sketch London Reviews from The Last Year
The ambiance is amazing.
It's definitely an experience. The tea is delicious and the treats are abundant.
Best afternoon tea.
Great service. Amazing place. Has a real cool vibe. Beautiful interior. A must try.
When you enter through the dim hallway going deep inside
When you enter through the dim hallway going deep inside this building, you feel like Alice passing through the looking glass and following the rabbit down the hole. The two separate dining rooms have different motifs, one with an under the sea Little Mermaid vibe and the other, a brightly painted whimsical Wonderland. You would think this place popped out of Lewis Carroll's head. The atmosphere is surreal and you feel like you're joining the Mad Hatter, the March Hare and the Dormouse for high tea. And there is a three piece string ensemble in the corner playing popular tunes on violin, viola & cello. The ladies did very good instrumental renditions of Coldplay's Viva La Vida and Justin Bieber's Sorry. We are here for high tea with friends and the tea selection is excellent. Since we could order as much and as many different teas as we wanted, I started with the black teas, first a pot of Earl Grey and then Darjeeling. All tea pots are individual and serves about 2 cups. Then I moved onto the Phoenix Honey Orchid, which was very mild and my favorite. Of course, I had to have it with honey, which came in a little carafe. My last pot was the Organic Dragon Well green tea. The tea sandwich and cake tiered tray is the main event. Each of the sandwiches, the Coronation Chicken, Cucumber, Salmon & Ricotta and Croque Monsieur are cut into finger length rectangles. The chicken and ham & cheese of the Croque Monsieur were excellent, but I was surprised I really liked the cucumber as well. Request as many more sandwiches as you like and they will bring more. But don't forget the sweet side of the tiers with multiple cakes. Then things got a little strange. Having consumed so much tea, I was first to seek the rest rooms, which were in an adjacent room. I thought I was transported to Woody Allen's movie Sleeper. Up the stairs into the stark white high ceiling room was a bunch of 6' tall white egg pods which reminded me of Robin Williams, Mork's spaceship from Ork. I had to ask the attendant in a maid's uniform to find me an available "egg". Someone please pinch me. At the bottom of the room was a round lounge area with 70's motif that the musician's took their breaks between sets. The service was impeccable with exceptional attention to detail, as expected from a high end restaurant. Overall, this was an amazing experience that I would recommend to anybody visiting London. Don't forget to point your pinkie finger as you raise your teacup to your lips.
Afternoon tea - mothers day
Stefan looked after us, great service and lovely to come back after 6 years. First Mother’s Day made very special for my wife
Lovely tea time in great atmosphere!
The atmosphere and the venue itself was very lovely, also totally not what you would expect standing outside the building. We were there for afternoon tea which was accompanied by a string trio (felt very Bridgerton like). The staff was very attentive and friendly. Would definitely recommend not eating anything before for quite some time as everything offered (except for the sandwiches) is quite sweet and will make you feel full after only the first course. We were not able to eat the scones (second course) and the sponge cake (third course) but it was kindly packed for us to go. You can ask for more during your time there if you found something particularly tasty but again, there is only so much my stomach could accept. The tea options were great as well. It's quite pricey though (£80 per person) considering the amount that was offered.
Delightful solo dinner
Friendly and professional staff found me a table when I had booked wrong sitting Delicious Marg followed by the gnocchi with truffle and cream and fries The bathrooms are so cool along with the rest of Sketch very impressed
Fun take on afternoon tea
I’m all about the chic vibe! There was a string quartet playing the day I had tea. It was a festive atmosphere and not stuffy pinky up tea at all. I loved the variety of teas available. The food was a work of art.
Delightful afternoon tea & bubblies!
Our afternoon tea and bubblies at Sketch was absolutely delightful! We enjoyed every bite. The sandwiches were delicious and the assortment was nice. They kindly offered more sandwiches if we were interested. The tarts, cake, eclairs, macarons, scones and more were fabulous. The presentation was over the top and the service was on point. We enjoyed the lovely violinist that entertained us during our visit. When in London we will return.
Wonderful evening
The food, service and ambience was fantastic. We visited with a 12 year old and our teenagers and everyone engines it. We booked a table of six and everything was superb from start to finish, a must visit! Beautiful dancers added an extra special touch for the evening and the cocktails were sublime!
Average place, not worth your time
Average food in the overpriced place. Run out of oysters. Truffle fries didn’t had no taste of truffle Good service though
I was being treated like a fool.
I was very disappointed because we ordered set meals for two of us (£75pp) and after having the staters they served the the main course which contains pork and I did we don’t eat pork please replace with anything else and the said no problem after having the 3 course meal I received the bill around £226 and I ask this is incorrect and they answered saying that they couldn’t cater the set meal so they charged a la carte menu. I did not receive any apologies I just paid the full amount and walked out. I was very disappointed at least let me know before hand. The worst thing about this restaurant is the food is very average. I will not recommend this restaurant to anyone else because it made me feel that I was being treated like a fool.
We loved sketch! First of all the ambiance is so beautiful
We loved sketch! First of all the ambiance is so beautiful and there's so much cool art in there. The bathrooms were also so futuristic haha it was really fun to just see. The service is incredibly! My friend and I did the high tea and we also got some great cocktails with it. I didn't necessarily lovee their food (it's high tea ya know tea sandwiches, biscuits were ok), but I think you more so go for the experience and tea. Tea was fantastic as we got unlimited tea for our 2 hour experience. I'm so glad we decided to do this and it's certainly a fun experience if you never experienced high tea!
Amazing food in a luxurious environment
Stunning food in a fabulous environment, attention to detail was perfect as expected from a 3 star restaurant, the staff were informative and friendly
I must start this review by giving a special shoutout to Mr.
Angus Agnew, the guest relations director at Sketch, who made our trip to Sketch such a memorable one. If you don't know, Sketch is a gorgeous multi-space restaurant with a variety of dining experiences. From a three Michelin star restaurant to a bar located inside the bathroom, do your research and determine which of the many Sketch experiences you'd like to partake in. When visiting London, it's an absolute must to come here- even if just so that you can get that infamous bathroom mirror selfie. We decided to do the afternoon tea experience. We arrived a few minutes early for our reservation, but our table was not ready. We immediately began chatting with Angus and loved his lovely, welcoming demeanor. After realizing our table was taking longer than expected, he made our wait worthwhile and took us on a mini tour of the space! We got to explore all the different exquisite restaurants and were blown away by the level of detail in the design of every corner of this space. It felt like our own little private tour and for two American tourists, it made for quite a memorable evening! Once seated, we got to enjoy our afternoon tea. Because we came during New Years, we enjoyed the Christmas tea which included a variety of winter themed treats! You'd think that tea wouldn't be so filling, but by the last course, we were stuffed. During the tea, we enjoyed the sounds of live musicians playing Beatles classics and a ballerina on pointe dancing throughout the room! What an experience. Sketch is a must, period.
The cocktails are incredible!!! We also love the vibe here.
The music and decor is unique!
Perfect afternoon tea
My partner surprised me with a trip to sketch for afternoon tea and it was very good, probably the best we have ever been too. Our waiter, Marco was excellent, very attentive and eagerly refilled the sandwiches and cakes whenever we wanted more. All the food tasted great and looked amazing and the venue was wonderful with interesting art, a great vibe and hilarious egg/pod shaped toilets. We then decanted to The Glade bar for cocktails which is a lovely place to relax. It is pricey but great for a special occasion and completely painless when someone else is paying. The only downside was that despite trying to mind meld with the stern looking chap with the champagne to loosen up when he was pouring, I still only got the regulation amount (small) each time we ordered a glass.
Ok, this place gets a solid 5 stars for ambience, decor,
Ok, this place gets a solid 5 stars for ambience, decor, and friendliness. But if you are coming to eat, not just take Instagram photos, don't expect to walk away feeling completely satisfied. The minute you walk in, the decor is on point. It really is dreamlike. They have such lovely staff working. Multiple greeting points, coat check, and super organized. I had high hopes at this point. We were greeted by our serves, both extremely friendly, but not overly fussy towards us. The food, lackluster. There are two sides to the menu. Traditional and "open minded" we chose two from each side. The filet was pretty bland, and in my opinion, ridiculously chewy. Scallops (from the open mind section) were delicious, but only came with 3. The soufflé of scallop and fish was off putting. It basically tasted of only eggs with a mild scallop flavor, drenched in heavy cream. Surprisingly, the most flavorful dish was the gnocchi and the side of fries. Again, lovely place. But the emphasis is on the aesthetic not so much the food.
Solid 3.
5 experience! Ambiance (5/5): Wow, this restaurant is absolutely magical. I don't think I have ever dined at an establishment with a unique avant garde vibe. Their bathroom is a must see, you will be blown away! They also have different rooms throughout the restaurant, each with their own theme. Service (5/5): Our server, Marco, was extremely attentive and honest. When we asked for his suggestions he didn't push the more expensive dishes on us, which we appreciated. He checked up on us frequently and made sure we had everything we needed. On top of that, the food came out in a timely manner. Food (3/5): Their food and cocktails were average at best. Nothing really stood out. We ordered the scallop carpaccio, roasted venison, and artichoke heart. The scallop carpaccio was extremely gritty and almost tasted like we were eating sand. Additionally, it had zero flavor. Our server was kind enough to remove it off the bill and recommended that we try the grilled scallop instead. This dish was served with a pumpkin puree and we thought it sounded enticing so we agreed. Unfortunately, the dish was extremely underwhelming-- it's almost like they tried too hard to be creative with the pumpkin puree. Quite honestly, it did not pair well with the scallop and for $56 USD it most certainly was a waste of $$$. The venison was not bad, it came with a cabbage salad that we enjoyed and the artichoke wasn't terrible either but again for the price point we were expecting more. The food at Sketch was severely overpriced and underwhelming at best. Overall, we have been to far better restaurants across the globe and the food at Sketch was not as creative as we had hoped it would be. For their price point, come and grab drinks by their bar so you can enjoy their unique ambiance-- if you are into that!
Sketch you were lovely and worth all the hype I saw online.
Came to London and everyone recommended getting a resy at sketch! Online it was fully booked, but we walked in and asked (during the busiest time of year) and they had availability. They keep spots open for walk ins, we were able to come in for high tea the next day! It was lovely, food was delish and drinks were beautiful. Highly recommend.
The afternoon tea experience was incredible! We came in at
The afternoon tea experience was incredible! We came in at the beginning of December after booking online. One of the reasons I chose Sketch was because they have special menus for those who have vegan and vegetarian dietary requirements. I emailed ahead of time to make sure I noted that on my booking, and a staff member responded quickly and assured me everything was taken care of. When we checked in with the hostess, she brought us to a cute booth in the yellow dining room. I'm a little sad they changed the decor from the lovely pink I've seen in photos, but the new renovation is still beautiful. The waiter was with us shortly with a big smile on his face. He explained the courses we would get included with afternoon tea, and let us know we could order as much tea, coffee, and water as we liked. We were also able to order seconds of any of the pastries or sandwiches. For my first pot of tea, I ordered the Phoenix Honey Orchid Oolong, which was earthy and nice. But after trying a sip of my cousins Vanilla Black tea, I just had to order some for myself! I loved it so much, I need to buy it. The vanilla came through strongly and gave such a creamy flavor. As for the food, we were amazed from the first bite. We were given 2 appetizers, then brought a 3 tiered stand of our sandwiches and desserts. My favorites were the cucumber sandwich with a quail egg on top and the coronation chickpea salad sandwich, which I did get seconds of. Then we were brought scones (our choice of plain or with dried fruit) with cream and jam. Then we were offered more cake from their dessert table, and finished off with the lovely little macarons. We finished everything, but they did offer to box anything up. Now we have to talk about the bathrooms, which is the other reason I chose to dine here. Not only are they clean inside and out (I have tons of video to prove it), but they are art. The entire restaurant is art from the moment you walk inside- the ballerina that danced through the tea parlor, the string duo, the decor, and the cute drawings within the menu. It was above and beyond what we could've imagined!

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
