Enter St John and you’ll be struck with the white washed walls and high ceilings that give the place a relaxed, clean feel. The food on the other hand, is a little more adventurous, with menu highlights along the lines of bone marrow, trotters and offal. Whilst there are dishes for the more timid, if you’re not going to get involved in the daily changed offering of animal innards, you might feel a little left out. For the full Lord of the Flies experience, bring some friends and feast on the whole roast suckling pig.
