The Five Fields

Honestly the best meal we’ve had in 2023 and probably in our past 7 years in London (at least what we remember). The wine menu is extensive and the food was well thought through mixing textures wand flavors. Interesting wine pairing options! Cheese course is a must. My husband is a very picky eater and he enjoyed every course. It was a great way to celebrate his belated birthday and end 2023. Will be coming back with our parents

Throughout the last seven years that I’ve been writing restaurant reviews there have been times when your simply blown away by the hospitality industry. Our lunch at The Five Fields on saturday was quite simply one of those occasions. This fabulous restaurant treated us to a dining experience that will be remembered for a very long time. I stated about a year ago that this place had become an absolute favourite of ours. This has now been enhanced even more after our latest visit. Our amazing afternoon began as soon as we walked through the door with a lovely welcome from Sandra and Nuno before Miriam escorted us to our table. Once settled we we given a complimentary glass of champagne while we looked at the menu. They only serve a tasting menu for lunch but as usual it all looked very inviting. We began with a delightful selection of snacks consisting of Salmon , Leek Tart , Cheese and Onion Tartelette and a Velvet Crab consommé. At this point sommelier Nuno came over to discuss what wine we’d like to have. He gave us a few options but in the end went for the one he seemed most passionate about. This was a Goliardo Tintos de Mar Rias Baixas from Spain a delightfully light and fruity red wine that complemented the menu perfectly. Before our first course we were in for a fantastic surprise as we headed downstairs to meet Chef Marguerite and the team. It was amazing to have a chat with them and to see them in action. We then headed back to the dining room to begin the afternoon’s festivities. Our first course was the Celeriac with poached oyster and pine. Along with this came a little surprise of a celeriac salad. We then moved on to the Carrot with a seared and dried scallop. This came with a scallop tartare along with a carrot and scallop roe escabeche. Onto the next next course which was a fantastic touch from the team as Marguerite sent us up an extra dish of Lobster with beetroot and rose that was absolutely stunning and accompanied with a lobster claw and green herbs side dish. A big hug from us was sent back to the kitchen. We then moved on to the Dover Sole confit with courgette which was heaven on a plate. Before moving to the main course there was another amazing surprise from the kitchen as they presented us with the Grouse with offal and girolles that simply left us on cloud nine. Now we could move to the main course and another fabulous dish. This was the short loin of Lamb with red peppers and rosemary. Next to come was a delightful and refreshing palate cleanser of Plum preserved plum sorbet with seaweed. Before our dessert it was good to see Michaela again who has returned to the restaurant as a sommelier. She asked if we’d like a sweet wine to pair with the Apple Tart with camomile and creme fraiche. She recommended a 2014 Greek Vinsanto from the Estate Argyros in Santorini with its light raisin notes paired amazingly with the apple. We finished with a coffee and petit fours to bring to an end a most amazing dining experience. The food was simply exceptional , the service was impeccable as always and the wine pairings were amazing. I really can’t recommend a visit to The Five Fields highly enough because if you haven’t been you are really missing out. This quite simply was hospitality at its finest and I cannot wait to walk back through their doors again. Thank You to Marguerite , Meg , Danny and Luca in the kitchen , Sandra and Miriam for their excellent friendly service and to Nuno and Michaela for fabulous wine pairings. We absolutely look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Had a lovely dinner at The Five Fields. We had the tasking menu which was versatile, tasty and well presented. The atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming. The staff was attentive. The food was well paced. The dishes themselves were very tasty, though some had somewhat similar aroma to them and weren't so original. The execution was excellent.

Food was good with an interesting concept where the whole course surrounds only one ingredient which showed the creativity and skills of the chef. However, I do not think their service was worth the 1 michelin star. When I walked in, no one greeted at the door and actually they looked surprised. I was first to arrive and the waiter just led me to the table - no one pulled the table or the chair which I thought was absurd - they have done this to other tables though. We were not expecting a birthday cake as some restaurants do not offer them, however , we noticed another table was offered a birthday cake. Waiters were unprofessional, the restaurant was not huge and I could hear them murmur/chitchatting at the background. The sommelier was the only staff that was up to standard. Would not recommend ordering wine pairing as the portions were so little. Would not come back. It was such a disappointing birthday dinner.
