– Lunch in the city – The Trading House
A few days ago I met my lovely (and ridiculously talented) pal Caroline and we waltzed ourselves over to Bank for a catch up lunch at The Trading House… and when I walked in, my chin nearly hit the floor…
‘Frontier importers and exporters of particular and peculiar eccentricities, curiosities and antiquities.’
The Trading House is a spectacular new pub, which opened just a few weeks ago on Gresham Street. It’s located on the site of the former Bank of New Zealand and many of the original Victorian features have been left exactly as they were, including fixtures and fittings, the stunning dark woods, high ceilings and an amazing spiral staircase…
After we’d taken the amazing space in, we settled down to peruse the extensive menu…
And we shared an insanely yummy trifle! Love trifle. Could eat trifle all day long. But it’s not often I find it on a menu…
The dishes were delicious and amazingly not pricey at all – the entire meal came in at under £37.
The Trading House is right in the heart of the city and we were surrounded by plenty of people in their suits, grabbing a quick lunch in the middle of their working day, as well as those nipping in for a drink…. and also folk like us, having a relaxed meal in stunning surroundings.
The bar offers a world-famous selection of spiced-twist cocktails, a traditionally British G&T list, Champagne, wine, and a vast worldwide selection of craft beers, ales and ciders… and with their live music events in the evenings, it makes for the perfect place to head to to relax after a long day in the office…
Or if you don’t work in an office, head there anyway.
It’s a bit spesh.

We were invited to lunch at The Trading House. And if I hadn’t loved it, I wouldn’t have written about it.
