About the restaurant
Clipstone is part of the successful Woodhead group, owned by Will Lander and Daniel Morgenthau, which also owns The Quality Chop House as well as Clipstone’s sister restaurant Portland. Clipstone takes a similar ethos to the Michelin-starred Portland but with a slightly more casual atmosphere.
Diners can treat the menu as an à la carte with starters and mains, or as smaller and larger sharing plates. A celebration of seasonal British produce is at its heart, with thoughtful, imaginative and elegant dishes, but always delicious.
The dining room dictates the restaurant’s casual feel: small, bare tables and an open kitchen showcasing the chefs’ cooking. It makes Clipstone a great place to go for genuinely excellent bistronomy-style cooking in a space that’s still sociable, great for a date or catching up with a good mate.

Critic reviews
The Infatuation
The food’s never showy, and it’s a good place for an informal dinner or for anyone looking to dip their toes into fine dining but without the huge price tag or time commitment.
The Guardian
The wooden seats at Clipstone may be unforgivingly hard, but the food is so superbly good you won’t notice
Standard
Clipstone isn’t for closed minds. It’s hot right now and set to stay that way.
The Telegraph
Truth is, while Clipstone’s menu contains much I wanted to eat, this is not necessarily how I wanted to eat it
Time Out
Clipstone, you see, is the kind of restaurant we’d all want in our ’hood. It’s the kind that if you were thinking of moving house
The Nudge
You’ll find tongue-challenging starters like crudo of char with unripe peaches & elderflowers; tomatoes with raspberries, purple basil & fermented tomato juice; or grilled ox tongue with heritage radishes & crème fraîche.
