Nessa is a British restaurant and bar at 86 Brewer Street in Soho. Named after artist Vanessa Bell and inspired by the creative spirit of the Bloomsbury Group, it combines a light filled dining room with an all day format that runs from breakfast to dinner.
The kitchen champions seasonal British produce while giving familiar dishes playful details. Breakfast might range from a mixed grill with carefully sourced sausage and black pudding to eggs Royale, broad beans on toast and banana French toast, offering both substantial and lighter starts to the day.
Later menus are designed for grazing, sharing or building a complete dinner. Handmade croquettes, British cheeses, small plates and comforting main dishes sit together, while express lunch and pre theatre menus provide a more structured option when diners have limited time.
The bar is integral to the restaurant, with house cocktails joining wine and other drinks throughout the day. Nessa’s combination of produce led cooking, Soho energy and cultural references makes it useful for business breakfasts, informal lunches, drinks with snacks and longer evening meals.
Address: 86 Brewer Street, Soho, London W1F 9UB, England
