Granary Square Brasserie – Kings Cross

Granary Square Brasserie has a main dining space with a seated long bar area running the length of one of the sides of the restaurant. There is a teal green and mustard theme to the decor.

The Botanist – Barnsley

The Botanist has lush greenery indoors and also in the outdoor seating area. There is a striking pretty floral mural on one of the walls.

The Ivy – Harrogate

The Ivy is a restaurant that has been on the radar to visit for many years. A birthday celebration gave us the perfect chance to dine at this wonderful place in the heart of Harrogate.

Masala Zone Criterion – Piccadilly Circus

Having High Tea at the Masala Zone Criterion felt like such a special dining experience. Entering the restaurant, what was striking was the modern and grand surroundings.

Falco Lounge – Barnsley

Falco Lounge is over two levels. The ground floor area has more of a pub feel and low lighting. In contrast the upper level is full of natural light with the huge windows and spacious seating.

Notes – Kings Cross

Notes was a lot smaller than expected for the seating areas. It did have an upper level. There was no worry of looking for vacant seats as the staff show you to available seats when you enter.

Pizza Pilgrims – Covent Garden

Quite a few years back, pizza was all about the toppings and the cheese. The more the better. Not much attention was paid to the base. How things have changed. Now it is all about the base, the crust and the minimal toppings.

Brother Marcus -Angel

Brother Marcus looks like a small coffee shop from the outside. The entrance is a solid blue door that has the “Come Inside” sign. The restaurant instantly has a welcoming atmosphere and a rustic feel to it. Green plants are entwined onto frames along the walls. Everything else is wooden including the wall panels and furniture.

Monsieur Georges – Toulouse

Although Monsieur Georges is situated in Place St Georges, it is secluded from the main square with plants and vegetation. The outdoor seating by the entrance initially looks fairly small but then there is additional seating over the grass way.
