Describing itself as "A Neighbourhood Restaurant Championing British Food", Hereford Road is at the top end of the gastro pub genre. Tom Pemberton, formerly head chef at the sainted St. John Bread and Wine, serves up a daily changing menu - which you can check on the front page of their website www.herefordroad.org each morning. So in autumn, when game season is in full swing, you get grey leg partridge with savoy cabbage and bacon or British oysters (as long as the month has an 'r' in it) followed by delicious homemade desserts like rhubarb sorbet and poached fig meringue using late summer fruits. In the summertime, however, its butcher's window - this used to be a butcher's in Victorian times - opens onto the street as you tuck into sea trout, samphire and Scottish girolles. The wine list is worth exploring too and, with one third of a bottle carafes available, it's easy to do so. Dedicated fans of St. John Bread and Wine will be thanking their lucky stars that they don't have to trek to Spitalfields to enjoy their favourite food any more. Better book if you want to beat them to it.
