The Bird in Hand - (Near , london)

Will West If you love Chinese food and Thai food, this is the place for you! We have been coming here for years and every time the food has been great. We recommend booking because it can get full up quick. It’s a very unique restaurant, the owner is so friendly, the complementary crackers and caramelised marshmallow with ice cream was a nice touch.

James Flynn Great food, I always get a combo meal, good size portion. I would definitely recommend that people try. Bbq chicken is really really nice, curry goat is really really nice, falls off the bone, comes with potatoes and carrots and three pieces of plantain. Reasonable price. Tastes really good. Must try.

Scruffy O Was really looking forward to this and it didn’t disappoint. I went on Saturday 2 Jan 2026 lunchtime and it was quite busy generally in the food hall, but after ordering at the counter, the food was ready in a timely manner. I ordered the fried chicken banana leaf meal (husband had the chicken curry banana leaf meal) and a side of mutton rolls. It was all beautifully presented and the taste lived up to how it looked. I thought it to be really good value for money, the portions are generous without losing any quality of taste. Everything tasted fresh and well seasoned. The mutton rolls were a generous size, crispy, spicy and delicious. The fried chicken was very tasty and not too greasy or oily. All the acompaniments - veggies, potatoes, sauces, rice, popadom, fried chilies - were great. My husband and I were staying at the Marriott hotel opposite, so location wise was perfect. Also close to the Elizabeth line for anyone coming that way. I’d already gotten fed up of the abundance of restaurants in the area which charge a lot of money and deliver a subpar experience (average food, ridiculous upcharges, etc). Gopal’s corner is one I’m definitely going to return to when we stay at the Marriott again, and I can imagine I will eat there multiple times during our stay. Thanks to Mr Gopal and team for satisfying my spicy Asian food fix!

Jordan Emmanuel Tampai Overall amazing experience. Went here with my parents for Christmas and had lunch. Food was delicious, the decor was in theme and the service was top notch. Props to best waitress ever!

giftswithuslondon We ordered the CHICKEN KATSU CRUNCH, CRISPY EBI URAMAKI, chicken katsu curry and the chicken katsu Sando. CRISPY EBI URAMAKI Was definitely the highlight, it’s a must try! The food was really quick, it all came out within 20mins. The customer service was great! The food was delicious, would come back

Isabella Gill Have been quite a few times to this pub and the fact it has a whole separate vegan menu is very special!! It is also very thoughtful — have had the vegan pizza, vegan nduja and vegan roast. 2 things to note — the vegan roast and vegetarian roast are both £19.50 although the vegan roast does not come with a yorkshire pudding which is disappointing — price should be changed to reflect this? also if you come on a Sunday book well in advance
