The Glade at Sketch, which is one of my regular haunts, recently went under a spellbinding overhaul, and closely resembles that of a fairy grotto. Enchanted forest green carpet, tree and foliage decor adorning the walls and red laser 'firefly' light display fully immersing you into the mystical experience.
Ever eccentric, artistic and altogether 'must be seen at' venue, Sketch's small secret garden den at the side of the well known flamboyant, pink, Gallery restaurant, is a wonderfully, quirky stop off point for some carefully crafted cocktails.
Greeted by fun and equally fantastical staff members, always willing to help and find you a seat in the bijou cocktail lounge, you are quickly made to feel welcomed and at ease, and although I am a regular, everyone I have seen enter The Glade is treated with the same high standard of attention.
The cocktail menu isn't vast, but there are still enough tasty drinks to choose from, and if they don't tickle your fancy, the bar staff are always willing to mix your favourites. Notably the Chocolate Martini is just as enchanting as the venue itself, dangerously so to the point you will want to keep re-ordering them, and hocus pocus, you are slightly more tipsy than you intended. *hic*
The Glade is a perfect cocktail lounge for instagramer's wanting to get that perfect snap, couples wanting to cuddle up on the sofas, or friends wanting a good catch up in the speak easy section of Sketch.
A food menu is available from 7am - 6pm which I am yet to sample. Cocktails run from 6pm - 2am. The venue is always busy, but it is certainly worth a walk in visit to experience the other-worldly bar.
Sketch is one of London's most enticing places and Glade is the most enchanting. Decorated like a mystical forest, with laser 'fairies' skirting around the walls, it offers diners a quiet and ethereal tone. The afternoon tea is excellent with great choice and free refills. I had the lemon meringue dessert which was spot on but the accompanying hot chocolate, was not. Service was friendly and efficient.
Located in the middle of regent st. Beautiful place for having drinks before/after dinner. Calming music and classic decoration take away the stress of the day.
Dining at The Glade is a magical experience. The room is so atmospherically decorated that it really does feel like your in another quirky world.
The wall to ceiling decor, funky furnishings and beautiful table settings make this a desirable afternoon tea location, and our meal here was divine.
I would definitely recommend a visit to Sketch and especially to the Glade!
Very elegant and classic style decoration in these Restaurant, the food is very elaborate and the look of the plates is just amusing, the service is good. The total bill at the end was maybe a little to much anyway!!
Utterly mesmerising, sketch is both fresh and inspiring. There is literally something around every corner to grab your attention. The glade, where we sat for tea and cake, was charming. There was a gorgeous selection of sandwiches, light meals and a vast range of drinks both alcoholic and non. But I was drawn to the macaroons … and of the four flavours on offer (Lemon and Basil, Rhubarb and Strawberry, Apricot and Almond, Chocolate and Caramel) the chocolate was positively my favourite. The 'Jasmine Pearls' herbal tea was 'velvety, full and enticing' just as the description offered and served with precision. An enormous pleasure and I'll be back.
We had a bit of a kerfuffle at first, but eventually we got sorted and the lunch we had was really wonderful. The food was really tasty and the different rooms were awesome, not to mention the egg pod toilets! We ended up in The Glade, which is an enchanted forest themed restaurant.
Best place to enjoy wine and desserts with friends. Very lively and lovely ambience. They play good music as well! The staff is very polite and the desserts are yum!
I visited this place with my children while we were in this part of town. The ambiance is cozy and warm here and the place is very well-decorated. The service is also impeccable and the staff was extremely friendly, hospitable and accommodating. The food here is average with a few hits and misses. I would definitely recommend it for the excellent service, but not so much for the food.
We decide to have lunch at this place after consulting reviews online and we were very glad that the experience turned to be pretty amazing after all!
The interiors are pretty impressive and sophisticated. The atmosphere too is a little mix of high style and funky appeals.A great features are the bathroom which very intriguing and cool in design.You have to use them to know about them!
The service at the place was very helpful and hospitable.The staff was sweet enough to surprise our birthday girl( my sister) with sweets and chocolates arranged to read 'happy birthday'.
Talking about the food, all our order from wine to teas to sandwiches all were brilliant. The desserts too were innovative and yummy! The portion sizes were quite good too.
I can not wait to go back!
We were seated in the artsy room. I ordered waffles and mocha, which are really tasty. The place is very instagrammable and very artsy. Ambience and the atmosphere are perfect and the diners are so classy as well. Do not miss to visit the toilet.
We had afternoon tea at in The Gallery. All the food was wonderful - probably the best sandwiches I’ve ever had as part of a tea. The coronation chicken is amazing.
I love how all the food matches the theme of the space as well.
The only thing I wasn’t a fan of was the first dish was placed down and no one told us what it was; I had to ask after.
Our friends booked us in for a double date afternoon tea. And it was delicious, being waited on like that was a fun experience. The staffs memory immaculate. Super expensive, but that comes with the whole experience and I guess the fact one room has 3 Michelin stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️
The bathroom alone is a whole experience too, beautiful white staircase leading to individual egg like pods with music on in them. Unforgettable, thank you

4.5 stars if I could. Sketch defines a dining and bar -experience-. My friend and I visited for afternoon tea and a drink in the "room" across from the main dining room afterwards. The building is spectacular beyond words and transports you to another world in a way I've never quite experienced before. The
"room" the bar was in felt like sitting in a psychedelic painting. The main dining room was beautiful and was lit exceptionally well. Enjoy taking those pics!
Service is refreshingly relaxed and friendly while still maintaining the professionalism you'd expect from this calibre of an afternoon tea. The staff here really knock it out of the park. We never had an empty pot of tea and were periodically asked if there was anything we'd like additional servings of. You'd expect it to be remarkably stuffy, but they strike a great balance between being fun and refined--not unlike how they've designed the spaces.
Food itself is plentiful (come ready to dine!) and beautifully presented. Nothing was particularly spectacular taste-wise but it was all tasty. Knocked down a star the food category since I really would expect for the entire set menu to knock my socks off. I've had better individual pastries a la carte at patisseries in my life though. That being said, the pineapple and chili cheesecake and orange Victoria sponge cake were highlights. Tea selection is broad and we loved being able to order as many as we liked.
This was a special occasion and Sketch perfectly fit the bill for a leisurely afternoon tea in what "felt" like a once-in-a-lifetime environment. Keyword "felt" as I will certainly be back someday!
Went out spontaneously for last-minute cocktails, and we didn't have to wait too long , which is a bonus. We got served and seated pretty quickly . The service was amazing, I can't fault it at all. Pretty cool vibes, thumbs up.
Had breakfast in the (apologies don’t remember the name) the lower chandelier room and was excellent. We asked when there was availability for the 3 star Michelin and they surprisingly had an opening that day. It was the best dining experience we have ever had. All the servers (especially Daniel the Sommelier) were fantastic. The price of the tasting menu is very reasonable for the amount of food you are served, although ordering off their amazing wine list is what can get you in trouble. The wine service was excellent and am sad I do not live in London as I will not be able to return anytime soon.
The location is absolutely gorgeous! From the (very famous) toilets to the dining area and the cocktail rooms.. everything was fantastic.
I was a little disappointed by the food - the portions were good for the price paid but nothing exceptional taste wise. The tartare could have been fantastic but was ruined by a huge amount of cheese/sauce. Sides (especially fries and onion rings) were very good.
Amazing service.
Sketch is definitely a must do when you're in London but I feel like it is hyped up more for the ambiance than the food. Not that the food was bad but I had high expectations from the start. Make sure to book a reservation in advance! As it's a popular spot seats fill up fast.
The inside is beautiful. With different rooms decorated in different ways it is very instagrammable. The bathrooms are especially cool. The restaurant was completely full the whole time we were there.
The service was top notch. The waiters were amazing. Always checking up on us and making sure we were taken care of. I had the beef fillet to eat which was delicious. Also had the Burgundian egg meurette and it was good as well. Our drinks were strong and delicious. I would give it 4 stars because I felt it was a little over priced but soon learned that in London everything is expensive.
So go for a cool experience, good photos, strong drinks and a unique meal.
I came with my two friends summer bank holiday Monday to celebrate my 30th birthday with afternoon tea and wow, what a celebration it was! Thoroughly enjoyed the food, the service was excellent, from start to finish. I was given a very warm welcome at reception, the receptionist spoke with me which was a lovely personal touch, our server was lovely and helpful and he provided us with extra sandwiches when asked. There was also live music in the form of three ladies with string instruments, and I was presented with a plate which ready happy birthday, safe to say that the vibes were immaculate and we will definitely be coming back in the future. I wish I could remember our servers name because he was wonderful. Thank you sketch 🩷
It was a chilly autumn night and my mom and I had dinner at the Sketch. The whole experience was majestic. Superb service, top-notch and delicate food, not to mention the famous egg-shaped restrooms. I especially loved the walls and the ceiling of the dining area. However, I peaked at the tea room as well, it had the alice-in-wonderland feel. I would love to visit again in the future.
