Breaking news

November 2021: this site is shifting focus, and will be a full-time bakery and shop under head baker Helen Evans. A sibling opens in Bermondsey in December.

Harden's says

Although not the most obvious partnership, this "bakery and wine bar" is from the team behind Lyle's, so it should work out just fine; it's also "inspired by the buvettes of Paris and pintxos bars of San Sebastian". Lockdown flex: ASAP Pizza, co-owned by Flor's James Lowe, ran from a hatch here during lockdown. It received rave reviews so we'd expect a permanent home for it to be announced soon.

James Lowe’s (he of Lyle’s) and JKS Restaurants’ all-day bakery and wine bar in Borough Market (mostly) inspires a hymn of praise. Culinary offerings might run from coffee and croissants to calf’s brains and a glass of Closeries des Moussis, and there’s strong praise for a selection of dishes that’s “innovative, but not outré” backed up by a “great wine list”. Also, it’s “a darling little place and staff are just lovely!”.

Summary

James Lowe and John Ogier – of epic Shoreditch legend Lyle’s – plus backers JKS Restaurants launched this all-day bakery and wine bar venture in Borough Market in mid-July, too late for survey feedback. The offering stretches from coffee and croissants in the morning, through small plates at lunch, to a more wine-bar vibe in the evening. Early press reports are predictably adulatory… but they are probably correct.

For 33 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).
