    Tried the southern fried chicken burger, it’s enormous. Delicious but so big I couldn’t eat it all or anything else I ordered. Very generous portions. Milkshake is very filling but delicious. Brought two friends and they enjoyed their macaroni cheese and the fajitas. All in all a very successful meal. Staff always smiling too which feels very welcoming. Especially the gentleman who met us at the entrance.

    Always enjoy a meal and cocktails at Maxwells when coming to London. The food is good but mainly come for the cocktails which are very good. Staff are also very efficient and helpful and service is good.

    My sons who are 5 and 3 had a great time. It was lovely that the restaurant made provisions for kids with activities and the drinks came quick as well as the food service. My eldest son said he rates Maxwell’s a 10 out of 10. He loved his food and atmosphere. Highly recommend this place as this is my second time going.

    Always a good bet for families. Even though it was busy, we were never left waiting. Food was quick, fresh and hot. Staff were friendly and it’s great for a pre/post theatre show. Booking via OpenTable app makes so easy.

    Maxwell's is always brilliant and our favourite place to eat in Central London in a relaxed, fun and casual atmosphere. It's always busy which is what makes the vibrant atmosphere, and the management and staff work so hard and in such an organised way to deliver a memorable time. I can't fault it in any way.

    Staff were extremely friendly and helpful despite us being a large party of 15 and it being the weekend before Christmas. A couple of our dishes were a little late arriving and they made a small adjustment to the bill to compensate. Food was high quality and well presented. Thank you!
