10/10An unforgettable dinner inside an insulated bubble in a lovely green garden under the starry sky. We ordered the set dinner on the menu and the food was delicious, especially the bruschetta, the garlic and chilli prawns, and the vegetable kebab. Service was superb. Great ambience. Will definitely visit again.

10/10I had bought a BUYAGIFT voucher for Afternoon Tea pods a few years ago but couldn't book and exchanged fir a standard one. I was extremely pleased to find London Secret Garden Afternoon Tea pods on the Fork so booked as soon as I could. The venue is just around the corner from Gloucester Road Station so we arrived 30 minutes too early. The staff allowed us to take a seat while the pods were prepared. It was surprisingly quiet and we had a whole pod to ourselves. We opted for the classic Afternoon Tea and ate every last morsel. We could decide which part we liked the most, bit the actual scone was so yummy, I saved the second one last. I'm going again at the end of June and hope to fill the whole pod with 8 of my friends in July, maybe a late night one to see what its like lit up. Even though a pod was being disassembled, it was a thoroughly enjoyable day and the weather helped!

The atmosphere with the light is magical, you would love it, and I would encourage you to go for our new pan-asian sharing menus, The Sakura Collection and the Palate of Orient. Looking forward to welcoming you back! Kind regards, Charline from London Secret Garden

8.5/10A lovely setting in a pod so very personal for a group. Food was lovely but we all thought more savoury would have improved the experience.

4/10The Food was average, the service was bad for what you expect. Mainly beacuse they don’t ask how everything is en check on you. The setting was like your sitting in a waiting room. So overall not worth it.

2/10Such a rubbish place. Waited 50 mins for an afternoon tea and it was not even busy. Poor service, not as nice as you thought. I walked out. Also noticed the kitchen door was broken, just hanging side way on one hinge. Good luck with those who want to go.

5/10I booked the afternoon tea for 15:15, however we were put on the list for 16:45 so when we got there we had to wait for 15mins to set the table which was fine but then when we got our hot drinks, it did took a little while for us to receive our food. My coffee was already cold by then. After the food, it took a little while for us to get the bill too. Overall the service was pretty slow.

10/105 of us enjoyed the Afternoon Tea with added cocktail/prosecco. Our server, Usman, was lovely & worked hard to make sure we were well looked after. The afternoon tea was lovely, fresh sandwiches & lovely sweet food too. The lemon Cheesecake was particularly tasty. We were warm with with lovely heaters in our pod & the lights added to the ambience with the Church a beautiful backdrop. Great value for money with the Fork offer. Definitely recommended.

8.5/10There was confusion about reservation. I had booked an igloo for 7 diners. The host had a reservation for “the garden” only, which is patio seating, actually closed in winter. After some conversation, we were accommodated in an igloo, but with 90 minutes time limit as another party was expected. The staff were attentive and well meaning but there was a half an hour wait between appetizer and main course. We were able to linger slightly longer, but had to move to inside restaurant for dessert; not nearly so atmospheric a setting as the igloo. In sum, the initial confusion over reservation was stressful, but the team did their best to provide a nice experience. Food was tasty. Igloo give top marks for solid structure and magical garden setting, perfect for the holidays. Recommend app be more clear on how to select “igloo” option to avoid confusion at the door.

9.5/10Food was excellent, perfect ending to a wonderful trip. However there was a guy/waiter, probably new - someone told him the numbers of the tables - who made this experience kind of strange, in winter he let the doors open and when we were leaving he asked if we paid, which was strange because he hadn’t had anything to do with our table the whole time (to say of course we payed)

3.5/10For a festive tea there was very little ambience with very few Xmas decorations. This was exasperated to some degree however by very few other diners I suppose the though. Service was extremely slow and we had to ask several times for water and additional drinks. Food however was very good let down only by the fact that the cutlery and glasses were dirty: a further long wait for replacement. Underwhelmed
