Tucked away in Barbican with a cosmopolitan lakeside setting, Wood Street Bar and Restaurant is a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle for London's city workers. The restaurant's New-York-steak-house vibe and old-school private booths make it conducive to discreet working lunches and after-work drinks and dinner with friends. The kitchen, headed up by Neil Walker, boasts an assured menu described as 'British with various Mediterranean influences'. Favourite dishes include the tempura soft shell crab with dipping sauce; 28 day aged rib-eye with butternut squash and potato gratin, watercress and Bearnaise sauce, and the whole rasted sole with chips and tartare sauce. The sensational Sunday roasts at the Wood Street Bar and Restaurant are legendary.
Average Price per person: £25 - £34
