Myself and a friend stopped off at Neighbour for some food and a drink before a Lacuna Coil 20th anniversary concert at the 02 Forum just across the road this past weekend. As it was my friend’s birthday we wanted to select somewhere which looked interesting, inviting and had character. Neighbour had all 3 in abundance.
I can’t stress enough how friendly every single member of staff was during our meal. Everybody worked together to ensure we were never lacking for drinks, food or dessert. They couldn’t do enough for us including bringing everything to the table and asking how the food was. I asked one of the staff if they could suggest something for my friend’s birthday and after listening to what she likes made her a cocktail she thoroughly enjoyed. The interaction we had with all staff on duty was an absolute pleasure; we felt truly welcome and looked after from entry to leaving.
The food we were served was immaculately presented and tasted excellent. The lamb which I enjoyed was very tender and the accompanying veg selection complimented to create a superb main. My friend enjoyed one of the best dressed salads of her life, the taste matching the presentation. The desserts were rich but not over facing. Dishes to enjoy slowly and savour, I had a crème brûlée which topped off an almost decadent meal.
As we left they said they hoped we enjoyed the show. Visiting Neighbour beforehand was by far the best choice to ensure we were already very happy before heading to the venue. If I find myself in the area again next time I’m heading into London Euston I’d not hesitate to take a short trip to Kentish Town to try some more of Neighbour’s excellent menu.
Had a fantastic experience at Neighbour last night, the food was all delicious and we loved the tapas feel of mixing and matching the small plates. Great selection of wines and lovely staff. Was also fabulous catching the last hour of sun outside on the terrace with an apperitvo before our meal. Will be coming again!!
We had a fantastic evening, 4 of us came and all enjoyed the wonderful service and even better food. Highly recommend the lamb ��
Will be back!!
