North Pole

You'll probably recognise a few old faces from the Trafalgar in here, it seems this is where they get new jobs when they're sick of dealing with loud Americans day in day out. North Pole manages to evade the tourist set and offers high class seafood, classy sunday lunches, pasta dishes and potent cocktails. There's pavement seating for those brave enough to face the weather, a word of warning though - watch the step on the way out.

This Greenwich restaurant and bar has a number of different styles and moods. The restaurant, which offers modern European cooking with an emphasis on French food has a décor which is elegant and understated. The bar has subdued lighting and deep comfy, leather settees and cosy corners. The futuristic South Pole DJ Bar, which is open Thursday to Saturday has dramatic lighting, minimalist decor and pumping sounds, or listen to the superb resident pianist play while dining. Carrying on the musical theme, a resident live band swings jazz, funk and latin sounds every Sunday evening. Those of you who don't fancy a drink in the bar before dinner can head directly into the restaurant from the outside entrance on Greenwich High Road.
