Flint House

Had a fantastic lunch recently at @theflinthouse and not just because it was child free but the quality of their small plates is top tier. We sat at the pass and watched the chefs at work which I always really enjoy too

As part of the @thegingermanrestaurant group, these guys have always impressed with their creativity and skill but this visit was particularly enjoyable. We had the Chef’s Menu which was 5 courses for £50 (wine flight optional) which included some of their best small plates that the chef had put together. As it was a fairly quiet lunch service, the chef kindly swapped out one of the dishes for me that I wasn’t keen on (Mackerel, blurg!) and replaced it with a delicious miso aubergine that I really enjoyed!

The stand out for us was the Slow Roast Lamb Shoulder, Crushed Peas, Feta, Mint and, of course the Confit Potato, Black Pepper Aioli which is one of their signature dishes along with the Sweetcorn Fritters which are always excellent

While quite a pricey lunch on a random Tuesday, the food is really excellent and we came away very happy with our child free lunchtime choice! Will definitely be going back soon, especially when the weather gets a bit better to sit on their gorgeous outdoor terrace which has always been a lovely place to dine with a glass of wine or two. Perfect place for a special occasion or just when you fell like being fancy!
