    Firstly from the gentleman at the first reception outside. Very warm greeting and immediately asked if we had a reservation. Excellent and classy, looked dapper might we add. Secondly, the young lovely lady at desk in the restaurant. Fabulous greeting and wished us a happy anniversary which was really a sweet touch of class. Very welcoming and friendly. Super service and excellent representation of the brand. Our main waiter was brilliant and also answered our queries and provided great recommendations. Efficient service all round and we did not wait long to be offered drinks as well as ordering our main courses. The food was excellent. Full of flavour and great portion sizes. Presentation was 10/10. The Anniversary cake was rounded off a wonderful evening my partner and I truly enjoyed. We are really sorry that we didn't take the names of the staff. However, it would be rude for me to describe them by appearance. We will return for another special night. Madison..... magnificent Lasselle

    Another wonderful evening at The Hoxton Southwark. I hadn’t been for a few months, but it never fails to impress—always warm, welcoming, and consistent. The staff go above and beyond to make sure you’re seated somewhere lovely, and the food was outstanding. Huge compliments to the chefs for their consistently excellent work. A special thank you to the front-of-house team, especially the delightful young lady who looked after us so well. The Hoxton feels like coming home—I always look forward to returning.
