The Stoke House offers an inviting atmosphere and "great service" with a central location near theaters, making it ideal for pre-show dining. The "happy hour cocktails" and pre-theatre menu are praised for their "excellent value." While the steak quality receives mixed reviews, the "friendly staff" and "delicious" cocktails make it worth a visit.

    Trust the reviews, this restaurant won’t be here in 6 months unless there’s a Ramsey-esque change.

    Booked here since it was close to our hotel, we had a long day of touring, and the reviews were solid. We were seated immediately as the restaurant was not too busy. We were seated next to a large table that was very loud. No biggie, we didn’t complain. But it put us a little on edge since there were other open tables available. Service was very slow. We had to ask for drinks. Food was ok. My son and I shared the “meat feast.” Meat was a little bland overall. The chorizo sausage was really good. We ate everything and were full, but not stuffed. Not sure it was worth 35 pounds each. My wife had the Goat Cheese sandwich, which she liked. My youngest for the filet mignon steak, but didn’t like the outside being overly charred. We ordered desserts too. Apple crumble was good. We then had to track down our waiter to get the check. Overall, I wouldn’t go back given the lack of service and mediocre dining (especially when the bill ended up being $300 USD).

    I am thoroughly disappointed to have chosen this restaurant. Reviews are completely misleading. The service was super poor - I will give it to them that they seemed understaff with just 3 waiters, but the fact still is that, beyond having to chase every time to order, one of the waiters couldn't even tell which of our steaks was the blue one or the medium rare. Our burrata was supposed to come with olives and it didn't, and our steaks were supposed to have grilled shallots on the side and those were also missing. The steak itself tasted horrific, we had to remind the waiters we had ordered bernaise sauce (which I then regretted - it was cold, and very solid. You can get a better bernaise at M&S) Not only would I never return nor recommend, but I would actively discourage people to have a meal there

    The food is usually very good here but on this occasion we were served cold food. The service was good, the staff was friendly and professional, but the food was sub-par. We flagged this and were given a discount. Hopefully, the chef was just having an off night.

    Went for the pre-theatre menu - chewy steak, three rock hard potatoes. Service was underwhelming. The only positive was that it's nearby to various theatres. Unlikely to return - there are better restaurants nearby.

    Loved the pre-theatre menu, excellent value for money. Enjoyed the happy hour cocktails too! Very friendly and attentive service. We would definitely go to the Stoke House again.

    We were visiting, this restaurant was recommended by the hotel. The wings were flavorful, the Caesar salad was great! I had the short rib, flavor was there, but I, and maybe it’s me, think the meat should fall apart and off the bone. 12 hours in a smoker, that was my expectation. A bit fatty, a bit tough. Pork chop, again, flavor was good but a thin chop. One thing, for * seasoned * martini drinkers, mixologists, dry means a rinse around the glass with dry vermouth, gin shaken until icy, chilled glass, olives, no pits.
