Restaurant Reviews

13 Eccleston Yards, London SW1W 9AZ

This diminutive wine shop and bar is devoted to vegan wine brand Amie. There’s a focus on rose, although they do a boutique range of their own-brand French wines. Sit and sip inside or outside on the terrace. There’s also a popular space for booking out for parties.

The Rubens at The Palace, 39 Buckingham Palace Rd, London SW1W 0PS

Billed as serving English dishes with a twist, this hotel restaurant celebrates the art of tableside dining with all manner of treats. Smoked salmon is carved beside you and both mains and desserts include flambe options for a bit of theatrics.

This bakery has a team of international chefs producing everything you need in the form of bread and patisserie in an upmarket café. Name a variety of loaf from anywhere in the world and it’s probably on offer here. There are also freshly baked flatbreads from the clay oven to enjoy for savoury brunches at sharing tables out the back.

Westminster Kingsway College, 76 Vincent Square, London SW1P 2PD

Play your part in supporting the chefs of the future at this smart brasserie that offers high-standard, contemporary, seasonal food at great-value prices, thanks to the role it plays as a teaching kitchen. You’ll be served by students (both chefs and front of house staff) from the college.
