    Always nice going here, the staff are excellent! The food is fresh and tasty. The only thing I would suggest is the spectrum of cocktails is slim. Aside from that a lovely place to dine for any occasion.

    Nice atmosphere in the venue but the brunch was disappointing. Extremely limited with the food options and it’s not clear on the menu. I liked that not everyone has to do the brunch at the table. With the brunch there was 4 of us but they wouldn’t leave the bottle so we constantly had to ask. This slowed things as we had a lovely waitress but she was serving other people so we felt like we were always calling her. My friend asked for some sauce and it arrived at the end of her meal so we tried to have some banter with management about getting shots as compensation- he declined but offered a dessert. I ordered a drink but it wasn’t put through, they rectified it and took it off the bill. It wasn’t a bad day but not sure I would go again.

    From the moment we arrived the service was friendly and polite. They made us feel so welcome and the food was delicious. Definitely going soon for those lovely rum cocktails.

    Everything was great at The Blues Kitchen! The food and drinks (especially the Tequila Colada!) were amazing, the recommendations were spot on, and our waiter Joe was absolutely wonderful. The vibe was great too – there wasn’t live music last night, but it still had a really cool atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

    Thanks so much for the kind words Beatriz—we're so glad you loved the cocktails! Our bar team puts a lot of heart into every drink, and they’ll be thrilled to hear your feedback. We’re thrilled you had a great experience—and we’re especially glad to hear you enjoyed being taken care of by Joe. The Blues Kitchen Brixton

    The staff were wonderful, really friendly service. The drinks were replenished at the speed of light! The restaurant was clean and inviting. We ordered the taco bowl and whilst the protein was seasoned wonderfully it could have done with some more flavor in the salad and rice. The fried donuts were delicious.

    Thanks so much Aisha for your lovely review! We're glad you enjoyed the service, taco bowl, and donuts. We appreciate the feedback on the salad and rice and will keep it in mind. Hope to see you again soon! The Blues Kitchen Brixton

    We had a wonderful evening. Highly reccomend the short rib sharer and the chopped salad. Best restaurant in Brixton in my opinion.
