Was Anonym at Nineteen a mag?
My husband and I stumbled upon this charming bar on Valentine's Day. It was absolutely lovely - cozy and elegant! We were even able to pick some blues songs to set the mood for the evening. The staff was so warm, accommodating, and had smiles for days. For starters, we indulged in some special oysters and breaded prawns that were simply divine.

What Anonym dislikes about Nineteen:
My mother and I did not have a good experience at this restaurant. We felt like we were intruding on someone else's private event. The service was friendly but slow, it only seemed to come when the staff took a break from socializing at the bar. The food was average and did not live up to the high standards of other reviews. The atmosphere was unpleasant due to the loud conversations, competing with sports on an iPad... View all feedback.

The resturant looks lovely from the outside and it often has special offers mid week to draw in customers. We took the opportunty to try such a deal which was a choice of burger and a dessert which seems nice and easy before we caught a movie. All I can say it was extremely disorganise, with us waiting for drinks, continually reminding the staff re drinks then the deserts and a serious lack of speed. Actually from ordering it took nearly 1.5 hours and all I say is thank goodness for the adverts at the cinema or we would of miised the start of the movie.Food was good just need to get that service sorted
Staying in London for the weekend, and found this place for lunch.The food was fantastic the service second to none. I would go back here any time to eat.It was very clean. Amazing.
My husband and I visited Nineteen at the weekend having recently moved into the area. We were greeted by the barman who creates an impressive cocktail to your own specification. All of the staff were really friendly and readily happy to help. We ate bar snacks which were reasonably priced and tasted yummy. We will definitely visit this place again. Really impressed considering the dearth decent of places in Streatham.
Whilst Nineteen is actually quite a nice venue, the food there isn't the best. We had breakfast there on Sunday (which wasn't our first visit): my boyfriend had French toast; I had eggs benedict. My partner said that the French toast was a little soggy, and not as good as can be found at Purple (next door) or down the road at Perfect Blend. What confused me, though, was that my eggs benedict comprised not eggs and bacon, as is normal, or even eggs and ham, as I have also seen, but eggs on thick chunks of cold, pre-cooked pork (the type one would have for Sunday lunch). Also the eggs were really watery and the hollandaise sauce not great. Given that we had waited 20 minutes for our food to even arrive, I was pretty disappointed. I don't remember the food being this bad the first time we went, so maybe it was a blip, but I don't think I'd chance it again.
My aim was to found somehwere to sit and work, i cam in and was greeted by friendly owner, order a very nice coffee, he also offered some water, fast wifi, nice lights. I order an amazing chicken baguette which was tasty, will definitely be coming again and inviting freinds, perfect place to catch up with friends. Also has a cool bar! A definite must go in streatham! Emmanuel

We were thrilled with our experience and are already looking forward to returning for Father's Day, if all goes well.
Found this Mexican restaurant on Streatham high street right next door to the Horse and Groom pub, we were made very welcome by one of the staff members Mellisa...Shane was very attentive and on hand to advise on the different dishes..... my son had a...massive rack of ribs, whilst my wife and I had tappas dishes.... the service was amazing and the food really was red hot , tasty a plentiful, before we paid our bill, Mellisa brought us complementary shots of tequila along with the salt and lime..... it was a lovely atmosphere, great staff and good food at reasonable prices, I would recommend El Chico’s very highly and will certainly return soon.... thank you!
Lovely little bar in Streatham. very good range of reds and of course the cocktails. Been there for dinner last Friday and I really recommend it; nice spot, service and amazing food (especially the vegan mac and cheese).
My mother and I did not have a good experience at this restaurant. We felt like we were intruding on someone else's private event. The service was friendly but slow, it only seemed to come when the staff took a break from socializing at the bar. The food was average and did not live up to the high standards of other reviews. The atmosphere was unpleasant due to the loud conversations, competing with sports on an iPad, music, and a poorly tuned TV showing Adele's Grammy performance. We had high hopes for this place but unfortunately, we were disappointed. Despite its legacy in Streatham, we will not be returning.
Live really close by and love going here. Nice food always served with side of olives, amazing cocktails, lovely garden area and very chilled approach all round. The owner is always knocking about, having a laugh at the bar
