The Booking Office in Camden

This is a beautiful restaurant in a lovely well restored hotel and for that it is worth a visit. I would note however it is quite dark at night with very low lighting and odd tables. The food was fine - nothing special and as you will see from the menu pretty expensive. Service is a bit weak too.

After my awful experience with the Hansom the evening before at Renaissance hotel I wasn’t very much looking forward to the breakfast I had booked as a treat for my partner and I to end a wonderful Christmas vacation. I couldn’t have been more wrong, such a lovely welcome from lady on front of house, our waiter and servers were so polite, charming and engaging. The breakfast, the ambiance and surroundings were amazing, such a lovely way to end a holiday before getting the train home. Look forward to coming back.

Light snacks at the Booking office, Renaissance at St Pancras. Beautiful building and decor. Only had the cashew houmous because got there quite late so the oysters and tartare wasn't served. Visually saw someone have the tartare which looked good with all those dark trompette mushrooms on top. Will return.

Beautiful venue with lovely lighting, and the staff were polite. Unfortunately the breakfast was poor - Avo on toast with poached eggs, but the toast was just bread, and the avocado was simply a half an avocado on the side of the plate. No lime, chilli, or any other flavours, it was beyond bland and boring. Wildly basic and £16 plus service! Won’t return unfortunately.

It’s a very lovely atmosphere to sit in. Our waiter was kind and cheerful but due to not enough staff, long waits to order and getting our drinks. My biggest disappointment was the £24 charcuterie board! Limp presentation and very little content! Next time we will walk to Coal Drops Yard where the atmosphere is matched and better quality food.

I am a Marriott Bonvoy Member. I booked the Lunch Set Menu (3 Courses for £35) from Marriott.com website. Apparently they have stopped doing this offer a couple of months ago!! It’s False Advertising by DECEPTION!! No Apology or anything of the sort by Anyone!! The Staff Couldn’t Care Less!! Waiter/Steward: (Mr) Tzouliano was Utterly CLUELESS about the Food in the menu!! Anyway we had to wait nearly 45minutes for our Food. Cheeseburger: was pretty basic Rump Steak: Ordered Medium Well; but Arrived Rare-Bleeding!! Absolute Ripoff/Daylight Robbery!!

My family and I came to the Booking Office for Christmas lunch to change up our traditions, it was the best decision we made! The food, the service, the vibe, everything was amazing beautiful and fantastic. It is a must for everyone to experience it at least once to get into the Christmas spirit, the service and care they put into making sure the guests have a great time is amazing and they keep an eye on your glasses of water to make sure you are happy! Our server was an amazing, an Italian man who made the experience so much better he was so lovely and chatty and made sure we was happy and comfortable! Wish I knew how to spell his name so here’s a picture of him instead! 10/10 would recommend. It is abit on the pricy side however the price speaks to how amazing it is! The detail I just can’t explain!

Fabulous as ever. Oysters, tartare, English Sparkling and the Laurent were all beautiful. Oh and the complimentary house cocktail = nicely done.

Excellent setting and the service is lovely. The roast dinner was nice, the meat particularly was great but the vegetable/trimmings selection could have been better. It was a bit plain.

Very beautiful building, service was good and helpful. Food was ok not very special. Toilets near by And clean.

Wonderful place extraordinary architecture and environment. Very friendly staff. The food was very good, close to 5 star just my steak was a little tough, but otherwise nothing to complain about.

This is such a great place to quietly enjoy a drink, breakfast or anything else. The staff was extremely nice, especially Olga who is so welcoming. We never felt pressured to leave, yet we were always asked if we needed anything else. Even when the kitchen closed, one of the managers organised some bread for my friend. Will definitely come back!

Had an amazing dining experience at The renaissance, Booking office 1869. The Cashew Hummus and Beetroot tartare were bursting with flavor, and the buttermilk fried chicken was perfectly cooked and indulgent. No doubt about Cacio e pepe tortellini was the star. Special thanks to Mr. Sangram shinde for making our dinner more enjoyable and memorable. Our waiter Rossario was so friendly and offered us special delicious Birthday dessert that ended the meal on a high note. And of course Ms.Lena for taking out time from her busy day and guided us towards the famous grand stairs. Best wishes to all the team. Will definitely return!

The best presented coffee we’ve ever had. Thank you Daniel.

Our first visit & thoroughly impressed from the minute we arrived & were greeted front of house. The setting is excellent, a warm relaxing atmosphere in the old station with its high vaulted ceilings. Service was excellent & as I am The Winefan I was impressed with the wine list and the option to enjoy good wines by the glass or carafe. We chose 1/2 dozen oysters, followed by roast beef & creme brulee, all accompanied with wine, of course. Highly recommend and will certainly go back for the food, service and wine

We had an excellent Sunday lunch, the building is impressive and the atmosphere sophisticated. The service was brilliant from the minute your were greeted. Very good wine selection which was a bonus for me. First rate Sunday lunch, Oysters followed by Beef and Creme Brulee dessert with good wines. Staff were friendly and wanted to serve - we will certainly be back

We booked a Sunday roast and we weren't disappointed. I had the chicken and my husband the beef. Everything was very tasty and yummy. The atmosphere and decoration is very impressive and Instagram worthy. Very beautiful and fancy. Though, I thought the price of the Sunday roast was quite expensive for what it was. It is more for big occasion.

Our server Fi was very nice and caring and made the whole experience enjoyable! Thank you Fi 😃

If I could have given the food and the service an extra star I would have done so in a heartbeat. Absolutely 1st class treatment from the Italian waiter. Grazie Mille! The food was delicious. Will definitely be coming back. Thanks again.

Italian waiter was amazing. Perfect service and great food.

Reservation is mainly for dining, standard seating table reservation for 8 people drink requires minimum £1200 spending. High-top table reserved for drinks requires £100 per person minimum spending. While the manager was polite!

A lovely bar located in the Renaissance hotel in the historic St Pancras station in London. Absolutely stunning decor and a unique experience having food and drinks in a renovated train station. Definitely spend some time post your meal exploring the hotel as well as there is a magnificent staircase to explore as well.

Great restaurant inside the Renaissance Hotel with cool vibe and intimate atmosphere. It does get crowded, so come early.

I came for a roast dinner, it was in Timeout as a fantastic roast. Unfortunately it wasn’t turned up like warm, no flavour and general lack lustre. The atmosphere is fantastic, I didn’t eat any of the other food so I am unsure of the quality but the roast was poor. Maybe a great place for a cocktail to enjoy the environment.

The Booking Office at St Pancras station offers a captivating blend of historic charm and modern elegance—ideal for travelers and locals alike. The atmosphere is truly unique, housed in a restored Victorian railway hotel with high ceilings and grand arches, making it feel like you've stepped back in time. One of the highlights is the personal touch from the staff, particularly Ignacio, the welcoming mixologist. He's not only skilled in his craft but genuinely interested in feedback, often using it to perfect his team's monthly cocktail creations. The team here is attentive, friendly, and genuinely invested in making your experience memorable. Whether you're unwinding before a journey or simply looking for a refined spot in London.

Very disappointed with the quality of the Sunday roast. Whilst the sirloin was delicious & thinly sliced, the accompaniments were luke warm, the potatoes were so hard on the outside that it was difficult to penetrate them with a knife & the yorkshires were over cooked. There’s no doubt this is a lovely place to enjoy a drink and the acoustics are great for talking but I would not recommend the food.

I've had some great breakfasts here, and fabulous cocktails but today I went for a birthday Sunday roast and it could have been better. food was late and arrived cold, roast potatoes were rock solid after too long under a heater. Sent back. Many apologies followed, to be fair there was a recognition that things had gone wrong and seemingly a willingness to put it right. Food arrived again after 20 mins or so. Cold again but who wants to ruin a birthday with a public food at the table? I had a quiet word with the head waiter who again was most apologetic but we were an hour and a half after ordering by now. He offered free desserts ( not wanted we need to go by now) and knocked off the cost of 3 glasses of wine. Small consolation when you've spent £250 on a Sunday roast for 4. There's obviously a willingness to get things right here and the waiting staff were attentive and pleasant. The beef was good but cold when it arrived, also a major problem when dinners arrive stone cold twice, paid £35 per person for the food. It was cold, late and we got nowhere near our money's worth. Very poor. I'll not be back for the food

The place is gorgeous, the atmosphere is stunning. The food is ok, but nothing to shout about from the rooftops. The service is mixed. We probably would have had a better time had the receptionist not assumed we could not afford lunch there and pushed the menus in our face just to make sure this place is ok for you

Vibe of an american-style venue with very nice drinks and very good food. Precise service, as expected in such a refined restautant. One negative comment: did not really enjoy the view of the trains and of the inside of the station.

It is one of the house bar & restaurant formerly built in the 19th century St Pancras Renaissance Hotel. It opens at 7am in the morning, which is very suitable for travelers heading to the station in the morning, and then stays open until late at night. It can be regarded as one of the hotel's all-day dining places. As part of St Pancras Chambers, which was famous for its gorgeous architectural style in the 19th century, the large structural style of the Booking Office 1869 inherited from the ticket hall of the predecessor St Pancras Station is naturally gorgeous. The most eye-catching is the extremely high space and the same The very high and large windows to the outside, the window frame design has the classic classical gorgeous style of St Pancras Chambers, but I think what’s even better about Booking Office 1869 is that its interior design further enhances the environment, including the use of various colorful Large chandeliers, plantings, especially tall palm trees, etc. In addition, adding the original ticket window into a bar is another admirable ingenuity. The blue-green bamboo strips are posted under the bar. Very stylish too. Overall, the environmental style of Booking Office 1869, which was praised by various media when it first opened in 2021, deserves full marks. With such an environment, Booking Office 1869 is one of the most beautiful station restaurants if not the most beautiful. The full English breakfast I tried this time because of my schedule was of a certain standard from the presentation to the meal itself. Although it was not as stunning as the environment, it was not far behind. All the meal items were not overcooked. The taste and aroma are also good. Even in Greater London, it would be a decent English breakfast choice. Recommended as a restaurant worth trying in St Pancras/King's Cross, the environment is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Muy buen ambiente y buena sensación. Sin embargo, la comida no coincidía con el nivel de precios. El ojo costal era de buena calidad pero cero costuras. Definitivamente no valía la pena el alto nivel de precios.

Been here a few times with work and also with family Best cocktails in the area and we were lucky to be there on their anniversary where they made us some punch on the house

The vibes were immaculate. Can’t wait to return!

Lovely setting. Good food. Unfortunately, our breakfast main course arrived before we had finished our, generous, fruit salads. I had the impression that coffee involved free refills. This may apply to regular Americano, but I had decaf & my wife had both. Our coffee bill was steep.

I used to be a big fan of the Gilbert Scott bar, and I was hoping the Booking Office would carry on the tradition. I have tried to go three times and each time the concierge has ignored me or wandered off. Now I get a sort of Groundhog Day feeling whenever I consider stopping by. Strangely Searcy's, just down the road, presumably under the same management, doesn't have these issues.

Exceptional atmosphere along with the staff and food ! Thank you very much for a perfect evening. The steak diana was amazing!

Great place, strong cocktails- quite pricey though

The food here is great and so is the coffe maker Daniel who did some wonderful designs on the coffe, overall a really good experience at the booking office.

Visité la oficina de reservas de nuevo después de 10 años y no me decepcionó. El lugar es impresionante. Sangram fue excelente recomendando algunos bocadillos y guiándonos con la lista de cócteles. Una joya en King’s Cross con una gestión y personal muy profesional. Una visita obligada en Londres.

We were received by a loveliest lady at the front, and the waiters were equally great. The food was absolutely amazing. I had one of their recommended cocktail and will definitely go back for it.

The wait for our drinks order to be taken was over 30 minutes, and it took 45 minutes for our first drinks to arrive after arriving. The hosts are polite, but the system seems to be a little broken. Of course, the food and decor is beautiful and I visit here when you have time would be recommended.

Great food and service again…. Will be back again soon :)

Celebrated our son's 18th birthday there. It was lovely. Great service, nice atmosphere :) thank you so very much :)

Tuvimos una gran velada en Booking Office 1869 , gran ambiente y servicio, especialmente de Nela que recomendó grandes cócteles. Sin duda volveremos 😊

Service was poor and very slow… Waiter was barely attentive and our roast took almost 2 hours to come. Roast was also average. The only good thing about this place is the Ambiance. Would not come back and not worth the trip

Beautiful ambience, incredibly kind and welcoming staff PLUS great food. Too few placed in London hit all the high notes at once. Thanks to the team at the Booking Office for a great evening the other night, reuniting with friends from outside London! Made our city feel like the best :-)

I want to preface this with saying me and my husband worked in the service industry for 10 years, we are very chill go with the flow customers. I have never made a review before but I felt like this needed to be at least expressed in some way. The decor and look of the restaurant is amazing and the food was very good however the service was not what we expected for how much we spent. When we got there out we were greeted by an extremely friendly person at the host stand who made note that we made the reservation and stated it was our honeymoon, he was excited for us and we were in general excited about it being our honeymoon. We were seated and didn’t receive any service for around 20 minutes, which we laughed off but were a little confused. Once a waiter came over she was amazing but we discovered by observation that where we were seated was not her section. Our actual waiter, Lazario, then switched back to our section and our waiter. He was aloof and seemed to blame the table confusion on us. He never came to ask how our food was and never filled our waters without being prompted to by another employee or by one of us. The tables around us were checked in on by those who looked like shift leads or managers but no one came to check on us or ask how we were doing. The cherry on top was as we were leaving. We were waiting behind a large group of seven women who were being helped at the host stand by a man who appeared to be a manager. He was very happy and jovial with the group helping them get their table but when it came to helping us his demeanor changed. We told him we just needed to pick up our luggage, and that another employee had put in their luggage closet. We were handing him the bag check ticket and he, in a very annoyed tone, went “what is this”. He did retrieve our bags but we again were not asked how our experience was, and were met with short and harsh service. We went in excited and happy to be ending our honeymoon at Booking Office 1869 but the service fell short for us getting drinks, a starter, appetizer, two entrees and two desserts.

Very nice looking. Service started well, but disappeared mid-through. Food was solid, but not memorable.

Poor experience on Friday night here for dinner and drinks, some Food served cold, not enough waiters and a confusing menu. Really disappointed given the history of the place and prices

Awesome cocktail (5/5) Steak was better than good (4/5)

Beautiful venue, love the table sharing dishes, perfect for a business lunch albeit a little pricey.

A unique setting and special place for important occasions. Good menu, healthy choices, well presented and tasty! Great service.

Mark, what a gentleman! Went to Booking Office with my wife for our anniversary, were greeted by two lovely ladies, after we were taken care by Mark. He made us feel like royalty. The food, atmosphere is 10/10. We were even given a little anniversary surprise at the end. And Mark kudos for the French wine names pronunciation.

I came in here on a Tuesday night to get a drink and do a little work, whilst waiting for a train. I was unceremoniously told that laptops were not allowed. I decided to leave, as the only other option was to move to the lobby area in the hotel, a completely different space away from the bar. In all honesty, I would probably avoid this bar for the foreseeable, even though I am a regular visitor to St. Ps - the staff weren't exactly "friendly" this time and if I'm not allowed to sit in the corner, answer a few emails, whilst nursing a pint, well, there are other places in St. Ps just as nice that can offer me that option.

Absolutely terrible and over priced Sunday roast. Cold vegetables, under cooked parsnips, no crunch to the roast potatoes and £35 for the displeasure. I was so so disappointed. I ate the beef (what there was of it!) and the Yorkshire pudding. Also note that the beers are not full pints.

Fantastic place! The host Olga was very welcoming, beautiful ambience and great service . Especially the waiter Marc was very friendly. Got recomended the Orange negroni and o. singleman , very delicious. Had a great time!

Lovely venue and great wine options, would definelty revisit!

Servicio impecable y hospitalidad de Anthony “el francés” simplemente excelente de principio a fin. Una sonrisa toda la noche a pesar de estar tan ocupado, tan conocedor de su menú, solo el mejor servicio personal. 5 estrellas ¡Voy a traer a mis niñas de vuelta por una tarde! Maravilloso

Impeccable service and hospitality from Anthony “the French man” just superb from start to finish. A smile all evening despite being so busy , so knowledgeable about his menu, just the best personal service. 5 stars I’m bringing my girls back for an afternoon! Wonderful

Perfect place for a fancy but cozy and delicious business lunch!

Everything is excellent and the manager was a pleasure to meet. Can't wait to return!!!!

Very polite staff but not enough of them. I think our waitress had 12 tables. Confusing to find if arriving by Tube, recommend going completely outside, then up into the exterior plaza.

Este hermoso restaurante era un lugar cálido e inusual para celebrar una ocasión especial. Tuvimos el almuerzo establecido que era una buena relación calidad-precio. Muy recomendable!

A very Instagram-able venue. The team have maintained the classical architecture with a clean and modern twist. Not a cheap venue but great for a cocktail and catch up

We called in here before catching a train back to the East Midlands. As we hadn't made a booking we were seated at a shared table. The bar/restaurant is very dimly lit. Some might call it atmospheric. A round of 4 alcoholic drinks was approx £60 so it's not cheap. If you have an hour to spare before catching a train it's a nice place to kill an hour plus the toilets are lovely.

This place is truly magical. I love how they’ve transformed the old train booking office into a stunning bar and restaurant. After a long day of shopping, I decided to unwind here, and from the moment I walked in, I was transported into a world of old-school glamour. The hostess was attentive, the waiters were incredibly knowledgeable, and the cocktails—absolutely out of this world. I had the pleasure of meeting the manager, Artan, who made sure every guest was receiving 5-star service. His attention to detail, charisma, and warm personality made me feel like an old friend. Artan recommended a few snacks to accompany my drink, and they were so good that I ended up staying for dinner. I truly didn’t want to leave! Highly recommended! I can’t wait to come back.

I have been here with the family for dinner. The lovely lady at the entrance Gabriela accommodated us even though we didn’t had a booking and were served by a nice waiter called Chai for whom any request was not too much trouble. The restaurant looks fantastic and the food was great but it was the staff that made me want to come back again soon.

This bar/restaurant located next to King's Cross station. You can actually see the train platform from the window seat. I had enjoyed a perfect cocktail with historical details and spacious environment. What a great end for a night in London!

My partner and I had a lovely time in celebrating her birthday at Booking Office 1869. Which was most special for the both us, as it was also the very first place where we had our first date. I'd like to thank the staff and the chef for the high standards of their service, and we look back to returning again in the future with friends and family.

Excellent venue well situated. We enjoyed the 3 course lunch menu which included a glass of fizzy. The smoked chocolate dessert was outstanding. The staff we attentive, very professional and could not be faulted. All in all an absolute pleasure.

Had the best breakfast in the most beautiful dining room in the city! The Service was impeccable, also the staff were very welcoming, especially Julio and Joy who were very friendly and elevated the whole experience. I will definitely recommend!

Food was great, I am not a fan of steaks but they cooked it the way we wanted and to perfection, I think. Rosario, was great and very charming and gave stellar service.

The Booking Office 1869 in London is a visually stunning restaurant with an interior that captures the elegance of Victorian design. However, my recent experience there was far from satisfactory. Despite the promising ambiance, I found myself waiting an excessively long time to be served. Unfortunately, the service was so slow that I eventually decided to leave without having eaten anything. While the decor is undoubtedly impressive, the poor service overshadowed what could have been a delightful dining experience. Improvements in service efficiency are essential to match the grandeur of the setting. I will give this place another chance however when I’m in the local area again.

Vibey place. Doesn’t feel like London. The interior is gorgeous and the food was good

The menu offer some dishes with some interesting ingredients mix, which kinda blends together but leaves a weird but satisfying taste. I think the menu was a bit boring so I was pleasantly surprised that the vegetarian burger I ordered was tasty and delicious, very filling but not to heavy. I HIGHLY commend the Kiwi mousse with citrus and rosemary! Like I said,interesting mixed of flavour that's leaves a weird and satisfying taste. Alex our host/waiter was excellent and knowledgeable, and despite being busy offered a great service. Personally perhaps it was where we were seated but personally it was to dim for me. It's been on my list for a long time as the resturant is part of a iconic hotel that's been featured several times across the different media platform, and pop culture. Check the hotel out.

This most gorgeous period Restaurant, nestled inside the incredible St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel was truly a treat to imbibe and dine in. Our T-Bone for Two was cooked perfectly and our wines were just as good. The highlight of our visit was the amazing ambiance, and the food, but the beautiful service we received from Fi was what made our evening so special.

Kings cross little hidden treasure. A touch of class. Good quality food and the scenery is amazing. It's a 10/10 for me. To the chef your work speaks for itself A1. It's my fourth visit and definitely not my last.

The 3 starters were delightful - hummus, taramasalata, beetroot. My chicken was ok as were the broccoli & potatoes

Me and my partner came for a meal to celebrate our anniversary. We had an amazing time, the waiter was fantastic and even organised a little anniversary treat for us. He catered to all our needs, I could not recommend this place enough. The restaurant is beautiful, we had such an amazing time

Celebrating my son’s gcse results and food took 1.5hours to turn up. Very expensive and very slow- overall ruined the experience.

A very stylish British lunch restaurant, located in a station area. The food is of a high standard. Coupled with its decoration and atmosphere, it makes you feel happy and relaxed. I call it Zuo's medium dry-aged steak, which I think is the best steak in Europe. I also call Zuo's cup London light, which has good MSG. There are not many people and the price is a bit expensive, but they are all worth recommending.

Great food, ambience and service. We celebrated my aunt’s 98th birthday and this was truly the perfect place. Rosario took great care of us. Definitely recommend!

Had a large table of 12 for dinner. It was a client event and more people turned up than expected but they quickly found us a bigger place to sit. Our main waiter was incredibly attentive and made the experience.

Marvellous food, very, very tasty, if somewhat overpriced. There was no consistency to the servers, a different person almost everytime. Though all of them were very polite and conscientious.

Lovely venue and wonderful food — look forward to returning

Very dirty place, mouses on the side coaches.😫😫😫 which I found disgusting to be honest especially if you’re going to eat there. Immagine what rats do during night when place is empty. Awful experience, never going back again.

Really nice venue in a stunning St Pancras to stop off for a sophisticated drink. The Doorman Stephen was especially welcoming with a wonderful warm demeanour and smile

Exceptional cuisine, I didn't expect to be so won over: everything was delicious, exquisite. A delight. Best restaurant I've had to go to in a long time. The butler is charming. The only disappointment: the music, much too loud. But it is a pollution of our time - music, everywhere, all the time and too loud. Despite everything, it is and will be OUR restaurant in London! Well done !

Ohhh my love for this place is unending. Alkida is the most amazing server. This is only place I will start my day & it’s to see her. She’s attentive & her detail to customer service is impeccable. I’ve dined internationally my whole life & never have I felt so cared for than my mornings here at Booking Office. The food is wonderful but it’s the service from the staff that makes this place.

Impressive ambience, stunning architecture and very special surroundings for celebrating special occasions. Food is sub-par, nothing to go back for. Service was very slow. Family had the Sunday roast (no one was impressed, they all had better elsewhere). My beetroot dish was interesting, gem lettuce salad under-dressed.

Nice atmosphere and decor, perfect for a date.

No doubt a very beautiful restaurant by the St Pancras station. Friendly service. Fine dining experience, above average food and the menu has several vegan and vegetarian options. Kid's menu available as well! A great place for special occasions.

A beautiful restaurant. We enjoyed our experience and the service and food were excellent. For us, it is more a special occasion venue as it’s not in our budget for day to day dining. We’d definitely return.

The ambiance of this place is perfect.. Posh and with true, background music, not overpowering --but def upbeat. Cross from late 20s-40s. Whether or not you are passing thru the train station (we did early dinner), you should visit either for drinks or food--which was quite good. Carrot salad, green salad, steak, sea bass. My guest has been there for the Sunday Roast, which was not their favorite, fyi

Food wasn't bad but not differentiated enough from say Fallow or J SHeeky to command the prices they were charging (I get it - location). The cocktails were really good (Industry and Ol Signalman) but it looks forever to get cocktails out unless you were sitting at the bar. We went one night for dinner and drinks and another night for just drinks. The second night, it was impossible to get our waiter to pay attention to us so I had to go up to the hostess to get help. Olga is outstanding, she wants her guests to have a great experience and will do her best to make sure that happens... even if the other staff can't manage it.

The Booking Office is a fantastic location, part of the historically significant Grade I listed St. Pancras International Station. Their web site says ‘Old World European Charm meets the dry wit of London’. This captures the essence of the location. We went for dinner on a July Saturday evening. For main I chose the Chalk stream trout with Caper & raisin puree, cauliflower & radish, opting for the Koffman’s truffle & Parmesan fries with Black truffle, oregano & garlic to accompany. The trout was perfectly cooked, the fries with just the right amount of truffle to taste. For dessert my selection being the Crème Brûlée with a perfect topping of a layer of hardened caramelized sugar. Our waitress was always most attentive. Water offered on arrival whilst we decided what to eat. The food arrived in a timely manner. The atmosphere of the location has a vibrancy of people enjoying themselves in a most relaxed location. The chairs most comfortable. Forbes magazine described the Booking Office 1869 as ‘Majestic’ and it is.

One of the best cocktail bars in London. Sit at the bar for the full experience.

We were meeting at St. Pancras to go on and wanted to have a nice lunch first. We booked in advance and were welcomed at the entrance by a lovely host. We had a lovely table and all the staff were very friendly. The set lunch menu was delicious, starters were a particular highlight as we shared all three. The service could have been a little speedier but I’m being picky. All the food was good, we chose to have a glass of English sparkling wine with our meal also. Overall a great experience.

Cocktails - a lovely afternoon spent sipping cocktails with our girls
