Chic, cosmopolitan Village East is a buzzy restaurant situated in the edgy Bermondsey area of London. Rugged beams and polished concrete mingle with stylish lighting and curvy white seating to add an air of urbane bonhomie to the interior, enlivened by the exuberant mood of the open kitchen. The inventive, eclectic European-led cooking includes charred poussin with chermoula spices or roast halibut fillet with parsley, tomato and mussel compote, accompanied by a well-chosen wine list and classic cocktails served at the bar.
