    Came here with a friend for lunch and a catch-up. Noise levels did get a bit loud as the place filled up but still ok to hear ourselves. Food, staff, decor and ambience all great. Will definitely return.

    Accueil merveilleux, service parfait, la meilleur sheperd Pie de Londres. Le seul bémol concerne les desserts : très bons mais en portion trop petite par rapport au prix. Sinon rien à redire ! Une superbe adresse.
    The Ivy Cafe MaryleboneResponded 2 days ago
    Thank you for your lovely review. We are delighted that you enjoyed the warm welcome, the perfect service and that our shepherd's pie reminded you of London. We appreciate your feedback about the dessert portions — we are glad the flavours hit the mark even if the size felt small for the price. We hope to welcome you back soon.

    A pretentious and outdated establishment with poor service and very ordinary food. Nothing about Ivy is relevant in today’s world. The decor is over-the-top and loud. The place is overstuffed yet delays and missed orders are common. The food arrives looking rushed and thrown on a plate. We waited 20 mins for a waiter to take our order, a further 25 to receive our order and even then they missed a part of the order that we were later charged for. Upon pointing this out, we got a casual “Oh ok!” Shrug of the shoulders. The staff need to be retrained from basic etiquette and courtesy to kitchen skills. Given the neighbourhood they’re in, they shouldn’t take their customers for granted!

Every guest matters to us, and we always strive to make each visit special. We are sorry if we did not fully meet your expectations, and we would love the opportunity to make things right.

    Very good. We arrived early and with a case. They could store the case. At the beginning, we were looked after by an attentive waiter. He ensured we had drinks and took our food orders. When the food arrived he dished it out. He even sent a plate back because it wasn't up to standard. The food was lovely. I had shepherds pie - very tasty. I followed that with an apple pie and ice cream with brandy on the top set alight - gorgeous. After this, there must have been a shift change and the service wasn't anywhere near as good. But overall a very good experience.

    Dear John, Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed the food, especially the shepherd's pie and our apple pie with flambéed brandy. We're glad our team could accommodate your luggage and make you feel welcome. However, we're sorry the service wasn't as consistent towards the end of your visit and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
