Awesome(78)

Price: Expensive

• British • Bloomsbury

Ah, there really is nothing more wonderfully British than a nice cup of tea and an opportunity to put your feet up, something the folk at London’s Tea and Tattle know only too well. Situated under the atmospherically delightful Arthur Probsthain Oriental and African Bookseller (est. 1903 no less), Tea and Tattle is a very English escape from the stiff upper lips of the busy streets above. Painted in a bright white, the room is light and airy despite its subterranean location, one wall featuring hand-painted Chinese wallpaper, others eclectic art works, some of course related to the business of bookselling. Calling itself a ‘traditional tea room with a modern cultural twist’, Tea and Tattle specialises in that indulgent favourite, the afternoon tea. It’s a must for tourists and locals in need of a relaxing hour away from the office alike but for those needing something more practical to eat, there’s also a good range of high quality sandwiches, cakes and scones.

A pleasant late lunch with friends, we chose this restaurant as it seemed to be a relaxing quiet environment in lovely surroundings which it certainly lived up to We were hoping to book the fixed price lunch menu but this seemed very difficult through the one table app so ended up with the a la carte which was fine, generally enjoyed by all

We went here for Sunday brunch and really enjoyed our meal. There is quite an extensive menu - brunch dishes, a Sunday Roast, or more traditional dishes like fish and chips or burgers. It had a nice, buzzy atmosphere and quick and efficient service. Originally we were seated at very low table and chairs, but we asked to be moved, which wasn't a problem. I don't know how anyone would want to sit on such a low seat unless you are less than 5 feet tall, but clearly, some people don't mind! Overall, it was a great experience, and we will go again.

Having been twice in as many weeks shows the quality of Bloomsbury Street Kitchen. Mediterranean/Japanese fusion is exciting and the food lives up to this hype. From sashimi to gnocchi, tempura to rigatoni, everything is very flavourful and delicious. Smiley staff makes everything better
