I was quite disappointed. We arrived just after 7pm so as to get a table in the brasserie. We were immediately offered water but then struggled to get a waiter to take our order... they stagger things for the kitchen. So we finally ordered a starter hoping to tide us over, but this meant that we just waited longer anyway. So maybe the food is made fresh but if you wait 20 minutes to order and are then told the pie takes in excess of 30 minutes and one waits about an hour anyway, it all seems quite pointless. The 1.50 charge for bread seems rather cheeky, if one has to wait for so long, they could at least give you something a little to tide you over!!! The longest dinner I've had and not in a good way. Certainly won't be back.

Fascinating spin on British cuisine with the occasional French or Italian influence added. Upmarket, perhaps a little pretentious but the food is delicious so I won't quibble.

I took some colleagues to dinner on Weds night to Bumpkin and we had a fantastic night! The food was home cooked, wholesome and delicious and their was a great atmosphere. Would highly recommend it!

Bumpkin has very average food, and a limited and overpriced menu. The open kitchen means that the whole restaurant smells of cooking, as do your clothes when you leave. The staff are unhelpful and barely speak any English. Bumpkin is extremely disappointing.

I have been to Bumpkin twice in the last two weeks, for no other reason than I loved it!
First of all the Sunday lunch was an amazing roast and the atmosphere was great. And then for dinner last week. Bumpkin have truly tasty food and friendly staff.

I went to Bumpkin last Sunday and the service was painful to say the least. Our waitress could barely speak English and wasn't even sure if they served soda water. Salmon was on the specials board and three of my party ordered it for a main meal. However when it arrived it actually turned out to be a starter. We weren't advised this was the case initially so we had to order extra vegetables to compensate.


The table was warped and so all evening cutlery and plates kept sliding onto the floor. The waiter responded with a few bits of paper folded up placed under our plates. We also asked for bread and the waitress placed the breadbasket in front of one of the diners and not in the middle of the table which was quite insulting.


I wanted to support Bumpkin as a local restaurant but they are charging high prices for homecooked food that is overpriced and certainly not hearty portions.

I ate at Bumpkin on Tuesday night and it was the best meal I've had in London. The crowd were buzzy and the staff were absolutely lovely. I ate with a party of five and we all agreed it was fabulous. If you appreciate steak you'll especially love it at Bumpkin.

Bumpkin is cool! I loved it. The place is great, the food simple but tasty, the staff were nice and not snobby as they usually are in Nottinghill and Chelsea. Bumpkin also had great cocktails. I can only say you must go.
