Crispin to Sprinkle Its Culinary Magic on Clapham’s Studio Voltaire

Yes, you heard it right – Crispin is opening its latest venture in the space formerly occupied by Juliet’s Quality Foods, and it’s shaping up to be a cracker. Dubbed Crispin at Studio Voltaire, the restaurant is poised to become the new darling of the local dining scene, with Michael Miles at the helm. With a CV boasting stints at the esteemed Counter71 and Manteca, Michael is gearing up to dazzle us with a menu that sings the praises of the British Isles’ finest produce.

While the full lineup of dishes is still under wraps, we’re teased with promises of “classic seasonal dishes” that pay homage to Michael’s tenure at Manteca – think sumptuous fresh pasta, and meats and fish kissed by charcoal grill. It’s enough to make your mouth water in anticipation. And what’s a meal without a tipple to match? Fear not, as Crispin’s openings are synonymous with an outstanding wine offering. Alexandra Price, the group’s head of wine, is curating a list that’s sure to impress, with a spotlight on artisanal winemakers and wines on tap. Keep your eyes peeled for special wine dinners that promise an evening of indulgence for the oenophiles among us.

The transformation of the space is an adventure in itself. Designer Jermaine Gallacher is drawing inspiration from the chic 90s Conran restaurants, planning to envelop the venue in a striking brown and bright blue Kvadrat curtain. It sounds like it’s going to be a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.

We’re on tenterhooks waiting for more juicy details as the opening approaches, but one thing’s for sure: Crispin at Studio Voltaire is set to be a showstopper. So, Clapham, get ready to welcome your new favourite spot, where the marriage of impeccable dishes and exquisite wines will create a dining experience to remember. Stay tuned, and we’ll keep you in the loop with all the latest developments.
