Below are the feasting dishes available for larger group bookings at St. JOHN Bread & Wine through Winter 2010.  The feasting theory is that you pre-order one, or a maximum, two dishes for your starter, main and dessert from the choices below thus enhancing the sense of occasion that brings a large group together to dine.  So, for example, your party could start with Crab Meat, Toast & Mayonnaise, have Pheasant for the main course and finish off with a Queen of Puddings. Once you have decided on the dishes you would like, either call us on 020 7251 0848 between 10am-11pm Mon-Fri, or email your choices to reservations@stjohnrestaurant.com.
