The Rookery - Speisekarte

I visited the Rookery for the first time and had a wonderful experience. The pub has a lovely outdoor seating area in front and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Although I didn't try the food, the drinks were excellent.

Came across this bar walking along Clapham common. Really cosy and such a nice vibe! Had the cider pork with parmesan polenta really tasty comfort food. My boyfriend had the buttermilk chicken with mac and cheese which was also amazing. Would recommend and will definitely be back!

Having driven a group of ladies up to Clapham Common for the Moonwalk we decided to have a pre-walk fuel up at the Rookery. The food was really good, the portions very generous and the staff, although young, were really friendly and efficient. The prices I think were also reasonable. Good ambiance and would recommend.

I’ve never been somewhere where you just don’t get food. We ordered at 3pm and were told it would be a 40 minute wait. That 40 mins went on for an hour and after that we asked several times when our food was coming and they would say it’s coming and it just never came. Two hours later we had no food. The staff were very nice but honestly that was the most terrible dining experience of my life.

Really don’t understand how this place survives. Very run down bar. Ordered Blood Marys. Almost undrinkable. Food took 50 minutes to arrive, despite us being two of only six people in the place. Very basic, all over-cooked, two parts genuinely inedible. Still tried to charge us for service. Over-priced. Not many places in town you can describe as both ‘poor’ and ‘over-priced’, but The Rookery is one.

Been there before but I swear it’s better than ever. If you haven’t tried this hide away bar with its lovely cuisine then you’re missing out. Carl (the chef) works miracles with flavours, I don’t know how he does it. Go for the buttermilk chicken. It’s to die for. There is a menu for everyone, veggies as well. This Aussie bar is authentic down to the barman Darcy. A friendly and welcoming place with great atmosphere it was a pleasure to eat there. Speisekarte ansehen

We came for the Sunday roast. Our table had five people, so not a particularly large group. Anyway, lots of issues. Oy! Our table wasn’t ready for our reservation, the food took an hour and ten minutes to arrive (although one meal arrived fifteen minutes before the rest and had already been eaten by the time everyone else’s meals arrived), when mine arrived the chicken was dry and over cooked, and for my friends who ordered the beef, the portion sizing was all over the place (they had to even out the beef themselves). Mine also didn’t come with a Yorkshire pudding as advertised on the menu (the waiter also tried to argue that it wasn’t supposed to have one until I pointed to it on the menu,...

Visited for an anniversary dinner and left very happy. We were given time to look through the menu, were not rushed to order all our courses, and there was no pressure to order extra drinks. Food: We started with the cured meats and cheese, and padron peppers which was delicious! Next we had the sweet potato and chickpea burger, and buttermilk chicken and mac'n'cheese (which was so so good! . The chicken was a little too crispy/too much batter but the chicken was moist and tender. Drinks: The cocktails were delightful, and they offer 2 cocktails mix'n'match for £10 on Fridays. Atmosphere: Lovely, chilled and relaxed, if a little cold (wrap up warm! . Unfortunately a large group arrived and s...

The restaurant appeared pleasant, and I visited for Sunday lunch with a group of 10 people. Despite expecting a longer wait time due to the size of our party, we were still left waiting for over an hour for our simple Sunday roasts. The restaurant was busy, but it seemed that very few tables had received their food. It was puzzling as the roasts seemed like a straightforward dish to plate up, rather than requiring complex cooking. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to expectations - it looked good but lacked flavor. Surprisingly, the red onion was the most tasty element of the meal, overshadowing the beef, potatoes, and gravy. The extended wait time and disappointing food experience wer... Speisekarte ansehen
