the morrissey house

nice warm pub with great food. menu changes often and the only spot in london i can get grilled wings.

poor service, good food. came here for brunch on saturday around 12:30pm with a friend and it was some of the worst service i've ever received in a restaurant. i arrived first and was only given one menu, but when i asked for a second, the waitress disappeared and didn't return for a solid 15 minutes, by which point my friend and i had just shared the one menu. same goes for drinks; we ordered glasses of water which took over 10 minutes to come. from what i could tell, it was only myself and my friend plus another couple dining so i'm not sure what the holdup was. i could see the two waitresses chatting behind the counter the entire time which was frustrating when we had to wait so long for everything. the waitress didn't even come back to check on us after we got out food which was frustrating because my friend wanted some ketchup.

luckily the food was good or else it would have been a complete waste of time. i had the morrissey eggs benedict and they were good. the hollandaise sauce was very tart, which was different but still good. the homefries were tasty and my dish came with a ton. my friend got the skillet with chorizo sausage and hers were literally amazing so i'd probably go for that one if i were to ever go back.

cheap tip?. hi, i was at the morrissey house a while ago and i was drinking a pint of beer, which costs $4.75 and i left a small tip, i guess too small a tip for the server, because when she picked up my measly .75 cents, she said " i'll give this to someone who needs it ".
i haven't been back since.

a very elegant experience. with class and style with room for a home-like vibe, this place provided me a safe setting to try a variety of unique beers and then finding my brain on the floor. besides great beer, the food is comforting and yummy. great experience, if i remember correctly. staff was awesome too.

the food was excellent at the morrissey house and definitely would come back again! our waitress was wonderful and the food had wonderful flavour! pretty big portions. would recommend making a reservation since this places gets packed! and we came on a tuesday!

very nice. this was a stop in on a recent trip to london and it ended up being a very nice surprise. the beer list is not extensive but the selection consisted of good beers. there is care taken in the food preparation and presentation. the atmosphere is funky and a patio for relaxing. a very nice surprise in london.

just what i wanted. after reading so many mixed reviews on here i thought it would be worth sharing my experience. all i wanted was a juicy cheeseburger with fries. i have been craving it all day so when my boyfriend got home from work we walked over to morrissey house and without really looking at the menu i told our server i just wanted a classic burger with cheese, tomato, lettuce and onion and fries on the side. was i ever in for a treat! the burger was cooked to perfection with a hint of pink in the middle, i had a great slab of tomato and plenty of melty (not processed) cheese. the fries were crispy and delicious. all and all i was very impressed. the service wasn't fantastic but for a girl simply craving a burger on a friday night i was extremely pleased with my impression of morrissey house and will likely be returning to try a few other mouth-watering menu items.

one of my all time top 3 places to eat in london! always have great service and the food is always delicious. my partner and i finished the sausage board, a glass of red sangria and a cold brew. highly recommend!!

swmbo joined me for a business trip to london on. we went to the morrisey house for dinner with a couple of my colleagues, around the corner from our hotel. the restaurant was full when we got there after 6:30, and we had to wait a few minutes for a table for four.

swbmo chose the jambalaya from the entrees section of the menu ($16.25). shrimp, chorizo sausage, and sautéed chicken were mixed in with a spicy rice and tomato sauce blend. although you can request that they slice it up, swbmo asked for mild, which was spicy enough. she said it was okay, but that she likes her own recipe better.

i picked the hot italian eggplant sandwich from the lighter dinner fare section ($12.25). the eggplant was thinly sliced, lightly breaded and properly fried until soft all the way through. it was served on a focaccia bun with tomato sauce, spinach, sautéed mushrooms, smoked cheddar, mozzarella, and roasted red peppers. a bit messy, but good.

service was friendly and polite.

we went to this restaurant at the recommendation of our hotel concierge. lamb vindaloo was fantastic. extensive list of local craft beers on tap. large variety of wines by the glass. great value and very good service. we went back again for dinner two nights later and again had a great experience.

we went for a late breakfast-early lunch. it was around 11am and wasn’t too busy. the service was very good. friendly server! i had the canadian skillet - very filling! i didn’t need to eat again all day😀

we only popped in to get out of rain . we’re planning on staying for a drink but the food coming out smelled amazing and looked delicious so we stayed for dinner . we started with the two way shrimp - awesome . we had the white bean coconut curry and the cottage pie. both were great , the cottage pie was sooo good. piping hot ! will definitely stop in if in the area again .

first sign was a menu that was too long. staff was friendly but food a let down. i still need a good dining place in london. steak ordered at the table was quite ok. pulled pork ordered at table fine enough but not outstanding. mussels and fries unfortunate - mussels overcooked and broth was very boring. didn't seem fresh at all although the fries were really great. risotto balls nice but lacked flavour. fries super tasty and crispy but the mayo that i had to ask for turned out to be sour cream - again staff very nice and were happy to accommodate chairs not comfy. this is a pub and it should promote itself as such - great place for beer and nachos etc. wings were ok but again not great. nothing stood out which was quite sad as nice spot and nice people.

as good as it gets in my opinion, i loved my visit to the morrissey house at the end of january. looking at it from the outside you might prejudge it as a bit of run down converted house, but i implore you to take the chance, walk up those steps and enter their doors.

it's very cute inside as you can definitely tell this was a home at one point as the entire restaurant/bar is divided into different rooms. which on initial entry might throw you for a loop, but once you're seated it's actually kind of cozy. the bar is contained to one room for those bar flies who want to sit on stools, watch the game and shoot the breeze, while the dining rooms are in their own space, which when seated in them feel a lot like you're eating in someones dining room.

likely my fave place in london. not only does it have a causual, community pub kind of feel. their craft beer choice is almost unmatched and the food is amazing!

pub nights on mondays, wine wednesdays and even weekend brunch - the hits just keep coming. cannot suggest enough!
