Goat Tavern Mayfair in Kensington

I took my family here for a quick bite and a few drinks. Food was delicious and the beers were cold and tasty. Super friendly people in a warm and authentic pub atmosphere. What more could you want?

I said "medium-rare" when you asked how I wanted my steak, but look at this mess. If you're just going to cook it like this anyway, why even ask? And the fish and chips we got were even tougher than the steak. Honestly, it was one of the worst meals I’ve had in London.

Popped in here for a pint of IPA whilst my other half was shopping. Didn't have time to eat but loved the ambience of the place. Good beer and friendly service. Hidden away from the bustling shops of Piccadilly, it was a great find.

Reservations placed prior for the Sunday roast. Requested the beef. They said that they had been out of the beef. We tried the chicken. Very bland. Tasted boiled. Underwhelming.

There is lots of dark wood in homage to old London pubs and etched mirrors around the walls to make the bar seem bigger and add a bit of character. . The beer line up was straightforward with a couple of cask for the purists. I opted for an Estrella, my pint was decent but the price point was high and reflected the area. The food menu is British pub classics, Fish and Chips costs £16.49. . The pub was busy on this late Saturday afternoon, there were about twenty or so punters in including a group of ladies from up north who were out on the razz. The chap behind the ramp was pleasant and laidback, he had everything under control in this buzzy little boozer. . The Goat Tavern was an enjoyable visit but price point was above average. The service was good and the atmosphere upbeat. Pound for pound there are better pubs in the area but why not see for yourself. . ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 14/01/23
