Metro Garden

Had a lovely dinner with a friend under the sunset in the secret garden of Clapham. I love the charm and setting so please never make it modern as this makes it a perfect setting for dinner with a friend or celebrating a special occasion. Food lovely, service very attentive and th house wine is very good. Until next time, I plan my escape to the Secret garden with friends.

as always a wonderful experience, amazing ambience, delicious food and service that is second to none! Metro delivers time after time and the garden in the sunshine is an oasis of calm!

The good was great and the atmosphere good. The garden gives a very romantic feeling. All the waiters are very friendly. I would recommand Metro Garden

The Sunday roasts were excellent, veggies cooked to perfection, meat very tender and my husband's beef was as pink as he likes it. The freshly cooked chocolate brownie pudding with vanilla ice-cream was divine. Highly professional and friendly staff who made is feel very welcome and relaxed.

The rough appearance of the place wasn't what a pair of old folks expected because it didn't reflect the photos in the website; so rather disappointing on first entry and sit down and didn't develop a lively atmosphere this Tuesday evening. However our younger guests observed that it was 'cool'. Staff were nice. Food good and well presented.

Such a lovely relaxed vibe in the garden with tasty food too! Service was with a smile - informal and very chatty! Great place for a girly catch up or date night x

Metro is a long-standing favourite and a safe bet for a lovely atmosphere, terrific service with a smile and great quality food. they are also very flexible and accommodating where 'tweaks' are requested due to food intolerances. No exception tonight, although I did report back that my fillet of sea bass was a little on the meagre side I comparison to their usual quality. Otherwise, all good in the Metro hood.....

The staff were very helpful and fun but service from the kitchen very slow. For my taste the food was too salty but I do still like the venue. Usually the standards are higher

Great food, we had a Sunday roast with all the trimmings and it was very good however, the service a bit slow and it was difficult to get waiters attention in the garden where we were sitting

Romantic, tasty and a bit different. The outdoor setting is great for the summer. We were tucked away in the conservatory and it felt very private.

Huge portion size. Service was excellent. Very romantic. Great value for money. I would highly reccomrnd this to anyone looking for a romantic affordable Sunday roast.

If you want a quiet and relaxing time, book your table at the back in the garden room. We made the mistake of eating in the wine bar, which although lovely, became very noisy and the music was turned up much too loud. The food was good though.

Amazing restaurant. I've been going there for about 16 years and never fails to amaze. Great food, great service as always and I love that they keep their fairy lights all year round. Love it!

Really nice restaurant, great atmosphere, staff very friendly and pleasant. Only one slight issue, ordered the baked camembert cheese to be told they didn't have which would have been nice to be told upfront. Otherwise a good evening and will definitely go back!

I really liked, was the first time but i will be back, the lamb was so tender and the desserts just amazing. Totally recommended. Thanks.

Un moment magique dans ce petit restaurant de Londres. Ambiance tamisée et musique qui s'y accorde, plats délicieux. Idéal pour un diner en amoureux ! Au prochain voyage à Londres, il est évident qu'on y retournera. En espérant que le temps nous permettra de voir le petit jardin.. L'accueil est parfait, merci à eux pour ce beau moment.

Lovely restaurant with a cosy atmosphere and tasty food. It was a good choice for a Valentine's diner with my partner. I definitely recommend it.

Restaurant is really cute and perfect for a quite dinner. Food is lovely, but if you are vegan I would recommend to get in touch with restaurant directly and do not rely on booking special requests as we came the waiter had no idea that one of us were vegan, therefore the chef did mix the food and it was a good experience.

A good cosy environment to have a meal. The food was wonderful, just some meals were selected for certain days and also the unlimited fresh bread was not offered.

The restaurant was easy to find,the staf was Nice but the food was a little bit expensive. What a pity that we had to pay for the bread (not mentionned by the waiter).

Great food and a really nice atmosphere, attentive staff and great wine choice. Portions are quite generous, not the biggest fun of the set menu but that a la carte menu is great.

Great food and lovely atmosphere, loved all the fairy lights

Awesome. Thanks - staff were excellent. Food was fabulous and the ambience with the garden was utterly stunning. A great night all round and some free bubbles

I took my boyfriend for dinner last Friday evening and we had a great time! The food was average (main course lamb had a really sweet crumb - a little too much maple) and they had run out of a couple of wines which was a shame, but overall we were well looked after and once a few more tables arrived the atmosphere was nice too! I would recommend checking in advance if the garden has a private booking as we had hoped for pre dinner drinks out there but it was not available. Also, don't get there before 8pm on a Friday night as it will be empty!

Important things first the food was divine, the service was friendly and helpful, they were happy to accommodate me being gluten free and the wine was really lovely. The setting was the reason we chose this particular restaurant, it has a beautiful garden area, unfortunately it bucketed it down that day so when we arrived we had been moved to an indoor marquee area, still garden-esk and very pretty and daintily set out with bricked walls and twinkling fairy lights. But to be honest the indoor was also very chic and quaint so I wouldn't have minded being sat in there either! But for when the weather is nice the "secret" garden looks cute and spacious! One tiny tiny word of warning, not that it bothered me but might bother others, they offer bread when you sit down but it isn't free it's a £1. All in all a truly lovely evening and I would happily return!

The food was excellent and the wine was also very good and quite reasonably priced. Only criticism might be the shabby state of the conservatory area we sat in, which has definitely seen better days.

Pleasant. With 5 mains available, choice was small if one particularly wanted a specific main. One steak, duck, fish, vegetarian and the other one. All looked to be cooked well so that is a benefit and makes financial sense.

The garden is so beautiful and calming. My partner and I split four starters and were very satisfied. The tuna and the duck egg bruschetta were very tasty but scallops and ginger pig meatloaf were our favorites. Will definitely be returning.

Great food and service at the metro garden, would certainly go back

We had excellent service and wonderful food. The staff are easy going but professional and attentive. The food was delivered promptly, and was very tasty. The Garden is just lovely on a summer's evening. Highly recommended for a "date night".

My steak was overcooked so hand to send it back. The staff didn't seem too impressed with me asking them to send it back. Afterwards the service was really slow and we eventually had to go up to the bar to pay our bill as the staff took so long sorting the bill.

The food was great but service very poor. We waited over an hour for our dessert which never came, eventually we gave up and ordered the bill (twice) which never came... After finding the manager ourselves to pay and complain, the 12.5% service was still added and no discount offered.

Good food, great value, friendly staff. Located right next to Clapham Common tube station so it's an easy venue to get to. Have since been back again.

Really great sunday roast, great service and beautiful garden in the sun.

Lovely restaurant but I preferred it when the garden was more open. Good food but menu a bit limited on a Sunday. Good friendly service. Probably my favourite Clapham restaurant

As always fantastic, Andy is the best host. Never fails for food, atmosphere or wine. I never write reviews but felt I should for these guys.

Overall had a lovely night catching up with a girlfriend. Staff very friendly and accommodating - making us cosmopolitan cocktails which weren't on the menu. Food was fantastic and the atmosphere. Could improve on service as we had to ask for the menus etc,,, not sure if they cover specific tables as we had 3 different people serve us.....Will return again for sure...Marian

Food was superb, and staff are great - good for a chat. Very relaxed and fun feeling to the place. Has a great low-key vibe to it. House wine is yum too. Nicely decorated and not pretentious at all. Need more places like this in Clapham! Will definitely go here again.

Great restaurant, friendly service and yummy food. Good value overall. Could do with a freshening up in the bar area.

great food, great atmosphere. good staff. felt like we were out of London. Would definitely go back and so convenient as right by the tube
