City AM has featured a selection of London's leading counter dining establishments. The article highlights several venues, including the recently opened Dover Street Counter in Mayfair, which is described as a New York-influenced spot known for its martinis and menu.
Bentley’s Oyster Bar and Grill is recognised as an established icon for seafood, offering a special deal on oysters and bubbles during specific evening hours. Other notable mentions include BiBi, praised for its intimate dining space and Indian cuisine, and 40 Maltby Street in Bermondsey, which has been a consistent top restaurant for 15 years.
The list also features Kiln for its intense Thai cooking, Koya for its Japanese udon and ramen, and Tiella, a newer trattoria on Columbia Road. The article suggests that counter dining can be ideal for solo diners or intimate meals for two.
