Sessions Arts Club

Sessions Arts Club brings together food, art, and atmosphere in spectacular fashion within the restored walls of an 18th-century courthouse in Clerkenwell. The setting is unforgettable—grandeur softened by candlelight, faded crimson hues, and velvet drapery—where seasonal Modern European dishes are served beneath lofty ceilings adorned with works by contemporary artists. With its rooftop terraces, wood-panelled chambers, and semi-open kitchen, this is an artistic sanctuary as much as a restaurant, inviting guests to linger, observe, and dine in style. The menu is grounded in elegant simplicity, allowing ingredients to shine, with a strong focus on seasonal British produce and a warm, curated service ethos. Critics have praised Sessions Arts Club not only for its visual splendour but also for its beautifully restrained cooking and calm, transportive atmosphere. This is a destination where art and dining coexist gracefully, ideal for special occasions or a romantic night out. Guests can expect carefully composed dishes that echo the venue’s refined, creative spirit—vegetarian options are seamlessly integrated into the à la carte menu. Open for lunch Tuesday to Saturday and dinner Monday to Saturday, the venue sometimes runs seasonal promotions or artist-led events that enhance the experience even further.
