Rogues London is a series of pop-up restaurants created by Freddie Sheen and Zac Whittle.Each event is a blank canvas; each menu shaped hand in hand with season, location and sustainability, and each menu then torn down to start afresh. They also leave behind any pretence, instead focusing on creating beautifully crafted dishes in intimate environments where people can experience food at their most comfortable. And this characteristic is also present in Freddie and Zac – they’re not just the chefs of Rogues London. You’ll find them inside and outside the kitchen in equal measure, cooking and serving, greeting and talking. It’s personal for them and it’s personal for you.At its foundation, Rogues London is simply a small, tight knit group of friends working tirelessly at something they love, and who are every bit as passionate about sharing their obsession with others.

    Loved returning here, the food and service are excellent. It’s a small menu but it’s authentic and executed really, really well. The service is excellent and the menu and specials seafood is explained and any questions answered. Our most recent visit was a group of four, and we all loved it, and all rated it as some of the best food we’ve had in the area. It’s really reasonably priced too. All in all, a great experience and we’ll be back again in our next visit. The lemon cake is excellent!!

    I’ve eaten here on a few occasions now and each time it has been a delightful experience, not to mention the food they serve is picture perfect and delicious! This time I brought a few of my friends as part of a jolly, the ambiance was perfect, the Christmas decor was out in full glory and the once again the food was exceptional, in particular the braised Herefordshire beef orgasmic! Clos Maggiore was brimming with customers, so much so we had to wait a little for our table. However by way of compensation we were treated to a really delicious glass of Prosecco which successfully sweetened the deal. My only niggle was that the sommelier was a little busy which meant the experience of timing the wine to the plate wasn’t spot on but in fairness the restaurant was packed! So overall we all had a really lovely time!

    What a very, very special evening we had last night at Mr Chow. The food was delicious, impeccable, faultless; the wines delicious. The service however must really take pride of place. I had forgotten what it's like to be served so wonderfully professionally - and my party were in full agreement. Sadly, it is very rare these days to have restaurant service from people who take pride in their work and ensuring that guests have a good time. Yes, Mr Chow is expensive, but like the ad says - it's worth it.
