5 Fabulous Small Plates Restaurants

Small plates dining is a sociable and fun way to eat out. Increasingly popular, many fabulous restaurants offer this ‘tapas style’ which opens the door to trying more dishes, sharing with loved ones and friends, and ordering as you dine to suit your appetite. These fantastic small plates restaurants deliver seasonal dishes using quality produce.  

Roots, York : 

Tommy Banks (The Black Swan Oldstead)  also spoils us with his central York based Roots. Meat, fish and vegetable flavour-filled dishes. Choose the ‘Roots Feast’ where the chefs will choose a selection for you. Extremely generous and delicious food. 

Root, Bristol: 

Based in a cool shipping container at Whapping Wharf, Bristol, Root has a fantastic view if the weather allows but the food is even better! The dishes are generous and based on the seasonal vegetables that are available. A little fish and meat in on the menu but the vegetables are the main focus. delicious!  

Cornerstone, Hackney Wick, London:

Fish focused Cornerstone offers tasty small plates- we particularly enjoyed the crab crumpet. Watch the magic happen from the comfort of your table as they have an open kitchen! 

Outlaw’s Fish Kitchen: 

Serving the freshest fish direct from the local catch, Fish Kitchen offers delicious dishes where the fish is always the star of the show. We loved the special ‘crab on sourdough’ served with crisp celeriac and apple slaw. 

Crockers of Tring: 

Enjoy small plates in the dining room and bar at Crockers, Tring. Meat, fish and vegetarian based dishes are on offer and can be ordered as you eat to suit your appetite. The chefs table upstairs offers a tasting menu too.
