Papillon - (Near , london)

5 /5 Gina Lloyd: We got married here on 4/10/25 and it was the best day of our lives. I cannot fault the service we received at any point start to finish. The day ran perfectly. Tommy was an absolute star on the day making sure everything ran smoothly and interacting with guests who all loved him, he was so professional. Sam was so kind in the run up to the wedding getting everything ready, he really did think of everything. The bar staff and waiters were joyous, especially Leo. Thank you Papillon for hosting the best day of our lives , you will always have a special plac in our hearts.

5 /5 Michael OConnor: We visited the Papillon to see a couple of our favourite bands but also had dinner before the gig. The service & food in the restaurant was fabulous. The brie bites where delicious & the gammon with duck egg was fantastic. Reasonably priced for the quality of the food with attentive service. The second half of the evening turned into one of the best gigs we have been to. Cracking atmosphere with great acoustics with it being a former church. Looking forward to going back.

2 /5 Rosanne Faleiro: Booked in to go on valentines night 2026 We were promptly attended to and sat in the upstairs gallery - unfortunately it was not a good experience though staff were great as a part of downstairs was booked for a 30th birthday celebration and the noise ruined the vibe- we physically could not wait to leave. For starters, we ordered the baked Camembert to share from the valentines special menu - about half of it wasn’t even melted, it was hard and some of the crispy bread had been in the deep fryer, greasy and salty. For main course I got the steamed mussels, for which the sauce was the consistency of water. They placed the food and left. I wasn’t even given a bowl for waste shells. Had to try and get the attention of 3 servers to ask for one. My partner got the slow cooked beef ragu with gnocchi and it was horrible. Barely ate half of it. The service and servers were lovely but the food was horrible, unsure if we just picked bad dishes, but would expect if a dish was on the menu, all would be the same quality.

5 /5 Tierra Abeyta: This is such a cool venue, and the food was so good! My partner and I came here for our anniversary and it was such a nice evening. Our server Jayser was very kind and attentive (and even brought us a dessert for our anniversary). 5/5!

5 /5 Ben Tarling: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lucy and I popped into Papillon before heading to a show at the theatre across the road, and we’re so glad we did! From the start we were welcomed with smiley, friendly staff which instantly set the tone. The venue itself is stunning – a beautifully renovated church with a warm, inviting ambiance. For food, I had the vegan burger and Lucy went for the rosemary chicken – both absolutely amazing. For dessert, I couldn’t resist my favourite apple crumble with ice cream (perfect!), while Lucy had the special Biscoff option, which was soft, indulgent and absolutely delicious. All in all, a brilliant experience. Perfect for dinner before a show at the Mayflower. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Southampton, and we’ll definitely be back!
