The Mercer manages to combine a modern, clean atmosphere with excellent, attentive (and unobtrusive) service, and good food.
The breakfast menu has a good selection of the classics, and the offer of a newspaper to accompany them.
The lunch menu was seasonal, fresh, and appealing, and tasted delicious.
A real find in the city, and thoroughly recommended, albeit perhaps not for those on a tight budget.

So often "good" restaurants in this part of London feel stuffy; too much pomp and circumstance, particularly where their food is highly reputable. The Mercer thankfully breaks this mould delivering quality food in spades and an atmosphere to match.
The menu is peppered with British dishes, gastro-pub classics, and enough contemporary twists to satisfy a broad range of tastes. Start with an indulgent warm black pudding salad or scallops and pork belly, then progress to perfectly cooked venison in Madeira sauce or try the beef and Guinness pie with oyster.
Herbivores and pesco-veggies will be pleasantly surprised at the range of fish and vegetarian options; something not too common in restaurants of this style, but a very welcome addition to the range of fare on offer.
