Welcome to SKÅL Nordic Dining - the neighbourhood Nordic restaurant located in a Grade II listed building at 149 Upper Street - a well-known address for high quality Scandinavian food and drink. Our restaurant SKÅL, meaning ‘Cheers’ in Swedish, opened on the 2nd of December 2019. We serve traditional Nordic recipes but with a modern, seasonal twist - all underpinned by the term 'husmanskost' meaning traditional home cooked Swedish food. Clean, earthy, minimalist interiors set the tone for our customers dining experience with whitewashed walls, wooden table tops and piles of logs stacked up in front of the open kitchen to fuel the grill. An authentic yet eclectic selection of starters and small plates plus main dishes and sides fill our menu at SKÅL. We aim to tick the box for play-safe Westernised taste buds to the more well-travelled adventurous and advanced palates. Our drinks come in the form of homemade Aquavits, high-quality wines and cocktails with a Nordic twist.

Having spent years supplying London’s top restaurants through their separate wine businesses, Joe Haynes and Benedict Butterworth have joined forces with Tom Hurst, who has worked at Brawn, The Marksman, Levan, and most recently as Head Chef at Lasdun, to launch the trio’s first restaurant together.Located in a Grade II listed building on Cloth Fair, Cloth Restaurant is part of a historic row of buildings in the City of London that survived the Great Fire of 1666. Down this atmospheric alley opposite St Bartholomew church, Cloth is taking over a double fronted corner site that’s beneath the former home of poet John Betjeman and next door to the two oldest residential buildings in London. Inside, low ceilings, wood floorboards with antique wall lights and artwork create a cosy, intimate atmosphere, while marble tables, long dark wood banquettes, antique crockery and cutlery will create the feel of a classic bistro.

The George Public House is a Victorian reincarnation of a 15th century coffee house located at the meeting point of the Strand and Fleet Street, directly facing the spectacular architecture of the Royal Courts of Justice and a 10 minute walk from the West End. In the Autumn of 2014, The George underwent an extensive and considerate refurbishment of the ground floor bar and first floor dining room. This saw the creation of an elegant and sophisticated restaurant; The George. We have carefully retained the original features of this historic pub and have tastefully added our own stamp while keeping a traditional feel throughout.The restaurant upstairs at The George is open all week and offers an exciting, modern British menu, using only the finest seasonal, local produce, as well as fantastic roasts on Sundays.We are currently offering the same menu in both the pub and the restaurant.

Absolutely delightful and totally delicious food. Each dish was superb. We were a group of three and shared pickles, artichoke with ricotta, and burrata with raisins . Yummy. The mains we had were ravioli filled with pheasant, mushrooms and Marsala. Divine. I’d go back just for that. We shared a rhubarb trifle with honeycomb for dessert. Again, delicious. The service was calm and friendly. Unobtrusive. There was very low music playing so we could hear each other and chat for hours. The interior design was very English, reminding us of Andrew Edmund’s in town. We loved it. A bit pricey but I did not mind for this special occasion as it was all pretty wonderful.

Lovely place with gorgeous food. Perhaps a little understaffed on the night although the staff we did meet were really friendly and helpful and the food came quickly once we’d ordered. Five stars!!
