St John’s Bakery Room in Bermondsey’s trendy Maltby Street will begin a weekday service from 4 March. Originally just a Saturday and Sunday fixture at Maltby Street’s once underground (now distinctly more mainstream) market, the bakery will open 6-10pm throughout the week.

The St John’s folks have installed a new bar, devised a lengthy wine list and created a daily changing menu – very much in the same vein as Bread & Wine and the Smithfield bar.

During the soft launch period, 4-27 March, there will be 50% off all food, Monday-Friday. There are even plans afoot to launch wine tasting dinners. To register your interest contact izzy@stjohnrestaurant.com.
