Had 14 Feb lunch here, they offer set Valentine's Day menu, 33 GBP per person, without alcohol and drinks. For with that and teas and service charge (12.5) the bill was 82GBP. Ok. Interior is very nice, perfect for a romantic date. Good to have such authentic place in Kew Village. Happy with the food and service. Dessert chocolate creamaux was great, good onion soup. At 12am it was empty, people start coming around 1pm. If you have difficulty booking, try to book earlier. Also online booking system lies, try to call them.

We had a wonderful meal last night. The food was delicious. Great French bread and butter. We all had a range of dishes and all were excellent. Good service too. Nice French bistro with friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend

The food was absolutely fantastic. It has literally changed my mind about eating fresh liver, but any of the Sunday lunch options are a good pick. The 1950’s French Bistro atmosphere is charming, and the service was polite and attentive. I would absolutely recommend coming here if you’re visiting the area or the gardens nearby.

I never usually order sea bass but I had the best one of my life here, I couldn't believe how delicate and non-fishy it tasted. We had the three course lunch menu and were absolutely stuffed, the dessert portions were way too big to finish! I would recommend just sharing one dessert.

Had a very late lunch here on Sunday. The place is not too big, not too small, very pleasant atmosphere. 2-courses meal costs 25 GBP, tasted great. I think that's so nice and affordable for this good french cuisine, in London! Would love to try more dishes if I come around Kew Garden again.

A real gem of a place. Authentic Italian pasties and coffee. The food I had was delicious and I had a mocha which was very good. You can tell that everything is done to the very highest standard. Plenty of seating and a garden add to the lovely atmosphere.

The sandwiches were really good, the bread felt very fresh, I really enjoyed my goat cheese sandwich. The atmosphere was great, good music and a very nice seating area inside

The cafe looks cute and my husband's sandwich was ok. But the sfogliatelle that I ordered was dated, not fresh, with smell of fridge and it was ice cold. When I told the male server about it ( could be the owner), they got me a new one from kitchen. That one was fresh. So why not serve the fresh one in the first place? And when they asked me how was the second sfogliatelle, the server acted like they are not the problem but I was. Thanks for the attitude. By the way, please consider cleaning your salt and pepper grinders. The woman server was nice though. Oh, and the price of avocado on toast:( not going back, ever.

Last weekend I visited a cafe located on Station Approach near Kew Gardens, which is about a 10 mins walk from the Underground Station. The cafe offers outdoor seating with plenty of space and has a lovely, cozy atmosphere. Inside, the decor features warm colors, wooden accents, and charming plants that create a welcoming vibe. The walls are adorned with interesting artwork, adding to the overall charm. The staff were very friendly and always smiling. I ordered the Tiramisu and Mocha, and the latte art was beautiful! Both the food and coffee were quite nice. I’ll definitely come back and try other options next time!

Down from Yorkshire we were delighted to find probably the best fish and chips we’ve ever eaten. VERY generous portions of chips ( the large would feed a family of 4) fish and chips wrapped separately so the steam from fish doesn’t make the chips soggy. The chips were perfect - crisp and browned, and somehow not at all greasy. The large cod, cooked with skin on for flavour, coated in a thin, light crisp batter. These men are artists !

One of the best fish and chips spots in London! The haddock with fries was delicious, and the condiments were great quality. I also appreciated that you can sit inside — unlike many fish and chip shops that are takeout only. The staff were friendly, and overall, it’s excellent value for money.
S. Ros - 5 months ago

This place is the real deal. I’ve had fish and chips at “top rated” spots and garden bar blows them all out of the water. We pick up from here 3-4 times a month. Great food and always a friendly face from the staff - can’t beat it.
Max Davies - 5 months ago

We enjoyed every part of the lunch. Indoor seating suite perfectly after long stroll through Kew gardens. No gravy and alcohol but plenty of other toppings/condiments.
Ivan B - 3 months ago

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!!

Amazing food ,honestly one of the best cannellonis and lasagnas we’ve had. And that’s saying something, as we’ve been to quite a few Pizza Express restaurants around London. We didn’t have to wait long for a table, and parking wasn’t a problem at all, which was a big plus. Our server, Alex, was great , very attentive and brought everything out quickly without us having to ask. Thank you Alex Overall, a really enjoyable experience with great food and excellent service. We’ll definitely be back.

I had a fantastic experience at this pizzeria in London. The food was delicious, but what truly made the visit memorable was the outstanding service. Alexis and Beto were incredibly attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. They made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Their professionalism and positive energy elevated the whole experience. Highly recommended!
Marco Coz - a month ago

Amazing experience! Beto's service was top-notch, and the food was incredible—the pizza was perfect and the pollo pesto was delicious and well-seasoned. Highly recommended!

Special shout out to CJ from the waiting staff. From greeting us to allocating us a table to suggesting items from the menu—super professional. One of the best waiting staff we have met in recent times. We were so impressed by the sincerity that we told our daughter to be like her and put so much passion and sincerity into anything you do. Precessional to the core. Thanks CJ

It was an unforgettable experience we had while enjoying our daughter's birthday at Pizza Express with "Make your own Pizza style" by the kids themselves, Amir (The Pizza Chef) was the hero where all the kids follow his simplified instructions to make the perfect pizza. Every chapter of the birthday has been executed perfectally, Many Thanks to Amir.

A cosy, large Starbucks with plenty of seating, although it gets very crowded when school lets out. Pleasant and fast service. The only thing I didn't like was the internet speed, which was very slow
John - 4 months ago

I had such a lovely experience here and want to say a heartfelt thank you to one of your team members, Eugene. After enjoying coffee with friends, I accidentally left my favourite scarf on the sofa. I only realised later, after a walk in Kew Gardens, and thought it was gone for good. When I returned and began to explain, he immediately smiled, gave me a knowing look, and handed it back before I’d even finished my sentence. It may seem like a small act, but that scarf carries many memories, and his kindness meant a great deal to me. Thank you for your attentiveness and warmth — it truly made my day.

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.

An amazing Italian restaurant just a couple of minutes walk from the Kew Gardens station! Food was delicious, staff was friendly and very welcoming. And the atmosphere in general was very cosy and relaxed. They remembered that it was my birthday celebration and put a little candle in a desert I ordered. And by the way, that canoli was simply devine! 🤩 You can feel it's a family run restaurant. It was our first time at this restaurant, and if I'm ever in the area I'll definitely go back there (and I hope that the canoli will be on the menu again. I can't stop thinking about it 😉).

Went to Q Verde with my mum and grandparents for Monday night dinner and had the best time! Geraldo greeted us at the door before giving us the choice of where to sit and taking our jackets to hang up for us. Once seated we got given menus in which all the options were fabulous (if I could have had it all I would)! Whilst looking at the menu we were given the most amazing breadsticks to nibble on and Geraldo was kind enough to give me another packet as he could see how much I was loving them! We ordered drinks and my mum asked if they had cider as that is my favourite, they did not, however, about 2 minutes later, Geraldo came back with a cider from the shop next door for me! He was the most excellent waiter and did everything possible in order to ensure we had the best time at Q Verde as possible! To start, we had the calamari, garlic mushrooms, scallops and garlic bread. They were all delicious, but i would particularly recommend the garlic mushrooms. For main, I had the Tagliatelle al gamberoni (which was some of the best I had ever had), and zucchini fries as a side (which were also excellent). Finally, for dessert, we got a Tiramisu to share which, once again, was delicious. Thank you so much to everyone at Q Verde, especially Geraldo, we will definitely be coming back!

This place was my absolute highlight from my visit to Richmond. The Garlic pasta was to die for and the service was bar none. Amir and Geraldo looked after us so well and it was truly a pleasure speaking to them and eating their wonderful food. I was so hungry that didn't get to take proper pictures of the food. But highly recommend going here. Do try their Garlic pasta and tiramisu. 5*s all the way

This is a special place, a hidden gem. The food is consistently ultra fresh and authentic, the ambiance is comfortable and warming, and the staff is like an Italian hug. We literally ate here 6 nights a week for months. I overheard a gentleman at another table say he flew from Boston to eat here. I can see why. We will miss the warmth of this Italian gem 💎 terribly. Not goodbye 👋 just see you next time

Delicious food. Lovely location. Great if you have a trainspotter in your friends/family circles as it's right next to the railway station. The decor is fab tying in with the Kew garden theme, the staff were welcoming, friendly and attentive. The bar was full because of rugby 6 nations Game's and the Olympics but the noise and atmosphere was fun and not too unwelcoming or raucous. The indoor dining is in a separate area to the main bar. There were plenty of people sat outside even on a cold February Eve. It seems like it's a local favourite.

Really nice spot for a quick bite or a drink. We had some breads and olives and tapas bits which were delicious and reasonably priced. The waitress who served us was really lovely and accommodating, even though she was running the show solo. Loved the decor too.

Cosy pub with a beautiful eatery by the side of the platform. Good variety of dishes in the menu. Fish and chips was our favorite with crispy haddock and delicious peas.

Great experience! Most of our Food was good, steak tacos was just ok. Out of scotch eggs when we went. Service and atmosphere was fantastic, not too busy on a Thursday afternoon.
Julian Richer - 6 months ago

The perfect pub, especially on a Sunday on a sunny spring day when the magnolias are popping and your nose is a bit cool so you warm up here. Or in winter when the skies are grey but the white lights are twinkling inside. Or sitting outside in summer and laughing a little louder on the third point. Oh kripes, it’s just always good, doesn’t matter when. Their Sunday roast has puffy Yorkshire pudding, meat that makes this vegetable lover cave and a cabbage so perfectly charred I compare all my home versions to this one. Don’t ever change, you glorious little snug.

A real little hidden gem. The cafe is small, cute and cosy, right opposite the station. They offer Japanese meals, teas and cakes / baking. There is a lunch special menu that changes. For me my favourite is the udon with prawn tempura which I really recommend.
Alan Chan - 6 months ago

One of the best little gems in Kew, located next to the station, walking distance to kew gardens and such a wonderful atmosphere. Every time I come here, it feels like the first time again! Thank you Yukari and family, for your beautiful establishment.

The best Japanese food in London. I go for their lunch plate every week.

Such a cute café! The ladies working there were so kind and welcoming. They had a lovely outside area in the sun. I had the iced matcha latte, which was perfectly balanced between bitterness and sweetness 💚
Nicole Boelee - 6 months ago

Love this cafe. Just a shame I live far away. I was visiting the National Archives and researched beforehand what was nearby, and thought this looked good. And I was not wrong. Small selection of Japanese food. All good. We had tea and it was particularly good. Nice & strong, and they offered a free refill (which we took up). We sat outside in the gorgeous afternoon sun. The cafe is located in quiet small square/courtyard, so is a lovely place to chill out. Their opening hours are quite unusual, so you best check beforehand. FANTASTIC, polite service.
