Grind - (Near City of London, london)

Tom I had dinner here with a colleague on a Monday night. It was relatively quiet but then the city always is on a Monday. The decor is very nice and there is lots of space so would be interesting to see the vibe of the place when it’s full. The small plates are essentially starters and we shared the pork bites and burnt ends between two and it was probably enough. The menu is interesting! For the mains my colleague had the ribeye and I had the fillet steak. We had a side of mash with gravy and also the loaded style chips. The steaks were delicious. Really tender and cooked to perfection. The meat was great. Really up there. Big shout out to the gravy mash combo too. That was immense. The service was efficient and felt a bit upsell a few times but again that’s the city for you. We stuck with what we wanted and it was seriously good. Would definitely go back. It’s not cheap but it’s worth it.

Chris Hinde Stopped by chance for breakfast and we’re not disappointed! Cosy, little intimate cafe set within the lobby of the Ned. Food was fantastic quality - we’d recommend the Malibu omelette. Some interesting alternative lattes on offer too, the beetroot cacao latte was inspired.

Robert Wong Great authentic Portuguese dishes served in the city. Was a bit pricier than expected, but a treat especially if you havent tried their unique flavours and twists. Recommend to book in advance otherwise expect to be seated at the counter or outside!

Mark Katzman Market Place Food Hall at St Pauls is a hidden gem in the heart of London! The moment you walk in, youre greeted by a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere and an incredible variety of food stalls offering flavours from around the world. Whether youre craving Thai noodles, Mexican tacos, Indian curries, Japanese sushi, or Mediterranean wraps, theres something here to satisfy every taste. The prices are refreshingly reasonable, especially for such a central location-perfect for lunch breaks, casual dinners, or spontaneous meetups. You get generous portions, great quality, and fast service without breaking the bank. What really stands out is the diversity of national cuisines under one roof. Its like taking a minii world tour through food, all in one stylish, modern space. The seating is comfortable, the vibe is upbeat, and the staff are friendly and hepful. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a delicious, affordable, and exciting dining experience in the City. Ill definitely be coming back!

Don R Campbell Warm welcome, informed and fun service accompanying the authentic food. 4 of us all very much enjoyed our food. In fact, our vegetarian friend said "This is the best arrabbiata I have enjoyed in my 60yrs." The veal was superb, subtle flavours, light breading. The salmon piece as a main was large and done to perfection (not overcooked as it often can be). The gluten free pasta (penne) portion was large and done very well. When in this neighborhood again, well return to try some of their other options. We sat upstairs, its cozy, comfortable and the glass ceiling added to the ambience

w z Had breakfast here for few days. Loved the foods, coffee, everything and the famous bagel from Beigel Bake Brick Lane is here too! Everyone was so nice, attentive and friendly. Always feels welcomed. Thanks again to Karim for the lovely service.
