Bouchon Racine London Reviews
Great pub, especially the immense bar food
Seven of us managed to grab the large round table at the back and enjoyed beer, cocktails, wine plus the best pub bar food in London. The bar can get busy but its well resourced and ordering isn't a chore. Always a pleasure to spend a few hours at The Three Compasses
Skip the downstairs bar
Went to the pub downstairs for a pre-dinner drink first. Sat at a sticky ledge counter beside which was a bowl of ice. Took a cube to wet surface of ledge to ease stickiness. World War Three broke out and we were told by the young bar boy to DO NOT DO THAT AGAIN as he whisked the bowl away with a flourish. Of course, we suddenly understood, it's (quite rightly) a hygiene issue as the ice was being used for drinks (we assumed it was for bottles of beer or wine). Before we could say anything, another barman came over, wagged his finger and repeated sternly DO NOT DO THAT AGAIN as if we were four-year-olds. We had asked for the ledge to be wiped but it wasn't happening as the young lad (Sidney he said his name was), who is obviously not enjoying his Summer employment, didn't fancy cleaning it for us. He was incandescent when we asked a second time. A group meeting was held between the staff behind the bar with glances in our direction. We DID NOT order a second drink ( I can only imagine the spittle-infused pints). Dinner upstairs was very pleasant but a bad taste had been left from the experience downstairs. It would be unfair to judge it with such an unfortunate start to the evening. Domage.
How can you pass up a 300-year-old pub?
The Three Compasses pub at 66 Cowcross Street in London is said to be 300 years old and nobody disputes the math. It sticks to its roots as a proper East End boozer. No pretension, just amazing local craft beer, the best burgers, friendly staff, sports on the telly, a lovely beer garden and the best pub quiz in East London. It's a place where strangers talk to each other about sports, family and politics. And when you mention that you're from the United States, well...that's a whole different subject. Open from noon to 11 on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and noon to midnight on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the Three Compasses brings fresh ingredients in from all over the city and prepares freshly made British favorites such as fish and chips, bangers and mash, beer battered haddock fillet and beef tartare and mackeral. They bring in fish from Newlyn in Cornwall, meat from Smithfield's in London, ice cream from Lewis of London and brioche buns that are cooked daily by Flourish Craft Bakery. It all comes together around the bar as the clock approaches midnight. We had calamari and prawns, bread and olives, smoked salmon, fish and chips, a Hickory burger and sticky toffee pudding with butterscotch and vanilla ice cream. And the beat goes on.
Excellent food choice
Fabulous food, had the oysters, escargot, veal and Rabbit. Oh and a creme brulee to finish. Service was excellent, staff really friendly. Would recommend.
Light lunch
Visited here after wedding ring shopping, we didn’t book (Saturday) but luckily it wasn’t that busy. The pub itself is modern and clean, it had a great variety for lunch. Me and my partner just had a few nibbles which was ideal. Great place!
Cash Refusal, strange?
This is a lovely pub with nice decor & super staff. 6 of us met up for a meal , unfortunately we had to leave after 1 drink as they refused to accept cash, this is totally unacceptable to all of us , so we can’t report on the food but it looks fine as locals we will not be going back.
Great food and service!
Great lunchtime meal served by lovely staff particularly Sarah and Emilio. The roasts were very nice and the company was excellent. Best place to come on a Sunday
Terrific London Pub
First visit here for a long time, with a former colleague. First thumbs up, Harvey’s. Kept remarkably well for a London pub. Food was also great - two small plates rather than one large one, beef tartare and mackerel. First rate.
NEW Bouchon Racine french restaurant upstairs is excellent.
Forget the Thai restaurant on the first floor and tune in to the excellent French restaurant above. Lovely air dried ham, super Brill and Halibut, very tasty desserts and good wines by the glass. Excellent service. Reasonable value. Try not to sit near the entrance as a cold wind can blow up the stairs from the street entrance. A great addition to the Farringdon scene.
Very helpful bar staff and amazing food
Just when you thought this was an ordinary boozer to watch the football what a surprise.!!! A very helpful young chap behind the bar made you feel v welcome in a manically busy pub, no frowns here, and with an excellent choice of ales,ciders and lagers that was good enough until the food turned up. Wow the mackerel on toast was amazing as was the ham. Really great pub!

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Bouchon Racine London at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Bouchon Racine London page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* BraveCloth47, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* BraveCloth47 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to BraveCloth47 for any questions Peter may have as BraveCloth47 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* BraveCloth47 now uses their connections at Bouchon Racine London to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If BraveCloth47 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, BraveCloth47 receives the $200 reward which is credited to BraveCloth47's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Bouchon Racine London!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
