Reviews in North London

Fantastic family-run restaurant on High Street Whetstone ! I highly recommend Matthews Kitchen , the food is on another level. The fish is incredibly fresh, the happy hours cocktails was delicious and the staff were so helpful and caring, making sure we enjoyed every moment. We had cocktails (fantastic!) and a lovely bottle of Albariño, which was a very good choice. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Thank you, Matthews Kitchen! We will definitely be coming again and recommending you to others.

Fabulous Sunday afternoon watching the NLD in a warm, cosy pub with £10 smash burgers.

Went to Sunday lunch with my family, all adults. Service was excellent, food superb and atmosphere & furnishing as you would expect. We really enjoyed the occasion.

Specially enjoyed the haddock and pea croquettes special, the second time I've had it. Dover sole excellent and quite large, as always. Thanks to Angela for putting the effort into the Halloween decorations, it was fun to spot them here and there. The most expensive Chardonnay, a plain Bourgogne Blanc but from highly respected négociant Maison Roche de Bellene, is indeed costly, but worth it for a treat.

Delicious, fresh, well prepared food. Interesting items on menu well presented and not short on flavour. Very efficient and friendly staff. Lovely setting, clean & professional. Decent cocktails too!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthews Kitchen has an amazing atmosphere — cozy, warm, and inviting. The food is absolutely delicious, and the fish is always fresh. You can really feel the family touch in the service, everyone is welcoming and friendly. Definitely recommended to everyone!

We are not general pub - goers, however, after spending the evening and eating at the Queens Head last Saturday 25th October 2025, I must share what an excellent meal we both had. The lamb shank had a rich gravy and creamy mashed potato that was delicious. My husband had the chicken burger which was really well made with great chips. On a previous occasion, we have enjoyed the home-fired pizzas. Combined with a warm, cosy atmosphere and absolutely wonderful, helpful staff behind the bar, we are lucky to have discovered such a great place. So happy that it is local for us too. Thankyou all at the Queens Head:)

Lovely atmosphere warm welcome from lovely staff

Mathews Kitchen is an absolute gem for seafood lovers. The service is warm and welcoming — service with a smile. The seafood is wonderfully fresh, and every dish feels carefully prepared. The ceviche is a standout favourite, bursting with flavour, and the tuna special was fantastic. A lovely family-run restaurant that’s well worth a visit!

Great evening. All my friends loved their food. Service very friendly

Fantastic seafood restaurant on High Street in Whetstone I’ve been a few times with family and friends and every visit has been memorable. The seafood is always fresh, the portions are generous, and the cocktails are amazing. My steak with prawns just melted in my mouth, and I couldn’t resist finishing with their homemade apple tart and vanilla ice cream so delicious! Big thank you to the whole team. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic food and dining area. Would recommend to everyone!
