8 Great Restaurants for Dinner in Holborn-Clerkenwell
No matter whether you’re looking for trendy British cuisineor something a little more casual, Holborn and Clerkenwell both sport a number of restaurants that will impress everyone, from parents to first dates.
1. Foxlow
Restaurant, Cocktail Bar, Gastropub, British, Vegan, Vegetarian
Clerkenwell definitely has become a bit of a hub for seriously seasonal British restaurants. Foxlow is one such place, and is a meat eater’s paradise. You’ve got grass fed British flat iron steaks, free-range fried chicken, short rib Wednesdays, and on Mondays you can take your own beer in. Now that’s our kind of place.
2. Dans Le Noir
Restaurant, Bar, European, Vegan, Vegetarian
3. Bird of Smithfield
Restaurant, Market, British, Vegetarian, Vegan, Gluten-free
You could walk past Bird of Smithfield very easily. It’s an unassuming shop front in a Georgian townhouse, but in the inside are two bars, a private dining room and a glorious, hidden roof terrace with views over Smithfield. The menu changes monthly and features plenty of fish, a British take on seasonal eating, and hearty puddings. One for a long slow evening.
4. St John
Restaurant, British
5. Polpo Smithfield
Restaurant, Italian, Vegan, Vegetarian, Fast Food
6. The Delauney
Restaurant, Brasserie, Cafe, European
