The Garden Cafe - Menu

Visit 15/07/2022. This place is always fantastic, excellent staff, great food. Book in advance and ask for a table in the garden (rather than inside).

Sorry but this is not for us. Starters are ok not cheap . The menu is limited. The presentations are not good. Main course are too expensive for what you’ve got. Definitely not going back there .

Described on Google as vegan/vegetarian but this is an out of date description with new owners. Having said that they made something for vegan son and the overall meal in a delightful garden setting was most enjoyable. Great wines too.

Stunning and leafy hidden gem in the centre of London. The cold cucumber soup was the most refreshing starter I have ever had. Staff were very friendly and professional and made our experience very relaxed and enjoyable. Cost around £120 including 3 courses for 2 with wine. Highly recommend

In case you 're seeking result in these present circumstances bistro for espresso and pastry reconsider. Sorry can 't have tart except if purchasing lunch . With seats accessible as well! I wouldn 't consider it a bistro. Propose they set the deserts aside from the front counter since not every person can arrange. I wouldn 't return!

We made a reservation for lunch and after 1.5h we were asked to leave because they needed the table. We explained that after booking, there was no time limit. They didn’t believe us until we showed them the confirmation email. They apologised BUT they still moved us to another place and didn’t offer anything for the inconvenience caused. Also, food is overpriced. Not worth it.

A very pretty café in a very pretty garden fabulous for nice sunny days and there’s an enclosed glasswalled area for when the weathers not so good. The food was incredibly amazing. I decided to be adventurous and I ordered the heart on toast, I’m an American I don’t think I’ve ever had heart before. It was amazing it was smothered in the kind of garlic butter that you put on escargot, on a piece of really nice whole wheat toast with a very crunchy crust. I was in garlic butter heaven. I followed it up with a Rhubarb eclair, and I drank it with a rhubarb cordial. I have died and gone to Food heaven

A calm oasis in a busy and touristy area. Delightful spaces indoors and outdoors surrounded by green plants in this gem of a restaurant near the Thames and St Thomas' Hospital. The hake was done just right, tender with crispy skin, sitting on a bed of succulent fennel and thinly sliced fried potatoes. The bread was absolutely fresh, with just enough stretch and a good crust. The Easter tart was a fruit cake peppered with tiny cubes of orange peel and wrapped in a layer of marzipan topped by a marzipan ball. The hot water for the tea came hot enough to make two perfect cups of tea. All in all, an excellent dining experience.

As a designer I first eat with my eyes so I have to say such a charming place and how careless they are in keeping the potential and beauty of the place intact. On the right hand side you have a neat trapezoidal shape box...so far so good.. at the center you have the bar..tall table and cake counter display and on the left you have the storage of the restaurant paper towels..plastic boxes..fridges in full display with all the functional ugliness they bring. I'm glad I just had a coffee as I would not eat here having such unpleasant view as focal point. Half of the customers have a lovely view..the other half the back of the storage room. What a wasted opportunity of having a jewl.
