Charming
Good for special occasions
Great for craft beers

A traditional pub serving contemporary English food in the heart of Fitzrovia. The Lore is composed of The Pub on the ground floor, The Kitchen on the first floor and Private room with bar on the top floor.

All of our food is freshly prepared by Head Chef Michal Kaszuba and his brigade in the Lore kitchen on the first floor. Our menus have been created especially to reflect the seasons, when ingredients are at their very best.
Our legendary Sunday roast is slow-cooked with delicious trimmings.

THE PUB
A copper and pewter topped bar serving a range of beers, including our very own Gritchie brews, premium spirits, cocktails and selected wines. The walls are adorned with eclectic and original artwork.

THE KITCHEN
Open plan but still intimate. Experience the sight and sound of our open kitchen with the Chefs cooking on our bespoke, charcoal fuelled oven and char-grill.

THE PRIVATE ROOM
A wonderful private room with private bar on its own floor.

Such a lovely evening! The food was just incredible, particularly the venison tartare, pork loin and beef cheek. Just amazing. Such lovely staff who were always ready to help and even treated us to a complimentary pudding for our special occasion! The Guinness was also a major highlight. Huge fun sitting near the bar upstairs and watching the cooks create everything. Can’t wait to come back again, thank you for looking after us so brilliantly!

Definitely one of the best roast dinners around! I had booked this over 6months in advance due to it being so busy and it was worth the wait. The pub has a really good vibe, the food was outstanding. The staff who were behind the bar and who also served us at our table were very lovely. I will definitely return and highly recommend this place.

Waitresses were very good at their job. The steak was under seasoned in my opinion and lacked luster. The negronis were pre mixed and not quite balanced. The wine was excellent.

A really pleasant dining experience with the welcome and ambience within the main bar area preparing you for the fine dining experience on the first floor. The staff were attentive and friendly and the food amazing. Compliments to the Chefs was given personally due to thier proximity to the dining area.
