Fantastic service: excellent welcoming staff - from the moment we arrived, the team made us feel genuinely welcome. The food was beautifully presented, and the atmosphere was warm and relaxed (excellent ambiance music ) . We will definitely return.

I treated my sister & had the BEST time. George was our server & his service was exceptional. Good advice on what to get, always nearby if we needed him & gave us such a good review of the hotel, we’re scheduling to book a night & use the spa.

This is such a wonderful hidden gem in the heart of London's West End, with two entrances that you could walk past a thousand times and never realise what they lead to. This was my sixth visit in 6 weeks. I can't fault the service, the ambience, the menu or the very extensive wine list; and the cheese is just great. Cork and Bottle is great for lunch, dinner, pre or post theatre drinks and is just a nice place to drop into any time to escape the awfulness of Leicester Square. Prawn Tempura was a highlight yesterday, as was the Orange Muscat with our cheese. Thanks again for a great lunch.

Frog Monday’s… ⭐ From the welcome to the food and service, every element was superb. This is the best of tasting menus and a fantastic wine pairing which was handpicked for each course perfectly. Jose and Cleverson Thank you 🤩

Our first 2 star Michelin restaurant. The food was amazing and never seemed to stop coming. Beyond the food, the staff was amazing. My fiancée and I had conversations with so many wonderful and amazing people.

We had a lovely time having afternoon tea for my mother's 80th birthday. 2 additional glasses of champagne were very expensive, so that was a bit of a shock when the bill came! I did find it a little pricey for what we actually ate and drank, but we all had a fabulous afternoon and the tearoom itself is spectacularly decorated and the service was impeccable!
