New Mandarin @Pub - (Near , london)

Adam Leach We have been wanting to visit the pub for a long time but then it shut down. With it re-opening with the new owners, we took the opportunity to visit. We went on a Saturday lunch time and it was moderately busy with people both inside and outside. The inside has a traditional pub feel and vibe. The outside has a larger beer garden and playground for any children. There is a large lawn area for kids to run around or for people to sit if the weather is nice. We had mains and deserts and all of the food was fantastic. The portion sizes were generous and everything we had was tasty. The price was very reasonable for the area. The menu had around 6-7 starters, mains and deserts which meant it was easy to choose something with all the dishes being cooked fresh. I hate pubs that have huge menus. Service was good but it could be improved. Most of the staff were very young and they did try hard. It was just the little things that needed brushing up e.g. bringing spoons with hot drinks etc. so nothing major. Overall we were all very impressed and we will be back again. I would really like to try their Sunday roast. To everyone at Jekyll and Hyde, well done, you have a cracking pub.

Dom Ahern Loved this place. Every single member of staff was just amazing, super attentive, charming and knew their stuff. We went in the evening and the atmosphere was perfect, kitchen upstairs and a mixture of big and small tables with candles, fun but relaxed and not too hectic. Felt really well looked after which made the evening. The wine choices and food were superb and waiters helped us choose. Possibly on the slightly pricey side, but because everything was perfect it still seemed great value. Def recommend for those happy to spend a bit of money, or want to feel spoilt in relaxed but buzzy setting. My new favourite place.

Deni Teo We live round the corner and moved in just after eastern queen closed due to the pandemic. We’d walk past it almost every day really hoping it would reopen soon because it looked like it would be great. 5 years later happy to say it was more than worth the wait! Crispy pork belly is excellent, can’t wait to try more.

Scott McIntosh Ullah I’ve ordered from this restaurant twice now in the past couple of weeks - chicken Biryani and chicken tikka naan wraps. Both orders impressed me. The biryani was absolutely packed with flavour and the meat was cooked perfectly. No grease, no dry chicken, no stingy portions, just good quality, delicious food. I also highly recommend the chicken tikka naan rolls. The chicken chunks were huge and extremely tender. Just how they should be. The meat was marinated and seasoned to give bags of flavour and the drizzle of mint sauce accompanied it perfectly. When you are able to offer a decent sized menu with consistently great quality food, polite service, a spot on price point and an excellent delivery service, you know you are doing something right - and they are definitely doing something right in this place. If they keep up the quality of their food, along with the excellent service, they’ll go a long way.

Strategy Electrical Terrible service staff handing out the wrong dish to the wrong table all night long Food also terrible value for money £25 for what looks like 1/2 a stake a foot long hot dog isn’t even a foot long…

Faheem Ahmad I make very good Indian tea myself, so it’s not easy to meet my standards. To be honest, after eleven years in London, none of the Asian restaurants or shops impressed me with their chai. But Chaiiwala is the only place where I truly enjoyed authentic Indian tea. Love it!
