Quality Wines - (Near City of London, South East)

Libor Koláčný I arrived at Fare expecting a round pizza. A simple, predictable disc. Instead, they brought me this... this enormous, folded, tomato-bleeding leather pouch. It looked like a giant’s lost slipper. My colleagues laughed. "You’ll never finish that," they whispered, as if I hadnt spent years training for this very moment. Poor fools. I attacked the Calzone like a man with a grudge. Prosciutto, mushrooms, cheese—everything tucked inside like a delicious secret. It was a breeze. In fact, it was so easy I had to jump over and finish my colleagues Quattro Formaggi just to feel something. My stomach was 90% dough, I could barely move, and I’ve never been happier. Top marks.

Fernanda Whately The location is the perfect great gatsby expectation. However it is Jazz who make the magic comes true! He is the mixologist that made the hole experience magic, suggesting the best drinks to our taste. And he did it not one but tee times! With perfect drink suggestions. If you’re around, you should come!!

Pam Probably the best pho I’ve ever had! The monkfish pho came with a rich seafood broth infused with tomato, a hint of chilli, and Vietnamese fish sauce. The monkfish was perfectly fried and soaked up the broth beautifully — every bite felt like a harmony of flavours. We also tried the chicken pho, made with the vegetarian broth (you can also choose beef). The soup was wonderfully seasoned with layers of vegetable flavours that made it incredibly comforting and flavourful. The restaurant has two floors and is usually packed during meal times. Seating is quite close together, so it can get a bit noisy. The lower ground floor is less ventilated, so if you arrive early, I recommend sitting on the ground floor. Overall, the food is fantastic and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be coming back! P.S. Prices do not include service charge.

Darsha D Coming here requires a bit of strategy. You don’t just turn up casually. Either don’t eat all day or arrive with the appetite of a small army. I’m not kidding. The place itself is stunning, full of old school charm. The Bloody Mary was, appropriately, bloody good. And the food? Divine. One of the best Sunday roasts I’ve had in a long time. The Yorkshire pudding was a proper “oh my god” moment, the gravy was rich and glorious, and everything else from the meat to the veggies (do not miss the potatoes like everyone mentions!) was spot on. The only tragedy of the day was that I couldn’t finish my plate, which felt like a personal failure. Honestly, just go already.

Tom Popped into this place last Friday (early march) and had no booking. It was bus but managed to get a seat at the bar. I had toast with pate to start and a vegetarian main. Think it was sweet potato with pecorino over the top. Something like that. Both dishes were delicious and left me wanting more so I ordered tiramisu for dessert. Equally yummy. The foods clearly great here but what I liked most was the atmosphere and the vibe. It’s dimly lit and still vibrant. Noisy but in a good way. Staff are vigilant and quick. Wine was also good! I loved my meal here and I’m 100% going to go back. Probably more than once.

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.
