The Cardinal Bar & Kitchen

About The Cardinal Bar & Kitchen

The Cardinal Bar & Kitchen sits inside Hotel Saint near Aldgate station, serving a globe-trotting menu that pulls from British, Mediterranean, and Asian kitchens without losing its thread. Families find plenty of space both inside and on the pavement, with highchairs and buggy-friendly layout making it work for younger diners. The kids menu keeps things simple while grown-ups share chicken momos with crispy chilli oil, salmon tataki, or the mezze platter with smooth hummus and perfectly browned halloumi. Regulars mention staff members like Jill, Prince, and Saakshi for remembering repeat visitors and delivering warm service without rushing. The pistachio cheesecake turns up in reviews again and again, and the fish and chips come reliably tender. Sunday brunch draws local families, especially when First Table drops the bill by half, and the quinoa salad makes a lighter option before mains. Best for relaxed weekend meals when you want proper cooking without the formal dining stress.
