Critic's Choice: Where to eat in Borough Market

A resolutely British eaterie in the beautiful Floral Hall, a charming and informal oyster house and a brasserie that brews its own beer all feature among Charles Campion's top picks...

Roast
Floral Hall, Stoney Street, SE1
Occupying an unusually beautiful space, this restaurant is now finding its feet. The cuisine is resolutely British and there are plenty of painstakingly sourced regional delicacies. £25pp ex-drinks. (020 7940 1300).

Wright Brothers Oyster & Porter House
11 Stoney Street, SE1
A charming and informal establishment that not only offers oysters and porter but other straightforward fishy options. Make the most of the native oysters. £20pp ex-drinks. (020 7403 9554).

Brew Wharf
Borough Market, SE1
What a jolly place. Once all "Brasseries" were like this, with beer brewed on the spot and hearty, satisfying food cast in the role of blotting paper to soak up any excessive indulgence. £20pp ex-drinks. (020 7378 6601).
