Best Bistros in Camden Town

I had a wonderful lunch at Andrew Edmund’s today. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a charming, intimate feel that made for a relaxed dining experience. The food was exceptional—beautifully prepared dishes with fresh, high-quality ingredients that showcased a perfect balance of flavors. From the starters to the dessert, everything was thoughtfully presented and full of depth. The service was equally impressive; the staff was attentive without being intrusive, offering excellent recommendations and ensuring everything was just right. It was a truly delightful meal, and I’d highly recommend it for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Particularly enjoyed the sharing pie today.

Absolutely delicious. We'd dined previously at the sister restaurant and this was for our friends visiting from back home, and they were so happy. Perfect portions, very fast turn around and very well cooked. Lovely staff and great selection on the menu

We love coming to Kettners. It’s an oasis of calm in busy London. Service was not as good as usual. Had to keep asking for drinks and top ups of water. Portions small. But we come for the atmosphere and very relaxed setting. It’s a tradition we hold to always meet at Kettners, but would love a little more bang for our buck. We will be back as it’s great. Preferred the food when the previous chef was in charge. French food doesn’t need to be fussy and expensive.

Very nice staff, lovely wine and dessert! But the only thing to consider is they don’t have a toilet so be aware to when booking.

We had some issues with several of the dishes. In particular it seemed the kitchen, on this occasion, struggled to deliver fish dishes that were not far too overcooked - not great when you're asking for things to be rare or medium. And even if you're not asked (as was the case with one of these dishes) they should not be prepared like that. First time here and whilst not a great fan of the low tables and chairs we had an enjoyable time. Until... ca 2.45pm when all of the restaurant, literally every table, became an afternoon tea party. That drastically changes the end of a lunch experience and not for the better. We decided against having a pudding and more wine and fled the scene. Shame. Standout service delivered by Valentina.
