Where Oisín Rogers actually eats in London

landlord & co-owner, The Devonshire (Soho) · 14 picks

Oisín Rogers is the landlord of The Devonshire, the Soho pub he opened in November 2023 with Flat Iron's Charlie Carroll and chef Ashley Palmer-Watts, and which became one of the hardest tables in London almost immediately. He ran The Guinea Grill in Mayfair and The Ship in Wandsworth before that. These are the places he sends people to himself.
