I loved this place and would return often if I lived in London. Each dish was delicious and well received by our table. We had a tasty array of dishes and sampled several from the beverage list. Really warm, down to earth service too.

Really delicious, lovely staff, nice vibe. Not my finest photos but we ordered all the ‘small plate’ items plus chips and butter bean hummus. Mackerel and fish cakes were particularly standout. Would deffo come back! Only complain is the rustic wooden table was a little wobbly!

Had the Sunday roast here last weekend! The roast was really good, but what captured us the most was the vegetable - especially the broccoli side dish. The brocolli was charred a little bit, which goes perfectly with the sauce!

We just had the pleasure of dining at Rabbit Bistro and we are still feeling completely elevated thanks to that incredible meal. We had the Chelsea in Bloom Prix Fix menu at 55/person which included being greeted with an effervescent, floral-forward cocktail. The food was, well .... I may never brush my teeth again. The grilled asparagus with goat cheese mousse was stunning. The pork tenderloin simply sang in our mouths - if I could have ordered a shot of the accompanying sauce it wouldn't have been excessive. The cheesecake with cherry was delightful and tied a bow on the whole affair. Special mention to their local wine selection - the Nutbourne Bacchus was perfect and paired well with the menu. The service was quick and courteous, the kitchen was on top form. 10/10, would visit again!

We went later in the day and appreciated the calm, relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant wasn’t crowded, which made it feel even more intimate and cozy. The service was excellent; attentive, friendly, and helpful in guiding us through the menu. The food was outstanding. I highly recommend the lamb with spinach puree. It was tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. We finished with the apple pie for dessert, which was crisp, warm, and the perfect end to the meal. Definitely a place I’d return to and recommend to others looking for a quality dining experience.

We were greeted warmly. We were very early diners so the place was not yet full. It certainly was when we left two hours later! Had a great house Gin Cocktail, and 3 of us shared the house bread/butter, the chorizo and the goat cheese tartlet. All delicious and served by great friendly wait staff. I had the beef rump, while friends had the duck breast and the pork. Incredibly flavorful with sides of house chips, charred cabbage and a Brussels sprout salad. We will return as we had not been to Rabbit for quite a few years and wanted to try it again. You did not disappoint and we will see you soon!

My family and I had their Sunday roast on our recent vacation to London. Big decision as we could only have one Sunday roast on our trip. We were so happy we went with Rabbit. We ordered the Beef, Chicken and Lamb and shared with each other. My favorite was the beef then the chicken then lamb. Each dish tasted great though. Potatoes were nice and crisp and the Yorkshire pudding was lovely (our first time tasting one). Our server was very kind and gracious with our questions as we had never had a roast before and made the great suggestion of ordering multiple roasts to share amongst the table.
