Friends of Ham

You walk into Friends of Ham and immediately get why people keep coming back—there's no faffing about here, just good food and better drinks in a room that knows what it's doing. The whole thing revolves around cured meats and cheese done right, the kind of boards you'd actually want to spend an evening picking through, paired with a wine list that goes beyond the obvious. It's the sort of place where you can tell the staff actually care about what ends up on your plate, whether you're popping in for an after-work drink or settling in for something longer on a Friday night.
