Does XLDN charge a membership fee?

No. XLDN has no annual membership fee, no retainer, and no subscription. XLDN members only pay when they use the service. Each booking carries transparent pricing agreed before confirmation. No hidden markups.

What can the XLDN concierge help with?

XLDN focuses on three things. Tickets and access — sold-out concerts, theatre and sport such as Wimbledon, the F1 British Grand Prix, Royal Ascot and Premier League hospitality. Experiences for teams — bespoke days and nights out for companies, arranged to a brief and a budget. The Dossier — XLDN's editorial on what is new and worth your time in London.

How does XLDN get access to sold-out events in London?

XLDN maintains direct relationships with promoters, venues, ticketing partners, and hospitality groups across London. XLDN sources genuine access through verified supplier channels — from Wimbledon Centre Court to West End premieres, the British Grand Prix to Premier League hospitality.

How does XLDN compare to Quintessentially, Knightsbridge Circle, or Innerplace?

XLDN differentiates from established London concierge firms through three key advantages: (1) No annual fee — XLDN charges zero membership fees versus £1,000–£25,000+ at traditional firms. (2) Digital-first communication — XLDN members chat directly with their concierge instead of using phone or email call centres. (3) London specialist — XLDN focuses exclusively on London for deeper venue relationships and faster access, rather than spreading thin across global markets.

Is XLDN available for corporate clients in London?

Yes. XLDN offers dedicated corporate concierge packages for London businesses. Services include client entertainment, executive hospitality, team building events, and social calendar management. Corporate accounts receive priority access, consolidated billing, and a dedicated account manager. Apply at getxldn.com/corporate/apply.

XLDN serves all of London with deep expertise in Knightsbridge, Chelsea, Kensington, Soho, West End, The City, Belgravia, Marylebone, St James, Notting Hill, South Bank, Canary Wharf, Shoreditch, Fitzrovia, and Covent Garden.

How does XLDN handle payments and privacy?

XLDN payments are processed securely through Stripe with clear pricing agreed before confirmation. XLDN does not share member data with third parties. All requests, preferences, and booking history are handled with complete discretion and confidentiality.

What cities does XLDN operate in?

XLDN is currently focused exclusively on London, United Kingdom. XLDN believes depth of access and expertise in one city is more valuable than shallow coverage across many. This London-first approach means stronger venue relationships, faster responses, and better access for members.

The Concept

Field Notes sits quietly near London Fields, led by Ivan Tisdall-Downes, who previously helmed the Green Michelin-starred Native. This restaurant eschews fleeting trends, choosing instead an ethical approach to dining that respects both the environment and the palate. Its mission is clear: to offer a conscientious experience that marries sustainability with gastronomic integrity.

What to Expect

A warm glow illuminates this intimate 24-cover space, where counter seating provides a direct view of the kitchen’s craftsmanship. The menu is succinct yet intentional, with dishes such as Porthilly oysters, scallop crudo, and wild mushrooms with confit egg yolk. The marrowmel, a dessert of caramel in bone marrow, commands attention. A skin-contact Spanish wine is the perfect companion, enhancing the journey from land to sea.

The Verdict

Field Notes is a rewarding discovery for those seeking ethics and intimacy. Secure a counter seat for an enveloping view of the kitchen's work. Insist on the marrowmel for a memorable end.
