Whole Venue at Ebi Wines

Dinner and drinking in a small, focused Clerkenwell wine bar from Raku Oda, formerly head sommelier at The Fat Duck. The 452 sq ft room gives you a window nook for two, counter seats along a buttermilk-yellow tiled bar and a handful of tables seating up to eight, with the open-plan kitchen running down one side. The list covers sparkling, white, orange, rose, red, sweet wine and sake, and the kitchen keeps the food restrained: olives, British cheeses, charcuterie, homemade crackers and chilled Hiyashi tomatoes. Japanese-designed cutlery and handmade coasters carry the detail through to the table.
