The Best Restaurant in The City, London

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Historic and just beyond The City limits, chef-centric Clerkenwell is one of the most trendy and interesting quarters for London gastro-dining, which sets it in stark contrast to the adjacent City, which caters overwhelmingly to traditional business-focused dining.

City Social

$$$$ | City of London

A largely corporate crowd comes here for the Manhattanesque views of The City and chef Jason Atherton's masterful but straightforward cuisine. Impressed diners look out from Level 24 of Tower 42 on a majestic panorama that takes in illustrious buildings like the Gherkin and the Walkie Talkie. Dinner options include sea bass and Jerusalem artichoke or a generous hunk of beef "Josper cooked" on the grill. The soufflé is a total winner for dessert, while the service—like City Social itself—is stratospheric.
