108 Essex Rd, London N1 8LX

If you’re pining for a chicken fillet roll, or want to try the viral Irish takeaway spice bag then Homeboy’s Islington bar is the place to come. Match the home cooked food with an Irish-inspired cocktails at this lively speakeasy.

12 Park Drive, London E14 9ZW

Mallow is from the people behind Mildreds, and this restaurant has a 100% plant-based brasserie-style menu. That menu features dishes like Spinach Dahi Puri and Aubergine Muhamammara Borek. The second Mallow, it's a much larger restaurant than the original and also features a big terrace. An all-day restaurant, it's handy for plant-based breakfasts too.

14 Station Parade, Richmond TW9 3PZ

Hawthorn took over the prime place in Kew that used to be The Glasshouse. The menu comes from owner and chef Joshua Hunter, previously at Kitchen W8 and Murano. Here he's going for a modern European take with an extra focus on British game and wild food.

16 St Anne's Ct, London W1F 0BF

Hidden away in Soho is Simon Rogan's only London restaurant, a chef's table experience that fits in only 12 people per sitting. Everything is centred around the kitchen, so you're right in the thick of things. Here you can expect an ever-changing "farm to fork" tasting menu with a large amount of the produce sourced from Rogan's own Lake District farm.
