The Boardroom

A basement bar and restaurant, The Boardroom is where you'll find City workers, mainly regulars in their 30s/40s, relaxing and feeling comfortable.

Following a major refurbishment, the colour scheme is a smart pale and dark blue throughout. Bar snacks such as hot & cold sandwiches and wraps are served at lunch, with chips and nachos added for the evening. For a more formal meal, there's the restaurant where maple wall panels make it clear why the place is called what it is. Ask for a booth, smoking or non-smoking, for guaranteed privacy.

From the Modern European a la carte menu we recommend starting with a hearty chicken and bacon terrine, eaten with crunchy toast and a teaspoonful of cranberry chutney, followed by a juicy 8oz chargrilled steak. Desserts and cheeses change daily.

Open week days only.
