The rooftop and venue was beautiful and very quirky. The colourful decor and design makes it a very “ Instagram” worthy venue for sure. The food was tasty and delicious. The cocktails were tasty and I would say that the quality of the food and...cocktails was pretty great too. If you are looking for a little bit of a quirky colourful venue for drinks or a catch up while in London, this place is pretty good for that. Would be awesome to go back when the weather is warmer to take full advantage of the rooftop for sure.More

We have always been big fans of the ETM brand for many years, and have been regulars at The Aviary. We felt that our last few recent visits hadn't been to the standard we expected, but after our weekend visit, they are definitely back on...track. We stayed over at the Mont Calm, and had breakfast in The Aviary. 100% the best breakfast we have had there, both in customer service delivery and the quality of the food. We ordered from the A La Carte rather than the buffet and it was superb. Having said that, we did dip into the buffet to have meats, cheeses, fruits and salmon, and it was clear the food was great quality. The new breakfast Manager, Maria, is very hands on and demonstrated her excessive knowledge in the Industry....a very welcomed addition to the team. As it was an unexpected glorious day we decided to stay the day. We negotiated one of the new pods and spent the day drinking cocktails served by Louis. He made me one of his own takes on a rum punch, deliciously garnished with nutmeg, which we named "meet me in St Louis". The pods and the ambience of the rooftop is a winner, certainly the best they have had to date.....it really does feel christmasy and Laplandesque - clearly a lot of investment has been released to get to this standard. We stayed for a late lunch and had the lamb and the cod from the A La Carte menu. Superbly cooked and once again the quality of the meat and fish was clear. I get the impression who ever is responsible for F&B is sourcing top notch supplies reflected on what is delivered on the plate. Thank you to Florin, Head Chef, for the great food and also your time to speak with us. As ever a big shout out to Robert (Papi) & Dwayne who looked after us on the Saturday night. Also a big thanks to the Manager, Justina. She works extremely hard, is very engaging and clearly cares passionately about service delivery and the ETM brand.....another good find by ETM resourcing. Based on this visit, and based on the current Team, who after all make the experience, we will be booking for a winters night in one of the pods. Well done ETM for getting back to where we know you should be.More

Aviary cancelled our sons 18th birthday dinner at 10 days notice, knowing they had a book out for a month which they say had not been finalised. Our trip to London for 3 nights was centred around this night with friends as we’re coming down...from Edinburgh. They then offered an alternative venue which has 25% 1 star reviews and a glass of Prosecco, which the senior sales manager admitted she wouldn’t book herself due to “serious operational issues” - though she did offer free private room hire and without credit card security which we had already given for our booking at £10 a head. They then offered a game restaurant and a sports pub. Exceptionally poor service, cynical and cavalier attitude - won’t surprise me if they charge us for not accepting the venue change such was the experience !!!!More

Very nice bar, good service from everybody. Special thanks to Amirul,Nik, Kris, Pravin and Lennart 👍 Some fine drinks here!More

Lovely rooftop bar and restaurant but the food was decidedly underwhelming in choice, portion size and flavour. The drinks were good but the service was pretty rubbish. All in all not good value for money.More

We went to Aviary for a late lunch. A glass of champagne at the terrace with a fantastic skyline view. We had a three corse lunch, fried burrata with cherry tomatoes for a start, a lovely halibut for main course and a heavenly chocolate mousse/...brownie for dessert. All dishes came with perfect wine pearings, recomended by our professional and friendly waitress Andrea.More

We came last night for a friends leaving drinks m, and we had such a great night the music was the best I’ve heard in a very long time.at the venue having been a few times before, and the food and drinks was amazing, amazing...staff and amazing bouncers will 100% come back,.More

Visited with a friend and we really enjoyed the restaurant. It has a buzz to it for sure, it's loud and busy but incredibly well staffed and attentive service. The wine list was fantastic and we were delighted to find a delicious Margaret River Cabernet/Merlot....Our waitress was absolutely brilliant as was the manager (black and white striped shirt) who we passed on our overall complements to. (He very kindly brought us some complimentary limoncello at the end which we loved) The seafood pasta was delicious. The steak was worth the trip in itself. Only two tiny gripes: one was when I ordered the smallest sirloin steak which was, I think 550g, they said 'sorry we don't have that in stock, we've sold out, but we do have the 600g one'. They are charging something like £95 & £100 for these steaks, which is expensive, and I personally think if they have run out of the smallest one, but have the identical offering at 50g and £5 more, then they should offer this at the price of the small one as that's what the customer wanted. I went ahead and ordered the 600g which I couldn't finish, but like I say,I think the correct gesture from the restaurant would have been to charge for the steak I wanted- it's not a huge difference in price but makes a difference to the impression made. Secondly, like I say the staff were brilliant. The guys behind the bar, the waitresses. The chefs, their energy was contagious. There was one man who was walking round with his phone, he seemed to be maybe the main manager and he kept pointing his phone right at us and other diners- I'm not sure if this was him monitoring headcount or something, but it was quite off putting having him parade past with his phone pointed everywhere over and over. Overall we loved dining here and we will be back!More

Really not up to the standard for the price. Nice staff but really poor brunch experience and very expensive. Tired building, poor quality food, small selection. Very limited hot food. Not the 5* experience it markets as. Would not go back.More

Great spot, not too busy brunch, great day, a wonderful atmosphere made unique by the violinist!! absolutely stunning. We stayed until late evening. Thanks to all the staff. We surely come backMore

Came for brunch, self serve food was average, order food was average. After eating and paying our bill in excess of £200 (for 2 people) we moved to a table outside on the terrace and after 20mins got asked to move due to a hotel...reservation and then to another table after that. No consideration for what had been spent or creating good customer experience. Go if you’re a hotel guest. Don’t bother if not.More

I requested a large glass of rose. I was presented with a glass of whispering angel and bill of £28 which included a service charge!!! For what?! No alternative roses were offered. I felt robbed and didn’t spend anymore of my money at this place....Disgusting price.More
