The food here is outstanding, and I have been here a few times now for the tasting menu or even just to share a bottle of wine. The interior is beautiful and great for a date night, with lots of candles and wood. Had the seafood tasting menu last night, which was delicious and lots of courses. The service was excellent and didn't mind us staying for over 4 hours until close!
Really sad to hear that they will be closing for good. This is a very special restaurant and will always recommend it.
Absolutely loved Tavern, one of the best meals we’ve had in London for ages! Inventive and super delicious food and unusual cocktails (in the best way). Perfect for a little date night or dinner with pals - thanks guys we’ll be back

5 star on all fronts, Jan and Carys were great servers- helped to understand the menu and made great recommendations. The food was great, I had some delicious oysters (big ones), we shared a sirloin and had chips and salad with that. I think the side salad was slightly overpriced but apart from that everything else was good value for the quality. The sirloin was like butter, we had some desserts too but I would say the oysters and steak were star of the show.
We’ll come again for sure

lovely dinner 🍽️ with even lovelier company, the service was fabulous and efficient with little to no wait time between courses (amazing).
mayo🧴was used a lot in the starters, perhaps too much. the beef 🥩 was cooked well and you can taste the dry ageing. wish they gave more bread 🍞 , (i love soda bread), and i loved the desserts, especially a dessert bread. unfortunately can’t go again as the restaurant is closing but i had a great time
