Harden's survey result
Summary
“So lucky to have this on my doorstep!” – Joe Lambert’s “firm favourite” near Balham tube has long been the area’s top neighbourhood choice thanks to its “first-rate”, “seasonal” cooking; “friendly and informed service”; and an agreeable ambience that’s smart enough for a date or special occasion, but relaxed enough for an evening when you can’t be bothered to cook. Its ratings slipped a tad this year though: not due to any grievous complaints, but a few more meals were judged “fine-but-nothing-exceptional”. Top Tip – excellent-value early-week menu.
Summary
“A culinary beacon in Balham” that’s been “consistently excellent for 15 years” – Joe Lambert’s “outstanding local independent” provides “very seasonal” cooking of a kind that “stays current without slipping into faddishness”. “The ambience is somewhat Scandi-cool” but livened up by the “engaging and lovely staff”. Top Menu Tip: “outstanding Sunday roasts”.
For 31 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).
