Elliot’s is a seasonal restaurant, wine bar and natural wine shop at 12 Stoney Street in Borough Market. Its kitchen buys ingredients directly from market traders and trusted farms, then writes a changing menu around what is best at that moment. English wood and charcoal shape the cooking, giving the simple dishes a distinctive warmth without obscuring the produce.
Snacks often begin with bread and butter, olives, pickles and salami, Isle of Mull cheese puffs or Cantabrian anchovy toast. These concise plates suit a glass of wine and establish the restaurant’s direct approach to flavour. Vegetables receive the same attention through combinations such as fennel with blood orange and olive, radicchio with anchovy and pecorino, or asparagus with wild garlic.
The wood grill is used for carefully sourced fish and meat as well as vegetables. Depending on the market, a meal may move from raw or cured seafood and fresh cheese to whole fish, aged beef or a substantial roast cooked over flame. Fried potatoes with aioli and crisp seasonal leaves make simple accompaniments that keep the central ingredient in focus.
Desserts change with the fruit and mood of the kitchen, with wood baked cheesecake and tiramisu among the restaurant’s familiar finishes. Sunday service centres on wood fired roasts, while larger groups can choose a family style feasting menu. The wine list favours natural bottles from growers working organically or biodynamically, making the bar and shop as central to Elliot’s identity as the grill.
