Clipstone: Elegant, Seasonal Dining in Fitzrovia's Sunlit Corner
Clipstone brings refined charm and quiet confidence to a sunlit corner of Fitzrovia. Opened in 2016 by the team behind Portland and Quality Chop House, this modern European restaurant exudes the spirit of a true neighbourhood favourite, blending contemporary style with culinary depth. Executive Chef Chris Bassett and Head Chef Clara Albano oversee a kitchen producing a daily-changing menu shaped by peak-season ingredients. Whether seated indoors amidst the pared-back aesthetic and lively open kitchen or enjoying the covered outdoor terrace, guests can expect elegant, veg-forward dishes that shift seamlessly between classic technique and unexpected flavour combinations. A la carte offerings are joined at lunch by a well-priced set menu, while Sundays invite a more traditional rhythm with roast-style ‘Sunday Specials’ served alongside regular options. Dishes like whipped ricotta-stuffed courgette flowers and venison tartare with goat’s cheese crisps showcase the kitchen’s confident creativity. Service is warm and genuine, while the bar’s selection of Pet Nats and orange wines complements the relaxed fine dining experience. Still going strong after eight years, Clipstone is the kind of quietly brilliant place that earns its praise through consistency, seasonality, and soul. Open for lunch and dinner Tuesday to Sunday, it remains a beloved Fitzrovia destination.
