after reading some negative reviews, I was cautious, but I got to say I was very positively surprised.
Plus: very friendly staff, my El Diablo Burrito was very good and hot, the corn battered fries where amazing. the cocktails where good and the overall presentation was perfect. also the prices got lower then what most complained about here, I had a cocktail, Burrito and desert for about 32 euros total.
negative: my friend had the shrimp tacos, apparently they where a bid bland and missing salt, some salt on the table would have solved this already. the two waiters where a bit overwhelmed when the terrasse was full, maybe get one or two more waiters and it's fine. I asked about their dessert of the day and it took almost 40 minutes, and we where about to leave until I got an answer and further 15 minutes until I got the dessert.
Result: overall I would recommend it and go again.

I've ordered from here twice on Deliveroo but I can already confidently say that this is one of the best burger places out there. Both times my fries have arrived crispy, the chicken nuggets are good with a decent amount of flavour and the burgers are juicy and tender, no lettuce, tomatoes or other fluff between the bun - it's as a burger should be - just your medium rare patties, bacon, onion jam, sauce - the good stuff.
Helen reviewed French Cooking School
I stayed with Poul and Niall at their beautiful home and attended the cook school over the New Year. I had a great time, learnt so much but in such a relaxed atmosphere with such great hosts. I hired a car and took the opportunity to visit lovely places in the afternoons recommended by them. The food, wine and company made it a brilliant way to spend a New Year break. I can't recommend the place highly enough, the location would be great in the summer time too...

I cannot reccomend Kerrouet Culinary School more. Under Chef Poul even the most experienced of our small group of 6 learned the cooking skills and tricks of a Michelan standard. As for those less experienced, myself included, I've emerged from the school a more confident and skilled chef, fully capable of making authentic French cuisine.
More than this, enjoying all the fantastic food we made during our time in Kerrouet would not be nearly as easy without the carefree and effortless hosting of Poul and Niall, who taught us the art of hosting by example. We enjoyed our meals, aperitifs, digestifs, snacks, and afternoon teas/coffees all the more because of the company and the friendliness of our knowledgable hosts in their stunny and cosy home.
Finally, a word on the location of Kerrouet. While the village is somewhat remote, it provides an excellent base for those keen to explore the surrounding medieval towns of Brittany, and we enjoyed walking the beautiful countryside on our free afternoons. The tranquility and peacefulness of Kerroeut provided the perfect place to learn the local cuisine, with all the delicious locally-sourced ingredients used to make the dishes.
For those looking for a relaxed and yet genuine French cooking course, look no further than Kerrouet! The hospitality of Poul and Niall is matched only by the quality of the food you will produce during your time here.

I literally never ever leave reviews but this is very important. PLEASE OPEN A BRANCH IN FULHAM (or somewhere nearby so I can get my weekly fix on deliveroo, thanks)
No but seriously, this burger is so good it should be illegal. You will crave it all the time, I am convinced the sauce has crack in it.
Quality ingredients, so delicious you will never eat another burger again (or if you do you will be wishing it was this one instead), the fries are also amazing and the only fries that still taste bomb and crispy when cold (what sorcery is this?) Service is really good too, staff are always lovely. 11/10.
