"The little sister to their main restaurant in Farringdon, St John Bread And Wine is a great place for overdue catch-ups. And that’s exactly what this meeting is, right? Right? Okay, we can’t tell you the answer to that, but we can tell you that this informal spot near Spitalfields Market has very calming white-washed walls, a simple bar, and an all-round lovely ambience. Added bonus: this spot has the kind of excellent, freshly-baked doughnuts that you can take photos of and forward to all of your mutual friends when it turns out that your dinner companion actually eloped with a surfer four months ago. How fun." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
