Stokey bears doesn't exist anymore. We were really excited to go and arrived at a Sports Bar to be told that it had closed down. The food there was ok but not what we were after. Stokey bears should remove this from Open Table and also from their website to avoid more disappointed customers.

It has shut down, even though Open Table still let you book a table! We turned up to a new restaurant with no booking!

Went to the Stokey Bear for dinner on a Saturday evening. The menu does not provide a lot of choice and the prices were probably a little too much for what we were having. Was inconvenienced by not having salt or pepper on the tables. Also I had to go up and ask at the bar for cutlery to eat my meal? A shame as I’d heard such good reviews.

Fabulous burgers and fries, really well made cocktails, party music and a good selection of beers. As this is a burger and beer place, it would be good if the wait-staff knew more about the beer they are serving, maybe a bit of training on the drinks. Apart from that, great experience!

Having seen lots of Stokey Bear burger photos online, I thought this is a must try venue for a real foodie. The restaurant is unassuming from the outside, and the inside is quite dark with laminated (sticky) menus. It does put doubt in your mind, as you are seated on wooden benches and stools with a large kitchen roll on each table. Nevertheless, we were determined to try their burgers, and ordered a "Triple Threat" £17 and a "Greedy Bear" £14 burger with deep fried chicken wings £6.50 as a side. The chicken wings were covered in a very strange sauce, which totally ruined them making them inedible. It was a slightly salty yet sour sauce - not what we expected at all when it said deep fried (others are BBQ wings, which you'd expect to receive covered in sauce). The burgers were totally overcooked - the patty was dry, rock hard and well done (close to cremation making them hard to chew and hurt the roof of your mouth). The flavours within the burger were actually very, very good, and had the patty actually been medium rare like in all the photos they use online, I think it would easily have been a fabulous burger. As both burgers (five patties between them) were totally over cooked, I cannot recommend Stokey Bears. Also given the ambience of a very bare, dark restaurant with laminated menus. The staff were quite uninterested - mind you, it was a Saturday afternoon, but I did expect better and perhaps a bit more enthusiasm towards their diners (only three tables in total). Tom, the founder/owner of Stokey Bears was sent a message on social media about our visit, and he seemed very disappointed and shocked about our bad experience. However, no attempt was made to encourage us to come back to try again, or try a different venue, which I found quite surprising. The flavours have REAL potential - location, venue, staff and cooking skills though have not at those prices. Sorry to say this, as I love a great burger joint!

Best burger I have had in London so far, although a bit pricy. That bacon jam though is a gift from heaven

The food was amazing! And generous portions too. Service was great also. Only thing that let it down slightly was that there was no air-con and it was absolutely boiling in there which meant we didn't hang around as long as we'd liked too! So maybe don't go on a really hot day. Overall, great place!

Meal for 12 (majority 13 year olds plus a few adults) and it was perfect for what we needed. Good food, and hot sauce!

Didn't even bother trying to eat there - the nasty laminated menu did not bear any resemblance to the website and there was to be no effort in trying to accommodate what had been advertised online - just apathy .... plus the table was sticky! The food may be good if you fancy something from their limited menu but I for won't be bothering to find out.
