Harden's survey result
Summary
“The scene is set for romance before you even step through the door” at this “very impressive and spectacular” yearling, with its location “next to Paul Day’s sculpture of a couple kissing at St. Pancras International”. Set inside the station’s former ticket office (nowadays part of a glossy five-star hotel), “the majesty of the architecture is set off by elegant palm trees and it’s a calm and wonderful oasis” (complete with a 22m bar). The only potential shortcoming is the all-day brasserie menu: even some fans concede it’s “pricey” and there is the odd report of “really disappointing” dishes here. Top Menu Tip – “it’s always been a stunning space and – now it’s a restaurant – it’s the perfect place to crash a hotel breakfast!”; “beautifully executed afternoon tea” too.
Summary
During the pandemic, this fine space was given a lavish makeover and relaunched in late 2021, complete with eight 8-metre tall palm trees, striking pendant lights (made up of 267 brass leaves each), and a 22-metre long bar. The all-day menu created by chef Patrick Powell is a succession of luxurious bites (there’s a raw bar, salads, fish finger sarnie, steak…), making this “an excellent place for a good-quality and fairly priced bar-type meal” as you make the most of the extensive cocktail menu. In summer months, the hotel also runs a substantial roof garden along the same theme.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
