Great brunch spot - Edit
We went there for brunch and were not disappointed. They offer three types of pancakes and four different brunch platters which are not your ordinary English breakfast but have a very interesting twist. Portion sizes are fine. The berry pancakes were lovely and not too sweet which was a pleasant surprise. The staff was attentive and service was fast. You could tell they are a chain and every process is very efficient. We got some tap water but the bottle was filthy and they were little things swimming in there. The desks are very close to each other and it was really loud in there so we left immediately after food.
Read morePros: Nice selection, Lovely interior
Cons: Super noisy and crowded, Tap water was somewhat filthy

Great spot - Edit
Heard of Mildred’s plenty of times before but never had the pleasure of stopping by until today. Very nice spot to grab some good food, and it was reassuring to see it doing good trade. Lots of staff (all of which were very friendly) to make sure everyone was looked after. Good looking menu with central London prices. But I had the spinach pea aloo tikki burger and was very satisfied. Fresh, crisp, spicy and juicy all at the same time, and the chips were unreal. Would recommend for any vegan in the area!

Really disappointing following previous visits - Edit
I’ve been to Mildred’s Soho twice before. Bear in mind that the title of a previous review I wrote was ‘Perfect in Every Way’, so I was enthusiastic to return.
Read moreWe’d booked in advance but were left waiting for a table in the narrow corridor between the bar and the dining room. The dining room was very crowded and cramped. Soon after we arrived the lights were turned down so it was pretty dark and not great for those with visual impairments. The music was booming and repetitive which made it difficult to have a conversation and left me with a headache at the end of the night.
We were strongly steered towards the sharing menu by two servers, I guess because it’s easier for the kitchen to keep churning out the same dishes all evening. I have been really inspired by previous meals I’ve eaten there and even bought one of the cook books, but the food we were served was surprisingly uninspiring.
The salsa hummus was nice, but the whipped ‘mascarpone’ didn’t seem to have any flavour to it at all, and one pitta per person wasn’t enough with two dips. The padron peppers were under-seasoned and boring, the patatas bravas were nicely seasoned but I got an uncooked potato which made me gag and avoid eating any more of that dish. There was one gyoza and one arancini per person, and the arancini was served with a very overly-sweet bbq sauce. The faux chicken skewers were good, the plant-based chicken had a good flavour and texture, but again just one skewer per person, measly portions and bulked out with cheap ingredients. The aubergine bhata lacked seasoning and texture. Finally, the desert was one bite of ‘fudge’ per person, just really stingy.
Looking back at the photo I took of the menu while writing this review, I also realised that we didn’t seem to get any of the rainbow pickles either.
I’m disappointed we fell into the trap of the tasting menu because it felt like we just got a load of cheap dishes and the quality was more akin to a TGI Friday’s rather than the great food I’ve had at Mildred’s in the past. At £38 per person, it felt like a bit of a con.
The main waitress we had was very attentive however we did have to ask three times for a bottle of water for the table.
Really disappointed because I’ve always recommended Mildred’s to friends but now I can’t anymore because the food and atmosphere were so bad.

I'm truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. It sounds like the evening fell far short of the high standards you've come to expect.
Read moreIt's disheartening to hear that the food, which you've previously found inspiring, didn't meet your expectations this time around.
The tasting menu experience should have been an opportunity to showcase the best we have to offer, but it seems like we have missed the mark.
Your feedback is valuable, and we are taking it seriously to make the necessary improvements.

Great food but not cheap - Edit
Lovely layout here, we were worried initially we wouldn’t be seated as the ground floor was very full but friendly staff escorted us up the stairs to many extra small rooms of seating.
Read moreVery quick service. It was maybe 5-10 mins from ordering to us eating.
The hot mango chik’n burger was great and the chips were very crispy.
The bokkeumbap was advised as being spicy but for us it was a bit warm (so be wary if you don’t like spice)
Pros: Quick service, Friendly staff, Great food
Cons: Expensive

The original Mildred’s - Edit
A rabbit warren layout adds to the cosy ambience of this first restaurant in the small chain. The menu/food matches other branches (all of which excellent), but the presentation of the food is a little superior to the others. Highly recommended, always busy.

The best Mildred’s in London - Edit
We have been frequenting the various Mildred’s restaurants over the past ten years in London and this has consistently proven to be the best. This time we had the Harissa Patatas Bravas for starters, the Tempeh Mushroom Yaki Udon and the Chicken Shish Tawook Kebab for mains, and Chocolate Ganache Layer Cake for dessert. The mains in particular were so delicious and well presented, a perfectly balanced blend of flavours. The red Italian wine went especially well with this culinary experience. The waitress Lorissa was very professional and anticipated needs in a well timed but unobtrusive manner. The ambiance was lovely and pricing was very good too.

Great for breakfast, lunch and dinner! - Edit
Ive been to both the Mildreds Covent Garden and the Mildreds Soho several times now and really enjoy the food! So far everything I tried was pretty good - although not extraordinarily great as in being a 10/10. So far the only thing that really made me go "oh wow" was the whipped feta and perhaps also the tortelloni. I'm still giving 5 stars though because obviously i keep coming back and wanting to try more. The menu includes soo many interesting dishes, it always tastes really fresh and the staff is very attentive. Its obviously quite pricey though.

Mildreds; next level food - Edit
I simply cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Absolutely on-point dishes, great choice of drink to accompany your food, hard working staff that navigate their way through the packed restaurant with style and grace whilst maintaining the contemporary ambiance this place brings. We purposely over-ordered as the choice was so good. We purposely ate the lot simply because we could. No regrets! I felt the pricing was modest for what you received in return. I was so impressed with our evening slot that I bought their recipe book as both a useful addition to my kitchen but also a great souvenir of such an enjoyable restaurant visit. Next time we are local to this branch we shall book for lunch and compare the experiences. Can’t wait!
Read morePros: Decent sized portions, Modest pricing, all things considered, Located just doors from John Crow pub
