This is probably the best restaurant in the Trafalgar Square area. It's always my go-to lunch spot whenever I visit the National Gallery. You can either stuff yourself silly on cheese and charcuterie - something I have done on many an occasion. Or you can enjoy a variety of small plates. Or you can go for a full-on three course meal. The food is modern, French-inspired and always delicious. Their wine list is vast, with a focus on France and Italy. However, you can also select a number of wines by the glass.
Terroirs is an easy place to enjoy a quick bite or to while away a number of hours in good conversation over great food and wine. My only gripe is that they seem to have increased their prices of late, but overall I can really recommend this restaurant to locals and tourists alike.
I love this place - one of my favourite places in London. Been going there for years and its a lot harder to get into but its still lovely. The wine is great and the food never short of great. Charcuterie board is a must.Great date place too.
Ben Adamo & Darren Smith from Wine and Vinyl have teamed up with Terroirs wine bar & restaurant in Charing Cross to put on "Wine and Music" evenings on the first Wednesday of every month in the cosy cellar space (£3 entry).
(N.B. The next #WineWednesday will be in September)
To kick off the series, on the hottest day of the year, Ben & Darren put together a set list drawing from the sound tracks of cult movies such as Pulp Fiction and Full Metal Jacket, whilst classic wine moments from film history were projected on to the walls.
A condensed version of Terroirs’ 200 bin wine list has been carefully compiled for the event, showcasing five whites and five reds by the bottle as well as ten wines by the glass and a couple of bottles of sparkling. It's a quirky list with a real range of styles on offer - Amphibolite Nature, Jo Landon was ideal for the 36° heat, as was the Magnum of Casa Coste Piane Prosecco, whilst the Pinot Blanc, Gerrard Shueller is a must for sour beer fans.
Head Chef, Dale Osbourne, has put together a seasonally-focused tapas menu, comprising a selection of Terroirs’ signature dishes. I was really impressed with all of our plates, but particularly the Jamón de Bellota, Salt Croquetas & Aioli, Snails on Toast with Garlic, Parsley & Bacon and the unusual Black Pudding & Beets.
It's a great date spot, especially on Wine & Music Wednesdays - check @Terroirs on Twitter for #WineWednesdays updates.
