TEMPER COVENT GARDEN
temper Covent Garden is always a good time. It’s got the largest terrace in the group and serves rare breed English steaks, which have been aged and butchered in-house, tacos and its famous bottomless brunch every Saturday. The restaurant is split over two levels, with an open kitchen on the ground floor where our chefs cook tacos, smoked meat parathas and deep-dish cookies over a fire pit and in a giant wood oven, plus a bar mixing Margaritas and pouring out shots of mezcal.
Downstairs you’ll find The Den, a semi-private sanctuary with leather booths, perfect for large groups.
