Pollen Street Social (8-10 Pollen Street, London, London, W1S 1NQ) Reminds me of why Mr Atherton is so missed at Maze , he's a culinary genious. The dining room is beautiful, tables not too squashed and really cute touches like a key they give you to hand in when you leave which you exchange for a bag of ‘afternoon tea’ – a tea bag and scone. Food was as delicious as expected with the squid rissoto proving a real hit for our party (no rice the squid makes the risotto). Mains were equally delicious but the desserts were to die for. Some old faves like a re-incarnation of his PBJ from Maze and some really unqique things like hay ice cream. delicious – will certainly be returning. It isnt cheap, but worth every penny.
