Review of Cyprus Mangal

Delicious 
This place is amazing whether you want to have a quick takeaway or eat in. Rumour was they were extending the downstairs as they were constantly having to turn away business! The shish kebabs are delicious and the staff very friendly.

Review of Seafresh Fish Restaurant

Overpriced 
Certainly not the best fish or chips i've had, and overpriced for what you get. Should decide if they want to be used for quick eats or dining experiences.

Review of City Cafe

Great for Sunday Lunch
Great for Sunday lunch. You can spend hours there eating at your own leisure. There;s a buffet salad bar with more than just salads. The black pudding, lyonnaise potatoes and bacon starter is fab! Then there's a carvery. I wish there was more gravy and the potatoes could be better roasted but who cares when you have so much to choose from for dessert! Puddings, pastries, jelly, cake, ice cream. What a choice, Great for kids and great value for money.

Good after work drinking 
The Garrick is good for after work drinking, although i have to admit i'm yet to try the food! Worth giving it a try if you work in the local area.

Review of Gordons Wine Bar

Cheese and Wine 
You can't really go wrong with this place. Don't be put off by the facade the place is awesome. Descend the creaky stairs and you are confronted with lovely cheeses where you can get a selection with bread and pickles for under a tenner. Turn the corner and choose a wine. They only sell wine and have a great choice. The place is always busy so be prepared to stand but if you can get a seat enjoy the atmosphere of the arched and low roof and candlelight. It's great for the winter, but even better in summer when you can stand outside and take in a view of embankment gardens. I've taken friends from out of town here and everyone loves it! I can't fault it!

Review of Freuds Cafe Bar Gallery

Slumsville
I had my handbag knicked here and found the staff really unhelpful about the whole thing. However, i was unimpressed by the place anyway and am baffled as to why it is so crowded. The toilet can compare with the one from trainspotting. You have to roll your trousers up to stop them getting soaked, and you'll be lucky to find loo roll. The drinks are ok, but i couldn't really enjoy them as i just wanted to get out of there!

Review of Bar Italia

Great coffee, great people
I love this place.They kept me going when i used to work overnights. Open until all hours they serve great coffee in a friendly manner. The decor doesn't try to impress but at least it's genuine. Forget your chain coffee houses where they don't know the difference between a latte and a cappucinno - these guys knows their coffee and serves it in an appropriate cup (as opposed to a bucket). They've started putting music on really loud and installed TV's which is a bit off putting but i still like to go on a Monday with a newspaper!

Review of Oriel Brasserie

Boozy Lunches
Went with the girls for a spot of shopping and a boozy lunch. Was enough on the menu to keep everyone happy - vegetarians, skint students and food afficionados! I had the sea bass which was great although a little filling for a lunch. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and entertained us while we waited 5 minutes for our table. The plate of desserts available on the menu is great for guilt free sharing. And once you've finished there's loads of shops around to help you burn off those calories!

Review of The Chelsea Brasserie

Ok for lunch
If you've had enough of shopping, or never intended to do any anyway then this place is great. Steak Berneaise was very enjoyable but difficult to see as the place doesn't get much light. Service was sleek and professional but not very personal.

Good on Fridays
Been here lots after a few post work drinks and the staff are very accommodating. Lamb shank always looks delicious but i always bottle and go for a balti! Lots of extras come with like naan bread, rice, daal and so on. Cold beer and curry - what else can you ask for?
