“ I’ve walked past this place many times and always wanted to try it so when I finally made plans to come here I was so excited, it did not disappoint! I tried lamb, beef, pork and prawn skewers with rice and dumplings on the side. The dumplings were great and came with a delicious garlic sauce. What I enjoyed the most were the lamb skewers to the point I had to order a second round. So yummy! I really liked the setup of the seating and the interior of the place. Feels like being in a different country. The only downside was the heat coming from the skewer grill was really uncomfortable for the eyes, other than that everything was great and already recommended the place to my friends and will be back myself for sure! ”
“ I frequently visit Skewers and Beer on Rupert Street near Piccadilly Circus, and it's become one of my favorite spots for Chinese cuisine. Their barbecue options are fantastic, offering a delightful array of skewers that are always cooked to perfection. The flavors are authentic and the portions generous, making it a great value for the price. The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, perfect for a casual meal with friends or family. Their beer selection complements the food wonderfully, adding to the overall experience. The only downside is the service, which tends to be a bit slow. This is the only reason I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 5. However, the quality of the food more than makes up for the wait, and the staff is always friendly and accommodating. Overall, Skewers and Beer is a must-visit for anyone craving delicious Chinese barbecue near Piccadilly Circus. Highly recommended! ”
“ A very nice sit down environment with amazing food, staff are really welcoming and well let's be honest, the food here is quite flavoursome, I ordered various dishes & I must say, very impressive ”
“ Finally we were able to try this place. We went on a Saturday evening and good thing there were available seats. You are given an IPAD to order, prices are reasonable and there are a lot of choices. For me I love the chicken skin, pig intestine and the oyster. My partner was fond of everything especially the beef. My daughter loved the chicken thigh and the noodles. It was a great experience and food was great. Staff were super helpful, they would even suddenly come to your table when they noticed you burning your food. There is a toilet here as well. Will definitely go back ”
“ First time coming here and wasn't disappointed. Skewers were delish, cook via the rotating grill on the table. Highly recommend the pork intestines noodles and aubergine. Our server Faud was attentive and his service was quick. Will diff come back with the kids ”
“ We arrived an hour prior to closing with a large party of 16 and they instantly accommodated us. We had a wide selection of dishes from noodles, skewers and more… everything was delicious packed full of flavour and fresh. Great atmosphere and we loved the skewers being cooked right in front of us. Fabulous little find, you’ll not be disappointed. ”
“ Came here for an early Saturday dinner but surprisingly the restaurant was quite full! Space feels quite cosy and the food was nice as well. Love the belt noodles! ”
