We were looking quite last minute for a Sunday Lunch in London and came across this place. Well... it was amazing! We loved it - it is so weird to be in such a busy part of London and then in this little oasis of calm. The restaurant is gorgeous, the service fantastic, and the food itself was sensational. Highly recommend the prawn cocktail, smoked salmon, roast beef and roast chicken. The sides were great and generous. Definitely will be back again when in London!

As ever with Firmdale, excellent standard and choice on the A La Carte menu, delicious dishes and top notch service. I can highly recommend the monkfish. The staff engage in friendly conversation without being intrusive but equally if you don’t wish to, they respect that.

I love the atmosphere at the Ham Yard, but we didn’t find the menu too appealing. There were not many fish options on the menu and the gin and tonic I had was flat and uninspiring! Will think twice about going back again. The service, however, was excellent.

This is a particularly good restaurant, with fabulous bar, the ambience even when quite quiet is lovely. The current fixed menu food offering was excellent, food was beautifully presented and delicious as usual. Also there is a good range of wine, reasonably priced for quality “by the glass”. Service was attentive and pleasant: front of house team was on the ball from welcome and service to providing bill. We shall keep coming back.

Lovely meal at the Ham Yard. We had the Hake and steak off the set menu, with hispi cabbage side and all were delicious. Not sure about the red pepper in the chocolate dessert, though… Overall, though, great with superb atmosphere and friendly staff too. Will definitely return. Thank you!

Always delivering outstanding service, but our recent experience with Alexandru as our waiter was exceptional. Food was heavenly and my dairy intolerance was catered for without compromise. Keep up the good work Ham Yard, can’t wait till we meet again ❤️
