I really enjoyed my visit to Cotton’s. I wish I had gotten there before 9:30 so I could have sat outside — the views looked amazing! The staff were lovely, and the inside of the restaurant was beautiful too. Food & Cost: • Fritters: 5/10 • Prawns: 8.5/10 • Oxtail with Rice: 8.5/10 For me and a friend, dinner with drinks came to £99.55. I’d definitely recommend giving this place a visit! Bonus: before 7pm, they offer 20% off food, plus they have 2-for-1 cocktails, which makes it even better.

First time at Cottons. Arrived and Carly without a booking but welcomed and sat at table very quickly. Couple of beers and relaxed for 45 minutes before ordering shared mixed platter for two as a starter. ( very nice and included a bit of everything.) Had a gap of hen ordered mains. Oxtail with rice and peas and salmon. Very tasty and tangy food nice menu and lots of choice. Very friendly staff. I traveled by tube but you can get there by boat as boat pier directly outside. Clean and tidy restaurant with good music playing in the background. Like Caribbean food-like a bit of reggae then this is a good spot. Recommended 😁🏴🇳🇱

This place looks inviting. It was busy and, there was definitely a vibe. The staff were clearly keen to please although, at times slow to respond. The cocktails were passable - we chose some of the happy hour selection which felt, a little like the alcohol content had been rationed. We ordered a selections of sharing plates as starters which worked really well, for our party. I was however surprised when I ordered, what the menu said was a shrimp dish in chilli and honey, which arrived in the form of humongous prawns - fully dressed so to speak, which were covered in the sauce but with no finger bowl, so that I could tackle the task of removing the shells. Had I known, I would not have ordered them and, this meant that, I didn't have much of a main. Sadly, I left thinking 'could do better'
