Originally the staff canteen for locally based architects Allies & Morrison, The Table has evolved its offering and now serves up daily breakfast and lunch, plus a relaxed weekend brunch – including the hefty 'Table stack', which is good enough to lure foodies away from nearby Borough Market. The kitchen is now by run by one of Angela Hartnett’s protégés, so you can expect accomplished modern Italian dishes based on the judicious use of seasonal native ingredients. Lunch might feature saffron risotto or grilled sardines with marinated courgettes, while dinner (served Thursday to Saturday) could include perfectly pan-fried whole plaice served with baked cucumber, aniseedy pork belly 'porchettata' with creamy braised borlotti beans and – to finish – an exemplary bitter chocolate tart. The innovative wine list is a bonus, with its line-up of unusual bottles (all available by the glass).

We Love Food, It :: At last – brunch at The Table Cafe | 83 Southwark Street, London, SE1 0HX
It has been approximately five years that I have been waiting to have brunch at The Table Cafe. Really. This inconspicuous restaurant across the road from work has become special to me. Lunch and dinner has always been incredible (click here for our review), but the thought of coming up to London and doing my work commute on a Saturday was just all wrong...

love2feed :: eat: the table
She says: Although having worked in the Southwark area for six months when I first arrived in London, I only managed to squeeze in the occasional morning coffee run at The Table. One recent weekend, we were tossing up between The Table, Elliot’s cafe and Bea’s diner @ Maltby St markets for Saturday brunch. Thanks to fellow foodie Dione, we were swayed by her recommendation to try the food at this cafe! I’ve heard the Table is packed to the brim on weekends and queues here can be quite long and disheartening. We walked briskly and quickened our pace to get there before 11am. Despite being surrounded by a crowd of young urbanites and groups of families – from babies in strollers to grey haired grans, there’s a relaxed ambience in the air. We are greeted with pleasant smiles, then seated on a long wooden bench next to another unassuming couple...

FoodiesOnTheProwl FoodiesOnTheProwl :: The Table Cafe, Sept 2012
I’ve been meaning to give the Table Cafe a try for quite a while now. However, the final push came after I learned that one of the former chef’s of Zucca recently moved there to head-up the kitchen…so the Foodies decided to go prowling in their Southward backyard...

We Love Food, It :: The Table Cafe revisited, 83 Southwark Street, London SE1 0HX
We had the chance to visit Dabbous. We turned it down. Are we mad? Possibly, yes, but it was for a very good cause. The Table restaurant on Southwark Street, where our blog began, was having a press night to showcase their new head chef, Cinzia Ghighoni, and we wanted to lend our support. Cinzia, previously of Duck Soup and nearby Zucca has taken over the Head Chef reigns from Shaun Alpine-Crabtree, and slotted in perfectly, giving a new lease of life to the menu (not that we think it needed it of course)...
