We're serious about British food.

 

All of our dishes are made to order with fresh local ingredients bought from producers we know personally. Our menus change with each season, though some old favourites are always available. Inspite of being bigger than we look from the outside, it's wise to book in advance.

 

 

 


“The pub is known for its first-rate English food.”

Barbara Cansino, The New York Times

 

“Mr Thomas's Chop House is proof that British fare, when expertly handled, can more than hold its own against its continental cousins.”

 

“The starters are superb… the dishes arrive promptly, steaming quietly and invoking a sense of rural tranquillity far from the city streets outside.”

 

“Main courses are just as good. A highlight is homemade corned beef hash topped with smoked bacon, eggs and parsley - a wonderful dish well able to stand alongside feggatini alla Veneziana, the classic version from Venice's Harry's Bar. It is simply wonderful.”

 

“At around £20 a head, excluding drinks (which can be ordered from a good wine list or a selection of tip-top guest ales), it truly represents the best of British.

Waitrose Magazine

 

“Despite the reputation of Thomas's, not all the food is traditional British, but its secret is that it is cooked in the best tradition of British food.”

“The menu, as well as the interior, is what makes this bar so famous overseas.”

Liz Mutch, The MEN, Monday May 9, 2005

 

They specialise in big portions here, and even starters like haddock fish cakes would have no trouble satisfying on their own.”

 

“For such a bustling joint, presentation is surprisingly spot-on.”

Ruth Allan, The Guardian
