Christopher's is just beautiful inside, from the understated trendiness of the bar, up the candle-lit winding staircase and into the elegant dining room. The great decor and friendly service is matched by simple but quality dishes. We had the pre-theatre menu which is good value for money with 2 courses for about £15. The cocktails are also delicious and the wine list offers some very good bottles. I've dined here twice now and will definitely be returning!
The thought of an American Bar and Grill conjours up the horrors of a burger joint for most Londoners but Christophers is far far from this image. With a sweeping stone staircase (atmospherically lit at night by candles on each step) leading up to the delightful restaurant which is set in an elegant dining room (real table cloths and napkins) with lots of glass and polish. It has the menu and food to match the decor and an elegant evening is in store with attentive service and reasonably priced. We liked it so much that we held a private party for 30 people in the dining room annexe. We were not disappointed. I thoroughly recommend it as a dinner-party venue or just for pre/post theatre dinner and drinks.
From the moment you enter Christopher's until the moment you leave, you are really well looked after. The food is fantastic, great service, very friendly staff and after having both dinner and brunch here, I can highly recommend both. In fact, I am going back for my birthday at the end of March as I rate it so highly.
Christopher's was recommended to me and I was not disappointed. The cocktail bar on the ground floor serves amazing cocktails at reasonable prices and provides a perfect pre dinner experience. The grand candle lit staircase leading to the main dinning area is very impressive. When seated the staff are on hand to ensure all your needs are catered for. There is an extensive wine list to complement melt in the mouth food. I would highly recommend anyone to visit Christopher's.
We spent a very good moment in the bar downstairs, the cocktail menu is impressive and the service very careful.
We ended up staying much longer than initially planned !
I've been three times now, always for a special occasion and never has Christopher's disappointed. I have tried their brunch, the à la carte and the pre-theatre menu and all have been superb. The wine and the champagne are delicious, the ambience is wonderful and the service is excellent. For a special night out (as prices are a bit higher than Pizza Hut!) it comes highly recommended. If I could only afford to make it my regular eatery........ I'm off to buy a Lottery ticket!
I went to Christopher's recently with some work colleagues. We started in the cocktail
bar, and sampled some of their brilliant selection of very well made cocktails. Nice
atmosphere in the bar too.
Dinner was excellent. Great variety of dishes, great presentation, although I was a
little diappointed by the size of my desert, but all round excellent quality. Service was
attentive without being overbearing, and they happily changed my drink without fuss when
a mistake was made.
Would recommend Christopher's for an excellent evening out, but save up first as it is a
little on the pricey side, but certainly justified.
Absolutely fantastic, the food was gorgeous and the atmosphere was brilliant. The Martini bar was very ambient with the low lighting and candles, the choice of drinks was amazing. Upstairs in the restaurant the waiting service was very professional and efficient would definitely dine there again. The only problem was the tables were quite close together and the people next to us could hear everything we were saying and vise versa, other than that it was a perfect night. Highly recommended.
Had a fantastic pre-theatre meal here. The set menu was varied and great value, the food was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. And we loved the Martini bar for drinks before we sat down for dinner!
