The Faraday

A high-energy bar and kitchen in central Epsom, better for casual food with sports, cocktails and bigger social groups than for quiet dining.

About

The Faraday sits at the edge of what belongs in a restaurants list, but it is useful enough in practice to include as a lower-ranked supporting option. The official site is upfront that it is a high-energy bar with food, which makes it more relevant for groups, sports viewings and informal nights out than for destination dining.\n\nThat is exactly why it should be positioned carefully. It is not here to compete with Dastaan or El Rincon. It is here because people in Epsom do need a broad social bar-and-kitchen option in the centre, and this is one of the more obvious ones.\n\nFor burgers, drinks and casual group meals, it is a defensible back-end inclusion.
