We went on Friday for the Forman’s tour. This is a must when living or visiting London. We were welcomed by Lloyd, Claire and their wonderful team, instantly making us feel welcome. We enjoyed coffee in the restaurant over looking the river. Lance Foreman then gave a talk, which was very interesting, intriguing and funny. Downstairs to the factory to see Darren world class salmon slicing skills. He could get a world record for his banter too, very funny indeed. We finished with a tasting plate of quite simply the best smoked salmon in the world!!!! I can’t recommend the tour enough, it’s amazing. And if you can’t get to the tour order some smoked Salomon online you will not be disappointed....
We had booked a tour and found our way through the rain to the smokery to be warmly welcomed by Claire and were guided to the dining hall to listen to the most interesting talk about the history of the company and the various processes which are all done by hand before donning white coats hair and shoe protectors. We were then invited to descend to the factory floor and allowed to take pictures before settling down to watch the very jovial, funny and expertly Darren explaining and demonstrating all there was to know about the Salmon, the salting drying smoking or curing processes. Also very informative and well done. A truly memorable experience.
I love this restaurant: it's spacious, quiet and the food is always delicious. I was lucky to visit just before the lockdown and i can't wait to return once the situation is back to normal: the restaurant is spacious, they don't cram people in like...so many other restaurants in London, so I would feel comfortable visiting again. They don't play loud music so it's the ideal venue to catch up with people and you can hear each other talk. Yes, I really can't wait to be back. But in the meantime, we have been able to celebrate special occasions during lockdown with the food delivery service. Thank you for indulging us when there was nowhere to go!
wow was the waiting to visit formans for a tour and tasting that had to be delayed due to the pandemic. we all enjoyed listening our time at formans to the Forman story, always seeing a world recorder that cuts one side. of smoked salmon and talk us through the process that makes formans lach unique and with distance the best! it was a well thought out tour with a beautiful tasting of the salmon in their beautiful restaurant.
What a great time spent at Forman's Smokery! Started with very interesting talk by Lance Forman on it's history, followed by Darren showing us how salmon is smoked and then carving a side of smoked salmon. He should be on the stage with his personality and dexterity ! Followed by a tasting platter served in the restaurant which was delicious! Thanks to them both, to Lloyd and all the staff super day !
It’s a few years since we had the most magnificent meal at Forman’s (2012 to be precise) and we had the most magnificent view of the Olympic stadium while the Para-Olympics were being held. Gorgeous meal of many small but exquisite courses. Seeing the salmon...being cured was an added interest.
the first of the open days since covid began. lance forman was excellent and really bought his family company to live. wrap up warm, it's cold in food! the guy who showed us how to cut laughs?. was a real card big 3 hours and good price. do it!
This is not a review about the restaurant but about the smoked salmon fabulous not too smokey, not too oily delicious. Went to Forman’s on a salmon carving class gifted to us by a friend my word. An absolutely superb course.
Thoroughly enjoyed the briefing and demonstration given on the smokehouse. Learned a lot of most interesting facts that I will put into practice when shopping for smoked salmon in the future. It was a real fun evening.
Another wonderful meal, with a phenomenal view over the Olympic Park. Food is fab, staff outstanding. If you haven’t you must!!
