The Clerk & Well is a characterful pub and dining room at 156 Clerkenwell Road, with eight boutique bedrooms above the bar. Its central Clerkenwell setting makes it equally suited to a relaxed drink, a working lunch or dinner, while the kitchen gives familiar British pub cooking a thoughtful seasonal approach.
Small plates encourage sharing and can include buttermilk chicken bites, four cheese croquettes, hummus with warm flatbread and creamy burrata. Mackerel pâté and fishcake introduce richer seafood flavours, while fresh vegetable dishes and salads offer lighter contrasts before the main course.
Substantial choices range from beer battered fish and chips, sausages with mash and a classic burger to wild salmon, lamb rump and sirloin steak. Pasta and a harissa spiced aubergine dish broaden the selection, allowing the menu to serve traditional pub tastes alongside more contemporary combinations and vegetarian cooking.
Sunday brings roast meats and vegetable options with roast potatoes, seasonal accompaniments and gravy, making the pub a comfortable destination for a leisurely weekend meal. Craft beer, wine and cocktails support the food throughout the week, and the rooms upstairs offer visitors the convenience of staying in the same historic neighbourhood setting.
