Pilpel - (Near City of London, london)

Edward Katia “Katie” I was invited there for dinner by my daughter, and we went together. From the outside the location isn’t particularly striking, but once you step inside it’s a completely different world. You enter through a narrow little passage and a small door, only to discover a spacious and beautiful interior — a wine bar, great food, a lovely atmosphere, excellent service, and friendly staff. I enjoyed the place immensely.

hare super Stopped by CORD on Fleet Street for a weekday lunch and honestly didn’t expect it to be this busy — or this good. I always assumed people around here would just grab a quick sandwich, but the dining room was full of City workers actually taking their time and enjoying a proper meal. The space is beautifully designed. You walk in through a casual café area, then further inside it opens up into a calm, elegant dining room. The open kitchen is a great touch — you can see everything happening, which makes the whole experience feel very transparent and relaxed. Food-wise, everything we ordered was spot on. The A5 Wagyu and bluefin tuna starters were delicate and full of flavour. For mains, the BBQ monkfish was perfectly cooked and the Highland venison en croûte was rich and comforting without being heavy. The peanut soufflé to finish was light, warm and absolutely worth the wait. It’s rare to find a restaurant of this level right in the middle of the City. If you work nearby and want to slow down for once — whether for a long lunch, a business meal or a quiet date — CORD is well worth a visit.

Jeavon Moo-Young We (wife and I) went to the Leonardo St Paul’s recently… The lady Kathleen who welcomed us at reception with welcome drinks and then later we saw her in the executive lounge was so friendly and informative without being to intrusive she was fantastic and kind… the group of hotels we have been in before and as usual, it was a great get away from home to have night away… spa was good and we were in the executive room so it went down well with the wife…. Well worth the get away and easy to get to from Blackfriars tube station

Jen Pallister Genuinely amazing experience. I am only back in the UK for a few days and my brother recommended this place to me. Wonderful service and exceptional food. I had whitebait to start and then a 7 oz rump with chips and peppercorn sauce. Truely divine and perfectly cooked. I also want to thank them for asking about my allergies and clearly marked my plates with a red dot and checked if I was ok with cross contamination due to the ingredient I am allergic to being in the kitchen. Fab experience. Id come back next time Im in the area.

Y. Amazing Indian food packed with flavours! Love that they use fresh curry leaves in the soft crab dish, which also came with a small spicy aromatic dip. The beef marrow biryani was the best biryani I have ever had! Everything on the menu looked delicious! Service was excellent, waiters were kind, attentive and friendly! London has many good Indian options, this is def one of my top choices for the category of food..

Laura R Lovely resturant with tons of tasty choices! Everyone thoughtfully plated and delicious! Our server was friendly and the atmosphere chic and festive! Highly recommend!!
