   We have, over the last 20 years, eaten at The Garrison at least twice a year and it has been one of our favorite restaurants when we visit London. We were again looking forward to eating there last Monday (13th January 2025) but unfortunately we were let down both by the service and the food. We ordered 2 starters each (something which we have done numerous times) and asked for a recommendation for a white wine to go with the Dressed Crab to be told by the waiter that he didn't know as they have just changed the wine list, normally we would expect that the waiter would be updated on what wines paired with what dishes but this was not the case. We then ordered Focaccia which turned out to be stale and hard, the excuse being that it had been baked the same day (no apologies for having to replace it). The replacement Focaccia needed salt and when we got the salt mill, there was no salt in it. The Dressed Crab was small but good and the next course which we then ordered was the Tartare. Unfortunately my wife found a long hair in her portion and on complaining about this we were told that it could not have come from the kitchen as they all have short hair - again no apologies for the fact that the hair was found but was told by the waiter that maybe my wife should have purple hair so it would be easier to see! The last course was the Corish Yarg which both of us had ordered. It was served in a haphazard way, 4 uneven slices of cheese a dollop of relish and 4 small biscuits. We had ordered two glasses of port but initially received only one. In conclusion, we were very disappointed with the meal and especially with the service received from the waiter who was both arrogant and rude and although we would like to think that this was a one off occurrence, it did put us off going again and if we did we would make sure that we did not have the same waiter

   We are regulars at The Garrison. The best roast dinner in London by far. The roast we had this Sunday was off the scale delicious. They serve the best mains, deserts, wine and expresso martinis!! The staff are attentive and all super friendly. The restaurant is cosy with a lovely atmosphere. The only place I have the vegetarian option as their Wellington is superb. Perfect Sunday there. 10/10 Highly recommended.

   Great Sunday roast! I had the beef which was cooked amazingly so many different vegetables and the roast potatoes were fantastic! Good service too!

    Fantastic experience at The Garrison. We had to change our plans a couple of times and they were very accommodating. Food was delicious, clearly quality produce and everything tasted fresh. The service was friendly and attentive. Lastly, excellent value for money. Overall, fine dining quality dishes in a relaxed atmosphere with lovely people that didn’t break the bank. A pleasure to dine here.
