1 Lombard Street - The Brasserie Description

1 lombard street restaurant

This buzzing traditional Brasserie with a Modern European slant, serves food all day from breakfast till closing, with a full à la carte menu, selections of reasonably priced set menus and an extensive wine list. The high glass domed ceiling that looms above the bar area of this former banking hall makes for an impressive place to meet for drinks or indulge in the authentic tapas menu, before moving on to either the Brasserie or, for rather grander dining, the Restaurant.

Beneath the kindly light of the large glass dome breakfast is served in the Brasserie and, as well as the customary and more restrained dishes, such as porridge and the traditional English breakfast, there are eggs Benedictine, smoked haddock Monte Carlo, grilled kippers, grilled lamb kidneys diable, scrambled eggs with smoked salmon, and toast and butter with gentleman's relish, or if you are really gearing up for a big day the grilled rib eye steak with fried egg should do the trick. This has to be amongst the top flight of breakfast menus in London.

However the day progresses, so moving on to sterner stuff look for lunchtime starters of crab and prawn salad with Bloody Mary sorbet, tartare of yellowfin tuna with Thai aubergine caviar, or a delightful warm salad of duck confit, aided and abetted by Belgium endive and frizze salad in walnut oil vinaigrette. A straightforward fish soup is served with garlic bread and aioli to make a cold day seem suddenly warmer, and for those who like their penne, carbonara comes to their aid, served with raw organic egg yolk and parmesan.

From the sea, the menu can run to curried salmon fish cakes, or seared stone bass; a casserole of mussels and clams draws the line between a bisque and a fish stew, before taking a look at the true brasserie style items of bangers and mash or grilled calf's liver and bacon. But brasseries are place of indulgence where such dishes as roast suckling pig, a coq au vin 'bourguignon' made from black leg chicken are there for the temptation of those who think that life is too short for ignoring a little of what you really like.

Perhaps a sterner line should be drawn at the puddings where hot chocolate fondant competes with the likes of pear and blackberry crumble or warm goat's cheese dartois. Any wine list that can field 26 champagnes should command respect, particularly when combined with a house selection that leans towards the exotic.

Featured Group Restaurant

  • Nando's - SpitalfieldsNando's - Spitalfields With quality food, friendly staff, quick service and excellent value for money, Nando's is a great place to eat. Don't expect identikit, pre-fab restaurant interiors which are usually a staple of the larger chains; each restaurant is tailored to its local surroundings and customers, offering up a unique restaurant experience to go with the equally unique taste of legendary, Portuguese, Peri-Peri chicken.
