The Harwood Arms

We really loved The Harwood Arms. It is such a pleasure to have exceptional food in a casual, relaxed setting. The dining room is rustic and cozy. And even though The Harwood Arms is a pub, the service is top notch.

The food is classic British cooking with a focus on game and wild meat. My favorite dish was the venison scotch egg with Oxford sauce. It was beautiful with a runny golden yolk. My only complaint is that it came out with instead of ahead of my starter as requested.

The thyme flavored sauce on the rabbit lasagne was phenomenal. The Berkshire Fallow Deer was perfectly cooked and served with mushrooms and onions. They had dessert special, a date custard tart, that we were lucky to get.

I also enjoyed their gin list and tried three different English gins, each one delicious.

I highly recommend it.

That was the best Sunday Roast I've ever had. Every course was perfect, and the service was fantastic. Highlights for me personally were the vegetarian scotch egg, the roast venison, and the apple dessert. Will definitely be going back.

You have to book months in advance to get a Sunday slot.
food was lovely, the beef was perfectly cooked, the potatoes a little bit to crispy for our liking. the scotch egg was delicious, really full by the end but we had to share the desert at the end
would definitely book again and recommend to all my friends.

Limited menù but excellent quality throughout.
Lots of deer dishes so that you can have a full deer menù starting with an outstanding grilled tongue. Even beef was very good.
Extensive wine list a bit on the pricey side for an Italian ( the wine list presented at the restaurant was different from the one on the web side so that the wine I had chosen ahead was not available)
Service informal but attentive.
Absolutely to recommend.

These people giving this place less than 5 stars clearly have no taste. The food here was incredible. We went for the venison scotch egg to start, and I think I could have died happy there and then. But there was more. We shared the onion tart and tomato, which was difficult because neither of us wanted to give up the other half. We then got the deer and beef for mains. Wow. Couldn't fault it. Dessert we managed to squeeze in, and they were even sweet enough to arrange a last-minute Happy Birthday plate, which was greatly appreciated!

We will definitely be back. Probably for the roast!

Why we haven’t been to The Harwood Arms is simply unacceptable - what a pub! In fairness “pub” doesn’t do the Harwood justice, and for those in the know it’ll come to no surprise this is the only Michelin starred gastric in London…..

We sampled the whole shooting match starting with their scotch eggs (inclusive of veggie variant) which were quite simply amazing. Every dish continued the theme, with no plate coming off the table with crumbs on it!

Service was impeccable, with the extra effort made by the team who gave Ali’s an extra dessert due to being recently wed.

What a treat, make sure you visit.

Delicious Sunday roast! Definitely superior to most I’ve had in the UK!
The roast, cod roe dip, malt bread and onion tart were delightful!

Tried the 3 course menu. Overall was a really decent lunch. Onion tart with goat cheese was delicious but really filling. Chips with roe was surprisingly good. The fallow deer was perfect but the cod was slightly overcooked.
Would still highly recommend to come try their lunch course.

At the heart of a residential area, The Hardwood Arms has a nice pub vibe. We arrived for a weekday early dinner but couldn’t find a place to sit rather than the bar. One can have a Michelin Starred dinner at the saloon but the bar only serves snacks. Don’t worry: it’s a rather short list but you’ll have one of the best scotch eggs in town. The crips with cod roe are also unmissable.
Wouldn’t recommend arriving without a reservation but it's definitely a great spot to start the night with some snacks and drinks.

BEAUTIFUL! The food was just delicious - probably the best Sunday Roast I have ever had! We had the Cote de Boeuf which was on the specials board and it was most certainly worth the price! The staff and the atmosphere was warm and relaxed and made for a delightful Sunday afternoon! Highly recommend!

My partner, friends, and I had an unforgettable New Year’s Eve at The Harwood Arms in London. Opting for their special tasting menu, we were treated to an absolutely incredible dining experience. The food surpassed all expectations, and each dish was nothing short of outstanding.

The service was notably friendly, adding a welcoming touch to our festive celebration. While the New Year’s Eve menu won’t be available year-round, the exceptional quality of both the cuisine and service leads me to believe that any visit at another time would result in a similarly positive experience.

A highlight of the evening was the venison Wellington, which was an absolute masterpiece and exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend The Harwood Arms for those seeking an exceptional dining experience in London. This establishment truly made our night memorable.

I was nervous that the hype wasn’t real (bc Gordon Ramsay food was so trash), but it really was worth the hype!!!

The food was soooo good. I wish we could come back sooner. The roast duck for 2 was perfectly cooked. One of the best roast duck I’ve ever had.

Tip: move your duck to the middle of the plate before you start cutting or you might tip your plate over 😂

Thank you so much for this delicious meal! 😋

One of the best Sunday roasts I’ve eaten in a long while! Delicious food, amazing Bloody Mary and such friendly staff. This place should be on everyone’s hit list for Sunday roasts 😋

Menu is for 16th November 2023

The food here is amazing and delicious, the presentation is awesome and I would definitely come back here again. Excellent 3 course meal!

One of the best restaurant in London due to its relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff and amazing food.

Either as a couple, friend lunch / dinner or a group the experience will be excellent.

The menu adapts very well to seasons and a particular favourite period is fall with the game based dishes.

Wowowowow. We did the Sunday roast on a bank holiday, and we were blown away.

The Scottish egg is a MUST.

We paid up for the sirloin roast but tbh the pork looked quite good , maybe even better! Certainly bigger! Unless you're really craving steak, go for the pork.

You can opt out of the desserts but we went for them anyway. The blood orange trifle was sublime but we were less thrilled/impressed by the panna cotta.

Quite an amazing gastro pub with great food and service! I can't find the photos of all the food we've tasted but everything we tried was good.

What an incredible Sunday lunch. Stunning food and very generous portions. The only thing that let it down was the restaurant was too warm with no aircon / ventilation on an average summers day

Astonishing. This is my best friends favourite place in london and now I see why. This is the only Michelin star pub and now I see why. We had the venison scotch eggs, potato chips and seasonal veg salad to start. All were filling light and bursts of flavour. We both had the deer and there are simply no words for how stunning it was. Beautifully cooked, light and hearty at the same time. I didn’t love the veg that complimented the deer but the flavours did work well. This will become a staple for celebratory dinners in the future. Staff were amazing and actually knew the menu and could comment on so much. Beautiful interiors too. What a special place. Seriously.

What a gem of a place, can't wait to visit again. Amazing food, helpful, lovely front of house. What more could you ask for 😋
