Restaurant Reviews

41 Earlham St, London WC2H 9LX

The people behind hugely successful ramen bar Bone Daddies have opened a new basement restaurant selling steamed hirata buns with DIY fillings including slow roasted shoulder of lamb with Korean flavours and robata grilled seabass with coriander miso.

56 Wardour Street, London W1D 4JG

Jackson + Rye is from the people behind Grillshack and offers all day informal menu from breakfast until 'late' - running to midnight on Friday and Saturday. The vibe is very much East Coast America with menus inspired by that part of the world.

36 The Cut, London SE1 8LP

One of the most longstanding places to eat around Waterloo (it opened in 2003) has also remained one of the very best. From the same people behind The Canton Arms and The Clarence Tavern, it has a regularly changing menu of seasonal British food and like all the best gastropubs, operates as both a restaurant and a proper pub. Grabbing a space on the terrace is where you want to be in the summer months.

141 Tooting High Street, London SW17 0SY

Originally a huge hit when it first opened in Kentish Town, the second Chicken Shop has gone to the other side of London. Expect marinated rotisserie chicken plus plenty of sides, desserts and takeaway too.
