Cloth

Cloth occupies one of London’s most historic addresses in Farringdon, where cobbled streets and ancient architecture meet thoughtful, ingredient-driven cooking. Set within a Grade II-listed building that survived the Great Fire, the space whispers with heritage, from its low ceilings and marble-topped tables to the antique wall lights that lend a soft glow to the elegant interior. This modern British bistro, led by chef Tom Hurst (formerly of Brawn and Lasdun), centres its identity around seasonal produce and subtle French flourishes. The result is a menu that shifts with the market, highlighting refined yet comforting dishes that reflect a confident and restrained kitchen philosophy. With its curated wine list—shaped by the expertise of its founders, both seasoned wine importers—Cloth is a haven for those who appreciate a thoughtful pairing alongside their plate. The setting lends itself beautifully to romantic evenings or sophisticated weekday lunches, often described as relaxed fine dining in the truest sense. Farringdon locals and culinary explorers alike are drawn to the intimate charm of this neighbourhood favourite, with service that balances formality and warmth. Open for lunch and dinner Monday to Friday, Cloth sometimes offers seasonal specials, making each visit feel like a unique chapter in its evolving story
