    I used come here often when I worked in Holborn. It is still a good bar, with a selection if wines spirits and draft beers. It good to come back after 5 years. New and young staff, and proficient. I had a large Rioja, very expensive at £10. Others were eating and the food looked good.

    The best bottomless brunch! I’ve been to two here and it’s the best value! Staff are lovely and attentive. Especially Ed! Love the way they top up the drinks without being asked. So much better than canova hall!

    Great atmosphere as usual in an All Bar One venue. We had a bottle of wine and 4 small plates which all really tasty and all the plates were very nicely presented. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice clean toilets, which makes a change from some places in London.

    Went here for lunch. Staff service is fine. Food is OK but not enough of it drinks were fine. It is expensive for what it is, accepting it is still central London but the value has gone. Happy to pay a higher price but needs to have either more food or something special about the food. The staff were great the lrompt service also good and good views from most seats.

    Just went for cocktails so haven't rated food. Went for the 2 for 1 cocktail offer, and had the margarita and this delicious pink drink which I can't remember the name of. 100% recommend trying the pink drink haha

    Called here for a burger and the staff forgot my order. After 30 minutes I went to chase it and was told they didn’t have that burger. The manager was very apologetic and refunded the meal and also made an alternative without charge. More importantly I got the impression that he genuinely cared about correcting the mistake. Sometimes businesses mess up but a great business will always bend over backwards to make things right and make sure the customer is satisfied. When the alternative arrived it was delicious.

    Came here for breakfast as I was working in London for the day and fancied something other than fast food for a change. I ordered the eggs Royal, which was well presented, and the poached eggs were spot on. It didn't take long for our order to come out either, and it was quite busy in there. Jose, the lady who served us, was very attentive and chatty when paying for the bill. Will definitely come here again to eat whenever I'm in the area.

    Our dinner tonight at All Bar One was so great. Fun and friendly staff. Very attentive with bringing drinks, checking in, making sure everything was ok… Food was fantastic and different from anything else we had eaten whilst in London. The popcorn chocolate brownie was super fun. Chloe was our hostess and so nice and friendly. Would definitely recommend!!

    What a little gem in Central London. I popped in for a lunch meeting with some clients and what an experience. From a warm greeting at the door, to excellent customer service at the bar and a genuine big goodbye and see you soon. I will definitely going back soon.

    Everything about our dinner was beyond compare. Melissa and Lukas were so welcoming, attentive, and, unfailingly kind, even though we arrived 40 minutes before closing. The staff plus the ambience made us feel entirely at home. The quality and presentation of the food is impeccable at such incredible prices. We will absolutely be back! Thank you to the chefs and wait staff. You absolutely made our dining experience special and a trip highlight!

    Best bottomless brunch I’ve ever been to. It wouldn’t have been as special if not for Kate, what a diamond. Best customer service ever. She made our time so so special and I can’t thank her enough. She is sooo good at what she does

    Gorgeous place for breakfast, the full English was one of the nicest I've ever had! The ladies working there were so welcoming and friendly. Will be recommending All Bar One to anyone coming to Holborn!

    Booked a Workspace for a day for myself and three colleagues. The service was perfection, the food was delicious and quick, the workspace booth was comfy and had power sockets. The staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful throughout our stay, very highly recommended.

    Jamie the manager was great. Travelled up from Wales, needed places to drink and he openly helped us book somewhere to watch the football. Huge help!!

  • 5/5 Iqra 3 years ago on Google

    Lovely bar. Very clean. Excellent service from all the staff. A good bar to catch up without extremely loud music blaring making it impossible to have a conversation. And my cocktail was so good

  • 5/5 Sennokazeni9 1 year ago on Google
    We went for a bottomless brunch last month and had a great time. We arrived early which was happily accommodated, everything was very prompt and efficient. The brunch was very nice, and while the place was busy there was always someone around to ask if we needed any drink refills.

    Amazing bottomless brunch, we went for HenDo, staff were friendly and helpful had an amazing time

  • 5/5 Briana L. 2 years ago on Google
    My first time visiting London and I randomly came across All Bar One. Amazing food find. The staff was extremely nice and the food was A1. I took a recommendation and tried the salmon skewers, so good! I have a few more menu recs i need to try before leaving.

  • 5/5 Rusimbi N. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a really nice server who sorted things out for us even when there was an issue with the food. Was a bit upset we had to pay for a big mistake, but all in all there's seats for lil kids and we got m&ms and was able to sit down and eat and leave when ready. Nice an quiet when we got in there too

  • 5/5 Ellie F. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing hosts and an amazing experience! Elaura and Tereza were very friendly and were attentive to our table ensuring we were kept topped up with our bottomless brunch! I will most definitely be coming back again! Fast service with great food and even greater drinks! Announced we were here for a few birthdays and our hosts ensured we were well looked after! Thank you for a great time!

  • 5/5 Ivelina M. 1 year ago on Google
    We had such an amazing time with Elaura celebrating my boyfriend's Birthday. She was absolutely amazing!! She should get a pay rise! Elaura was super friendly, and had a lovely smile! We loved our stay! Thank you for everyone who made it super special! The service was amazing, the food was amazing, ... we will be coming back!

    Lovely bar and great staff. Had a late breakfast and food was lovely. A bit over priced but it is London..

  • 5/5 Thijs V. 1 year ago on Google
    Planned a bottomless brunch elsewhere which was scheduled. Fortunately the All Bar One Holborn was flexible and could provide us a table. Food was good and Laure came by frequently to offer us whatever we needed. Would recommend this experience thanks to Laure! Cheers! 💯

    This bar looks really nice however unfortunately it is let down by some staff.. The female manager was just so rude and actually laughed At me when I phoned to confirm a booking and explain we had a disabled person with us and would need to be sat at a normal hight table with chairs not stools. We had a booking for 20 and when we arrived on time our tables weren't ready and there were other customers sat in them. The member of staff behind the bar was exceptionally rude and told us just to sit anywhere but I told him there were 20 of us. The male manager was really lovely and moved the other customers as they should never have been sat in our reserved space. There were only 2 members of bar staff on a Saturday night so it took quite some time to get served any drinks, One of the men behind the bar was lovely the other was exceptionally rude to several in our party this is really unacceptable and we will not be returning. The only reason I gave 2 stars instead of one is because the male manager was friendly to begin with but then we didn't see him again for the rest of the night.

    I visit All Bar One on a Wednesday evening. To my surprise it was a busy night but I want to say a special thanks to Matheus the bartender He made sure my drinks to arrive on time. Great cocktails and excellent atmosphere.

  • 4/5 Lucille D. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely bar assistant, food good, 4 stars given as houmous not very nice, tasted soapy. All other food lovely. We’d booked a table, but was very noisy on arrival. Lovely Elaura found a quieter table for us-thank you

  • 1/5 Toyosi D. 1 year ago on Google
    This is my third time at this particular All bar one, but the experience I had on the third go was not great. The first time I went, I had steak and fries, which was just alright, not the best but does the job. On my second visit, I chose the prawn, chorizo pasta. This was so delicious, and the portion was very good, so filling. Which led to my third visit to have the pasta again as I felt my stomach deserves something good before the Christmas break from work. This time around I ordered the Prawn and chorizo pasta again but I was disappointed, very small size, not as delicious prawns were no as many. If they changed chef then they need to rehire who ever used to cook for them. I left there still so hungry that I had to buy sausage rolls from the Greg's next to them. However, not to be all negative, I ordered this really lovely hotcholate drink and it tasted as good as it looked. So I will recommend the drink but may be not the food.

  • 5/5 Ivo K. 1 year ago on Google
    We had an early Christmas dinner here with a group of nine people. It was surprisingly good. You might think an All Bar One cannot do good food, but this was a fixed price Christmas buffet, which was actually brought to your table, and half a bottle of wine per person. Great tasteful food, both veggie and non veg. 5-6 different options, and if something was finished, it was immediately replenished. Excellent experience.

  • 5/5 Luke T. 8 months ago on Google
    Had the best bottomless brunch here with my girlfriend. The food was delicious, the cocktails never stopped, and the staff were incredibly friendly. Massive shout-out to Justina and Ed for their brilliant service, you were absolute stars. 5/5 would recommend!!

  • 4/5 Arvin 3 years ago on Google
    Last day before lock down and great adherence to social distancing guidelines, fantastic service levels and brilliant drinks. Their speciality 'Birdgage' being one of them. Would have given 5 stars if it was not for the price. A little expensive otherwise definitely a must go place after work or before the theatre.

  • 5/5 Nicole B. 3 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Faith G. 3 years ago on Google
    After a morning of finally getting out to museums, wandered around for some time looking for a place to eat. Luckily All Bar One was open and welcoming. The wait staff was impressive with their efficiency and politeness. The Vegetarian quesadillas were interesting! Thankful for the veg option at any rate.

  • 5/5 Nancy H. 3 years ago on Google
    Can't wait for this place to re-open after lockdown! We will miss it so much. Amazing food and service, like non other! Lovely interior . Go in the mornings for brunch!

  • 5/5 EL 3 years ago on Google
    This is one of my favourite places to drop into for lunch when in Holborn. Their vegetarian burger is AMAZING!!! The staff are always super friendly and helpful, especially that time I desperately needed a bottle opener 😂 thank you so much! Definitely check it out if you're ever in the area.

    Always find this branch of all bar one to be superb! Staff friendly, helpful and the cocktails are always on point.

  • 2/5 ingnan 3 years ago on Google
    Nice bar and staff, unfortunately my dish (a cheese-bacon burger and chips) was stone cold, and the cocktail I've ordered was served in a red wine glass. I can forgive the last thing, not the cold food.

  • 5/5 Chris 3 years ago on Google
    We stopped by for some drinks and a quick bite to eat before a visit to the Top Secret Comedy Club, we were seated straight away and service was great. Food and drinks delivered quickly, great atmosphere

    We visited on a Sunday afternoon, wasn't too busy. Our table was behind a corner so we felt very cosy and almost like we were alone. Our server Chloe was great, friendly from the moment we stepped in. Ordered some calamari and sides to go with our cocktails. Honestly a great experience, can't recommend enough!

  • 3/5 Dee H. 4 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    The service was fast but the food was disappointing. I visited before and recommended this place to my friends but there must have been a different chef on because it wasn’t so nice. The batter on the fish was greasy and hard whereas before it had been so light and delicate. No peas came with the dish and I remember the peas before were so fresh and tasted amazing. We had to ask for some and when they came they were awful. My friend had chicken bacon and Avacado salad but there was no bacon so we had to ask for bacon which came out in a separate dish. We were given some complimentary puddings which was a nice gesture.
