London bridges finest places
Totally love this place! I stumbled across this restaurant by chance whilst exploring London bridge one evening with friends. We had just missed the opportunity to grab some seats in the outdoor cinema at The Scoop (part of More London Festival). Therefore we decided on going for a nice drink and something to eat as a few of us were peckish. Whilst walking in the rough direction back towards where we live we discovered this gem of a restaurant! The reason why we noticed it was it funky, cultural loud music. It seemed to be upbeat with a young vibe and so we decided to check it out! Otherwise it is actually quite hidden away and probably missed quite easily!
The courtyard area was pretty original with antique looking bikes, sofas and stools for people to sit on. It felt stylishly mishmashed come shabby chic, reflecting its french origin! We were approached by staff members, slightly hippified giving a chilled feeling to the place, no stress! They were very friendly and engaged with customers a lot! The menu was very french, even offering snails, however had a selection of attractive sharing boards i.e cheeses and meats and meals such as burgers and salmon. There was also a selection of interesting sides that sometimes aren't offered in restaurants such as a small side of ratatouille, green beans, chorizo and so on. I eventually ordered some fries and chorizo, even though I was relatively full, but I couldn't resist trying the food, it looked gorgeous! I also ordered a small glass of wine. The food I would say is okay value for money but the drinks are quite dear.
We were giving complimentary bread when the food arrived. I thoroughly enjoyed my side dishes and was left craving for more, especially the chorizo that I fancied for a few days after! My friend encountered a small problem with her salmon dish as it unfortunately had a hair in it. The staff dealt with it very nicely and offered to re-cook the meal although she ended up having some fries instead. Both were taken off of the bill at the end of the meal no issues.
The decor inside is equally original and enticing. All of the candles burning on the tables were left to drink down onto the table tops creating small mountains of red, blue and white wax. Quite beautiful as they were basically the only source of light, very romantic. There was also a wall on the way to the toilets covered in candle wax. I loved this theme, it was creative, simple and enhanced the restaurants originality and personality, very rustic.
I returned here again with my boyfriend on a Friday evening as I loved the experience so much last time I visited. It was equally as good but surprisingly a lot quieter than the Thursday night we went. Still we enjoyed a nice, relaxed drink after a pleasant evening together.
I will definitely return here having already spread the news about it to friends and family!
