The Marksman is a public house and dining room at 254 Hackney Road, combining a traditional East End bar downstairs with a thoughtfully designed restaurant upstairs. Led by chef owners Tom Harris and Jon Rotheram, it became the first London pub to receive the Michelin Pub of the Year award.
The changing menu draws on the culinary history of the British Isles and produce from trusted farmers, fishers and suppliers. Oysters, soused fish, seasonal salads, terrines and the celebrated beef and barley bun show how the kitchen moves naturally between bar snacks and carefully composed opening dishes.
Main courses change with the seasons and can include grilled British fish, Hereford beef, Tamworth pork, game, pies and vegetable tarts. Sunday menus bring roast meat, Yorkshire pudding, potatoes and greens to the table, while feasting dishes for several guests make shared celebrations a particular strength.
Brown butter and honey tart, fruit puddings and British cheese offer a distinctive conclusion. Local beer, ale and cider preserve the character of a proper pub, while biodynamic and natural wines, house infused spirits and seasonal cocktails support dining upstairs or relaxed drinks on the roof terrace.
