    We have been to another CH pub recently and sadly the Alfred Tennyson didn't match the great experience and food we had at the Thomas Cubitt. All four of our party had the roast beef dinner and found the roast beef to be tough, the potatoes under roasted and everything, including the gravy, was cold. The service was pretty good, no complaints there. The toilets, however, were disgusting. There was toilet paper (used) and paper hand towels all over the floor of the ladies, the gents was worse (I won't go into detail!), they're clearly not checked or cleaned regularly. I felt the music was a little loud for a Sunday lunch service. Unfortunately we wouldn't return or recommend.

    Very good quality Sunday roast. Only gripe would be that there’s not much options to “level up” your roast eg cauliflower cheese, roasted parsnip, creamy leeks… I wouldn’t expect these as part of the roast, but the option to add would have been better
    The Alfred Tennyson Pub BelgraviaResponded on 28 January 2025
    Dear Helen, Thank you for your feedback and for enjoying our Sunday roast. We're glad you appreciated the quality and we love your feedback regarding adding extra sides. We'll take this on board as we’re always looking to enhance the dining experience. Hope to see you again soon.

    Made reservations, showed up - our waiter was great. And then they informed us they were out of probably 85% of their menu. You could have steak or steak tartare. 😳 very disappointing.

    Food was great but when I booked I was given a choice of bar or restaurant but when we arrived we were put in the bar which was busy and noisy and cramped. I was told they sit people where they can depending on how busy they are. That's fine if you're aware.
    The Alfred Tennyson Pub BelgraviaResponded on 5 January 2025
    Dear Bill, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed the food, but we’re sorry that your seating experience did not meet your expectations. We always aim to accommodate seating preferences as best as we can, though this can be influenced by how busy the venue is at the time. That being said, we completely understand the importance of ensuring our guests are comfortable. For future visits, please feel free to request a table in the first-floor restaurant when booking, and we will do our best to accommodate your request. We truly value your feedback and look forward to welcoming you back for an even better experience next time.
