From Clerkenwell to Fitzrovia

Saturday, March 09th , 2024

 

Sessions Arts Club (pictured) is set in a historic former courthouse in Clerkenwell and has a striking dining room with very high ceilings, lots of natural light and a rotating art exhibition. It also has a new chef as of a few weeks ago and delivered an enjoyable meal of sharing plates at a recent lunch. A silky truffle risotto was the highlight of the food, but the room is arguably the star. 

North Sea is a long-established fish restaurant between Euston and Russell Square. There is a wider menu on offer than a regular chippie, but I enjoyed the classic haddock and chips, which was a cut above what you might expect in London, which has always been oddly short of good fish and chip options.
