ÔÇ£SmithsÔÇØ of Smithfield is the Grade II listed four-floor restaurant in the heart of Smithfield Market ÔÇô LondonÔÇÖs only working meat market.
The restaurantÔÇÖs priority has always been to serve simple food made from the finest ingredients, served in a friendly way in a relaxed atmosphere.
The impressive building was lovingly restored by the ÔÇ£SmithsÔÇØ team with architects Wells Mackereth, having stood empty for over 40 years. ThereÔÇÖs a definitive New York feel to the overall style with plenty of open spaces, blasted brickwork, big windows and comfy leather seating. Each of the four floors has a distinctive style ÔÇô food, design and atmosphere ÔÇô offering pretty much something for everyone depending on mood, budget or time.
