| Shoreditch, Clerkenwell
Small plates, sharers and snacks are on the menu here, at this venture from the team who ran Michelin-starred Hackney restaurant Ellory. Now they're Shoreditch-based with a more laid back venture that features their own Vermouth and wines.
Test Drive
Ellory has moved to Shoreditch and been reborn as Leroy. We went to experience the shift in direction in action.

"We shared everything: a plate of good mixed charcuterie to start, then "Christian Parra" boudin noir, pomme purée and watercress on toast (EC2A likes toast), in which, although the black pudding appeared to have crashed from a different dish - "Bonnie Langford in The Elephant Man," said Jason - everything else harmonised very well."

"I guess it’s the old “sharing plates” trick, where it just mounts up and you don’t notice. Dishes look reasonably priced but you’re ordering twice as many of them as you would anywhere else." READ REVIEW

"Vegetarians will do beautifully at Leroy, or at least they did on the menu I ate. The beetroot salad was abundant with hazelnuts, and I demolished it like a large greedy squirrel. I was similarly enthusiastic about a plate of sublime white asparagus, roasted simply in butter and titivated with a dipping egg yolk." READ REVIEW

"Food is always mixed up with self-image and ethics as well as enjoyment. Yet hardly ever have I felt more rectified and instructed, rather than served and indulged, than here." READ REVIEW
