    Nach langer Zeit mal wieder in London und TOLL, dass wir hier auch unseren OpenTable-Account nutzen können. Diesen Restaurant war genau das, was wir über OpenTable finden wollten. Also der beste Einstieg um einen Kurzurlaub genießen zu können. Es gab nichg sehr viel Auswahl. Aber die Gericht wurden frisch zubereiten und waren sehr lecker. Die Preise waren London-entsprechend gut. Für Kurzurlauber oder Hungriege, die gutes Essen erwarten ist es eine prima Empfelung.

    Food is at best average. Pizza express is next door, would get better food there. Waitress is lovely, but managerial staff poor.

    I spotted Scoff & Banter from a taxi back to my hotel at Glocester Road, checked it out on Open Table, thought it looked smart and the name implied fun What wasn't clear is that S&B is a hotel restaurant (Radisson).not a stand alone venue. On arrival, it was clearly a bit less 'special' than we expected, and a bit characterless. No piano bar, and not much atmosphere. Service was excellent though- courteous and efficient, pleasant staff. Food was OK for a hotel restaurant, but only OK. Limited selection, which is good. A short wine list, which is also good and a fair range to suit the menu and most tastes. If I was staying at this hotel, I'd eat in a fair bit but if I wanted a good, authentic restaurant- I'd probably head out

    We gathered that the food during the year is excellent however the Christmas Day gourmet lunch was poor and very overpriced. That said, we were lucky to get anywhere on Christmas Day and the staff were very nice and helpful.
