Since it is also bar there is quite an extensive cocktail list. [[Billy]] had a Manhattan(£6.95) which he described as almost as good as the ones he makes himself. Steve had a litre bottle Duvel (£10.50) - one of only two (?) non-lagers - which he found to be quite good. We also had a decent enough bottle of Malbec for £18. They brought us 2 jugs of iced tap water when asked.

[[bob]] had some really good calamari(£5.95) to start. The flesh was cooked was just right. The batter was light. Tentacles are always fun. Phil and Steve had the chicken satay(£5.95). This was quite a large piece of chicken with quite a decent spicy peanut sauce, although a little dry for Steve's tastes. [[Billy]] had Beef Carpaccio(£7.50). [[elvum]] had a hot mushroom salad(£5.95)

Bar and Grill just south of Smithfield Market.

bob, elvum, billy, Steve and Phil visited on a Thursday evening in January. The bar and restaurant were full when we turned up at 20:30. Thankfully we had booked a table. This was so we could take advantage of the 50% off January sale on food.

Since it is also bar there is quite an extensive cocktail list. Billy had a Manhattan(£6.95) which he described as almost as good as the ones he makes himself. Steve had a litre bottle of Duvel (£10.50) which he found to be quite good. We also had a decent enough bottle of Malbec for £18. They brought us 2 jugs of iced tap water when asked.

We had some acceptable bread(£2.75) and olives(£2.75) while deciding what to have.

bob feels it was really good at 50% off. At full price it would have been fine. Although the space was noisy and cramped and there was live music later. A guy playing 90s indie hits on guitar.
