"Sometimes you need somewhere small and straightforward to escape to, which is where Parsons comes in. It’s a seafood restaurant in Covent Garden, away from the stress of Covent Garden. At this corridor of a restaurant, fresh catches are written on the walls and people happily tuck into oysters, chips, and other nice things. It’s a restaurant that really suits two people but can stretch to four—we’d recommend you book ahead if going for the latter. The seafood is lovely and simple, and the fish pie in particular is something you’ll regret agreeing to share." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, daisy meager
