Mayhill's Of Cockfosters - London

This is a beautiful restaurant with exceptional service.

It was my son 18 birthday dinner. we arrived and sat up in the VIP area alone. there was a birthday downstairs. we sat alone in the upper floor without ambiente, no visual stimulation of restaurants and bad care. I had to find someone waiting for the bill after a long time. it was very lonely and no atmosphere alone all night. I was disappointed as a special occasion. we could have been sitting up with a picture of the restaurant outside the VIP area. I am very in two heads to recommend me or come back. I had recommended this restaurant by a friend.

We were sat upstairs, on a table for 2. My friend and I were disturbed on several occasions throughout the evening, by staff moving tables and chairs around for larger tables seemed a little unorganised if I’m honest. I was even asked to get up out of my seat to allow the staff to pass with a table, which I found rude frustrating… and had to ask if I could sit back down now that they had finished! Staff shouted around us about tables and accepting bookings “when they didn’t have the space to accommodate people”.. quite unprofessional. The upstairs area definitely wasn’t big enough for the amount of customers they had agreed again lead to disruption throughout our meal. Staff also stood over us right by us throughout the night, which again was off putting. All of the above ruined our ‘experience’ at MayHills and would probably stop me from returning to the restaurant. I’ve heard such good things but it didn’t live up to what I was expecting. And as for the food, it was nice but nothing extraordinary, same goes for the cocktails.

Got there for a friends birthday didn’t do anything special like other restaurants normally do. Only gave us an over an hour for a table as needed table for someone else. Waiter Kept on watching us eat food made us feel like we had to hurry up kept on standing behind me to see if I was finished with my plate made us very uncomfortable. Food was lovely but for a Friday when music was suppose to on at 7 it didn’t happen until around 8:30 very disappointing

Great food , ambiance and cocktails as always. Love it!
