The Spectator
The best guide to London restaurants
The Evening Standard
...often witty, often acerbic
Synopsis
Famous for "telling it how it is", this handy guide, now in its 17th edition, remains the first choice for discerning Londoners.People-power underpins its authoritive reviews and ratings, which are based on the UK most comprehensive annual survey of the restaurant-going public (in which many thousands take part).The guide's unique marking system ensures that the best pubs, curry houses and caf????????A?s are given the same recognition as pricey temples of gastronomy.A user-friendly format is key. Reviews are liberally scattered with quotes from ????????real???????? people, and ratings (on a 5-point scale) grade the Food, Service and Ambience for each establishment. There are extensive maps showing individual locations, plus a vast array of indexes to help make the best choice for any occasion.
Customer Reviews
disappointing
I was disappointed by the light weight write-ups. Also, it looks to me like all the reader reviews on Amazon have been written by the publisher. Hmmmmm.
Eat out in London? This guide is essential
The Harden brothers have been writing their guide for 10 years or so now, and get over 5000 responses every year to their survey of London restaurant goers. The restaurant ratings are based on this survey, and the write ups of each restaurant are a combination of Hardens' own views and quotes from the survey participants. Generally the rankings are pretty reliable, and the various look up tables (from best brunch in Central London to best (only!) Cuban restaurant) make this a must have guide for those times where you want to try somewhere new or just want some good suggestions. Also includes reviews of London's top ten favourites and maps so you can pinpoint your destination. Thoroughly recommended.
Honest, guide to restaurants/bars/cafes - even coffee shops
Honest, concise review of restaurants in London. Clear-cut information covering the simple details that people want/need to know, without the usual ramblings of most restaurant guides. Can be relied upon for any event.
