Harden's says
Chef Giuseppe Belvedere is inspired by his Sardinian heritage at this revamp of the former Jim's Cafe on Clapton's Chatsworth Road, serving cafe staples during the day and more ambitious dishes cooked over a wood fire and served alongside low-intervention Italian wines in the evening and Sunday lunch. He is backed by the team behind Milk Cafe and Juliet's Quality Food in southwest London.

Our reviews are based on an annual survey of ordinary diners which runs in Spring each year. But this establishment has not yet gathered enough feedback for our editors to write it up.

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).
