Middle Temple Lane, London EC4Y 9BT

6 - 8 Caledonian Road, King's Cross, London N1 9DT

Is there room in King's Cross for another restaurant specialising in local produce, when Konstam and Acorn House are already ploughing this particular trail? The owners of Brill certainly hope so. Their aim is to 'evolve the local environment' - whatever that means...

108 Parkway, Camden, London NW1 7AN

Owner David Upton was inspired to open Coast by his grandparents who live in St Ives. Paintings from Cornish artists line the walls and the menu emphasis is firmly on sustainable seafood.

2-4 Boundary Street, Shoreditch, London E2 7JE

The fact that you can't book a table, may deter some from making the trek across town to the cafe at Terence Conran's new gastrodome in Shoreditch. But for those who either live the right side of town or are prepared to wait, there's a lot of things to love about Albion.

90 York Way, King's Cross, London N1 9AG

This King's Place restaurant is in a super setting especially during the summer months with a massive terrace opening onto the canal. The menu is modern British, and you'll find all the meat here sourced from the restaurant's own farm in Northumberland.

40 Liverpool Street, London, England EC2M 7QN

85 Houndsditch, London EC3A 7AU

Barny Stoppard (son of playwright Tom) is deadly serious when it comes to fast food - food here is locally sourced and fresh rather than frozen. Burgers, sandwiches and salads go down well with credit-crunched bankers and there's a local delivery service.

168 Highgate Road, Kentish Town, London NW5 1QS

It takes a lot to make yet another gastropub opening stand out from the crowd in London but the Bull and Last appears to have stuck to the tried and tested formula of serving simply fantastic food. They call themselves a Pub and Kitchen, but reviewers felt the food surpassed usual gastropub fare to be truly gourmet.

St Pancras Grand, St Pancras International, London, NW1 9QP

With the helping hand of Fay Maschler in the menu department, Searcy's have turned this flagship project into a British destination restaurant to thrill French tourists as they disembark at St Pancras as well as enticing somewhat reticent Londoners into dining at their own railway stations.

Terminal 5, Wellington Road, Heathrow Airport HOUNSLOW TW6 2GA

As Gordon's first venture into airport catering, Plane Food was quite a risk for Ramsay. But the thoughtful menu, easy-going vibe and occasional celebrity diner proves that Heathrow's Terminal 5 had at least one successful story when it opened.

1 Mepham Street, London SE1 8RL

Fulham Palace, London SW6 6EA

27 Coldharbour, Docklands, London, E14 9NS

The Gun is an ever-popular Docklands pub right by the river, now run by Fullers. It's based in a 19th Century building (it takes its name from the cannon that was fired at the opening of the West India Docks). There's a seasonal British menu on offer and ideally, you'll want to grab a table on their riverside terrace.
