  “A quick note for other East Asian diners here: our group, along with other East Asian guests, got seated in a cold, draughty corner at the back even though there were plenty of open tables in the main dining area on Tuesday. I've lived in London for more than two years now and this is honestly the first time I've noticed something that felt like clear segregation in how tables were assigned. Service overall just felt off. When we asked to have the optional service charge removed because of the seating and how we were treated, the staff took it off without even asking why, and didn't say thank you when we paid. Food-wise, the schnitzel was a letdown - nowhere near the crispy texture you'd get from the real thing in Germany or Austria. Between the cold table, the lack of basic hospitality, and mediocre food, this wasn't a good experience. I'd flag this for other diners, obvious, especially East Asian visitors, so you know what to expect.”

  “Stopped of for a small beer on the way home, very spacious place with plenty of outside seating for the nice weather and people watching. Staff were friendly and atentive. Clean and well maintained as ypu would expect. If your waiting for a train at King's Cross its worth a stop in.”

  “The 3 of us had a pleasant early dinner here. Two of us had the Sommer Schnitzel, the ceaser salad it came with was good and had some lovely big anchovies, however the actual chicken was a little dry. I tried a little of of Kassler with sauerkraut which which was fine too. For desert the Apple strudel was very tasty with a crispy pastry and a warm custard and whilst being very sweet the Black Forest Tart was popular amongst us. However I just felt the food was good without being delicious and the glass my Flensburger beer came in wasn't especially clean.”

  “The two person sharing portion was huge and the meat was exceptionally cooked. However, I think four people can share the meat and then order other dishes. Service was good but they don’t notice much when I need water refills. However, they gave me a jug after that so it was good. Mandatory service charge of 20%. Atmosphere, interior design, music and the quality of the food was excellent. Good place to take guests- And super clean washroom too with a very nice hand lotion/handwash.”

  “What a brilliant discovery right in front of St Pancras station! Huge building, with a fascinating sporting history. We had the breakfast menu, salmon & scrambled egg and it was a hearty size, with avocado as an extra side. And once again, lots of tea! I love my builder’s tea.”

  “I was excited to come here with my partner because I wanted him to experience the food I had enjoyed in Munich. We used first table discount app. Upon arrival We were a little confused on where the front door was there were open entrances all round. Once seated the service was prompt and attentive. I wanted to have a cosmopolitan cocktail but it wasn't on the menu. When I mentioned that, the hostess assured me this could be accommodated. The Jägermeister mule was very nice and light, and the cosmopolitan was delightful. For starters we had the goats cheese salad and the beef tartare. The tartare was nice but the salad was light, crisp and the dressing was perfectly balanced. For the main the pork escalope and pig knuckle were chosen. The meals were delicious. The beef jus for the pork knuckle was the absolute finishing touch. The creme brulee was nice but too cold, but the cheesecake was to die for.”

  “Second best to none Customer Service which is super attentive to small details and predicting your wishes. Find is also excellent and there is no other place in London offering this level of German food experience. One downside - the place is really cold and air conditioning can make you feel really uncomfortable. Dress warmer and enjoy GG!”

  “Great dining experience. Ravi was incredible to us. Very happy with the pork knuckle and white asparagus schnitzel. The starters of salmon and the steak tartar were incredible too. And to finish off the dessert was marvelous.”

  “​Went there for a Saturday night dinner. The atmosphere was very nice and inviting, making it a great place to unwind. The beer was incredibly good and perfectly cold, just as it should be. The staff were also highly professional, friendly, and polite from start to finish. It is definitely worth a visit.”
