One of the most inspiring restaurants in London! Have a six course menu and be blown away by how masterfully the team combines classic and modern approaches to British cuisine. A must for foodies!

Oli Isaacs

Unbelievably good lunch , our group had the 9 course tasting menu and I had their vegan version which was a delight, even better than expected! Good chilled vibes without a hint of pretension. 10/10

Richard Revis

Just superb. Great food and service, pretty good music as well . Awesome home made bread , taramasalata is a must, duck egg is great, I could go on and on...

I experienced The Clove Club for lunch (5 courses). The staff was kind enough to create a meal low in fodmaps (I have the IBS). All was perfect: food, service, the place, etc. Magical experience????

Brian Strauss

Outstanding, modern British . Full of surprises. Tasting menu was just right. Didn’t leave feeling stuffed. Even if you skip the wine pairing , the sommelier will pick out a couple glasses to go with.

Daren Williams

High end but unpretentious & friendly . Adventurous tasting menu - raw scallops , haggis , pork cuts... My highlight was dessert . Excellent filter coffee . Currently #33 best restaurant in the world

Arsie Jiwajinda

One of the most incredible meals I've had! 9 courses, excellent service, comfortable dining room. Can't wait to come back.

Jarryd Commerford

Delicious British food with great wine pairings . 108 year old Madeira hit the spot. The best meal I have had in London in a long time.

Tanvi Dewan

Can only get the 10 course tasting menu on Saturday nights. Lovely staff and sommelier ! Try the cod risotto ! Timing of food and wine and wine proportion can be off but still a stellar place!

Yiota Pap

OMG!! Amazing! Delicious food and very good service . We did the 11 dish tasting menu and by the end of it we were so full. Great wine list too

Fresh

Tastes good and instagrammable. Service is mental. The surprise menu contains pork as a main course, which might for some appear as a bad surprise...

Duncan Brown

The service here is excellent, warm and friendly . The food is outstanding, each dish on the tasting menu was delicious and the 'funky' wine topped it off (top choice from Emily who looked after us)

Doug de Wet

From the first bite to the last, a most memorable and enjoyable adventure in dining. Wonderful warm service , beautiful atmosphere and spectacular smiling food.

María

Every mouthful is delightful. The presentation, the service, the atmosphere... get ready to dine in style. No rush, here it feels you have all the time in the world.

Just wonderful! Tasting menu is insanely good & innovative and the wine pairings are perfect! The staff are knowledgeable & the service is impecable. Great for special occasions . Must book in advance.

Utku Can

Isaac Hale of The Young Turks fame is serving up some of the best modern British food in town . Book a table for the tasting menu , or grab the buttermilk fried chicken and a cocktail in the bar .

Angela Liu

Small british restaurant serving tasting menu with contemporary british food . Beautiful presentation and experimental cooking but just not to my liking

Anasuya Iyer

The vegetarian tasting menu was fantastic! Everything from the compressed cucumber to the mushroom consumme, while sounding strange and simplistic, blows you away. Also the best service I've ever seen

Jonathan Snook

Sardine was fantastic! The tart at the end was rich and delicious. Great wine pairing . Tea pairing was delightful too.

Vikash

Great food, great atmosphere, and great service. Highly recommended the set menu . The chicken nugget and chicken feet starters were the highlights. The aphros loureiro wine is also recommended

Joel Goodman

Worth every penny. We sat at the bar and experienced excellent service and even better cocktails . Food is what you'd expect at this level: inventive and delicious.

Brahim Bahmad

Nice place, great atmosphere and incredible food! The bar is amazing and the cocktail are perfect! Quite expensive but you won't regret it! Deserve his 1* !!!

Garry Thomas

Sit at the bar and enjoy the prestige wine paring with the tasting menu . Bugger the cost.

Irina V

Fantastic! Service is brilliant and the food is outstanding. Can't believe they only have 1 Michelin *. Love the fact that they've kept most of the original features of the old town hall

Dan

One of the best places around to eat at. Great food great service great atmosphere.

Split into restaurant and bar , you can take a table around the free standing bar and snack on smaller plates or book into the restaurant and devour their five course menu. The food is from... Read more

Exceptional food! Ordered the 9 courses tasting menu . The buttermilk chicken , the scallops and the fallow were divine!

Niamh Sheerin

Wow. Everything was so tasty and the staff were so friendly and really seemed interested and enthusiastic. Wonderful experience.

Tony Muraki-Hart

Smoked mackerel sashimi was delicious, as was everything else. Great food & great service. Wine was devine!

N B

Very good food; creative and interesting. A good example of London food trends in the last couple of years, but a little overpriced for the amount of food.

Dustin Lee

4-Course Lunch was perfect. Impressed by the salad , monkfish , bread & butter, and the dessert . Beautiful space and great staff .

The fantastic service may distract from the amazing food. Prepare to be treated. Think less and try the tasting menu .

Christine Murti

Amazing house made bread , Instagram worthy presentation, and impeccable service . 5 course tasting menu has lots of extra snacks and treats too!

New English kitchen at its best. Innovative but not crazy, served by a wonderful staff . Early reservation highly recommended.

Max Lmn

Great, great place. Casual setting, great value tasting menu with amazing flavours and great local ingredients .

Kaylie M

Amazing. Ask them what they recommend and just go with it.

Shell ster

Lots of potential but too much salt. About sums up the small plates . The rye bread and cod roe is very good. So is the buttermilk chicken . I'll give it another try with the tasting menu !

Moozl

This was the best apple pie I've ever had in my life. Everything else was perfect.
