10 Things to Do in London in the Summer & Where to Eat Nearby

"If you’re playing tennis on Clapham Common, the winner can buy lunch at Upstairs (at Trinity) — a nice local lunchtime reward." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team

"Joy and generosity are the tent-poles of this casual sharing plates restaurant situated above its slightly more formal and luxurious sibling. The open-plan kitchen is the focus of the intimate dining room, where everyone sits at high tables and the sound of good cheer fills the air. The visually appealing dishes are packed with distinct, hugely satisfying flavours; many are cooked over fire, like terrific Cornish squid with chickpeas and saffron aioli. Pricing is fair and the service is charming." - Michelin Inspector

Brilliant restaurant sitting atop Trinity. The more relaxed eatery of the venue with tranquil views out onto the common, a perfect option for a summer dinner. The food was excellent with great sharing options from oysters to monkfish. The service was top tier and stood out to me due to Jack's (our waiter) impeccable service and kind demeanor. Personal highlight from the night was the BBQ lamb belly squewers which were succulent and flavoursome. Overall a fantastic experience and a great option for a summer day.

Went here for my birthday and they had written me a card — such a sweet gesture! The staff were lovely and made me feel so welcome. I had a seat by the window on a beautiful day. The food was delicious and of high quality.

Hands down, one of the nicest dining experiences we had in London this year! London is densely packed with restaurants, therefore it is difficult to offer something that would set you apart from the crowd. Yes, this restaurant checks all the boxes. The staff is really excellent! They were professional, competent, yet friendly, and they made us feel extremely special! The dishes, cooked right in front of you by two amazing chefs, were really delicious!! We loved every single dish, including the tuna, vitello, croquettes, and seabass. Seriously, this is a great restaurant! Hats off to the entire team; they were fantastic! Jack and Dennis, just to mention a few!

A delightful restaurant with an eclectic menu. Really impressive and informative staff who do not hassle, but who were polite and attentive. Food highlights the croquettes, they were so good we ordered again. The tuna was flavourful but light and the salmon rillettes did not disappoint. The only downer was not being able to have a bottle of wine. £50 minimum is just a no. Will definitely consider going back when the menu changes for autumn.

Exceeded my relatively high expectations. Service was excellent throughout our meal with very attentive and friendly staff. The seasonal menu was top quality. Monkfish for main course was the highlight. Good value for the quality and nice wines by the glass for a reasonable price. Would go back!

Had suuuuch a lovely birthday meal here! Food was delicious, pretty decor, but most of all the service and all the staff were so lovely and helpful and friendly, it really made our evening special. When we ordered food we weren't sure if we were ordering the right amount, and they advised us it might be a little too much (a refreshing change from restaurants just trying to encourage us to spend money), and they were NOT wrong! We were absolutely stuffed, and everything we ate was fantastic. Would particularly recommend the gazpacho, the halibut ceviche, and the corn on the cob with seaweed butter. The staff were always available and very happy to tell us more about the menu and answer any questions, but they were never overly invasive and still left us to enjoy our meal. Honestly the best and nicest service I can remember in a restaurant. Will definitely be going back, I look forward to trying more of the menu!

Came by for dinner the other night with super high expectations as it sits on top of Trinity, a Michelin 1 star. Opted for Upstairs as it seemed like a simpler version for dinner as a Michelin Bib Gourmand. Unlike Trinity on the street level, Upstairs was merely air-cooled, which made it for a sweaty and uncomfortable dining experience, even with all the windows fully open. There was an air conditioner that was switched off.. Service from the staff was decent when they were available. It seemed like they were short and only had 2 front of the house staff for the entire restaurant... Staff was able to guide me with suggestions which was helpful. Started the meal off with the black pudding fritters with walnut ketchup and it was lightly fried. I'm not sure I was a fan of black pudding though. Moved on to the devilled crab mayonnaise with little gem lettuce and I also didn't quite understand the dish. I saw little bits of crab inside the mayonnaise but didn't quite understand how it complemented the little gem lettuce?!? Did the BBQ octopus special and was surprised by the huge portion of 2 tentacles. The sauces that complemented the octopus was the highlight of this course. The octopus itself was odd, the skin was on the thicker side and the inside was mushy?!? Ended the meal off with the poached doughnut peaches, peach syllabub and this was the highlight of the meal. The peach syllabub was very light and fluffy. More importantly, it wasn't too sweet. The poached doughnut peaches were excellent. Courses on other tables looked tasty...perhaps I ordered the wrong items? ~£50/head after GST & Service.
