Review of Le Mercury
07 Aug 07, 15:38
Cheap as frites 
Le Mercury is ridiculously cheap for Upper Street. Mains are just over six quid, starters 3-4. It's on three (albeit fairly cramped) floors, so it's also reasonably easy to get a table, or book for larger parties. The food is ok, very reasonable for the price, but don't go there expecting haute cuisine. The portions also aren't huge, starters like melon and jambon de bayonne came in well arranged but dainty slices. What I think this place is perfect for is a large-ish group of friends to meet for some grub at the start of a night out. You won't be too full to hit bars and clubs afterwards, and your funds won't be too dented either.
