Seasonal British fare served a la carte & set suppers
"There are two superlative-laden white-walled British restaurants around Shoreditch. One is St. John Bread And Wine—which is a little fancy but utterly unfussy—and the other is Lyle’s, which is both fancy and fussy when it comes to food. The menu reads simply—razor clams and tomatoes, fore rib and onions—but every ingredient at Lyle’s is turned up to the max and dishes are the centre of attention in the industrial space. That said, lunch is our favourite time to eat here, when sunlight streams through the warehouse windows." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager

"A laid-back restaurant with cleverly composed dishes that are a joy to eat." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
"This handsome, minimalist, blond wood-and-concrete Shoreditch restaurant is a marriage of its co-owner James Lowe’s British heritage (St. John Bread & Wine) and his many stints across the globe, including one at Noma. Lowe is a gifted chef and one of London’s foremost proponents of quality British produce. His relaxed brand of fine dining regularly celebrates mutton, game, and goat, as well as wood-fired seafood and seasonal English vegetables." - Adam Coghlan
"The pared-down, ersatz-industrial look of the restaurant gains extra animation from the open kitchen, while warmth and personality come courtesy of the delightful service team. The dishes may appear to be as unadorned as the room, but don’t be fooled – they are technically accomplished, cleverly composed and boast plenty of depth and sophistication. The excellent ingredients – be that red mullet or mutton – provide flavours that are clean, unadulterated and a joy to experience. There’s a set menu at dinner; for lunch there’s an array of individually prices dishes." - Michelin Inspector
