LEON Ludgate - (Near City of London, london)

Pasado C What a loooovely time at this establishment. Went in to meet with some coworkers and really enjoyed the drinks, oysters, and food. We ended up staying quite a while. The decor and manager are very welcoming. What an upscale and fun spot for weekday nosh and catchup! Love that they let pups in.

John Downs Dinner for two on a quiet Thursday night. Very good food..the sole exceptional, the cottage pie delicious. The menu had a good mix of interesting dishes..."British" cuisine..in a very good way. Drinks reasonably priced for central London. Very close to Cannon Street station but tucked away off the main road, and below ground. Quirky decor that I found very appealing. Attentive service from staff who know their dishes. Note...not open at weekends...this is in the commercial part of town! Highly recommended for couples, small groups and business meetings (they seemed to have a projector screen discreetly concealed...so maybe good for small group lunchtime meetings).

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

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.

Florin Mihali Delicious sandwiches, the staff is very friendly and they pay attention to detail. Great value for money. Great variety, they all taste great!There is a bit of a queue at lunch time, which for me is a good sign always. Totally worth it!!!

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!!
