Langans Brasserie

Was fortunate to be taken to Langhams tonight for dinner. Arrived and greeted by smart attentive waiters and after a quick drink went to our table, room was completely full.

My overall impression was VERY average indeed. Gastropub quality but at £230 inc tip for that lot not exactly gastropub prices. Wanted to go to Langhams for a while but certainly wont be returning.

I've been to langan's on and off since the mid 80's when it was sill in ownership of Peter Langan, I was never impressed with the food, it was always in my opinion only slightly better than Joe Allen's, It was and still is simple brasserie food, In those days it was still a novelty and we didn't have all the Gastro Pubs etc, that you have now. Now you are spoilt for choice.
