About Noble Rot Lamb’s Conduit

Noble Rot is now a global name, with its quarterly magazine and multiple venues earning a reputation for making wine feel relaxed and for everyone, without compromising on the seriousness of their lists. Lambs Conduit is the original Fitzrovia location, with the street named after William Lambe, a wealthy Tudor who built a conduit to supply the city with water.

The wine bar and restaurant opened in 2015, with a handful of coveted outdoor tables for warmer months and plenty of light streaming into the bar through the large front windows. The food is bistro-style and unapologetically wine-centric, with an excellent value two- or three-course set lunch. Whatever you choose, start with a glass of something delicious alongside a Comté beignet and pickled walnut ketchup while perusing the food and wine menus.

For those experimenting and exploring, tasting pours of 75ml sit alongside standard 125ml glasses, while those looking for an upgrade have a full page of Coravin selections by the glass to choose from.

The staff are genuinely helpful when navigating the extensive iPad bottle list of over 1,200 wines. Sparkling is particularly strong, focusing on artisanal grower Champagne alongside a smattering of grand marque, thoughtful inclusion of English, and other high-quality sparkling alternatives. The still wine list offers both breadth and depth, featuring clever sourcing from classic producers and exciting low-intervention newcomers, with a mix of both current releases and mature bottles to suit every palate. The experience rounds out with a fun spirits selection including liqueurs, eau-de-vie, Marc de Bourgogne and various brandies.

Book ahead for the restaurant, though the bar does welcome walk-ins. Before you leave, pick up the latest issue of the Noble Rot magazine and pop across the road to their retail shop, Shrine to the Vine, to take a bottle home – a perfect way to extend the Noble Rot experience.

They also have venues in Soho and Mayfair, each with slightly different wine listings and ambience, ensuring there’s always something new to discover if you frequent all three.
