to be honest. Recommend the Pulled Pork Bun and Amerretto Sour/Gin Fizz or Margaritas

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I visited Borden’s on Chalk Road to try their new menu and was genuinely impressed. The pulled pork burger and fries were outstanding — full of flavour and cooked perfectly. The restaurant has a modern, welcoming feel, and the value for money is spot on. The staff were friendly throughout, and the service was excellent. Special mention to our waitress, who was not only professional and attentive but genuinely added to the experience. Overall, a fantastic visit. I’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommended.

Absolutely above and beyond! I requested a birthday surprise for my boyfriend and the two ladies running the restaurant absolutely smashed it with a stunning cake including a candle and song! Food was lovely and well priced Thank you so much you’ve made his birthday trip so special 🩷

I used to be a big fan of Bodean’s, especially the Soho branch, which I remember serving juicy, flavour-packed BBQ with great service. So when I happened to spot a new Bodean’s in Chalk Farm – ironically where a vegetarian restaurant once was – I thought I’d give it a try, especially as I was feeling a little peckish. The interior is quite nice – not too dark or overly American-themed like the Soho location – and the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful. Sadly, that’s where the positives end. I ordered the pulled pork and burnt ends, a combination I’ve loved before. Back then, the pork was moist and the burnt ends had just the right crisp char on the outside while staying tender inside. This time, however, was a completely different story. The pulled pork was painfully dry – like shredded wood chips – and the so-called burnt ends were nothing of the sort: just tough, dry cubes of meat drowned in BBQ sauce. To make things worse, the whole dish was lukewarm at best. I noticed the woman at the next table actually sent her food back, saying it was completely cold – which mirrored my experience too. On top of that, the portion was noticeably smaller than what I remember from past visits. Given how disappointing the food was, I wasn’t too upset about eating less – but it’s still worth noting for those expecting the hearty BBQ plates Bodean’s was once known for. These days, London has so many excellent BBQ options, and if this is where Bodean’s quality now stands, I won’t be rushing back. A real shame.

These guys are really trying. The burgers are fine but not remarkable. My main objection is that the place is covered with AI-generated signs that don’t make sense. Specifically, they have a sign showing that if you buy three burgers, you can get a 4th burger for £1, and yet the price difference between 3 and 4 burgers is £3.98. It’s nonsense and makes me not want to come back.

Attracted by their menu displayed at the door. Price wise, it could be one of the places offers the cheapest burger in the city. I walked in and was received by a friendly gent who turned out to be the chef making the burger. Instead of ordering their lowest price burger, I went for their B.itch Burger which came with two beef patties and a hash brown in it. Not a bad deal for £8.5. They probably did not have a licence to sell alcohol on premises but I was led to the adjacent bar where I could have a pint of Guinness for £9 and the burger. The bar was a cozy place with music played on the projector screen.
