Brawn

The best in East London.

About as good as it gets. Never had a bite of food at Brawn that wasn't delicious, a glass of wine that wasn't excellent or service that wasn't charming and friendly. I work as a restaurant manager and go here when I need to remind myself why I do what I do.

Very good! The food is amazing! And we enjoy the cozy environment as well

Was our last meal in London and my best meal of my vacation. Incredible.

Our favourite restaurant, which is saying something with the choice available in Hackney & Shoreditch. Always come on our anniversary. Amazing again thank you!

My only comment would be that it was my third time having the burrata and I have much preferred the combinations on the previous two occasions - but - always a pleasure in this restaurant!

Excellent ambiance and food, with a great team!
Highly recommend for a great time out

My partner and I went for lunch and it was delicious as always! The food was amazing and the wine fantastic! The staff is always very friendly and helpful with the food and wine selection! It is definitely our favourite restaurant for a special occasion!

This is one of the best neighbourhood restaurants in London. Don’t miss it.

Fun restaurant good food on a frequently changing menu.
Staff attentive open kitchen so nowhere to hide
Particularly good fish but disappointing cheese plate not worthy of the price

Brawn is a lovely space, and we dined on a nice sunny day which was perfect, as the restaurant is nice and airy. I found some of the dishes nice and others underwhelming, and all quite expensive for what they were. Service attentive but lacking some warmth, I just seemed to get the sense we were a real bother the whole time, for some reason I’m not clear on.

Always fantastic. Wine list epic but pricey. Food quality is close to perfect.

Amazing food, wines and atmosphere as always! One of my favorite restaurants in London!

My lamb entree was great, my dining partner’s pork was tough. It was a good experience and overall I liked it very much.

Lovely service!

I was very sceptical booking this restaurant. The reviews were generally good but also some were bad, particularly about service. For me, they couldn't be more wrong. The service was excellent from start to finish. We were at the table for over three hours and were never rushed. Always people available to help and our main server was friendly, knowledgeable and made us feel special. The food options are all excellent and it was a case of choosing what not to have. Sharing small plates to start is definitely good advice. Wine list is long but there are plenty of options under £40 which is great. The dining room is loud an buzzing. we were in the area overlooking the kitchen which for me is the best part to be in. Can't recommend this restaurant enough and to top it off, the prices are entirely reasonable.

We love Brawn. Great food, great service, unpretentious, always a treat.

Triple A
Delicious food
Amazing wines
You see that all the crew is committed to give you a great experience!

Friendly, helpful staff. Yummy food (my only suggestion is that the cod dish needed a bit more flavour), great service, lovely ambience, buzzy vibe. Would definitely go again!

A fav in the neighbourhood. Love the food, service and ambience. We try to avoid dinners (cause very noisy) but launches are great!

Hits all the high notes. Great location, lovely staff, and fantastic food. What more could you want.

A very nice restaurant with a lot of different dishes. Mostly very locally produced. Good pricing.

Wonderful food, wine and service. It was perfectly paced and we'll definitely be back!

The food on offer was thoughtful, nicely presented and great tasting. Watching the team work in the kitchen as we ate was a treat too.

Loved everything about Brawn. Ultimate favourite.

Almost everythinv was super good, especially the Cod. Only dishes that were so-so were the deserts. And their wines are a bit particular, but that’s of course really dependant on your taste. Overall great place with nice decor, friendly service and delicious food

I love this restaurant, it never disappoints food wise and the staff are brilliant. The wine list is extensive but the staff are happy to help with great recommendations. I've only ever eaten in the back room but the atmosphere throughout the entire restaurant is spot on, buzzy without being too loud.

Super Fantastic!
Food, Wine, lighting, music
Allllways an amazing time

Food a pleasure. Our waiter was a wonderful woman from Canada. Good vibes all around. Thank you

A lovely restaurant interior. Food is priced appropriately given how high quality it was - really good Italian leaning menu. The service we received was great. Would recommend and certainly return.

Always great food and excellent wine. The menu rotates but not overly so, which is important because we have many favorite dishes. The staff, whom we've gotten to recognize and know, are consistently wonderful. They can inform equally well on the plethora of lovely wines as on the menu. It's one of our absolute favorite local spots.

Traveling from the states, I felt well taken care of. The staff are amazing and made me feel at home after coming off a ten hour flight. Killer vinyl collection and great natural wine list. Food was fantastic as well.

Really great overall experience. We chose 7 dishes to share and they were all super tasty, beautifully plated, fresh and fun. Service was also spot on. Any questions were answered confidently and with charm. I’ll be back soon.

Absolutely couldn’t fault the experience. Perfect food, service and pace. First time here and can’t wait to come back.

We had a lovely lunch celebrating my partner's 30th birthday, the staff were friendly, knowledge and attentive without being overbearing and the food was delicious. I consistently recommend Brawn to friends as a fantastic restaurant

Absolutely brilliant food, great wine list and fantastic service - helpful, friendly and knowledgable staff.

We cannot fault the food, everything was absolutely delicious. The highlight was the asparagus with egg yolk and walnuts which so good my husband ordered another portion. So pleased to have homemade drinks offered too, as while I enjoy alcohol I can't tolerate much, the ginger beer was delicious, as were the wines by the glass. Staff all very knowledgeable and helpful a real neighbourhood gem.

An absolute gem of a restaurant in every aspect. In my top 5 favourite London restaurants

Excellent food. Service just a titch slow. Fairly priced and interestingly curated wine list

Very nice local spot with an exciting menu and outstanding food.
