The 5 Best Restaurants Near The Barbican - London - The Infatuation
"One of the great (and short) London journeys you can make is from the Barbican’s martini bar to Trattoria Brutto’s £5 Negroni. Booze is by no means the only reason you should be visiting this gorgeous Tuscan trattoria in Farringdon but, frankly, it’s a bloody good reason to get you through the door. Everything else will likely make you stay. Be it the anchovies with cold butter and St. John sourdough, to the pink, charred bistecca alla Fiorentina. If there’s only one steak left on that blackboard, you should very much be ordering it. Look, this isn’t New York. Nobody wants to eat dinner at 10pm, so get organised. Reservations are released 14 days in advance at 9:30am and, if that doesn’t come off, push notifications for cancellations are recommended. That said, Brutto’s bar is one of the best around. Walk in and linger with a Negroni." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
