Summary: A stark white dining hall frames a menu rooted in traditional English recipes and offal specialties.
St John sits in a whitewashed former bacon smokehouse near Smithfield, a stark no-frills dining room where the focus remains on the food. Since 1994 it has been a pioneer of nose-to-tail eating, championing historic English recipes and rare cuts. The culinary empire has grown to three restaurants plus a bakery, a winery and a wine company, all upholding a philosophy of seasonality and minimal ceremony.
