The Eagle in Farringdon

TOM took me to The Eagle in Farringdon. It’s uber cool, with high ceilings, tables very close together, an open kitchen with the menu on chalk boards above.
It’s a bit of an assault on the senses at first as it is so loud, noisy and busy. But once you get used to it, it feels fun and exciting. There are about ten dishes which the chef writes up on the boards each day so it is regularly changing.
Tom and I were perched on stools in a window seat right next to the bar/ kitchen so it didn’t feel particularly relaxed.
But the food was great. We both had a steak salad with rocket, new potatoes and capers. The portions are a tad on the small size. It was about £15, but the quality was superb. The steak was cooked medium rare and was tender, well seasoned and delicious. The other ingredients all married well together and it was a great dish. I would recommend to go there for lunch.
