A hidden gem between Neal Street and Tottenham Court Road. No TV, no jukebox - a proper old-fashioned boozer, with very resonable prices.

Bilbao is a bit of nightmare for vegetarians; usual staples such as potato and mushroom tapas are rarely served and there's only so many portions of tortilla you can stomach.
This place would be welcome even if the food weren't as good as it is. Its lunchtime menu is a bargain at 10.50 euros - and the food is fabulous, really filling fare making full use of the wonderful local produce and, unlike so many other vegetarian restaurants, it serves great desserts - no worthy dried fruit compote, you can go for the full-on chocolate blow out.
