Bistro Union - (Near Lambeth, South East)

5 /5 Paul Forster: We had a great experience at Bistro Union. Our first visit to this neighbourhood eatery was for ‘Sunday Supper Club’. The menu was fixed which was just fine as all of the food offered was beautifully done. not pictured is the lamb neck and salad which was super tasty. Service was friendly and relaxed. Will definitely be back for eegular menu items in future.

5 /5 Katie Kim: I dined at this restaurant tonight and had a fantastic experience. The cozy, welcoming atmosphere made it perfect for a relaxing meal. We had the five-course meal, and the portions were surprisingly large, much more generous than at most places. Every dish was delicious, and the flavours truly impressed us. The service was excellent, making the whole experience even more enjoyable.

5 /5 James Hope: I was a bit apprehensive given the reviews, but after looking at the website, I decided to book. Im not disputing any of those people who had less-than-stellar reviews of the place, but our experience couldnt be further from the “poor” experiences of others. The staff were friendly and attentive. The gap between courses was perfect, and the food and wine were EXCELLENT. The sticky date pudding was possibly the best we’ve ever had. Just a lovely experience overall!

2 /5 Sav Kotecha: Can I be honest, I wanted to love this place. I love going to Trinity - its sister restaurant. But this is over priced average food. Genuinely would not recommend. We went on a Sunday, the roast was so average. And my friend got the blue cheese soufflé (labelled a “big plate”) and it was tiny portion for £28. The rosé was not drinkable. I could go on. Overall won’t be back and would suggest you try somewhere else.

5 /5 Marshall Manson: Ultra-pleasant neighbourhood spot on a quiet street with excellent food, attentive service, and a well-crafted wine list. It’s also the sister to Trinity, the Michelin-starred spot in Clapham Old Town. Both restaurants are helmed by Chef Adam Byatt. Bistro Union is a gem. It’s super comfortable — the kind of place you could happily settle in for an afternoon, as the gang in the bar were doing on the day we visited. There’s a straightforward menu of things that you’ll want to eat. You can go traditional — starter, main, dessert — or mix and match plates to share from snacks to bigger stuff. It’s flexible enough to fit any mood or occasion. We went a bit wild and did both. Snacks included delicious comté gougères and brown crab arancini. Homemade bread and whipped butter was so good that we asked for a second round. For starter, the chicken liver & foie gras parfait was Michelin quality, and the burrata la latteria with romanesco and chilli was like a bowlful of spring. Mains were rabbit in mustard sauce and duck confit. Both were perfectly done. The rabbit falling off the bone and the mustard sauce well balanced with sharpness and creaminess. We were too full for dessert. But Bistro Union really delivered — with fantastic bistro-style food and in bringing us together over their delicious dishes.
