Just moments from Marylebone High Street, The Cavendish has everything you'd look for in a traditional British gastropub despite being a relatively new kid on the block. Serving a food menu focused around seasonality, The Cavendish prides itself on using sustainable produce to create elegant dishes packed with flavour, with all-day menus, bar snacks, and one of the area’s finest Sunday roasts.
The Cavendish's light-filled space consists of a downstairs dining room and bar with the full brasserie treatment, complete with banquette booths, wood-panelled walls, and a more relaxed upstairs dining room and bar. As well as having a number of tables inside, the pub also benefits from a large Parisian-style heated outdoor terrace where guests can dine al fresco throughout the year.
The Cavendish offers an all-day menu, with inventive options that showcase plenty of classic techniques. Begin your meal with starters such as smoked duck breast with horseradish emulsion and beetroot gel, or Dorset mackerel with burnt orange ponzu and pickled kohlrabi. Generous main courses include pan-fried Shetland cod with sorrel sauce, and duck breast with a cherry jus and baby shallots. On Sundays there is, of course, also the option of a hearty roast, with options such as slow-roasted porchetta, lamb cooked in rosemary and garlic, and corn-fed poussin, served with all the trimmings.
The food menu is completed by a short selection of desserts such as Black Forest fudge cake and Eton mess. In terms of the drinks offering at The Cavendish, the wine list features plenty of options from all over the world available by both the glass and bottle. There is also a fantastic selection of seasonally changing cocktails available too. Opt for the likes of the Strawberry Old Fashioned with bourbon, vanilla syrup and bitters, or the Lychee Camomile Milk Punch with chocolate-washed gin, elderflower liqueur and lychee-infused camomile tea.
