Bluebird City

Tucked inside the five-star South Place Hotel, Bluebird City brings a stylish, modern British sensibility to the heart of the Square Mile.

Bringing an elevated dinner experience, Bluebird City champions seasonal produce and polished technique, delivering familiar comforts with a contemporary twist. The setting is relaxed but vibrant, with an outdoor terrace and spacious dining areas, all under a smart-casual dress code.

The kitchen moves deftly from the bar’s rosemary focaccia and nocellara olives to seafood with a cosmopolitan wink: think spicy salmon maki or a crab California roll with a pleasing crunch. A Bluebird chopped salad offers crisp, kale-led freshness, while steak tartare arrives with slow-cooked egg yolk, crispy potato and crème fraîche.

Mains balance plant-led warmth and classic carnivorous pleasure, from a wild mushroom, artichoke and lentil ragu with truffled potatoes to a dry-aged old spot pork chop glossed with Pummery mustard. Grill staples, a 42-day aged ribeye steak and truffle mashed potatoes underscore the kitchen’s affinity for depth and indulgence, with Sunday roasts providing a timely, comforting finale.

Settle in, raise a glass, and let Bluebird City take you under its wing.
