The Ivy Cafe Wimbledon Village

One weekday evening, I visited this place with people I care about, and I was genuinely surprised to find such an atmospheric spot in Wimbledon. The ambiance exuded from the interior itself—elegant yet understated, luxurious without going overboard. It struck the perfect balance. The staff’s service was as delightful as the food’s flavors, which made me savor every bite, something I hadn’t done in a while. The prices were fair, and it’s a spot I’d love to revisit with loved ones right here in the neighborhood. It’s a place that can easily turn an ordinary evening into something a bit more memorable.

A truly unforgettable dining experience at The Ivy Wimbledon Village: My first visit to The Ivy Wimbledon Village was an absolute delight!

The combination of exquisite food, stunning decor, and impeccable service makes it a must-visit for anyone looking for a truly unforgettable dining experience. I can't wait to return!

What a lovely place and a real pity on the disappointing service. The team were gracious enough to replace our cocktails were just too sweet but french fries were ordered which never arrived. The staff were very pleasant but when you pay the amt you do at the Ivy, you definitely expect better service. I am not sure if I will, but I do want to go back. May ask not to be seated at the very back though if I venture again. I think you get forgotten!

They went a bit OTT with the wall hangings but the food and atmosphere shine through. I had the blackened cod with broccoli and chips. It was a very filling meal. The fish was cooked perfectly, which I understand is what the Ivy is reputed. I can’t wait to return for the fishcake which is one of my greatest weaknesses in life, along with Ruinart blanc de blancs. And I couldn’t believe it but the ladies smelt divine, like oud.

This time, I had grilled halloumi with veggies, but I didn’t like the sauce—it had a rather strong smell and taste for me. However, the espresso martini was very good, as always. The service and ambiance were great, too. After Marlow Ivy, this Ivy is my favorite♥️

First time coming here and will be back. Staff were incredible at hosting and we never felt unattended. Food is fantastic portions are enough and you leave full! Cute little spot and very well priced.

Great cafe. Went out to meet friends for lunch many times and never disappointed. Good foods, good service, and beautiful deco. It's not easy to get a table for dinner. it needs advanced booking, but I have no problem popping in for lunch, though.

We made a reservation at The Ivy Wimbledon for our anniversary meal on New Year’s Day, booking online and indicating the occasion, though we didn’t expect any special treatment. Unfortunately, the weather was cold, windy, and rainy on that day, and upon arrival, we were seated at the table right by the entrance. I asked to be moved because I was feeling very cold. The young lady who attended to us promised to relocate us when another table became available. However, after a while, I noticed several tables freeing up, yet we remained in our original spot. When I inquired again, I was told there were no available tables for us to move to. We ordered starters, and I chose the truffle arancini, which didn’t suit my palate, although I imagine those who enjoy truffle might appreciate it. I wanted to order additional drinks, but the waitstaff seemed preoccupied, and I ended up going to the bar myself to place an order for cocktails. Throughout our visit, the waiters appeared quite miserable, with not a single smile exchanged. I overheard them complaining about other customers and issues from the previous day, which struck me as unprofessional. Most of the staff, contributed to a gloomy atmosphere that made me reluctant to continue dining there. As the meal progressed, I found myself putting on my coat due to the cold, which felt exacerbated by the air conditioning and the drafts coming through the door. Eventually, I noticed a table further inside the restaurant that had opened up. I approached another server, who was polite and acknowledged my discomfort, agreeing to move us. However, just as our mains arrived—while we were still at our chilly table—the server who was attending to us about our food expressed annoyance at our decision to change tables. His body language made me feel quite uncomfortable. On a positive note, the steak I ordered was lovely, and the dessert—a chocolate bomb—was decent, although I’m not a fan of dark chocolate. I was also disappointed to see a couple next to us receiving a complimentary dessert for their anniversary. While I hadn’t expected anything special, it was disheartening to witness when they had made such an effort for others. Given the overall experience, I cannot recommend this location, and I certainly wouldn’t return.
