Nestled inside the iconic Hippodrome Casino in Leicester Square, Chop Chop offers a delightful dining experience that’s truly worth the visit. Located in one of London’s most vibrant areas, the restaurant provides an exciting culinary escape, combining delicious food, friendly service, and a lively atmosphere. Whether you’re looking for a great meal before heading to the casino or just want to enjoy a night out with friends, this is the perfect spot to indulge in something special.

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. They went above and beyond to ensure our experience was top-notch, offering helpful insights into the menu and recommending dishes based on our preferences. Their insider tips really made a difference, and their attentive service truly enhanced our dining experience. It’s rare to find such a knowledgeable and friendly team, and it was clear they were committed to making every guest feel at home.

One thing to note is that the portions are generous, so come hungry! The menu offers a great variety of options, catering to different tastes and preferences, and we appreciated the balance between hearty, comforting dishes and lighter, fresher options. Each plate was beautifully presented, with fresh ingredients and bold flavours that kept us coming back for more.

But it wasn’t just the food that impressed us, their cocktail menu is a standout feature too. The drinks are creative, well-crafted, and incredibly flavourful. Whether you’re in the mood for something sweet, tangy, or even something with a little kick, the cocktails here will not disappoint. We enjoyed a couple of signature cocktails during our visit, and they were absolutely fantastic.

Overall, Chop Chop inside the Hippodrome is an amazing dining destination. The delicious food, large portions, fantastic cocktails and outstanding service make it a must-visit for anyone in the area. Highly recommended!
