* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

“An amazing small restaurant in quirky premises” that span an “historic cinema” (the Kino, which dates back to 1913) and the “interesting” Baker-Mamonova Gallery, which showcases 20th-century Russian art. The dining area has had a few different iterations over the years, and is currently run in-house, focussing on crowd-pleasing mains (the “mussels are amazing”), “great coffee” and breakfasts, plus a long list of cocktails. Given the location, it’s particularly “good for a pre-Kino dinner”.

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).
