The Jugged Hare is a British gastropub and game restaurant at 49 Chiswell Street, close to the Barbican. The warm, relaxed room combines the character of a traditional pub with a more polished restaurant experience, making it suitable for anything from a drink and lunch to a longer dinner.

Seasonal British game and fresh produce shape the kitchen’s identity. The menu changes with availability and can move through wild and farmed meats, fish and vegetable dishes, with careful cooking designed to showcase the character of each ingredient rather than disguise it.

The restaurant’s namesake preparation of hare is one of its best known signatures, traditionally served with comforting accompaniments. Sunday brings a dedicated roast selection with choices such as beef, pork, lamb and chicken, while an à la carte menu runs throughout the week.

A curated wine list, local beers and crafted cocktails support both bar visits and full meals. Set lunch and pre-theatre menus are particularly useful for guests heading to the nearby Barbican, while Sunday feasting and private dining options give larger groups reasons to settle in for longer.

Address: 49 Chiswell Street, London EC1Y 4SA, England
