The Lamb Tavern is a traditional British pub at 10–12 Leadenhall Market in the City of London. The public house dates to 1780 and occupies three floors in the ornate covered market, including a first floor dining room overlooking the cobbles. Old Tom’s basement bar adds another distinctive space beneath the main pub.
The kitchen takes inspiration from Leadenhall Market’s history as a centre for meat, poultry and game. Its menu combines familiar pub dishes with a particular emphasis on lamb, including lamb Wellington and other seasonal preparations. British ingredients and produce are central to the cooking, with lamb sourced from Salt Marsh Farm on the Gower in South Wales.
An à la carte meal might begin with a pork and parsley Scotch egg, cured salmon or burrata with salt baked beetroot before moving to fish and chips, chicken Kiev, steak and ale pie or a British beef burger. Vegan and vegetarian dishes are marked on the menu, and Sundays bring a dedicated selection of roasts with vegetables, potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and gravy. Guests should tell staff about allergies before ordering.
Beer and real ale remain at the heart of the tavern, supported by wine, cocktails and seasonal spritzes. The different floors work for anything from a quick City lunch to a group celebration, while the dining room offers a calmer view across the market. The Lamb Tavern combines a historic London pub setting with a food menu substantial enough to make it a dining destination in its own right.
