Milk & Honey

Milk & Honey opened in Soho, London, in April 2002 and remains dedicated to bringing unrivalled drinks quality and service to a discerning crowd of grown-ups.

Milk & Honey is one of Soho's best-loved bars and has become a London institution since it opened.

We have bars on three floors offering a range of intimate booths, counter and lounge drinking and eating options.

Access to non-members is by reservation only until 11pm (and in practice restricted to the early part of the week).

No reservation is required for members, but we advise that you always call ahead.

Vegetarian London: Plum + Spilt Milk Restaurant Review | Londonist

Review analysis
food   menu   staff   drinks   desserts  

Ingredients somehow seem more connected to nature; and it’s this very earthiness that’s prevalent on the small vegetarian menu of Plum + Spilt Milk.

To be honest, the vegetarian section is tiny, with only three main courses (well, that’s two more than most Modern British restaurants — with not a mushroom risotto or goats cheese salad in sight).

The earthiness is then turned up a notch or two in a main course dish, attractively presented in a small cast iron cocotte, of tiny puy lentils braised in vegetable stock with shallots and swiss chard, with a perfectly poached egg perched on top.

No earthiness, however, is found in the eponymous dessert of ‘plum and spilt milk’, which seems to be from a different realm altogether.

Surely only the sugar plum fairy could have created something as lovely as this: a sugar-speckled slice of warm brioche, topped with wedges of baked plums in a pool of jammy, jewel-pink plum sauce, with a scoop of smooth, creamy milk ice cream on the side.

Restaurant review: Plum + Spilt Milk, Great Northern Hotel, Pancras ...

Review analysis
drinks   food   staff   location  

The restaurant (named for the colours of the livery of old LNWR trains' dining cars) is located within the Great Northern Hotel, in London's King's Cross.

Behind luggage trolleys and a new entrance to the train station is the rather austere hotel, which has a fashionably cave-like bar and blink-and-you'll-miss-them stairs up to the restaurant.

The shrimp, with a luscious granular butter and nutmeg tang, is lovely, and I'm happy that a romaine lettuce didn't die in vain under my sweet, spankingly fresh prawn cocktail.

Puddings – a great strength of the nearby Gilbert Scott – are, if not quite in Marcus Wareing's ballpark, pretty darned good: we share a sugary Kentish gypsy tart and a tart gooseberry pie (around £7).
