\"London\u2019s<\/p>\n

1. Harden’s is the UK’s original ‘user-generated content’ restaurant review site and guide, taking survey feedback from ordinary diners and curating them into reviews and ratings. The Harden’s survey of regular restaurant-goers is now in its 26th year. It has been national in scope since 1999. Harden’s is the only established detailed annual survey of restaurant-goers across the UK.<\/p>\n

2. Unlike restaurant review sites like TripAdvisor, Harden’s has never published its surveyees’ raw reports online, to prevent ballot-stuffing. Having no access to raw user reviews makes it much harder to \u201cgame\u201d the Harden’s system, because it is impossible to gauge how much false data to submit to do so. What’s more, Harden’s longstanding core of reviewers \u2013 some of who have been participating for over 20 years \u2013 provides a control group by which to assess reports from newer respondents.<\/p>\n

3. Harden’s content is available in guidebook format, and in apps for iPhone; and also at www.hardens.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

4. Harden’s London Restaurants 2017, \u00a312.99, and Harden’s Best UK Restaurants 2017, \u00a315.99, will be published in October and November respectively. The guides are available in all good bookshops, including Waterstone’s and Amazon.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
