"In the middle of a busy week, I decided to be a little naughty by jumping off the work for a few hours. A quick text to my friend and a finished customer meeting later, I was on my way to a lazy lunch. We had heard about the recent White Swan at Chancery Lane. Mr. Flavour and I were once regular and could not wait to see the new version. Unfortunately for him, he was gone in business, letting the ladies explore in his absence. This former irrigation hole was historically a popular hunt for the Fleet Street press brigade before turning into a Posh pub and dining room. Now again opened as a pub and cophouse, the locals are already coming in the queue. At the entrance we served the delicious flavors from the dining room on the upper floor. However, rule number one of boozy lunch dictates a freky G T must be consumed before eating one. Gin is something the white swan has in abundance! Our sophisticated bartender led us to a Hendrick's gin, served long and chilled with a cucumber band. That's the point! The new chophouse theme was certainly well preserved. The white tablecloths and wallpapers are replaced by trendy exposed brickwork and deep stained wooden tables. This beautiful room is available for private rentals and would be a great place to impress your friends or colleagues. The menu consists of pub favorites, cuts of British finest meat and fresh fish from South Coast Day boats and British fishing ports. If Mr. Flavour had been here, he would have made a hive for the 45-day White Park Sirloin with Béarnaise and big chips. We believed something easier. The salad baked Celeriac, Blue Monday cheese and Kale salad with chestnuts was divine and flavored with a beautiful earthy seasonality. My friend ordered Iron Age “Pick and brawn”, Pickles and English Senf, who came in the form of a terrine. I couldn't resist helping me to a greedy disaster. The Albarinho was certainly a suitable partner for the fish nets to follow. Fluffy fish cakes with peas tomato relish were mouth-watering crispy and burst with horror. I had never ordered Gurnard before and his fleshy texture was beautifully complemented with braided fennel. The big chips were absolutely smashed and made us dessert without room. As much as I enjoy a maid lunch, it's time like this when I miss my pretty man and his inexorable appetite. A quick espresso later I was returned to the office with a spring in my step and a very satisfied belly. I can't wait to introduce my customers to this wonderful new venue, available 7 days a week."

"this is my place for a meal, in the trendy and lively west hampstead high street. the menu offers a delicious selection of appetizers, Persian specialists, great steak options and various alternatives of world cuisine. chicken dishes such as chelo jooje kebab and baghali polo, which is served a persian special rice with broad bean and dill beside sea bass, are really good. for me, the Persian omelette is a special mention an amazing dish to their day with which they can dive with piping hot ciabatta. it is the place for them if they like traditional food with a great selection of texture and taste. the beverage menu is sturdy whether you want to enjoy your classic red and white wine, favorite cocktails or just with a little warm. camden hells, camden pale ale and pravha are on hahn. this is a family-run restaurant; and it is a good game for family meetings. the owner is warm and thoughtful, and he will check on the guests to ensure that their experience is pleasant. the personal is attentive and prompt. I see many families enjoy a weekend meal together, with additional lightness for young children as they have high chairs that help. in many places there are social encounters, pre-game meals and drinks on large days of play. it is also suitable for casual eating or an intimate couple of dinners. the restaurant has many masters who visit almost daily. they welcome pets with their own pet-friendly tables in the interior. indoors is a mix of thematic handmade artworks, handwritten characters and print. they can extend the day while they are on comfortable breast-sofas with their favorite drink in the hand relax, with cozy lighting through. their tables in front of the restaurant on the street get an amazing amount of suns on bright days; so much that I saw the people almost suns while enjoying a refreshing pint on the side, which also when they realize that the restaurant is very close to west end green park, which offers magnificent, relaxing green prospect in an urban scenery. it is important to remember that no business and certainly no restaurant is immaculate and any facility has bad days; slight delays and sleeping suits at very busy days are normal. the restaurant is located in a lively and narrow street, so that parking could be difficult. all this does not change the fact that they have a great time here, and I would recommend it as a beautiful place to go with friends, family and partner. try their steaks!"
