Poplar Restaurants

This was my second visit in a week, and once again, the food did not disappoint, with superb presentation and quality. Our waitress was attentive, courteous, and provided truly excellent service. Unfortunately, we observed a few male staff members standing idly, engaging in behavior that seemed unprofessional and unsettling. One staff member made an inappropriate and derogatory remark about a female customer, which we found deeply concerning. Although we considered addressing it in the moment, we chose to avoid further disrupting our evening and opted to share this feedback with the restaurant instead. Despite this, our waitress's outstanding service was worthy of a tip. It’s disappointing, as this incident marred what could have been a five-star experience. I sincerely hope the restaurant addresses this behavior and reminds its staff that delivering a respectful and professional service is essential. If any employees are unhappy in their roles, they should perhaps consider seeking other opportunities.

We were running late on our reservation but the staff kindly moved our time and accommodated us. The staff were attentive and helpful making the service fluid. In terms of food: Oysters- it’s not too meaty but could be because of season? Not sure but I has better oysters Crab on toast- meaty and satisfying Porterhouse- loved it, cooked the way we like it; we had it with bone marrow and fries and spinach. I find the spinach quite salty though Overall, Hawksmoore did not disappoint

The staff were incredibly attentive and explained the menu to us in detail which was really helpful. It was my partners birthday and they brought him out free sorbet with a candle in and happy birthday written in chocolate which was such a lovely touch. The food was delicious and not over priced. I’d definitely go back

Tge staff are so helpful, kind and happy to make you feel so welcome.

Lovely pizza which I finished off later at home much to my own surprise! Thank you for being such a lovely lunch venue before we went bowling at Surrey Quays!
