"It should come as no surprise that this relaxed, well-run restaurant sits on the corner of Clipstone Street, a short walk from Great Portland Street station, with the feel of a neighbourhood spot despite its enviably central location. A friendly young team sets a pleasant tone and a relaxed atmosphere accompanies generous, balanced dishes." - Andrew Young
"Clipstone is the younger and even more informal kid sister to Portland. The food takes after its older sibling with lots of tasty small plates—tempura courgette flowers, twice-baked comté souffle, venison tartare with potato crisps—but the modern European cooking is never show-offy. And it’s another good spot for anyone looking to dip their toes into fine dining, but without the price tag or time commitment." - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"Sister to fellow neighbourhood spots Portland and 64 Goodge Street, this well-run restaurant provides a great all-round package. The young team are full of smiles, the wine list is cleverly conceived and there’s a pleasing buzz to the atmosphere. The cooking, for its part, showcases quality ingredients and an original touch in somewhat delicate dishes." - Michelin Inspector
"After spending way too much time this year already kneading various balls of dough into various disappointing shapes, it’s time to treat yourself. It’s time to take yourself out of the kitchen, and into a place where dexter beef, potato and black truffle pithiviers are served. Where gravy, no, jus, is delicately poured from a height. What’s that? Your housemate has nothing on tonight? Why not ask them to don a selvedge denim apron and bring your radishes with anchovy cream in? Sure, you’re not quite at Clipstone, but it’s not bad for a Thursday night. Optional extras: Marble dining table, oversized serving tweezers, a subscription to Cereal magazine." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"If you’re looking for something on the fancier side, then Clipstone is one of those restaurants where all the food looks like it should be part of Frieze. And now, you can get that those artful plates - like the beef, potato, and black truffle pithivier - to your door, alongside sides, wine, desserts, and those fancy truffle crisps." - oliver feldman, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
