First time here and I was really impressed with the food. The flavors did blend in so well. A favorite restaurant from our host friends. The fish main was exquisite and tasty. Well recommended.

Love this place. We found it on the off chance last year while driving home through Kew and went back today, and it was just as good.
The area is really nice and the restaurant has an authentic French feel. Staff are all friendly and helpful, and the food was fresh, well presented, and super tasty. The liver was soft, perfectly cooked and tasty, the Hake was fresh with a lovely prawn sauce, everything was amazing.
Thank guys, I'm sure we'll be back.

Starter: Homemade soup of the day
Main: Rib Eye Steak (Medium Rare). Be Aware: £7 suppliment required (fact up-to-date on day of review)

Very well cooked food, French classics. Service a little too keen to clear away mid meal, but the food is very well done. Not inexpensive, but a good Sunday lunch option

Never been here before and we weren't disappointed. I had the duck and it was delicious, I don't usually have dessert but we decided to have the crepe suzette and the apple tart. Both were delicious, my friend said she could eat them again. They have a good selection of wine too. The staff are friendly and add to the atmosphere. I'd recommend booking because it was busy.

Great! We live nearby and have eaten here many times over the years. The food is always amazing and freshly prepared. For breakfast we regularly take the eggs Royale. For lunch I have had the fish cake, pie, chicken burger and pizzas and can recommend them all. It is not the cheapest restaurant in Kew but the atmosphere is great and the food very good quality.

Decent atmosphere but well below par and pricing well off.
The reality is it’s just way way overpriced for what is very average food.
My order: Smashed Avo on toast (£12.50!!), plus one very small poached egg (+£2.50), plus some chorizo (+£4.00) making at total of = £19 for the meal in the photo attached… that’s outrageous…. The quality is very average (5/10).
Partner ordered the sweetcorn fritters (£16.50!!! Mental) with bacon. Bacon came out black so had to send back. Waitress rolled eyes when I asked for some less carbonated bacon…
In summary - average food, 30% overpriced, average staff.
Coffee was decent however.
Alexander Ross - a month ago
The food was okay, but the service was very slow. The wait staff appeared to be taking to each other/joking around rather than waiting on tables. Saw my server drop the sugar container used by customers to add sugar to their drinks to the floor and pick it up and put it back without cleaning it. Quite concerned about food cleanliness standards/ hygiene training among staff after having witnessed that. Takes the cake when you have to pay 15% for poor service. Would have no issue if the service was actually good.

We were rather underwhelmed by this place. The food is good, but not outstanding and it certainly does not meet the high prices. We (two adults and one child) tried the pizza, which was fine, three starters, the Whisky & maple cured pork tomahawk, duck fat chips and one glass of wine and this came to over £90. The pork was around £25 and it was basically a few cuts of meat and two bits of grilled corn. It certainly didn't feel like a £25 entrée. Value for money for us wasn't there and the service was average.

I’ve been coming here for 5 years but have felt let down by it recently. I tried to give it one last go and was so disappointed. The new evening menu is overpriced and the 3 meals that came were not worth there price, the picture is for Taco’s at £26! They told us 5 things on the menu weren’t available, including the reduced pizza choice because there was no ‘pizza chef’. The service was clumsy and slow, with the final final frustration being the automatic addition of 15% for service on overpriced food. The UK has minimum wage for all industries and I chose not to pay it. We need independent restaurants in the village but they need to provide a good experience.

Lovely place for an afternoon tea. The red velvet cake is so good! Earl grey tea is great! Ambience is cosy. The shop front looks small, but they have lots of sitting area inside and even an outdoor garden at the back, lovely!

It was busy when I got there, and definitely easy to see why. The barista still took the time to give everyone some latte art in their coffee. Really nice place to visit.
Bunmi Hazzan - 5 months ago
decent place for takeaway food, sandwich and desert I had worth both very good . coffee frappe, was excellent and highly recommend .. some staff good some staff bad , so mixed bag there . one guy in his 30s handling the food was polite and friendly and had good manners , a slightly younger guy taller and a lot of attitude and slimmer was pretty bad took the money no please and no thank you more interested in chatting to the young girl working with them ... Guess he doesn't care that a lot of people don't come back when they are treated rudely ..He needs training .. others wise a decent place ..

Nice latte and mocha. Service was efficient albeit a little brusque. We also got a raspberry brownie, but there was no discernible raspberry flavour. Ambience was relaxing.

Amazing scenic atmosphere by Kew Gardens. We were visiting the area on a quiet rainy day so it was quaint and empty. Really enjoyed the sandwiches and the coffee. Friendly service as well. Great value for the price!

Stopped by for lunch. The owners and staff members were friendly. Ordered fish and chips, and chicken kebab. Both were delightful. The fish was great but the chips were just OK. The price was decent for the amount of generous portion. Both dishes came with some veggie on the side. This restaurant is right by the Kew station.

Very nice and not expensive chips and fish. Love it. You definitely will be satisfied with their big portions.

Battered sausage was soggy and chips had zero flavour and tasted very bland. Overpriced too compared to others near by.

I've never had better fish and chips anywhere else. The cod was so fresh, tender and flaky to perfection, exploding the sweet flavours of the flesh after you break through the crunch of the sumptuous crust. Had the cod roe too, love that quirky side. I was savouring my meal in a nice little seat outside the shop, and a local bloke tells me this is the best fish and chips in London. No argument mate. The only problem was that I don't have more stomach space or more time to taste every fish on their menu. Unexpected gem to end my trip to London.

I seriously love my fish and chips and this was hands down the best fish and chips I’ve ever had in my life.
Everything was completely made to order and boy was it worth the wait.
The batter was so crispy but not greasy and the fish was so juicy and succulent in the middle. It was literally cooked to perfection.
The chips were amazing too. Not to crispy and not to soggy. A perfect blend and you can tell they use really good potatoes.
Really friendly service in lovely little area. Just a shame I don’t live closer as would be here every Friday!
Highly recommend!!

The best fried fish I’ve ever had in my life. The fish was freshly fried. It has a thin and crispy coating and a very tender interior. People there are also very friendly. Absolutely amazing. Highly recommended!

The fish and chips was delicious. We had the haddock and cod. Very fresh. Would certainly go back again. Our server/cook/cashier is very friendly and polite.

Dined in, sitting at one of the tables. Fresh tasting cod and good chips. Crispy batter. Courteous and friendly staff. There’s a small extra charge for dining in (menu in the photo is the dine-in menu). Fish in the photo is a large sized cod. Would recommend 👍

Very lovely place; for my son's sixth birthday, we have scheduled a pizza-making party where the kids can make their own pizza. Alex was a very helpful along with the kids, as well as the Shop Manager, thank you
Ivan Li - a week ago
Came in for the birthday party for my 7 year old daughter. The process was convenient from booking to the day of the party. On the day, Alex helped us and was super helpful and supportive. He kept the kids engaged in the pizza making process and was very kind to help kids who were also a bit late.

The pizza was too hard, couldn't even cut it with the roller they provided at the table and also not with the table knife, it was extremely difficult..
don't remember what I ordered, posting this review after three weeks

Beto was very engaging and made us feel welcome. He was efficient with his service and he busied himself with other duties: making sure anything was ready.
We will definitely be back for more the freshly baked pizza. Thank you

Nice Starbucks! Stopped by to grab some drinks and snacks. Had the Matcha Frappuccino and Peach Iced Tea. Both were great and the baristas/staff members were friendly and very speedy. One of the few stores that open a bit later in the area but with limited seating especially after 6/6:30 PM. Overall it was great and not too crowded while we were there.

The place is very crowded on Sunday, but the drink are totally worth waiting. Had caramel waffle latte with whipped cream, my weekend guilty pleasure. It is very tasty and very sweet
Aleksandra Judina - 8 months ago
Ordered drinks and then 2mins later told "we are closing this section off". Given that the space is limited and some of the available space had the stools already on the table this was a shabby thing to do. This was over an hour before the closing time. The place is run for the convenience of the staff rather than customers. Fortunately there are plenty of alternative coffee shops nearby, so bye bye Starbucks in Kew.
Andrew Hall - 3 months ago
Nice Starbucks near the idyllic key gardens station. Food/coffee is typical Starbucks qualify, however there is a nice big discreet seating area in the back of the store consisting of about 8 smaller tables and seating.

Visited today with my mum for the first time. The food was delicious. The service and staff were really welcoming. The lemon tart was literally the best I have ever tasted which was the desert of the day.
Kathryn Williams - a week ago
Attractive Italian eatery in close proximity to Kew Gardens. Service was friendly and attentive. Although the pasta was well cooked we felt that we could have produced a similar tasting dish at home for a fraction of the price. The orange chocolate cake was luxurious and a decedent was to end a well rounded meal.
The Hungry Foodie - 6 months ago
Rigatoni Arrabiata (pasta) was so delicious! The best pasta I've eaten. Ask for a parmesan, it is better with that!
Pollo Siciliana was also tasty. Refreshing but you won' be hungry.
I really liked appetizer (fresh bread with trimmings)!
Service also 10/10!❤
