Having been to a number of Geronimo Inns Gastro Pubs I had a high expectation for the Adam & Eve, it certainly didn’t fail to meet it. Just off Oxford Street it was a welcomed retreat from all the hustle and bustle. My friends and I were just looking to have a quick drink to get out of the sun but once we had seen the Adam & Cheese burgers go out to another customer we were sold! We had to stay for food too! The pub had a huge wine selection, I asked one of the bar staff what they recommended and was pleased to hear a variety of options including their personal favourite. As a wine novice I went with their favourite, the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, cheekily it was the most expensive wine on the menu but honestly SO worth it! THEN, the burgers! The were just what you would expect from a Geronimo Pub, a towering burger with all the trimmings and a generous share of chips on the side. The staff were friendly, helpful and the pub had a great atmosphere. Also they were playing the tennis! A great pub and I would highly recommend it if you are after good quality classic pub food and drink!
Decor isn’t everything. The Adam and Eve might be brightly styled, with a curiously zombie-like Michael Caine looking over the high-ceilinged room. The Adam and Eve might be better served paying more attention to the food, or the service. Even if they were only to focus on one of these it would stand for a significant improvement. After ten minutes without a glance from the staff, we source our own menus. We use a rudimentary version of a lobster-net to catch a waitress when we want to place an actual order. The food comes half a decade later, in small portions at high cost. A macaroni and cheese dish is dull and flavourless. Fish and chips are half the size of a decent seaside portion, at three times the cost. These, too, are dull and flavourless. A fish finger sandwich features no fish fingers – rather thin goujons that are at least as much breadcrumb as they are actual fish. A sad dollop sits in the centre of large but unattended and, again, dull and flavourless, bread. A pint of cider comes served 80% in a glass and, curiously, 20% on my shirt. swilliamthomas.tumblr.com
