Restaurant Reviews

26 St John Street, London EC1M 4AY

Fergus Henderson and Trevor Gulliver's renowned restaurant has for decades been many critics' favourite place in London. This is their flagship restaurant and its focus on "nose to tail" eating makes it a must-visit for anyone looking for the very best in modern British cooking. The bar here is also very good, so even if you're not dining, stopping by for a glass of one of the St John wines and a snack is highly recommended.

The Arcade, Liverpool Street, LONDON, EC2M 7PN

Boxpark are primarily known for their semi-container village approach, but for Boxhall, they've opened something that's more in the classic food hall/court mode. Taking over what used to be an Edwardian shopping arcade, they've filled it with 13 spaces for food as well as bars, shops and more. You'll find everything from a bakery to burgers in here and a whole lot more.

4 Cromwell Place, London SW7 2JE

The Lavery has taken over a historic space in Kensington, across a series of Grade II-listed Georgian townhouses, for a very swish place to have a Mediterranean-led meal. Inside the beautiful space, you'll find a seasonal Mediterranean menu of small and sharing plates alongside a notably well-priced European-focused wine list.

152 Curtain Road, London EC2A 3AT

This Ukrainian restaurant in Shoreditch takes Southern Ukraine as its inspiration and is led by restaurateurs who have multiple restaurants in that country. Expect a modern take on the cuisine, with dishes like mushrooms on a grapevine twig and with portions on the generous side. Look out for the hidden garden at the back, a great place to be during the warmer months.
