Mezcal sour cocktail

The term small but mighty applies perfectly to The Palomar. The greeting is warm, the music lively, the cocktails potent and the wait to be seated at the counter a long one if you haven’t booked ahead. And wait you should, as eating at the bar is where the party’s at. Highlights of head chef Omri McNabb’s Israeli small-plates sharing menu include spiced lamb cutlets, as well as matbucha and grilled broccoli. For a quieter evening, take a seat at one of a handful of cosy tables in the back. thepalomar.co.uk
