Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I highly recommend booking a private party at the Eton Mess. We had a great area, the bar staff were so helpful and looked after everyone. Shaikh provided excellent service, and designed our own cocktail list, he was super helpful and put a lot of...effort to ensure we had a good night. The night was fantastic! Thank you Eton Mess team!More

I stayed overnight here. The room was lovely and had all the amenities I needed, plus the bed was super comfortable and had a mini fridge and a fan. The downside was that there was no milk on arrival and even the next morning -...they didn’t tell me there was no milk until after they had brought coffee. Disappointing when there is a shop just up the road! There was no choice at breakfast - a fry up was just served which was mediocre. Whilst it’s in a great location and the name sounded quaint, I’d say this was expensive for what it is, and for the quality.More

Totally awful service. Turned up for a reservation at 7:30 for food and drinks, was told by the rude waitress that they had an 80th birthday so the kitchen was closed. She then said someone should have contacted us to let us know about the...reservation. We said this was disgusting service, we had come a long way with friends who had not seen each other in a while to be told we could not eat on a Saturday night (bearing in mind this reservation was made months ago!!!!!) To add further insult another employee came over to say that he tried to call. This was a lie, no one tried to call and we had no missed calls, to make things worse we even had a confirmation email the day before saying “we look forward to seeing you tomorrow at the Eton mess”. Staff lie and are rude, they didn’t even admit their mistake, or offer to make it up to us with a discount on another day or help us to get a table elsewhere. We were actually scoping the place out too as a potential Christmas party reservation hire, but will now be avoiding due to the awful service and rudeness. Avoid at all costs as they clearly don’t care one bit about their customers, disgusting front of house staff too.More

Spent the evening at this warm and cozy place with a friend. The waiter Chris was a delight .. an absolute star at his job . He was kind, courteous, yet professional. The GM Amit was very welcoming and friendly. The food was brilliant as...well, so all kudos to the Chef, all the way from my side of the world...Goa. On the whole, we had an awesome evening and will definitely be returning for many more such wonderful evenings at this lovely restaurant.More

A great little place with great music and the right volume, great drinks from a proper mixologist. Service superb and attention to detail to die for. Not over priced and a great hidden gem.

We were disappointed. Wandering through Eton and this menu looked promising. We paid more than £80 for 2 very lacklustre chicken salads that were missing many of the components mentioned on the menu and a soggy fish & chips with 2 alcoholic drinks and one...soft drink. Bar staff arguing loudly while we were there. There was also a very over inflated service charge added to the bill. Could not in clear conscience recommend this place.More
