• "It’s such a shame as the venue is very beautiful but that’s sadly all there is to it."

Service

Pros:

• "Service was incredible and the staff catered for all our requests."
• "Shout out to Matt, he went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly."
• "Service was fabulous from the front door staff all the way to the bar."
• "Staff are very friendly, lovely and helpful."
• "Service was brilliant - cocktails were great."
• "I had an absolutely fantastic experience at 601 Queen’s Rd on my birthday, all thanks to the exceptional customer service provided by Nicole M!"
• "Our waitress Ann was amazing, very polite and looked after the whole table expertly."
• "Lovely staff and atmosphere. I had a great customer service delivered by Julie P., who was so helpful deciding about our order."
• "The staff are so helpful & friendly, especially Anna who was so professional, efficient & lovely."

Cons:

• "It was really challenging to wave them down to serve us and when one would eventually meander over it was clear they were either undertrained or just couldn’t be bothered to take the order."
• "The same issue happened with the pudding for my granddaughter - they had completely forgotten that we had ordered the Eton Mess for her and once again I had to walk round to the waitress to ask for it!"
• "The staff are nice but not particularly on it, they brought our mains having not cleared the starters and it was really slow getting our drinks."
• "The bill arrived a short while later at almost £70. We were still charged for everything despite eating only the starters and drinking our cocktails - the beers were barely touched. No apology was offered."
• "Service was a let down, staff didn't seem like they wanted to be there."
• "Had brunch on Sunday and there were loads of seats inside and outside. Service on the other hand was not great, really slow and having to wave at waiters for everything."

Food and Drinks

Pros:

• "We had some gorgeous drinks from the bar and then had some delicious food."
• "The food was amazing with a large selection of food and drinks!"
• "The Sunday Roast was delicious."
• "The food is great and staff are very friendly."
• "The food and cocktails were delicious, and all reasonably priced."
• "Food is incredible, I love their Banana pancakes and the avocado chilli lime sourdough."
• "Delicious range of brunch options at typical London prices. Beautiful setting especially in the sun with lovely atmosphere and decor."
• "We order drinks, including shots & coffee, starters, mains & desserts! Throughout our entire meal, we felt welcomed & looked after!"

Cons:

• "Food was passable considering the price paid."
• "The food is so average it hurts, the only person that fully enjoyed their meal got the sea bass but the steak / burgers / chicken were all pretty uninspiring and lacking flavour."
• "Food was ok, had breakfast/brunch but had to send back as the eggs weren't as requested."
• "The food took over an hour and arrived lukewarm. Maybe we were unlucky and it was just a bad day but I would not visit again."
• "I ordered a rice and when I had it I found out that it was so spicy that I could go on eating it just mixing it with the juice I've ordered previously."
• "The food is very good and the drinks are very good the cocktails are especially nice my only critique would be it does get quite loud in the evening when the DJ arrives but for most people it's a great place to gather in the centre of Wimbledon for a quiet chat and some food and drinks it has an outside balcony which is a wonderful place to view the centre of Wimbledon and it does have a romantic feel to it so it is a great place for couples to go but it can accommodate families and larger groups I would say the maximum number of people that would feel comfortable served there would be about 12 anything more and I would think they don't have the ability to seat you at a single table."
