Jamie Oliver Catherine St is a British restaurant at 6 Catherine Street in Covent Garden, beside the Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Its menu revisits dishes from Jamie Oliver’s childhood and career while drawing on seasonal produce from British farmers, fishers and cheesemakers. Lunch, pre theatre dining, dinner and Sunday roasts give the restaurant a natural connection to the rhythm of the surrounding West End.
Nibbles include Lancashire cheese croquettes with sweet leek and pickled walnut, sourdough with whipped butter and peas on toast with British stracciatella. Starters move from a black pudding Scotch egg and prawn cocktail to dry aged beef tartare. Coronation fried chicken combines crisp chicken with butter masala sauce and curry leaves, showing how familiar British ideas are refreshed with broader influences.
Main dishes include slowly cooked lamb shepherd’s pie, crab linguine with brown crab butter and beer battered monkfish with mushy peas and curry sauce. Pappardelle is served with a milk braised veal and pork ragù, while chicken breast is wrapped in pastry with mushroom and mustard sauce. The grill offers market fish, pork chop, dry aged sirloin, lamb rump and a beef burger with bacon jam and house cheese.
Desserts and proper Sunday roasts continue the menu’s focus on nostalgia, seasonality and generous cooking. British cheese, puddings and changing fruit provide several ways to finish, supported by cocktails, beer and a wine list. The restaurant also places strong emphasis on responsible sourcing, renewable energy and reducing food waste, connecting the celebratory dining room to Jamie Oliver’s wider food education work.
