Harden's survey result
Summary
“A beautiful old boozer on the Dalston/Haggerston border”, restored and revamped in mid-2018 as a “cracking local gastropub”, with chef Tom Oldroyd (formerly of the Polpo group; see also Oldroyd N1). He has put a traditional French twist on its gastropub fare, helping to win an enthusiastic fanclub, with cod’s roe starter, “fab burger” and “top Sunday lunch” singled out for particular praise. “If the place looks familiar, it was previously a seafood restaurant (The Richmond) and before that a cheap ‘n’ cheerful bistro with weird classical artefacts (LMNT)... and long before that a dodgy boozer”.

Summary
Chef and restaurateur, Tom Oldroyd, follows up his diminutive debut, Oldroyd in N1, with this much larger venue near London Fields, which opened in June 2018 – a pub and dining room offering a French twist on seasonal British produce; ex-Canton Arms and Winemakers Deptford chef Rory Shannon is in charge of the open fire cooking in the semi-open kitchen. Early press reviews are a tad mixed, but overall positive.
