great food, great service, good wine by the glass program, great setting: rustic country feel. at 6.30 pm the dining room was very young and fun. by 7.30 pm it had transitioned to completely different vibe of date night mixed with larger tables of business meal/entertainment. what a change over. i was alone and had a great time. started with the bread/anchovies, house made chorizo, sweetbreads dressed with a light parsley greens and peas (yum!!!!), over roasted greens (chewy and yums) and the duck, which was beautiful! i separately wanted the turbot but the smallest was 1.6 kilos. the server was incredibly helpful and fun. great experience.

Had a fantastic lunch yesterday at Brat. Huge thanks to Charlotte for arranging us a last-minute table — really appreciated and started the experience perfectly. Food and service were both absolutely first class from start to finish. Great atmosphere, beautiful cooking, and a team that genuinely makes you feel looked after. Already looking forward to coming back.

One of the best meals I’ve had in London. The food is exceptional, every dish was great- if we had to choose, the scallops were our standout. The whole place has an effortless, relaxed energy and the service from the whole team was warm and attentive - Drew in particular was brilliant. We had such a good time we booked again for the following night (which they happily fitted us in for despite being booked out).

My interpretation is “making fine dining accessible,” which came through in a few ways: Staff were friendly and relaxed. Still professional with the detail orientation and servicing of fine dining, but without the formalities. For example, they timed the food according to my pace, but didn’t make this obvious. In a break, they even shared a service dish. Ambience reflects this. The open kitchen is small, with friendly, non-intimidating vibes. Details like both still water and sparkling water being on “tap” (free) in a pub-esque feel seems to be intentional. Lastly, the food is not overly complex. Flavors come through without too much layering, but still hits texture, temperature, and finish. For example, the duck dish created variety by having breasts, liver pate, and confit. Bu flavors were honest, and simple. Overall, great, accessible version of fine dining. Ordering many appetizers with drinks seems like a good fit for this one.

I have been to many many restaurants in London, however, food wise, this takes the win. I would recommend to go all out in the starters, and then use the main just to fill up on at the end. The bread and butter is the most surprisingly delicious and simple course I’ve ever had. The muscle bread was amazing, the oysters were great. The only issue was the tables are extremely close together, and we could hear the entire questionable discussion of the table next to us
