Reviews
Brilliant concept.
We used a virgins couple voucher and never having heard of Clink Restaurants we decided to give it a go and so glad we did, the food was excellent and way beyond our expectations.
The security before we entered was easy, and added to the experience. The restaurant was well laid out and looked welcoming and cheerful. All the waiting staff were attentive and appeared to enjoy the role, answering all our questions. The chefs produced some of the best food we have had and all presented to a professional standard and we wish them well if they choose to enter the trade.
The menu was varied and something for everyone.
We would certainly recommend the restaurant and will hopefully come back.
Good luck to all involved
Overdue review. I visited a few months ago.
We had a lovely afternoon.
We really enjoyed our meal and the experience.
The waiter's tried their best to be professional which was amusing at times. I'll call it "road man with manners" service.
I'd definitely recommend visiting.
My only criticism was the cheap, flimsy, plastic, cutlery. Obviously given to us for safety reasons, however we were also given glasses to drink from! A bit of a contradiction!
There's much better quality plastic cutlery out there and for the cost of the meal, better quality knives and forks would have been appreciated.
Came here for a meal for my birthday as a surprise. It was delicious the food from starter’s to dessert’s and everything in between was amazing it all tasted fantastic presentation was as good if not better than some other restaurants I have been in despite no alcohol the homemade ginger beer was lovely as was the spice 92 I had they have a really good selection of drinks on the menu also have to say the best flat white coffee I have had it tasted like coffee not warm milk. And the guys who wait on you are a lot better mannered than some waiters I have come across. They do a fantastic job. And if you go like we did in December and have their Christmas menu the mince pies are delicious. I would highly recommend and we will definitely go back. So if you can book a table it’s really worth a visit. Not allowed to take pictures which is understandable.
I was here with my partner and it was her birthday dinner. She was curious about this and so we decided to try.
The whole experience was very good. The food was delicious, we had 3 courses, the staff were friendly and very professional. The restaurant itself is decorated nicely, and although you never forget you are inside a prison, it's never gimmicky or voyeuristic.
It was wonderful to have a really well-made and well-served meal, and that this contributes to giving inmates a chance at obtaining a hospitality qualification makes it even better. I will definitely recommend it to others and, if they let me, I will be back!
Wow. An excellent experience. The staff are very welcoming, the restaurant is impressive and very well designed, and the food was even better!
Each course was delicious, well presented, and served. The staff were attentive and very polite. An all round brilliant place to visit.
I had a virgin experience days voucher to use so me and my boyfriend went for lunch today and it was an excellent experience! We found the security checks easy enough and just added to the overall experience.
When we entered the restaurant, the workers were extremely friendly and attentive - we had John as our server and he was really lovely. Throughout our time here we had a lovely chat with him to find out about his prison experience and he said he had 8 weeks left and seemed excited.
The food was amazing - between us we had soup & pate for starter, duck & pork tenderloin for main & 2x chocolate desserts and it was all of really high standard! One of the best meals in London we’ve had.
Overall the experience was excellent and we would definitely go back - was nice not having our phones on us and only having mocktails! Wishing John and the other servers all the best, you can see how much this job and training meant for them all.
We ate here last year and I am overdue rating it. Really excellent luncheon. Our server James was very attentive and the program is interesting. It seems everyone gets a chance in the kitchen, at the bar making the delicious mocktails (we each enjoyed two) and serving the guests. If you live in London it is a must do experience. We were visiting from Canada, so for a tourist it is an excellent reason to get off the beaten tourist paths, support a worthy cause, and then we spent the afternoon in Brixton. We got a tea towel souvenir too!
Yesterday I took a group of 15 members of our U3A for lunch
They all were totally surprised at the quality of the food and presentation. All the staff did an excellent job and were very polite and helpful. The professional staff did a very good job of overseeing and and were very supportive
This must be one of most unusual venues in London and well worth a visit
