Terroirs Wine Bar
London is finally catching up with Paris with the opening of Terroir, near Charing Cross tube station, a wine bar which focuses on natural wines.
The prices are quire reasonable for Central London, the service is very friendly (maybe a bit too relaxed for London) and the ambience does make you feel like in France.
They serve a wide selection small dishes which allows you to play the game of food and wine pairing. The only area to be improved is perhaps the selection of wines by the glass, they are not enough.

Fabulous food and a great atmosphere.
Really unusual dishes and each one exquisite.
The soft white polenta and wild mushrooms; clams, ham, garlic and chilli; bone marrow and truffle, lincolnshire smoked eel with celeriac remoulade; potted brown shrimps and steak tartare. Even the dressing on the green salad spoke of France. The best meal I’ve had for a long time and place where the enjoyment of wine is considered utterly natural!
