I recently dined at Bodean's Tower Hill and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! All the staff (esp Vicktor) were incredibly attentive and friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Their service was prompt and professional, ensuring that our dining experience was seamless and enjoyable. The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish prepared to perfection. The flavours were well-balanced, and the presentation was impressive. Whether you're a fan of classic BBQ dishes or looking for something more adventurous, their menu has something for everyone. One of the highlights of the evening was their impressive selection of bourbon whiskey. The variety was extensive, featuring both well-known brands and unique, hard-to-find bottles. The staff were knowledgeable and offered great recommendations, enhancing our overall experience. Overall, Bodean's Tower Hill is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy great food, excellent service, and a fantastic bourbon whiskey selection. I can't wait to return!

Coco was our waitress and she was very friendly and helpful! As always the food is juicy and delicious, I’ve even come in just for a milkshake and key lime pie which is my favourite! Authentic country which definitely adds to the Southern atmosphere.

Nice restaurant specialized on beef food. The very patient waiter Raul helped us with our choices and explained a bit the history and the difderences between several beer brands. The food was good and the crispy fries were so good..

Very good ambience with great food/drinks. They had my favourite beer - Heineken which is rare in London! Meat was really good!

Great meal in Bodeans Friday lunchtime. We know it gets busy so got there for opening. We were five minutes early but they let us in which was really nice of them. My colleague and I had the platter for two to share at 20 which had chicken thighs, ribs, burnt ends, pulled pork, fries and short rib. It was delicious. Couldn’t fault the food at all. Very tasty and plenty of sauces on hand. I liked the burnt ends the most. They served us promptly so managed to get out and back in an hour which is fantastic for a sit down meal in the city. Pound for pound you can get better portions of similar food elsewhere in London but this area is expensive so is fair. Have been before and will go again.

Two different reviews... First visit 4 May I waited 40 mins without acknowledgement from female who saw me to a window seat. Upstairs wasn't busy and I was in full view of the bar. William then approached and was met with my honest answer of "I was about to leave". I was checking reviews which highlighted this issue and considering where else to go. Am glad I stayed as the food was delicious and I returned a second time 5 May and thanks to Lake the experience was night and day. Proactively chasing up my order, capturing a late change but also hospitable, chatty and attentive. I would write two polar opposite reviews! I'd return again but it would depend on who is working.

So the good first - really enjoyed my dinner (pulled pork and burnt ends combo) and a lovely root beer. Everyone else enjoyed their food too. However, the service was awful, our server messed up the order (so much so that the manager gave us a massive discount). Our server was so quiet, had to asker her to repeat herself several times. Which is probably what led to the order being messed up. Have been here several times, and maybe it was her first day, but for such a busy restaurant, we.exoecred much better service.

I really enjoyed it here. The food was great and the service was exceptional. The place is much bigger than it looks, with loads of seating downstairs.
