Down this atmospheric alley opposite St Bartholomew church, Cloth is taking over a double fronted corner site that’s beneath the former home of poet John Betjeman and next door to the two oldest residential buildings in London. Inside, low ceilings, wood floorboards with antique wall lights and artwork create a cosy, intimate atmosphere, while marble tables, long dark wood banquettes, antique crockery and cutlery will create the feel of a classic bistro.

Sunday roast was nice & tasty! At first it didn’t seem up too much but when you unravel your lunch it was more than enough. I did get extra potatoes though 👍🏽 Another good reason to come is they are dog friendly🐶 We will be back.
