The Captain Cook — Restaurant in London

Amazing stay! We stayed here for a week. It was out first time in London, and we enjoyed it so much!|The location is very convenient and close to the city center, you can reach anything in about 30 minutes with the means of transport (sooooo efficient, clean and top level).|The owner, Susie, is a very nice Spanish woman who bought the hotel/pub recently and she’s doing a great job renovating it all! |Silvia is one of the waiters in the hotel and does the checkins. She’s an Italian girl from Brescia and speaks great English: very funny and makes you at your ease.||The rooms are being renovated and in a couple weeks everything’s gonna be more beautiful than now (we had the chance to have a sneak peek of the new rooms).|Underneath the rooms, there’s the pub which serves primarily tapas and English food, but you can order other amazing dishes too! |They welcomed us and helped with our stay.||Overall a great vacation, we surely are gonna come back to the Captain Cook in the future to see the new look and to enjoy London, which is very big and can’t be seen in just a few days.||Tip: The location doesn’t have breakfasts, as it is mainly a pub and opens at 12PM, but you can get to a very close restaurant which does amazing breakfasts and lunches, it is about 5 minutes walking from the hotel. It is called Mil Kitchen. If you mention you’re from the Captain Cook, they give you a 10% discount, and the same applies for the food served in the pub.||Great...

My husband and I both stayed in the Inn and dined in the restaurant multiple times (at least 4). The staff were unfailingly kind, attentive, polite and friendly. We made a mistake on our booking (shorted ourselves by 1 night) and they handled our room switch for the final night.

Room was spacious, comfortable and affordable. We had an ensuite on the top floor (rm 6). Street noise was only an issue the first few nights because of the unseasonable heat in London. At night the road the front of the building faces is pretty quiet except for the few motorbikes racing down the street in the wee hours. Both the pub at the Captain Cook and the one across the road close early (by American standards at least) so by 11:30 most street conversation is gone.

Food at the restaurant was amazing! Delicious, well presented and well priced for the portions. We especially recommend the tasting plate - it can easily feed two hungry travelers who have been on their feet all day.

It might seem like a bit of a hike from the underground station - but the neighborhood is one of the more expensive, very well lit residential areas in London. We loved the 10 min stroll through Fulham, feeling like we were a local couple on...

Passing through and found this place. Superrrrb. One of our party had goats cheese salad which was excellent, but the rest of us had the tapas with NO regrets. The chorizo was both excellent AND the least of the dishes. The white anchovies in vinegar were the star dish - you have to try them. Great olives, pan Catalan, King prawns, Patatas Bravas, Squid, meatballs and Iberico Ham. The wine wasn’t cheap (we had the cheapest at £24) and it was good. We had water for the table gratis. All of which brings us to dessert - we didn’t expect much seeing the rather generic sounding dishes and little relation to the tapas / Spanish theme. …BUT they were (surprised us!) also excellent (the sticky toffee and cheesecake). A ‘discretionary’ service charge added £18, bringing it all (with an extra Gin, two brandies and a Coke) to £163 for the four of us. A little high end, but we loved it. Feedback, because we really like this place : not sure the name is right - we expected a typical pub! Although if it is working, leave it alone… Oh and our waitress (Sylvia) was lovely...
