Jane Green First time eating here, very impressed with the service and food. Had a lovely roast pork dinner and nice they offer a small portion. Meal lovely and hot. Good selection of puddings too. Would definitely recommend and hope to return very soon.

Richard Petts This is our favorite place to dine, the carvery on a Sunday is superb. Enjoyed dinner here Bank Holiday Monday, my wife and mother in law had the Sea Bass, I had the most amazing curry, vegan coconut vegetable curry, a huge portion with soft fluffy rice and a couple of poppadoms, fabulous. Lovely spacious seating outside under cover and very polite friendly staff, look forward to returning soon, thank you, Rich, Karen & Ann x

Maddy Seals Such a cute place with welcoming staff and excellent matcha. Right in front of the East Finchley Station makes it so convenient. Highly recommend. Angela is the very best and such a genuine, caring person. :)

Chris First visit to the Piltdown Man. The food was excellent. Well cooked and presented. The service was also brilliant; nothing was too much trouble. I also really liked the openness of the restaurant area and the pub in general. Plenty of room between tables. Probably great for family celebrations. I/we’ll be back.

Jim Choi Stopped for ev charging, the thai was fully booked, wasnt sure about the pub in front. But we wandered in. Friday and a bank Holiday busy with dj setting up. We went upstairs as it was a little quieter. Find a table order at the bar. What is possibly our 1st Shephard name pub. Order cheese straws and scotch egg as starters. The cheese straws were really tasty dipped in the tomato chutney. Scotch egg was accompanied with a mustard mayonnaise. The egg on the right side of firm with a little runniness. Delicious. The mains were fish and chips, chicken burger and a side of onion rings. The main bar was getting quote busy but the staff are very friendly. The fish and chips was a surprise the size of the haddock fillet. Ok down south so pea puree not mushy peas. A lovely charred lemon for the acidity. Chips were skin on fries as its not a chippy. A homemade tartar sauce. The chicken fillet was a huge piece with korean gochujang sauce. Impressive burger and big portion of fries. Onion rings proper ones homemade. The quality of the food was really good I even posted the fish and chips on the fish and chips Facebook page it deserved to be on there. I didnt even finish the chips such a good price £17.95. As it was late no one queuing for the chargers we finish soon after. Sauntered over noting it would be a pub we use for meals no hesitation. And great staff!
