The Clink Restaurant at HMP Brixton opened in February 2014 as the third restaurant operated by The Clink Charity in the UK. It offers full-time work to up to 30 prisoners in the restaurant and kitchen, where they train towards gaining nationally recognised City Guilds NVQs. The charitable project is dedicated to reducing reoffending rates, promoting the rehabilitation and reintegration of prisoners, and helping graduates find employment within the catering and hospitality industry upon their release. The restaurant also showcases the wealth of quality, fresh, and organic produce available throughout the UK, with many vegetables and herbs being sourced from the prison gardens.

Nestled within the unique setting of a prison, The Clink restaurant in Brixton offers diners an exceptional culinary experience that seamlessly blends fine dining with social rehabilitation. Guests rave about the delicious food, including exceptional vegan and gluten-free options, all served by friendly and engaging staff, many of whom are inmates training for future careers. The atmosphere is thoughtfully designed, making it easy to forget one is dining in a prison. With an emphasis on community and personal stories, the dining experience is both enlightening and enjoyable, making The Clink a worthwhile destination, especially for Sunday lunch. Reservations are highly recommended.

We went for Sunday lunch and were blown away by the amazing food (with vegan and gluten-free options!), unique experience, incredibly friendly staff, and fantastic initiative. 5 out of 5 stars.

Great initiative, good food, nice chat with our waiter, very well organised. An experience to recommend to all, and definitely worth supporting. If you go, do not be late or you will not get in!

We had a fabulous experience meal at The Clink last week. There were 3 of us in our party and each of us had 2 courses and all shared a dessert. Our meals were beautifully presented, substantial portions and of fine dining quality. We were served by Joel who was very friendly approachable. He shared his experience with us of life within the prison and also his hopes for the future. We really wish him the best of luck. The experience of being within a prison felt very real, whilst providing a lovely setting in the restaurant. Would highly recommend.

I went there today for lunch with my Mum. I thought it would be a great experience for us both and had heard very good things. We were the only ones there!! The food was, at best, average and the portions tiny! My monkfish was overcooked, the chunky chips were undercooked. It's not a cheap place either. What was particularly annoying was the amount of staff just hanging around in there chatting so it was quite noisy.

Me and my partner of 8 years (anniversary meal) went to Clink for a Sunday roast, and it was absolutely superb. Food is nothing short of sublime. Very well enjoyed. We were served by Xavier, honestly a top man with a lot of chat and manners. Had a good laugh. Hygiene was great, restaurants can take a learning from here. Thanks so much everyone.
