Restaurant Reviews

400 Oxford St, London W1A 1AB

The Corner Restaurant at Selfridges is just that - a restaurant that takes over a light-drenched corner room in the store. Right now they've got top chef Jackson Boxer (of Brunswick House and Orasay) in charge of a menu which they're calling an "experimental menu of seasonal dishes". Fans of the chef should definitely be using this as a rest stop while shopping on Oxford Street.

2 St James’s Market, London SW1Y 4RP

Chefs Will Murray and Jack Croft met in the kitchens of Dinner by Heston and then teamed up with James Robson to come up with Fallow. They run big on sustainability, so they use interesting cuts and everything is super seasonal and focuses mainly on British and Irish produce. Fallow’s commitment to sustainability and seasonality extends to even growing its own mushrooms in-house - how’s that for food miles?

Coal Drops Yard, Stable Street, London N1C 4AB

Casa Pastor serves up Mexican classics like slow-cooked pork tacos and tuna tostadas with the outside heated area Plaza Pastor sharing a similar menu, potent cocktails and featuring live music and DJs at the weekend. It’s an excellent party spot in the centre of Coal Drops Yard.

27 Albemarle Street, Mayfair, London W1S 4HZ

This high-end Itlaian restaurant comes from the same people behind Coya, Amazonico and Bar des Pres. It's taken southern Italy as the inspiration in a restaurant that's made of a warren of rooms and bars. The room with the retractable glass roof will be a hit on warm days, while their veal tomahawk Milanese is a must.
