In 2019 Philippe and J.J. were en route to view an apartment in Shoreditch. Philippe: French and a jewellery designer, the temper mental, creative one. JJ: English well versed in dealing with difficult situations and challenging clients. Unfortunately they got lost, missed the viewing and ended up instead at The Turks Head while they tried to ring the the estate agent. The couple seated at the next table were in the middle of a heated, easily overheard conversation and it became apparent that one of the people in question was the owner, and that the subject under discussion was the decision to sell and move on and that’s where our story starts. Could this be it? We leant over, joined in the conversation and expressed interest. One week later The Turks Head was ours. The menus are built round this and dishes are prepared to order. The downside is that when it’s gone, regretfully it’s gone, but we like to think our guests appreciate that quality is everything. It certainly is to us.

    Made the faux pas of not booking dinner for my wife's birthday in advance and tried this restaurant based on a 40 second scan of reviews and their Instagram page. It turned out to be an excellent decision. Food, superb, ambience, superb, table, superb, many thanks to the host and our waiter Calum for making the night a very special one for my wife. Highly recommend.

    I am in two minds. To keep this neighbourhood gem as a cherished secret so we can get a table or to trumpet it and be disappointed because it is fully booked. The location and dining spaces are beautiful, the menu is kept abbreviated so you know the ingredients used will be fresh and the service by Miro (last night) and Sue (from previous dining experiences) is delightful. The bread and butter, the wagyu burger with truffle chips, fine green beans, the moules… all made delicious, fresh. Merci
