🇬🇧 London | After Eating at Clipstone

How has this gem stayed so under the radar?! 🤯 Open for 9 years, this is the sister restaurant of Michelin-starred Portland and 64 Goodge Street. With its warm wooden interiors and impeccable vibes, every dish is as beautiful as it is delicious—from snacks to desserts, everything shines. The flavors, ambiance, and service are all absolute perfection. After eating here, I just want to scream from the rooftops about it! 📢 🍞 Pre-meal sourdough with olive oil, plus Pig's head croquettes—the ultimate boozy snack. 🍷 🥗 Stracciatella, Italian courgette & lemon balm Three-colored zucchini paired with creamy stracciatella cheese and lemon balm, plus thinly sliced pickled cucumbers for a refreshing crunch. 🌿 🐟 House-cured Chalk Stream trout, dill, rhubarb & crème fraîche Cured trout with French crème fraîche, dill, and rhubarb—so good it’ll make you weak in the knees. 😍 🦀 Brixham crab, white asparagus, hollandaise & toasted sourdough The toasted sourdough soaks up all the crab and asparagus goodness. (Heads up: The crab salad has coriander—ask to omit if you’re not a fan!) 🦀 🐂 Highland beef tartare, cornichons, egg yolk & crisps This isn’t your average tartare! The beef is seared before chopping, giving it a smoky Maillard crust while staying tender. Mixed with pickles and grated egg yolk, it’s rich yet bright. 🔥 🍴 Fresh tagliatelle, rocket & Parmesan pesto, cashew & ricotta CARB LOVERS, ORDER THIS. 🥹 The pesto is unreal—nutty, cheesy, herby perfection. 🐟 Cornish mackerel, tomato dashi, fennel & monk’s beard Grilled mackerel in a umami-packed tomato broth, with wild greens that taste like sea asparagus. 🌊 🥭 Alphonso mango, coconut & chantilly Sweet mango, passionfruit, coconut, and cream—a tropical dream. 🌴 🍰 Santiago tart & poached loquats Almond cake with poached loquats and a hint of floral sweetness. Divine. ✨ 📍 Clipstone 5 Clipstone St, London W1W 6BB #LondonHiddenGems #LondonRestaurants #LondonFoodGuide #LondonMustEat #LondonDining
