The Red Lion, Parliament Street - (Near Westminster, london)

The London Guru Really enjoyed my lunch at Farmer J near St James’s Park. Great service from start to finish, super friendly staff. The food is excellent: plenty of healthy, nutritious options that actually taste good and feel fresh. Portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable for central London quality. Great value overall. Only downside was the cleanliness in some areas. Tables were a bit cramped (typical for busy spots), but more noticeably the bathroom was dirty. Sink was overflowing/wet and needed attention. It felt a bit neglected compared to the otherwise solid experience. Still, the food and service make it worth a visit if you’re after wholesome, tasty meals in the area. I’ll definitely go back, just hope they tidy up the facilities a bit!

Georgie Delicious beautiful cakes. A must try in the area. Staff were friendly. Edit after eating there twice: The cakes are slightly too sweet so the sugar is overpowering over the flavour in some cases. That should be an easy fix if ever taken into account.

Rhonal We dropped in for a late lunch and were instantly welcomed by Emily’s lovely smile, such a genuine start. The menu was a pleasant surprise: loads of gluten-free options (the GF waffles were a standout!) and plenty for vegans too. My friend loved his vegan pancakes. Jess (I think that was her name) looked after us throughout with care and warmth. Great food, great people. Definitely one to bookmark.

BURÇAK ILIMAN Sticks’n’Sushi never disappoints. The sushi was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented and full of flavour. We also tried some of the grilled sticks and they were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The atmosphere feels elegant yet relaxed, making it perfect for both a special dinner and a stylish catch-up with friends. Service was attentive and professional throughout the evening. Definitely one of my favourite spots in London for high-quality sushi and a refined dining experience. Highly recommended.

Julia Came here for lunch and had a great time. Staff were amazing, so accommodating and helpful. Portions were really good as well- highly recommend!

Francine Harris Lovely calm atmosphere. Shamil was attentive, without being overly assertive. He was knowledgeable about the menu and smiled throughout the service. A pleasant experience. Thank you!
