This was my third visit to this restaurant. As always, the food was delicious and the Slovenian white wine was impressive. However, I must say that the highlight of the evening was the outstanding service provided by a lovely young lady with a French accent. She was lively yet composed, attentive, and elegant.

Maybe I chose the wrong thing on the menu, but the chicken and mushroom cake I got for £12 was a bit ripped off. it wasn't even a short bake, it was a ceramic dish floor and came served with cauliflower, and that's it. not sure how the price was justified, but the pub is generally quite pleasant, especially in view of the condition of the kentish town high street close.

Perhaps another court and visit more fertile prove, but I was not abandoned irradiated and my wallet was much lighter.
This was my third visit to this restaurant. As always, the food was delicious and the Slovenian white wine was impressive. However, I must say that the highlight of the evening was the outstanding service provided by a lovely young lady with a French accent. She was lively yet composed, attentive, and elegant. She recommended the fish dish, but I opted for the smoked lamb, which was one of the specials on offer. I have never tasted lamb so tender and flavorful! I have travelled all over the world and tried many dishes, but this one definitely ranks among the best. I must also mention that my two Australian guests thoroughly enjoyed their consistently delicious fish cakes. I apologize to the young lady, but her infectious laughter truly added to our dining experience.
The Kater Pub is a perfect spot for a fun and cozy atmosphere, complete with cute decor, board games, and a great background playlist. We ordered from the £10 set lunch menu, starting with the chicken liver parfait and tomaten and chili spaghetti for the main course. My friend had the soup, which she said was incredible. I was too busy enjoying the spaghetti to remember what she had. The meal was so tasty that we couldn't resist ordering dessert. I had the apple, pear, and almond cake, which was delicious, while my friend opted for the sticky toffee pudding. Overall, we had a great meal with smiles all around, and it was surprisingly affordable for a three-course lunch.
Last Tuesday, I treated my parents to dinner at The Lion and Unicorn in Kentish Town. My father is quite picky when it comes to restaurants - he enjoys a good wine list but dislikes pretentiousness. He prefers simple, delicious food and gets annoyed when the music is too loud. Despite being part of a chain (now owned by Young's after previously being under Geronimo Inns), The Lion and Unicorn has a unique charm with its eclectic furniture, cozy fireplace, beautiful garden, and large selection of board games. The waitress informed us of the recent ownership change and assured us that the restaurant has maintained its welcoming atmosphere.
The amazing service at this pub pleasantly surprised tired travelers who arrived late in the afternoon after a red-eye flight. The food was delicious...
