Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Publiq offers a delightful dining experience with "great food" and "excellent service." The small, innovative menu impresses with standout dishes like risotto and cod. Perfectly located near the Royal Albert Hall, it's ideal for a pre-theatre meal. While some service issues exist, the friendly atmosphere and tasty offerings shine.

A hidden gem close to the Royal Albert Hall, very small place mind you. Excellent service and very tasty scandi fusion food, ideal for sharing a pre-show meal. Very well done Publiq!!

We came here based on google reviews, and did not disappoint. All the staff were so lovely and welcoming, had good knowledge of the menu, the mocktails were pricey but worth the money as they were absolutely delicious. The food was served quickly, it was beautifully plated and everything tasted amazing. Between 2 of us we shared the tempura vegetables for starter, then had chicken schnitzel and meatballs, and waffle for dessert. We emptied every single plate, and very much enjoyed our time here. We will be back!

The cod was the standout dish with its soft texture, crispy skin and delicious sauce. As for starters, the vegetable tempura was top notch. Highly recommend!
