The Fable - (Near City of London, london)

Lisa Moore A traditional pub in the City. We had toasties, which were fab. The staff were friendly and the service was great. Nice atmosphere but it was very quiet for a Thurs lunchtime.

Shanaz Set in an old bank building just off Exmouth Market, this place is super cool in an understated way. We booked counter seats to watch the chefs in action - not the comfiest, but in keeping with the building’s style (loved the drawer storage for cutlery and menus!). The food was excellent, especially the mussel pil pil which is a must-try along with salted cod churros. Beautifully presented dishes and really attentive service throughout. They even moved us to a table when they noticed my friend was uncomfortable, which was much appreciated. Would happily return.

Inger Margrete Hansen Where do I even begin? After years on my list, Sessions Arts Club more than lived up to the anticipation. Set within the grand rooms of the Old Sessions House, the space itself feels steeped in memory — high ceilings, history in the walls, and a sense that time moves differently once you’re inside. The duck pâté and cheese platter were standouts, rich and deeply satisfying, and beautifully matched with an exceptional wine selection. It’s clear that wine here is not an afterthought but a philosophy. Their Lost Wines series captures that perfectly: bottles rescued from forgotten cellars, restored with care, and given a second life. Knowing that the glass in front of you carries a story, only deepens the experience. A truly special evening — and one I’m already planning to repeat.

Sophie Bruxner-Randall Omg I LOVE this place. Didn’t have a reservation on a Saturday night but the waitress put us on the waitlist and sat us outside with some happy hour beers and dumplings. Once we got inside, we had so much fun and all the food was great. It’s a fun lively atmosphere and the food and cocktails are so reasonable priced. No frills, just brilliant food and a great time.

Steve Gannon Great food and of course, an amazing choice of beer - bottles and on tap. The table service is fantastic, as soon as you near the bottom of the glass they’re taking your next order.

Heike Munro I was a little bit concerned about a fine dining experience in tooting which turned out to be brilliant. Table & Candle have a great concept, the chef Phillippe Sonou was incredible, the food delicious and the wine pairing worked well. Samantha was an amazing host. Thank you for a wonderful evening. We hope to come to another event. Thank you.
