Mews Brasserie

Great time here. We were easily accommodated at their outdoor seating area around 8pm during the weekday.
To start, we shared the chicken liver mousse and Mew’s ricotta app. Neither of which I would actually order again but glad I tried. Toast on the chicken liver was great, use that to smear on the ricotta!
I definitely recommend the superfoods salad and the lamb burger. The pea guacamole, while it sounds odd was a good compliment to it.
The place itself is just so charming and hidden as the reviews before mentioned. Seems to be a great after work spot for the locals and it does bring in a good mix of people.

I visited today for lunch with my son — who works in the Ciry and frequents Mews regularly with his friends colleagues. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here! We started with a bottle of white wine — lovely. We chose a side as a starter — Macaroni Cheese which was both exquisite and filling. We followed with a Roast for my son and fish and chips for myself. We would recommend Mews to any one. The service was very good and food excellent. We will visit again and tell our friends!

I worked in Mayfair for 6 years with the intention of going for drinks or dinner at the Mews but always failed. My husband who works in the city managed to eat here before me with a client. Knowing it was on my list he booked here for an early birthday dinner, and found a great deal on Open Table — 2 courses and a glass of wine for £20!
Other Unilocalers have warned about this, ladies if you are wearing heels there are cobbles and certain bits are steep, hold on to someone. I haven’t walked around here for sometime and almost every bit of useable outside space is put to good use so you have to walk through quite a few tables to reach the Mews entrance. The restaurant is upstairs.
We were warmly greeted and taken to our table. We made quick work of the offer menu. I chose the crab salad to start, and for main the lamb with salsify, pomegranate and raviolo. James picked the haddock soup and Dover sole with spinach. My crab salad was fairly small compared with the soup, but it didn’t matter as my lamb main was a good size and packed with flavour. I’m not usually a wine drinker but the house white was pleasant.
As it was my birthday dinner it would have been rude to turn down dessert. I love custard so went for the rhubarb and custard and James had the cheese. We also had tea and coffee, which was served in the iconic white and blue enamel cups, which was quite novel for an upmarket establishment. My pud was delish, umptious and perfect balance of sweet, tart and creamy. The cheese selection was great too.
So why the 4 stars? The dining room is small so the tables are really crammed in, especially for couples. I was quite conscious of trying not to over hear conversations or glance in the wrong direction. Other than that I will definitely come back again.

bonne cuisine (la pièce de bœuf est juste extra), superbe terrasse abritée, chauffée et en plus ils fournissent des couvertures pour être parfaitement à l’aise même un 1er janvier.
serveuses accueillantes, mignonnes et très efficaces.
prix un peu élevés quand même. c’est ce qui enlève la 5ème étoile.
je recommande ce restaurant sans hésitation.

So once you find the small alley way that Mews is based at and depending on footwear and the weather, you might find the initial decent to the Mews a bit tricky, it is well worth the find.
The resturant is above the cocktail lounge. It’s a small resturant which was not to noisy and well serviced by the small staff team. The ambience was good not to loud so you have to shout your conversation but loud enough so that not everyone can hear what you are talking about.
We ordered from the set menu which gave some good options. The only problem (not a big one really) was that the mains did not come with any sides, when we asked the waiter about this he said it would be fine as the dishes come with a garnish. A garnish is not a replacement for some carbs!
Once the mains arrived we decided that we would need something to accompany the main. Trying to be healthy we asked for new potatoes however they did not have any so it was back to the old favourite… chips
The additional side made the mains very good and more filling. When I initially booked they said that tables would be on a two hour basis, I have to say though that unless they get much busier I do not think they enforce this. I am quite sure we could have stayed, eating and drinking of course, much longer than two hours.
Now the only negative thing I have to say was a peculiar one. Whilst chatting we noticed that a man and his dog had appeared at the restaurant entrance. Needless to say I do not know if this is a regular occurrence but the staff seemed very familiar with both the man and his dog! The bit which did not sit well with me is the dog seemed to be allowed to wander in and be stroked by the staff, staff serving the food I might add!!! Now if this is the norm for the Mews so be it.
I did enjoy my time there and might go back but not when the dog present is I hope.

Arrived at 5 to twelve on a sunday, ready for lunch, unfortunately they open the upstairs dining room at twelve so we were sent to the bar until then.
While some of our party refreshed themselves the rest ordered cocktails. After a while we were escorted to the dining room and our table. The cocktail called «Winter pim’s» was very tasty, and perfect on a cold day.
The food was also very god and the banoffy pie was great, but split it between 3 or you might burst.
We had a great lunch at this «hidden gem» in the alley.

Another excellent suggestion by the concierge, Mews is located off an alley next to a few other restaurants. We had no reservation but only waited a bit in the bar for our table. Great mixologists to watch while you wait for a table. Anyway, the food was great. Had a delish short rib off the bone that just fell apart as you started eating it. Very tender and flavorful. Great spot.

A date brought me to this sexy cocktail bar for pre-​dinner drinks the other week. Gorgeous weather meant we swapped the black leather banquettes inside for an outdoor table for two. It’s tucked away down an alleyway so you don’t get much of a view other than the bar opposite, but it still works great for beautiful-​people-​watching and pretending you’re somewhere more exotic.
I couldn’t fault the service here and just a look is enough to get their attention. Nice touch when it gets a little colder is that they turn on the outdoor heaters and even offer you a blanket to keep you snuggly warm!
I’m also going to put it out there that I think this is the home of the best lychee martini in London. Any dissenters are welcome to take me out to prove me wrong ;)
Unbeknownst to my proud date, I’d actually been here a few times already: once for work drinks when I spotted Gareth Gates (I’ll let you decide whether that’s a plus or a minus for you!), twice for friends’ birthday drinks in the club downstairs, and finally when I organised a stop here on my best friend’s hen do. On that occasion, the manager Jonny and his staff were stars to work with in getting all the arrangements sorted, and between their hosting skills and an awesome DJ we had a night of five-​star fun (cementing our position as ‘best bridesmaids everrrr!!’).
Solid date choice and a classy clubbing option — I’ll be back for more martini loving :)

Mews is what a cat does. It should not be what a small street is named. That’s crazy, London. Get your life together.
I came here with a group of five other guys. I’m a guy too. That makes six guys. Just doing that math for you in case you were as bright as the guy who came up with the word Mews for a road.
This place is pretty cool. I’d say you should check it out but I don’t know you so I don’t know if that is good or terrible advice. I will assume it is good advice so I can sleep well tonight… and for many nights to come.
The bathrooms are a little tricky. You have to share a small sink area with the opposite gender. I don’t mind that, but sometimes it is tricky. I guess it depends how much you need to wash your hands. There are also book pages used as wallpaper. I got lost reading for a while. It was captivating. Hence the need for excessive handwashing.
I can’t remember what I ate. But I do remember that I only drank water that night and that I still felt like I was getting a little drunk. Sometimes that happens to me when I drink too much water. Especially when I’m in London. Not sure what that’s about. I think I will call my physician tomorrow.
We got scolded for speaking too loudly outside as we left the restaurant. It wasn’t that late and we weren’t that loud. I think somebody was just cranky.

This place was a little too *posh* if you know what I mean. Just because something has the word mayfair on it doesn’t mean that it has an excuse to jack up its prices and ignore its customers.

Great British food. Cozy sophisticated bar lounge. Great for a first date or outing with close friends. In door and out door seating. Club downstairs for dancing the night away if you feel like continuing your evening. A little hidden gem. Good for private functions and they offer wine tastings and other event options.

Hey this was a fun little place we discovered while walking an we got hungry. Tucked away in some tiny ally this restaurant/​lounge is perfect for a nice bite. At first we wanted to sit inside but change sour minds and sat outside, they had space heaters cause it was December but u have to be lucky to sit close enough to one. The service was excellent and so was the food. But it is quite costly heck it’s just off Bond Street :) so come prepared.

Great food. The veal was great. The lamb was very good. Overall the kids enjoyed it very much.

Awesome place. Extensive menu. All three of us had grilled chicken with exotic mushrooms plus chips. Delish. Service was just average. Adorable neighborhood. Loved the «help yourself» huge candy jars on the way out.

Fun location down a small alley. The Mews restaurant is upstairs inside. They also have an outside location in good weather. Call and clarify what you’re going to get.
Service is very efficient and pleasant. The food is good, not great. The menu is somewhat odd — pubby food with a few upscale accents. We each had grilled sandwiches then shared mac & cheese, rocket salad & wilted spinach. The sides were tasty. The sandwiches were bread-​y. Avoid them. But go to Mews. Very fun find.

Had a place outside:
— nice location with great atmosphere (outside; I cannot judge on the inside location)
— staff very kind
— starter: scallops & bacon (12.50) very exquisite
— main courses:
hot smoked salmon salad with asparagus and beetroot (9.50): very few asparagus and beetroot; salmon tasted very good; no salad dressing — not very tasteful
sea trout was tasting strangely and like chlorine — returned the food and ordered Mews gourmet cheeseburger, which was good (14.50)
— drinks: yummy Nevai Martini (12.00); glass of Gavi di Gavi (10.00)
Conclusion: great location/​atmosphere, food was not worth the price

The waitress was pretty nice to us and she put us in a private room facing the street, but most of the people on the street were smoking and all the smoke ended up in our private room. The drinks were good the ambiance excellent but the smoke intolerable.

Mews of Mayfair is located in a small small court. I insist on small as there is only Mews and one other bar (which i suspect share the same owner) in that smal small court.
The court is lovely, hiding, and beautiful at night. Perfect for drinks outside with your friends. There are even some torches that keep you worm when it gets a bit chilly.
I suggest you go on the website as it’s well designed, and all info are in there.
I can only give my opinion on 2 things:
— The food, which i must say, is really not fantastic at all. Really not. It’s kind of flat, not special flavors. I’ve tried the house burger, which was really poor. After all i’m fond of burgers, you can’t play me on that subject.
— The service was irregular, i can’t say the waitress were bad as they were helpfull and smiling all along. But the organization is terrible, I’ve seen 3 different waitress over my meal, no appointed one, and there were always going back and forth, which was not efficient at all.
So if you just want a place to chill with your friends in a nice setting, you can go there definetely.
But please, for the love of food, don’t go there to have dinner, as there are so many place in London where you can really enjoy your meal.
Prices: £15−30 for a main meal, £9−12 a cocktail

Mews of Mayfair is a lovely lounge/​restaurant.
A very relaxed atmosphere, amazing décor, and a great crowd.
The food is great, I’ve been there twice and enjoyed it thoroughly,
perfect place to chill at night time, over a drink, good musicalways on my list!

I was meeting an old friend who was in town and his friend took us along to this spot, hidden away in this alley I had had no idea about (don’t you love this about London? The many secrets to discover!). We went upstairs to the restaurant and were told there would be a wait so we trotted down to the cocktail bar (leather sofas and dim lighting, mmm) to wait. The three of us were a bit formal and awkward to start with (It was the first time I was meeting the friend of my friend) but things got less so after the cocktails came around. The cocktail offerings in this establishment are absolutely ace, might I say. I went for one of the whisky cocktails, New Highland, because you just don’t see enough of these, in my opinion — the drink is tasty but potent, not designed for wimps!
We were ushered into the restaurant before we were halfway done with our drinks and the waitstaff transferred all the drinks over to our corner table seamlessly, taking care to put away our coats and bags in the adjacent cloakroom. I enjoyed the banter with our Scottish waiter who highly approved of my choice of cocktail made with Glenmorangie Original.
I note that the menu has changed since my visit to the establishment in winter. I had some delish Pumpkin soup for starters, followed by a generous portion of King Prawns and vegetables with Sweet Chilli sauce for mains. I had initially planned to go for another dish but the waiter informed me that the preparation hadn’t turned out quite as well on the day as they would have hoped, and he steered me towards the prawns and I didn’t regret it. The grilled fish that my friend had ordered looked like a catch too, might I say (no puns intended, of course: P). We followed the mains with a shared dessert of very chocolatey mousse, which I find a tad too rich for my palate after the rather heavy dinner. Our coffee came with a generous serving of excellent petit fours for the table — if I’d known, I might have skipped dessert! We had to rush out of the dinner because of various reasons, but the waiters were prompt with bringing the bill and offering us our coats etc — I was pleased with the service considering the restaurant was well busy through all of this!
So why only 4 stars? Because at this price, you would expect a lot of what is on offer. And the food is obviously fresh and well made but it lacked memorability — I’m struggling to remember the taste of the not inexpensive food, and that justifies taking one star off. Also, my friend paid for this meal (terribly generous and unexpected!) which is why I might have a more favourable view of the restaurant than might otherwise be justified, so I must desist. But I do reiterate, the cocktail certainly kicked ass!

After a frankly microscopic yet expensive meal, we were further dismayed upon realizing that we’d completely missed the boat on London’s fashion night out. Despite these setbacks, we were bound and determined to locate the aftaparty… or failing that, the afta aftaparty… or failing that, a waffle house. That’s how two transplants, one from Hollywood and Fats from NY, found themselves in a strange alley straight out of Harry Potter, following some glitterati-​looking cool kids. We followed them right into a subterranean bar, which also seemed like the only thing open at 11pm at night.
The place was pretty swanky with ample low slung seating and an interesting crowd with sprinkles of tuxedo clad charity ball refugees and model-​looking girls amongst a pride of young, attractive bankers. We also found some unexpected sparkle in the form of an old friend from New York who’d recently moved to London for work.
Unfortunately, on that Wednesday night, last call was 12:30am, and we were tucked into a cab by 1am after lingering over the last pricey (albeit delicious) drink.
PARTING THOUGHTS: Is that real scotch in the display case by the door, or is that dyed water? Why is the champagne bottle on the bar caged?
