Le Café du Marché is a haven of quaintness and culinary delights tucked away from the bustling crowds of Clerkenwell in its own courtyard. Stepping into the restaurant is like stepping into rural France - it has plenty of charm and the bare bricks and beams give it a thoroughly rustic feel. The fare is strictly, whole-heartedly and mouth-wateringly French. Particularly exquisite is the canard a l'orange, which makes you wonder if a return to more traditional cooking is not long overdue. And if you're adverse to meat, fear not, as there are plenty of tasty vegetarian dishes on the menu. And of course you can't eat French without a bottle of red wine, it's reasonably priced and provides the perfect accompaniment to your meal - especially if there's a jazz evening on.
