Pollen Street Social

Jason Atherton’s Pollen Street Social opened back in 2011 and was awarded a Michelin star within its first six months that it still holds today. With the restaurant’s concept being redeveloped in 2020, this relaxed venue serves modern European cuisine in a sociable setting. There’s a choice of set menus available but you can also opt for private dining in the sophisticated dining room with spittoons for wine tasting and a view into the kitchen. Or, sit at the chef’s counter and enjoy a special menu for a unique restaurant experience.

Pollen Street Social focuses on nurturing long-term relationships with their suppliers, serving quality produce sourced from throughout the UK. A four-course à la carte menu is on offer with dishes like Cornish blue lobster and Lake District lamb. You can also choose from a selection of tasting menus. For plant-based diners, vegetarian and vegan tasting and four-course menus are available. Wine pairings are also offered for all tasting menus. At lunchtime, there’s a three-course set menu to try, offering modern dishes like lemon sole with scallop and seaweed mousse.

The restaurant also offers a range of cocktails, including signature mixes and non-alcoholic options. Wine lovers will discover a wine list full of bottles from around the world. Pollen Street Social offers laid-back, high-quality dining from an experienced team. Both the décor and the menu are modern and carefully considered. This restaurant remains a popular choice for relaxed and sociable dining.
