Bustronome London Reviews Summary

Atmosphere and Setting

Pros:

• "What a great way to travel around the sites of London and at the same time enjoying being served a delicious lunch + cocktails!"
• "The panoramic views of London from the bus were breathtaking."
• "As the sun set and the city lights came on, the tourists at Piccadilly Circus waved to us."
• "The bus drove at a lovely slow pace so we got lots of time to see all the sights as we passed."
• "You actually feel privileged driving past all the pedestrians looking up at you in awe."
• "The views are great from the bus but paired with an awful playlist of club music, which does not fit the vibe which was promised."

Cons:

• "However, the pricing of the experience seemed steep given the quality of the food."
• "The bus stopped towards the end and we were dropped off at a random street due to road closures."
• "No talking through or even pointing out the different sites we passed by."

Food and Beverage

Pros:

• "The food was presented with attention to detail and delicious at the same time… catering for vegetarians, kids and other dietary requirements."
• "The food was cooked to perfection, well presented and delicious, we toured London while enjoying a 4 course meal and finished off with a great cup of coffee."
• "Highly recommend the lunch time option. Otherwise for a more romantic, chilled setting, dinner would be ideal."
• "The portions seem small but at the end of the journey, we felt fulfilled."
• "Compliments to the chef because the food tasted just as good as the beautiful presentation."

Cons:

• "The taste and quality of the dishes fell short. Some of the dishes lacked the depth of flavor and precision that one would expect from a fine dining establishment."
• "The fish dish was dry for me and the lemon dessert was too lemony for me but overall really good food and journey!!"
• "It was freezing on the bus and I asked 4 times for the aircon to be turned down which was but after 5 mins was put on full blast again!!!!"
• "Food was appalling - basic, bland, too salty, dry or overcooked elements in every dish."
• "The food wasn’t exceptional, but not disappointing either, considering we were on the bus."

Service

Pros:

• "Our servers Bruno and Chris looked after all of us so well. They all welcomed us with a smile and were welcoming and genuine."
• "Bruno's good service, delicious food and the beautiful night view of London gave me and a friend of mine a great experience and memories."
• "Our servers Chris & Yuvi were incredible. I was super impressed with their efficiency, professionalism and balance, managing multiple food plates and drinks on a moving bus!!"
• "Jackson (here in our picture) the host was terrific."
• "The staff onboard (Jay & UV) were very welcoming and informative."

Cons:

• "The idea of sitting on a bus for a fine dining meal while you traverse London and its sights is unique in concept but the execution is poor. Barely a welcome as we boarded the bus."
• "The staff were lovely but that was it."
• "No notification, no updates, no place to hide from wind and rain. When we were frozen to the bone and about to give up, the bus finally arrived."
• "A Birthday surprise treat, wow. A great experience, waiters friendly and attentive. Excellent food and service. And such an incredibly comfortable way tour London."
• "Food was super tasty, literally everything we had was delicious. The service was great, they're very polite, helpful and friendly."
