The 30 Best Cocktail recipes in London

“Went there for my wife's birthday dinner and we were so happy with tasty food and excellent service. Drinks from the bar took a while to prepare so eventually we ordered different drinks but other than that everything went well. Happy wife and kids.”

“Truly delicious and exciting food - highly recommend the pani puri and aloo firecracker. We went on a weekday so it was very quiet and a nice ambience. The manager was rude and abrasive to his staff in front of us which was disappointing, but hopefully a one-off.”

“Daniel kept the drinks topped up throughout our bottomless brunch. They do not skimp on the alcohol! We enjoyed everything, especially the truffle honey mustard fried wings! We will definitely be back! Great value for money and the customer service was awesome.”

“Came in with my boyfriend ordered 2 patties for a quick munch. I am usually intimidated by Caribbean restaurants as customer service isn’t always great. But the lady and the man in the shop running the place were so welcoming and polite and lovely and made us feel comfortable. The patties were gorgeous and hot and decently priced. Will only come here from now and can’t wait to try other food. Thank you ! X”

“Fantastic food and customer service! The owner Leke came to speak to us and was super friendly. The range of cocktails were superb with great alcohol ratio. Food was fresh and tasty. I would definitely recommend and will be back to try desert.”

“I had the 6-course menu for lunch, and everything I ate was delicious. I drank a glass of champagne and was pleasantly surprised to have received a cake for my birthday. The service was impeccable, and the setting was beautiful. I absolutely loved it.”

“Delicious Tuscany restaurant in Central London that is worth the price. I had a fantastic time. Beautifully decorated inside with great service. Every dishes were so flavoursome.”

“We recently dine in here. We are vegetarian and keep looking or exploring vegetarian options around. Though the name says London Spice but it is truly Indian Hyderabadi. I found limited options for vegetarians and we mainly wanted to eat biryani rather than curry and roti and I must say it was the right choice to go here. We ordered vegetarian dum biryani and the staff also suggested the portion or quantity of biryani which was very helpful. I must say the quantity given was good along with the quality of food. My child especially likes the biryani a lot, a true authentic Hyderabadi biryani taste. Along with biryani, raita and mirch Ka salan was served which was good in taste. A plate full of dry cut vegetables salad was also served which is typical Indian style and I liked it as you don't happen to see it in many restaurants here. Later we asked for starters in vegetarian and staff suggested chilli paneer, we went with the suggestion and it was up to the mark. Quantity and quality both were satisfactory. I must recommend vegetarian people to try if you love biryani. The staff was so polite and was frequently checking on the quality and other things. 5 star for food and service. I felt a bit of Indian music in the background would have added a feel at home country otherwise everything is perfect. London Spice team you are truly doing a fantastic job by providing us good and home quality food far away from home country. Keep the good service and quality.”

“Very good and filling wraps with a good selection to pick from. Would recommend going for the angry mama chips over the mama chips, as they are nice an spice with extra flavour. Nice take away and eat on the riverbank with a view on Tower Bridge, which is a short walk away”

“I first found Spaghetti House after playing football across the street in Tufnell Park a few years ago, by accident really. What I found with my Dad was an absolute gem of a restaurant. They have a good variety of options food-wise. I usually go for the Pizza, but the Pasta, Calzone and Meat dishes are all good options too. Prices for these meals usually vary between £8-15, so fantastic value. The beers and wine are reasonably priced too. Despite being part of a chain, I have to say that that is not the vibe you get at all in this restaurant. It is homely, owned (at least in part I believe?) by the staff and a hugely relaxing setting to eat in. The food is great, the prices are very good, but the best part of Spaghetti House is without question the service. You are always greeted with a smile, a handshake, and if you're lucky perhaps even a free shot at the end. The restaurant is just opposite the Tufnell Park Dome, which does quite a few gigs around the year. If you're in the area, I would highly recommend popping into the Spaghetti House for a fantastic meal!”

“One of the finest Persian restaurants in London! The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, enhanced by an excellent DJ and live singer who created the perfect vibe for the evening. The service was truly outstanding. Every detail was spot on, and we left completely satisfied with the entire experience. Special thanks to Saeed, who made our night even more memorable.”

“Very authentic Italian food - some of the best I’ve had in a long time, and it was easy to tell that the dishes were fresh and homemade. The pizzas were especially excellent. Overall a very relaxed atmosphere, with very friendly service as well. Would 100% recommend this restaurant if you want some excellent Italian food.”

“Excellent service. All the food was good, but the Miso Aubergine stands out! super smoky and flavourful, highly recommend it! It was my birthday, and the staff made it really special with a little sparkler and shots. The cocktails are all really cool too, with a fun element of theatre at the table. Would come back again!”

“My friend and I enjoyed the Christmas carbonara - it looks, smells and tastes like the festive season! Great amount as well haha we're both feeling stuffed. Rich in sauce and generous in turkey bits. I was worried turkey will be conventionally dry but in fact it's very tender and we are both very impressed. Best turkey ever.”

“A Hidden Gem in Chelsea – Made in Italy If you’re looking for an authentic Italian experience in Chelsea, Made in Italy is the place to be. This cozy, welcoming restaurant perfectly blends charm, flavor, and exceptional service. From the moment you step inside, the warm and friendly crew makes you feel right at home. The service is seamless – attentive without being intrusive, and you can tell they genuinely care about your dining experience. Now, let’s talk about the food. The pizza is nothing short of spectacular – a true testament to the artistry of Italian cooking. Perfectly crisp crusts, fresh and flavorful toppings, and that signature wood-fired taste that transports you straight to Naples. Beyond the pizza, the menu is filled with delightful options that showcase the best of Italian cuisine. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick bite or a leisurely meal, Made in Italy delivers every time. It’s rare to find a spot that ticks all the boxes: ambiance, great service, and unforgettable food.

“Bar with really nice appies, cheese, French mains. Nice interior. Attached to Michelin starred restaurant. Had fois gras and cassoulet. Both excellent. Indoor and outdoor seating.”

“We held a work party in the upstairs room at the Hospital Tavern and it was brilliant! The events manager was fantastically helpful, service was brilliant, and the selection of food and drink available was fab, we didn't scratch the surface of the equipment available (mics, lights, sound etc!) but what we used was great. The pub is in a great location and has a really friendly, fun vibe... also nice late opening hours!”

“We initially came here to try out the cocktails which were delicious, especially the zombie passion fruit. We decided on a taco sharing platter, nachos, buttermilk chicken and bravas for four of us and was perfect, we even had some leftovers. Everything was really tasty. Great service and very efficient.”

“Amazing, amazing surface, amazing food. We were a particularly difficult group, large group of 17 of us, all with complicated needs, I was overwhelmed and they were my family so god knows how they felt. But they were calm, attended to our needs, respectful when they really could have left us too it. The food was incredible, quality and quantity both great, to say we were full is an understatement, we had to take food home! Always a good sign! Would definitely go again, maybe not with my whole family!”

“Lovely little cocktail bar, right in the centre of St Katharine Docks. Worth a visit. Nice tapas style food too.”

“Great place for family party, if you like karaoke and authentic Chinese food，remember to ask for a different version menu, it’s the best , and different from your typical takeaway Chinese!!! Must try Braised beef with potatoes, Dry fried French beans with minced pork with preserved vegetables!!!”

“Went today, it was fantastic. Food was delicious and portion sizes were very generous. We had the chicken platter, everything was cooked well and full of flavour. The restaurant is decorated nicely and is very clean. The service was fantastic and the gentleman that served us was extremely helpful, friendly, polite and professional. Would recommend to anyone and will visit again.”

“Simi’s Secret Kitchen is a secret you need to find! I was lucky enough to be asked to be one of Simi’s testers as she developed & homed in her recipes for her Kitchen Menu. This food journey has been so yummy & the amount of planning and preparation before the food is even cooked has been eye opening. It has taken my love of curry to another level & with Simi's Mum on hand via FaceTime Video calls to just check on Simi, every dish is now simply outstanding. Don’t take my word for it, try it! The biggest kitchen secret you need to try is Simi’s Boondi. Enjoy!”

“A friend recommended me Online Tequila so I checked it out. I ordered the Clase Azul Ultra Extra Anejo because I loved how the bottle looked. It arrived much sooner than I expected, and when I tasted it I was really pleased and could tell it was very high quality, as advertised. Will definitely be buying again!”

“One of the best place to have a sushi! Very fresh, made front of us by very talented chef. Cannot wait to be back! Very clean place, everything was store under cover, fish on and under ice. Prepared carefully. Great atmosphere in a cozy place.”

“My bf and I got the ‘Off the hook’ option to share - so tasty!!! I picked it up for collection, Cee Cee was really nice and approachable. Highly recommend!”

“10/10 experience, we got a variety of different foods and they were all so distinct yet delicious!! The menu has a huge range, there are veggie options as well as spice levels. Would definitely recommend, the pizza and wrap were so nice and the people there are extremely friendly and amicable.”

“Super high quality ingredients. Generous portions. Reasonably priced. Lovely interior. Excellent, friendly service.”

“I had one of the best if not the best pizza this year at this café/restaurant/deli. Everything was perfect. Delicious toppings and outstanding pizza base! Perfect! This place is not fancy but sometimes it's the simplest places that offer the best food.”
