Noble Rot Soho

Noble Rot took the historic Gay Hussar room on Greek Street in 2020, the Soho institution where Robin Cook and the Labour left used to plot. The wood-panelled, oxblood-leather Hungarian shell was kept; what changed is what comes out of the kitchen and what is poured. The list runs to 600+ bins, the Burgundy section especially deep, with the same unfussy mark-up principle as Lamb's Conduit. Stephen Harris of The Sportsman in Whitstable consulted on the original menu; the kitchen now runs a longer, more ambitious brief than the Bloomsbury original, whole turbot, dressed crab, charcuterie from Cornwall. The Soho pre-theatre and post-Almeida room.
