    We were a table of 4 and we decided to try out Stoke House. Looks wise, the restaurant is lovely, very modern with lovely furnishings, however that's where the good stops. It took a few minutes to be seated, ignored by 1 waitress and finally got the attention of a reluctant waiter to seat us. A young polite waitress took our orders. Our starters arrived and (full rack of ribs) and the topside of the meat was hot, but the underside was stone cold. We flagged this to our waitress and this was then rectified. Our portion came back bigger, however, again, not both sides were pipping hot however by this time, we were starving and ate away. The mains arrived and not everyone was happy, my main was the beef brisket bun, however, another example of poorly heated up food, as the brisket was blackened around the edges from being dried out for too long, however the middle was nice and tender- a little less mustard next time as there was far too much. Another guest had the steak and ale pie and said there was not enough meat to veg ratio but it was piping hot. The desserts arrived and our banana split was meant to be big enough for 2 however, it was a normal portion, nothing generous. The apple crumble looked appealing however the apples were swimming in water rather than a juice or syrup - disappointing. The final insult was the fact we had to tell the waitress to stop asking us to settle the bill whilst we were midway through our dessert course at 9.30pm (she had tried twice prior). There was no options for coffee. Although we had the rib starters removed the bill and one other item, it was really disappointing. This was meant to be a birthday meal which has left a very sour note on all the guests. We appreciate it was a busy evening (you had a Xmas party) however, as paying guests, we all deserve the courteous attention to service and food. Would not recommend.

    Good things: Service, drinks and atmosphere. Bad things: Starter was the only good thing, the main meat platter was a let down. The steak was cold, chicken was very dry. Everything had LOT of salt and didn't eat 60% of the meat.

    We had a wonderful dinner at Stoke House. The Sunday Roast (beef) was excellent. Veg and trimmings were delicious. Excellent wine selection too. Service was kind and attentive. Don’t miss the sticky toffee pudding!! We ordered an extra one…. Yum! Will definitely return.

    We had the pre-theatre menu for my daughter’s birthday & the quality was very good. Our steaks (medium & medium-well) were cooked perfectly. Pre-dinner cocktail/mocktails were delicious. Buzzy resto vibe & warm, attentive staff.

    Ordinary with an above average price tag. The service was OK, I think the waitress was new so it's understandable there were a few a minor issues, and the rest of the staff seemed nice and capable. It's quite pricey, which I don't mind if the food warrants it, but it didn't this time. The presentation was poor, quality only OK, and serving large roast potatoes without the option of fries with burgers and steaks just looked and seemed odd. Good ambience and decor though.

    Très bon accueil. Deco très sympa. Idéalement situé après la relève de la garde. À seulement 5 min à pied de Buckingham Palace. Plats très bons.
