Map 15

Blackfriars / Farringdon

The choices for eating out and drinking in this quarter are myriad, but we recommend getting your chops around a side of cow: Smith’s and Gaucho are two solid options. Get a feel for sixteenth-century London with a potter around the old Livery Halls, then make like a Dickensian Oliver in the gated Charterhouse Square.
