    This is the original Hard Rock Cafe in London and we’ve been to a lot of different ones all over the world, but the one beats them all in authenticity and fantastic energy from staff, and the ambience of the place is second to none. To top it off having live music was an added bonus. Made our experience better than ever. Service from start to finish is fantastic and the good just how it should be, tasty and well presented and definitely great value for money. Would definitely be returning when we return to London. Recoup everyone.

    I went for a meal on a Sunday as part of an offer on open table for 2-4-1 for set menu's. The food was very good - authentic flavours and dishes, good portion sizes and a nice selection on the menu. The service was very good and my friend and i were undecided re the wine and were allowed to try 2 before selecting our bottle. Only slight minus is we ordered a side of vegetables - we got a very small portion of steamed spinach at £12! not quite what I expected. It was a Sunday lunchtime and only a few tables there so a nice quite atmosphere. This is a hidden gem I think!
