Harden's survey result
Summary
“Tom Brown’s single-minded passion for fish and seafood shines through” at his “mecca of fine dining” – a post-industrial space “tucked away not far from the canal” in “wondrously trendy Hackney Wick”. “We love its informality and the friendliness of the staff” who give “detailed descriptions explaining the provenance of each dish” from “a stunning menu”. “So, get your skinny jeans on, tousle that beard (man bun optional) and go!” Top Menu Tip – “fabulous crab bun with pear hoisin”; “shrimps in a sort of panna cotta, decorated with sprouting herbs and vegetables… inspired”.
Summary
“Unbelievably good food…”, “so clever…”, “each dish was perfection…”, “the best fish dishes I’ve eaten…”, “mind blowing!” – Tom Brown inspires superlatives with the “small yet superbly composed” creations as his “truly innovative seafood destination”. “The décor is industrial as you would expect in trendy Hackney Wick” and you can “sit at the counter and watch the chefs at work”. Service that’s “highly professional without being stuffy or offhand” completes an “unfailingly amazing” formula that’s currently one of the strongest all-round performances in town. Top Menu Tip – “signature crab crumpet is changed for winter by adding a rarebit on top”.
For 34 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).
