"Bloomsbury’s Noble Rot is good at many things: slip sole, for one, and dropping cortisol levels for another, so of course it’s A/C’d up. This place is a life-saver, not least when your face is rapidly turning into an animated slice of cheese on toast. Head to this charming wine bar and European-leaning restaurant when you need cold air, cold wine, and sh*t-hot focaccia." - jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
