Ground Floor Cafe - Smiths Of Smithfield (Farringdon)

• The Smiths is an amazing place
• Social area where the food is inexpensive and people tend to be drinking
• Where the menu is slightly more up market
• There is an amazing terrace where you can dine with a beautiful view above the market
• The view and food are really worth it
• A choice of 3 floors with 3 different atmospheres
• Is a great place for brunch or lunch with family or friends
• Especially if one is caught in a furious desire to burgers
• Hollandaise sauce is freshly prepared by the cook
• The vitamin cocktail fruit and vegetables are also ideal to gain strength and bring a healthy touch to the meal
• Opposite Smithfield Market and next to the famous club electro Fabric The SOS is an unmissable appointment
• 4.0 because it's not the best steak I've had
• Bit disappointed with the service
• I'll recommend the rib eye with Bernaise highly
• You can't go wrong with anything you choose from the menu
• My favourite is Eggs Benedict
• Smithfield is the Grade II listed four floor restaurant in the heart of Smithfield Market
• We dined in the Ground Floor Cafe which was very vast with exposed brickwork and plenty of large windows that allowed in plenty of natural light from outside
• Our first dish was the eggs benedict with ham
• The eggs were perfectly poached with nice runny yolks
• The second was the smoked haddock fishcake which was nice and round ish
• Served with another nicely poached egg with a runny yolk
• Our third option was the BBQ pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw
• Overall we were happy with our orders
• The only reason it's 2* is because the waiter was very apologetic when I complained and had the sense to charge us nothing for the food and for only 1 round of drinks
• Came here 1st June for burger and chips and it was a pretty decent burger actually
• I liked the decor although the hallways with huge photos of butchers and the style of the toilets reminded me of the horror film saw
• We had a couple of fish starters that were really clean tasting and well portioned to leave room for mains
• The wagyu burger was incredible
• Downstairs Smiths is great for a drink after work with a great atmosphere and well priced drinks is also good for a breakfast at the weekends (only around £
• First floor dining is averagely priced and the burgers are wonderful
• The waiting staff were extremely polite and engaging
• Their juices are lovely I had the carrot and ginger one and ordered the steak salad
• The meat itself was cooked perfectly at a medium rare standard the salad itself was just rocket as stated on the menu and the onions were delicious
• The dressing had a good taste but was far too oily which even left a bit of an oily aftertaste in my mouth
• We were satisfied with the decision
