What they say:
With an interior designed by renowned architects David Collins Studio. The result is a sophisticated decor, with elements inspired by vintage car design and an art-deco element style. The menu put together by Jamie Dobbin, former head chef of the Ivy Club, features a merge of US, European and Asian cooking styles. Ingredients are locally sourced like the meat from Lake District farmers and seafood from Billingsgate Market just meters from the restaurant door, ensuring the most fresh produce and highest quality. The drinks menu has a focus on the Negroni and G&T which both take centre stage in an extensive drinks menu, along with a vast inventory of wines viewable by tablet. There is also a selection of 46 rare and delicious whiskies that are well worth exploring. With a 30-cover bar and a 100-cover restaurant and a mezzanine floor, One Canada Square is idea for business lunches, sumptuous dinners and long lazy lunches.
What we say:
This place has a lot to offer. Not only can you explore an extensive wine list by scrolling through a tablet but you can order many by the glass, allowing you to taste some of premium quality wines without buying the bottle. It doesn't end there though, as the phenomenal food menu sees such instant classics as crab ravioli, salt baked Yorkshire red grouse and 45 day aged Cumbrian Shorthorn steaks. The cocktails on the menu all receive a modern spin, with the classic G&T boosted with premium gin brands and a dash of cardamom and coriander while the humble Negroni gets a kick of personality through a variety of different garnishes, vermouths and gins. Grab a drink from the cocktail trolley or order some food at the bar for a great selection of stateside nibbles including hot dogs porcini and gorgonzola arancini, or shrimp and bacon croquettes.
