One of London’s most historic neighbourhoods, today Clerkenwell has earned itself a reputation as the city’s go-to gastronomic destination. Nestled amongst the medieval city gates sit Michelin starred restaurants, historic pubs and epicurean cafes. It’s the neighbourhood where East London meets West London, so, pick a direction and you’ll come across Old Street or Broadway Market, The Barbican or St Pauls, The Thames or Somerset House.
