About this restaurants :
I had to eat at the hotel due to no other nearby restaurants and I had not eaten since very early morning. I ordered burger and this was the worst I have eaten. The patty was dry and burnt. I call two waiters and they both claimed it was the style!! This was not seared. It was coated in a burnt layer that was not pleasant. I eat half but the chef was not interested in feedback and I was ignored. Unfortunately patrons are captive so it does not matter how the food is. Shame I did not take another photo of the burnt patty. I would have discarded at home BBQ. Staff were busy but pleasant.
Big thanks to Deepu, the bartender at Columbia. I could see how much love and efforts you put into what you do, it is truly amazing. Thank you for suggestions and service and everyone should try your none alcohol Pina Colada:) just the best one.
This is, allegedly, a rib eye. Medium.
I’m from Alberta, which is beef country. Cooking rib eye this well done is a capital offence. Did I send it back? No. Because why? It’s not like it was going to get rarer.
The wings here were great. Stay away from the steaks, as the kitchen can’t do them justice, and the steaks are not cheap.
I got to attend the Columbia restaurant’s pirate themed afternoon tea with a large group of friends yesterday, and it was fantastic.
Service is great with friendly staff and prompt service. Sandwich selection as part of the afternoon tea was a bit of an elevated standard, with the typical smoked salmon on cream cheese, tomato and cheese, cucumber this time paired with chicken, and a sausage and piccadilly relish. The scones were fresh and absolutely delicious, super buttery and creamy, very delightful.
Finally there was a very thorough cake selection presented, as well as smoothies and parfaits. The group unanimously decided the banana bread was the absolute winner, soft and rich and very well balanced. We had so many options to try and most of them were really fresh and scrumptious. I found a few cakes a little too on the sweet side, and the mocha I ordered was also way too sweet to drink for ky taste.
Overall, a brilliant afternoon tea with so many items, lovingly presented in little pirate treasure chests. I enjoyed it a lot and would definitely recommend it.

We were seated at the window with an amazing view over the Thames. The service was excellent and on my husband’s birthday, they surprised him with a delicious millionaire caramel shortcake. The food and prosecco was good.
