Meal for two about £230 Tavern. An inviting word that conjures visions of frothing tankards, merriment and a ripple of debauchery. Visit the website of this new Shoreditch bistro and you’ll be greeted by a Dutch Golden Age painting: nuns and babies sit cheek-by-jowl with free-flowing wine, children smoking pipes, and a dog waiting patiently for a kind hand or clumsy spillage. Down in Tavern’s loos, each cubicle is crowned with a panel from Hogarth’s cautionary tale, A Rake’s Progress.
