This place is lovely! Great food, amazing service and a great deal for new years eve. It is worth going just for a cocktail, but if you get the chance to have a meal and enjoy the fantastic atmosphere you should go for it!Review
The Shoreditch Beach Blanket Babylon is a disappointment. The waiters don't understand much English. We had to request menus and were then given only one. The drinks were slow. The portions were pathetic. The main course arrived more than 30 mins after we'd finished the starters. There were only 2 puddings - and the creme brulee was terrible. And their coffee machine "hasn't been delivered yet". They need to buck up in a big way if they are to emulate the success of the Notting Hill branch.Review
The food was good, from a winter warmer soup, through scallops to a well cooked (rare) steak. Portions are small however even by goumet food standards (they need more mouse bouches if they are going to keep them this small). Service was very friendly, if a little chaotic - its not a well drilled machine yet. Overall a good place, though for the price (ok it was New Years Eve), I didn't think it offered great value for money, especially for this location.Visitors
