Restaurant Reviews

66 Great Suffolk St, London SE1 0BL

This Southwark restaurant is from chef and restaurateur Akwasi Brenya-Mensa who started it as a supperclub before bringing a permanent version to the Africa Centre. Here, the menu covers dishes and techniques from across the African continent, with some focus on his own Ghanaian roots.

9 Duke of York Square, Chelsea, London SW3 4LY

Housed in an architecturally eye-catching pavilion on Duke of York Square, Vardo is the Caravan Group's Chelsea outpost. The menu takes a more global approach to suit the area's international audience but you can obviously enjoy a top-tier coffee here too.

The Courtyard, 151 Sydney St, London SW3 6NT

Budget and Chelsea don’t appear in the same sentence very often but this perennially popular Vietnamese spot with a slightly eye-catching name has long been a good place to grab a bowl of tasty noodles in the area. Everything is made from scratch and the laksa is also worth a try.

112 Draycott Ave, London SW3 3AE

Richard Caring’s South Ken Italian has been in operation since the Sixties and has been serving classic, seasonal Italian dishes to the well-heeled SW3 residents since then. The conservatory is the perfect Insta-friendly backdrop and the terrace tables are much-coveted.
