Fed & Watered Reviews Summary

Hygiene and Cleanliness

Pros:

• "The exterior wall painting is interesting, and the presence of flower pots adds a pleasant touch to the ambiance."
• "The atmosphere at Fed & Watered is relaxed and welcoming."

Cons:

• "This practice seemed unsanitary, as the containers might have been shared across tables, potentially exposing them to previous customers' germs."
• "The salt and pepper shakers were noticeably greasy and bore the marks of previous customers' fingerprints."

Service Quality

Pros:

• "The staff are friendly and attentive, and they always go the extra mile to make sure you have a great experience."
• "The service was great and the venue is also good for eating outside."
• "Bethan was our waitress who was lovely."

Cons:

• "Unfortunately, the staff in this establishment seemed to rush us with their forced laughter, giving us the impression of 'eat quickly and leave!'"
• "After reading the reviews, we were excited to potentially find a new local restaurant for a Sunday roast. The service was not inattentive but certainly not warm."
• "I had the worst experience at Fed And Watered this past weekend. We waited for 45 minutes for breakfast only to get cold food, tiny burned tomato, burned bread, and an old bacon."

Food Quality and Taste

Pros:

• "The food itself had an acceptable quality and nice taste."
• "The oysters stole the show! They were the highlight of my meal, absolutely fantastic."
• "Never have I kicked myself more. Firstly, I was tempted in by the endless list of people who told me it was so good, the reviews really do speak for themselves."

Cons:

• "The main meals were just okay, nothing exceptional for the price. The flavours were, sadly...average."
• "Eating out is really a treat, and though we don’t mind paying £25 for a plate, getting a single slice of roast beef in a Sunday roast is, quite simply, wild."
• "Tried Fed and Watered a couple of times and been happy (ish). Popped in for supper on my way home with my other half last night and it was awful, fish not cooked through properly and cold inside, lamb that was so tiny, tough with a blob of fat not rendered."

Ambiance and Atmosphere

Pros:

• "It’s a small restaurant so has a really intimate atmosphere."
• "We attended during the London Restaurant Festival in June 2023. We had a fabulous time as there was a great atmosphere."
• "Chris and your team, thank you for the sensational service that backed this up, great food is nothing if not delivered by people who are both passionate and enthusiastic."

Cons:

• "On the downside, the seating was cramped, with chairs too close together, making it uncomfortable."
• "We had been visiting my Son & Daughter in law. They took us to the Fed & Watered and what a lovely place. The food was amazing. Great choice of cocktails. The owner and the staff are really friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely go back and would recommend this place as a great place to go."
• "The atmosphere was great, aided by staff who just had a great welcoming & attentive-but-not-intrusive approach."

Pricing and Value

Pros:

• "Almost certainly the best value for money fine dining in London. Simple dishes cooked to perfection."
• "Great restaurant. Does phenomenal (and deadly!) Cocktails which menu changes monthly to mix it up. The early dinner deal is a massive steal with the quality of food you're given. (2 courses £20, or 3 £25). Dog friendly!"

Cons:

• "The food itself had an acceptable quality and nice taste, but the pricing exceeded our expectations."
• "Considering the options available in the area, one can find much better food and service for the same price."
• "Cool place! Nice atmosphere, lovely staff. A little pricey, though it's hard to comment on that given inflation at the moment, I know small businesses are being squeezed. However £13 for a very disappointing mojito (tasted like just soda water) and £20 for 7 pieces of Gnocchi — I'm sorry it's too much to ask for."
