Moro

Moro has stood proudly on Exmouth Market since 1997, offering a spirited celebration of Mediterranean cuisine with bold Spanish and North African influences. Created by husband-and-wife team Sam and Sam Clark, this neighbourhood favourite is known for its wood-fired cooking, a buzzing open kitchen, and an atmosphere full of life and character. Inside, zinc-topped bars and rustic timber floors evoke a relaxed elegance, while the scent of slow-roasted meats and heady spices drifts from the flames. Moro’s enduring appeal lies in its dedication to honest flavours and thoughtful cooking, inspired by years of travel and a deep affection for Moorish food traditions. A mainstay of London’s dining scene, Moro continues to impress critics and regulars alike with dishes that balance earthy depth and vibrant complexity. The energy of the room, the warmth of service, and the confidence of the kitchen combine for a dining experience that feels as relevant today as it did at its founding. Open for lunch and dinner Monday to Saturday and lunch on Sundays, it’s a destination for lovers of Mediterranean cuisine, with a lively open kitchen and wood-fired cooking at the heart of the experience.
