Bistro Bardot (The Turk's Head)

Beautiful little spot in Wapping, perfect for a quiet coffee or a more elaborate occasion. It's so nicely decorated and wonderful in the summer! We had a burger, scallops and clafouttis (with some wine and beer) which were all delicious. We visit often and look forward to the next time!

Cosy garden area to enjoy brunch outdoors whilst also not getting blinded by the sun. Surrounded by trees takes you out of the city rat race feel. Had salmon with poached eggs and everything was really good and tasty would def recommend.

Good food and great outside sitting. Close to a park and very quiet and relaxing. I appreciated the soft ambient music. Pet friendly and charming. The service was ok, but not perfect. They left our table without lights and other decorations once it became dark. We arrived without reservation and we were not able to get everything from the menu. I recommend doing a reservation before going.

Delightful little cafe with consistently great coffee. Dinner portions on the smaller side (for me). Breakfast reasonably priced and service always good. If it’s cold there are heaters and blankets in the inside area. The outside area is only comfortable in the summer months but it’s wonderful when available - the surrounding park makes it feel far less urban that it is.

Very very good. Loved the service, atmosphere and experience. The food was delicious. I’ve never had a perfectly cooked steak in London ever. Medium rare always comes well done but the Turks Head was perfectly cooked. Didn’t like the apple dessert very much but the staff were really receptive to the positive comments. Had a lovely experience. Will decoy one again.

Nice atmosphere and very friendly. The menu was fairly unusual, I had to look up a few dishes, but that's likely more of a reflection on me. House white wine was a good replacement as they didn't have beers / ales. Dog friendly.

Charming cafe/restaurant with friendly staff and a nice vibe. We visited today for some coffee and cake. The pastries tasted a bit stale but the lemon drizzle cake wasn’t half bad. Overall a great spot to visit - it really was quite lovely to sit outdoors in the terrace area and enjoy the sounds of the park. My only suggestion would be that staff need to be more aware of customers waiting to be served in the outdoor seating area. We waited for quite a while and in the end had to go ask someone to come and take our order. Otherwise no other issues.

I’m giving it two stars because we had an incident which was not addressed via the email complaint unfortunately. The incident consists of us being served two dishes that looked nothing like the dishes served to other customers. Our dishes clearly looked like they were bought from supermarket and heated. The two dishes were also cold. We never complained on the spot because we didn’t want to ruin the birthday celebration we were having, but emailed later on, to which we received no response. We’ve been to this place a few times and each time something happened that we didn’t like. Sometimes the food and service is good, however. So it’s a hit and miss, to be honest, which makes us not wanting to come back again. Why risk it?
