Having spent years supplying London’s top restaurants through their separate wine businesses, Joe Haynes and Benedict Butterworth have joined forces with Tom Hurst, who has worked at Brawn, The Marksman, Levan, and most recently as Head Chef at Lasdun, to launch the trio’s first restaurant together.Located in a Grade II listed building on Cloth Fair, Cloth Restaurant is part of a historic row of buildings in the City of London that survived the Great Fire of 1666. Down this atmospheric alley opposite St Bartholomew church, Cloth is taking over a double fronted corner site that’s beneath the former home of poet John Betjeman and next door to the two oldest residential buildings in London. Inside, low ceilings, wood floorboards with antique wall lights and artwork create a cosy, intimate atmosphere, while marble tables, long dark wood banquettes, antique crockery and cutlery will create the feel of a classic bistro.

Tea at the NoMad was incredible. The tea room was beautiful and the presentation and food were excellent. All of the staff were very very nice and when I said how much I loved the cucumber sandwiches they brought me two extra! I highly recommend high tea here.

A fantastic experience, among the best of fine dining available. The aesthetic and atmosphere is beautiful & relaxing, the tables are spacious and we didn’t feel clustered in at all. The food was beyond delicious; from the duck, pork & chicken terrine with pickled vegetables, to the mouth-watering venison flank (cooked to perfection) and outstanding truffle mashed potato. The staff were lovely, especially the manager of the night who was attentive, respectful and generously assisted when I asked for a video for a special occasion. The gentleman who sorted our drinks (especially pairing a lovely Bordeaux to my venison and a Chablis to the chicken dish) was also wonderful. For special occasions, this is a truly lovely place.

Such an incredible restaurant! The food was unreal and the service was excellent. I even received a beautiful birthday dessert on the house! So impressed with the service and quality of food especially being vegan and gluten free, there were soooo many incredible options to choose from. We ended up ordering 8 plates because everything sounded so good and each dish definitely lived up to their description, if not better. Thank you to everyone for making our evening so magical, special thank you to Meriam who was so attentive and knowledgeable, she gave us the best taco recommendations! :)
