Simpson's in the Strand is an excellent choice for "high-class comfort food", so says The Telegraph, whose well-heeled readers will feel perfectly at home in these grand surroundings. Established in 1828, it is renowned for its great British roasts, carved at the table from magnificent silver-domed wagons. With its oak panelling, leather and lofty ceilings, this famous establishment has all the atmosphere of a private club. As well as speciality aged Scottish beef and other roasts the menu offers a wide range of classical dishes including potted shrimps, roast saddle of lamb and steak and kidney pie. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in the ground floor restaurant while the Knight's Bar, an art deco cocktail lounge on the first floor, is the perfect place to enjoy a pre-dinner cocktail or after-dinner aperitif.
