We ate here for dinner on our first night in London on our Honeymoon. This was my husband's pick, and he was so excited about it. It was his first time in London, and most of our other diners were more of "experiences" (or just very popular) and this felt more like a really cool, local, but still high end spot. So less "pressure" if you know what I mean. It felt like a real find though. I was surprised that it was so busy for a week night - the only tables that weren't full were the patio ones (and it was a chilly night for early fall) - though the patio was super cute so I would eat there on a warmer night if we return. I surprised at how cramped it did feel when full, it was also quite loud, but not in obnoxious way (like music too high) - just like lots of good conversation was happening. Service, was a little odd, we weren't totally sure who our server was. We had two different people continually helping us throughout the night but when it came time to checkout, only one came and she asked for the credit on the review. We think the other person helping us was a manager because he was always close to and talking with a chef in the kitchen (we could see it from our table) and seemed very stressed, he also only came to check on us after seeing we hadn't been checked on in a while. It was a little weird looking back but we were so tired from traveling we didn't notice really and just rolled with it. The food for us was hit or miss. All farm to table and was very good, I just have a tricky pallet because of a stomach issue. We loved some of it and were a little iffy on some. I remember distinctly not loving the dessert but really loving the bread, fish, and drinks we had-my Negroni was especially good. All in all yes we would return and will be adding it to my list of London spots to recommend, just with some notes and yes there is every chance that just hit it on an off night.

Very friendly and warm restaurant located near the park. The staff is extremely friendly and happy to explain any items on the menu. The food is very fresh and while portions are small it is filling. I would highly recommend this place for a solo lunch or meeting with friends.

My partner and I were visiting from the states, and staying not too far from The Shed. I was specifically looking for something upscale but not stuffy, fancy but not insanely priced, and romantic but not cheesy. The Shed delivered on all accounts!! The venue is beautiful; fresh orchids abound and each table is candle-lit. It's also quirky - with local vintage items adorning the walls, and even the head of a boar greets you as you enter. The menu is delightfully eclectic but still very British - which is something we were specifically after. It also has a very clear farm to table energy, highlighting Nutbourne Farms as a source for many of its offerings. The Nutbourne white wine was so delicious that my "just one glass" turned into four! All of the food was exquisite. DO NOT miss the black truffle pesto - I literally teared up, and my boyfriend had to physically stop me from licking the plate (not really, but I don't know that I've ever felt quite so tempted). The mushroom marmite eclairs were also a standout - a savory moment where often Chou is underused. The pigeon was also a surprise - the smoky and earthy umami in the various mushrooms in that dish made it sing! Service was wonderful. When we first sat down, we were looking around and taking everything in, when the chef suddenly appeared to make sure we were ok. I guess we looked lost, but really we're just so enamored of everything we were taking in. The fact that it's not overpriced makes this a fantastic spot for everything from special nights out with a loved one, or a group of culinarily-appreciative friends. This is by far the best place I ate while visiting London, would ABSOLUTELY recommend, and will definitely be back the next time I'm in town.

A delightful culinary tour of Sussex. I was always warned away from British cuisine, but anyone who did so should've tried The Shed! I went with their tasting menu with wine pairing, and couldn't be happier. The goat cheese tartlet starter & paired wine may have been my favorite, but it's truly hard to choose.

Charming restaurant just around the corner from the busy street. Staff were extremely welcoming and helpful with the menu options. The food was great and the cocktails were a hit. The shedspresso martini and the spicy shrub margarita were my favorites. My husband loved the potato and leek soup. The ribeye was cooked perfectly, grilled goats cheese, roasted potatoes, and broccoli all delicious.

Rose forest mocktail - excellent!

What a fun spot! Very friendly and welcoming ambiance, and I loved the menu variety. I feel like I could eat here 7 times in a row and have (and enjoy) something different every time. Bravo!

Marmite eclair
Siobhan C.

We stumbled across this restaurant while wandering in London and ate here for lunch. I'm so glad we did! This meal easily had some of our favorite food of our entire trip. It's a farm to fork menu so I imagine their menu is highly seasonal. We mainly ordered appetizers because they looked interesting. That worked out for us, portion wise. Appetizers: Mushroom marmite eclairs - they're really more of a filled choux bun than an eclair. Pedantry aside, they tasted amazing. I'd go back for these. Chargrilled goat's cheese - basically a variation on a baked Brie but without it puff pastry. It was fine but I'd try something else next time. Squid ink bread with trout roe - great smoked fish dish. I'd eat this again in a heartbeat.* (*This was probably their most 'instagramable' dish: their best dishes taste amazing but don't necessarily look amazing. Maybe one of the reasons this restaurant is more affordable?) Chorizo, kale, flatbread - another winner. More spicy flavors than the other dishes (spicy for the uk that is). Very tasty, hard to stop eating it. Mains: Pea Risotto - another winner! Beautiful, tasty risotto dish that fit with the season and that we couldn't stop eating. Overall: This restaurant is a genuine foodie find in London, a city that often charges through the nose for overrated food. The Shed is the real deal. Check it out if you're in the area - and try the appetizers!

The food and wine were excellent. We had the cod and duck. Service was a bit slow but I think that is subjective because I am American. Its good to slow down! Friendly people and very cute place. Chair was a bit small but not uncomfortable. Music was perfect and not loud. Even though it was more expensive than what we usually spend on a date night, it was worth it.

Set menu that my group had at The Shed!

Everything was fresh and tasted amazing. Try the venison cigars! We arrived right when they opened for lunch so there was no wait.

This was a decent pub we all had dinner at in London on a Monday. Service is a little different in…read moreLondon. You typically order at the bar instead of a waitress coming to the table. One eventually came to our table after sitting awhile. I of course had to try the fish n chips. A couple of veggie burgers were ordered and a regular burger. Surprisingly happy hour was still on at 8 o'clock so drinks were ordered. The food all came at the same time and everything was cool. The fish had a nice flavor from the fried batter. To me it was similar to Long John Silvers as far as the batter is concerned, but slightly better quality overall. The fries were standard. The only thing horrible was the very bland mashed green peas. They should be omitted from every pub across the country, but I think it is a traditional item included with the fish. The cocktails were good as well as the price. The sticky toffee pudding was something else I was advised to try while in London. I must admit it was really delicious. It came with a scoop of ginger ice cream and a warm buttery toffee sauce to pour over. It was delightfully warm and sweet and paired well with the ice cream. The cake itself was moist enough on its own with notes of brown sugar and molasses. I could have had seconds and thirds of this desert. Yum! The majority of my party didn't think the food was fantastic. The burgers happened to be somewhat alright. This was a first for me having pub food and I would have more again as long as I stick to the basics.

I only came here because it was a convenient meeting place for several friends, and one of my…read morefriends is a regular here, so we all decided to meet one evening, and I am glad we did! Yes, there are many pubs in London, everyone has their favorite, everyone has their local, and my "local" depends on where I am staying. In any case, several of us met here. The place was definitely hopping but one of our group arrived early and grabbed a table. We all ordered drinks, I had beer which was delicious. After perusing the menu, I ordered the standard- Fish & Chips, with Mushy Peas. It came out quickly and was fried to perfection. Everybody else who ordered food seemed happy with their choices. It was a great setting to meet up with friends, and I will happily come back here when in the area. A solid pub in a city of many pubs!

However, on deeper inspection - the Cow is a marvelous dining experience - complete with an extensive wine selection, rotating specials, and a bespoken approach to food preparation. The food? Well, it's British pub fare - with a slightly divergent menu on Sundays. Everything is fresh and beautifully plated. The bangers and mash was exceptional. The green bean salad was so unique and popping with flavors, I scribbled the ingredients list in an attempt to reproduce the dish at home. The atmosphere is hopping - it's a small pub ambience and there is not any wasted space. Not to fear, the delightful staff can help find a table for your party. I was a bit intimidated walking in on a Sunday night all by myself. My trepidation quickly went away as the server made it easy to relax and enjoy my evening. As a small aside, I sat next to the small kitchen space on the main floor. To see the amazing plates being prepared one after the other in that tiny kitchen, well . . . that was an amazing experience in and of itself. Chapeau to the chef. Truly a masterpiece to put out such accomplished food from a space no larger than most bathrooms.
