Harden's says

On the site of the original Little Chartroom, and still owned by chef-owner Roberta Hall-McCarron, this place will be a wine bar and small plates spot.

* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

This “outstanding sharing plates restaurant” is “baby sister to the Little Chartroom”, and occupies the site it vacated when founders Roberta Hall & Shaun McCarron needed bigger premises for their main operation. But there’s no suggestion that Eleanore is a secondary consideration, and its “tasty changing menu” wows all who are lucky enough to bag a table.

For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

"Lovely inventive cooking with exemplary service. Only slight mis-step this time was heavy handed seasoning, particularly with the crab dish, which was overwhelmed with spice. But it's worth the uncomfortable stools and cramped, noisy space. Great music!"
