The Clerkenwell Tavern is a neighbourhood pub at 2 Exmouth Market in London. Occupying a corner of this lively food street, it combines the ease of a traditional local with a considered approach to food and drink.

The kitchen works with a seasonal menu, so dishes change as ingredients and ideas move through the year. Substantial sandwiches are a recurring strength, including salt beef and Reuben-style combinations that suit lunch as naturally as an early evening meal.

Small plates and other pub dishes make it possible to stop for a snack or assemble a broader shared meal. The format is relaxed, but the attention given to produce and preparation lifts the food beyond a token bar offering.

Natural wine and craft beer are central to the drinks list, supported by other pub staples and alcohol-free choices. The tavern works for a casual drink, an unhurried meal or a meeting with friends; guests with allergies should check the day’s menu and preparation details directly with the team.

Address: 2 Exmouth Market, London EC1R 4PX, England
