Kerridge's Bar & Grill

"The menu bears all the hallmarks of chef Tom Kerridge by focusing on British dishes and the best of British ingredients; good use is made of the rotisserie and maturing meats are on display. When it comes to glamour and grandeur, the huge room offers plenty of bang for your buck." - Michelin Inspector

"Harry Redknapp is a 70-something former football manager who also won I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. Harry Redknapp refers to food as ‘grub’. Harry Redknapp reads a menu by holding it high, leaning back, and squinting. Harry Redknapp rubs his hands together when food is put in front of him. Harry Redknapp is the essence of a grandad. Harry Redknapp is the kind of guy who would go to Kerridge’s, a hotel restaurant near Embankment. He’s the kind of guy would spend big money on beautified British classics: fish and chips, pie, chocolate pud. Why? Because Harry Redknapp knows how to treat himself, and that’s how you should treat your grandparents. (N.B. Yes, we once saw Harry Redknapp at Kerridge’s.)" - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing

"Today someone massaged your skull for you and you felt like a beloved pet cat. How could today possibly get any better? Kerridge’s Bar & Grill, that’s how. This huge, slightly broody restaurant near Embankment has oxblood leather booths, a statue of a gold suit in the middle of the dining room, is part of the Corinthia Hotel, and is definitely deserving of your new haircut. If you’re going all out, get the sharing lobster thermidor omelette that’s a casual £120. This place gets bonus points for having the kind of blindingly shiny cutlery that you can subtly check your hair out in every 10 seconds or so. Perfect." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Rianne Shlebak

"Search our Instagram long enough and you will find a frankly NSFW video of a very juicy pie from Kerridge’s. Sod it, here it is. This little pig cheek’s grenade is a juicy number and though it leans on the pricey side, the clotted cream mash with black pudding, and the jug of devilled sauce, make it a pie worth trying if you’re feeling flush (and it's on the menu)." - jake missing

"A place to loosen belts and bank balances, Tom Kerridge’s place at the Corinthia is all about comfort food classics turned up to 11. Prawn scotch egg comes rich with lobster satay sauce, each triple-cooked chip is something to savour and apple tart tatin is hard to share. A handy tip: the place does a good value menu du jour during weekday lunch and dinner Monday through Thursday. Stretchy pants still required." - Daisy Meager
