Hard Rock Cafe

Hard Rock Cafe is definitely one of the best places in London to eat. It is amazing!!! I absolutely love it. Yeah, so what if there is a queue, the food and the service is brilliant. There is a fantastic atmosphere. I have five people in my family and we can never agree where to go, but if we are staying in London we have HRC every night, IT IS THE BEST!!!!!

Absolute rubbish, what an appalling place !

The entire upper floor was closed for food because the kitchen was being refurbished, turning the place into a giant waiting room for tables downstairs. Funnily enough, the expensive bar was working fine though, as the mug punters waited 90 minutes to finally get seated.

Lukewarm bog standard "franchise" food, served to people who were past caring by the time it arrived anyway.

Ghastly, truly ghastly.

Best restaurant!!! YOU MUST BE KIDDING!!!

This place sucks! I've been to tons of Hard Rock Cafes and never have I ever moaned about one before until now. Looks great from outside but crowed (Ok so thats to be expected really) on the inside, we went downstairs and waited 25 minutes for table (again thats fine, dont mind)

Toilets were dirty and only 1 ladies working so kids were bursting!

When we sat down we ordered our favourite nachos, rubbish, so we left half of it and didnt moan. Something went wrong with the main as it took over 30 mins to arrive whilst everyone around us were getting theirs and out waitress kept confirming "its coming right up, 2 minutes!!" (HA!)

Then as hubbys came, the plate was so dirty it put him right off so he sent it right back and went without. kids food were not special, my salad was nice. So the manager did come over and offered us free deserts but by that point we didnt want his free deserts or money off we just wanted to leave and go to a better place!

Never again!

Today was my friend's birthday and we decided to go to HRC to celebrate his big day. Well, our experience there wasn't exactly the best ever. Not only did it take a long time to get a table but once we did we got a two tables put together in front of a busy area where personnel run back and forth. My friend and I got sauce spilt on our shirts. Customers were trying to pass through us because our tables were placed in a bad spot. And at last the food were bad. Two of the steaks we ordered had to be redone because they were overcooked. My Hickory spareribs were nothing but bones and was charred beyond recognition. In the end when we got the bill we paid ten pounds less than the recommended and optional service charge and was questioned by the waitress why we have not paid the full service charge. We explained that it was nothing personal but because the food was so bad we decided not to give the full service charge. Needless to say I will have second thoughts about going there to eat again.

My husband and I were craving some good ol' American grill and decided to try the Hard Rock Cafe after reading through some good reviews. The restaurant doesn't take reservations, so it is advisable to get there at least half an hour before the intended time to eat in order to get your name on the Wait List. Weekends are particularly busy but we waited only half an hour on a Saturday night.

The menu offers a reasonable selection of dishes, and prices are reasonable. I had a big steak and a Corono, my husband had baby back ribs and a massive cocktail, we both had huge desserts and the price came up to just under £50. We were expecting it to come up to a lot more so we were pleasantly surprised.

Taste-wise, the food is one of the better restaurants we've eaten at in London so far. They do some pretty unique sauces for the BBQ stuff, which you can't easily replicate at home. Also, we had the nicest waiter ever, who met our every need and more, and was extremely hospitable. Totally earned his service charge, we feel!

To sum it up, eat at the Hard Rock Cafe if you're looking for some filling portions, good service, decent pricing and the buzz of hanging out at a rock music eatery.

The Hard Rock Cafe has become my husband and I's favourite place in London. The Meals are plentiful and decilous, the staff are always friendly and go out of their way to help you, and the cocktails are huge and so so yummy!

It is a fantastic place to go out and have a great meal, few drinks and a boogie on the dance floor if your not too full! And if the conversation gets a bit dull just take a look around you for some amazing costumes, musical instruments and awards.

Without a doubt a must go to in London, I've been to other Hard Rocks in the world and this one Rocks them all.

There is nothing I don't like about this place. It's an excellent place to go for a great night out!
