The Hill reviews

Completely overrated. I don't know how anyone could commend the service. We had two rude and sulky blondes wait on us. It was thoroughly unpleasant. Additionally, the food is bland and mediocre at best. I made the mistake of being seduced by the charming decor, but did not enjoy any of it as we were seated by the loo. Poor. Very poor.

After booking about a month in advance and constantly asking whether we could book a table for a work do, about a day before we arrived and 2 hours after confirming we had a table, they phoned and told us that the oven wasn't working properly and they would be prioritising other people who'd paid money up front for the Xmas menu. We were left in the lurch and had to eat elsewhere.

I love it here. The staff, some of whom have been here ages, are always really friendly and accommodating and the food lately is consistently great. Check out their classy little cocktail list at the moment too - the French 75s are excellent. So much better than The Wash or Steeles nearby.

Great little boozer. If you want to avoid the overcrowded Primrose Hill pubs, head up to this beer garden in the summer. They do really good food - last time I had lamb shank but also had my eye on the monkfish! Never had any complaints about the service. However, it does get very busy on a Sunday (probably as it's the best roast in the area, although also the most expensive) so maybe book to avoid waiting around.

I eat here every Sunday with friends and have always had an amazing time and excellent service.

Had Sunday lunch here last week and was really disappointed. Roast dinner was OK but lamb was really fatty and parsnips overdone. Chocolate fondant with icecream at £7 was actually burnt chocolate sponge - no sign of the icecream until I asked if it was coming.
