Belgravia

Now in its fifth year, fashion designer Anya Hindmarch’s Ice Cream Project is already raising eyebrows with flavour combinations that are strangely familiar (thanks to the theme of leaning on common larder/household items) yet a little perplexing when delivered in an ice-cream scoop or a 500ml takeaway tub. Indeed, ‘unexpectedly delicious’ is the tagline, but we don’t think anyone saw the likes of Euthymol Original Toothpaste coming!

Once again, the Anya Cafe will be the place to be (hot tip: book now – minimum of two people, £50 per person) for the Ice Cream Project Blind Tasting

The team behind The Prince Arthur Belgravia, as well as Arthur's Market in Chelsea, are getting ready to open their next restaurant. This time around, they're going back to Belgravia and are teaming up with boutique hotel The Lowndes Hotel to launch Avi Bistrot. 

This will be a French/American brasserie, with a fair bit of showing from the caviar that was liberally used over at the Prince Arthur. At Avi, you'll find it on dishes like their New York fried chicken & caviar as well as caviar fish and chips. Elsewhere on the menu, you'll find the LA brioche noire lobster roll,

Weezie's brings pizza and wine together, coming from the same team as Amie Wine Studio (and opening next door). We went down to Belgravia to check out London's latest wine bar/pizzeria. 

They already have two other Belgravia pubs, but gastropub group Cubitt House clearly love the area as they're already making plans for a third. Next up to get the group's attention is the old post office on Eccleston Street.

Plans are already afoot to turn the former post office into The Duke of Connaught pub and hotel. The name is a reference to the building's use during the early part of the 20th century, when it was The Duke of Connaught’s Soldiers & Sailors Home with bedrooms, a bar and a billiard room.

If permission is granted, the new pub will feature a bar on

It's one of London's best restaurants and has two Michelin stars to boot. But did you know that there's a new(ish) bar at A. Wong and you can try some of their food down there? We went along to see what they're serving up. 

We're only early in 2026 and we're already bringing you news of another new pizzeria gearing up to open in London. Weezie's has taken over the old Biscuiteers site in Eccleston Yards, just around the corner from Victoria Station. The people behind it, Will and Abbie Sandbach, run the Amie Wine Studio, which is right next door in the Belgravia development. They're describing Weezie's, which is named after Abbie's grandmother, as a pizza-focused restaurant and wine bar.

On the menu will be a range of thin-crust pizzas in the London/New Haven-style, along with various small plates.

About a year after opening, Wildflowers are changing things a little bit in their bar. What was once simply their upstairs wine bar (albeit in a space which we really loved), is being transformed into a new Basque-style wine and pinxtos bar called Bar

What was Ganymede in Belgravia is being reborn, transforming it into The Elizabeth, with a little hand from Anthony Demetre. 

The chef, whose restaurant Wild Honey currently holds a Michelin star, is creating a new menu for the relaunch, with a look towards his signature "bistronomy" roots. On the menu, that translates into dishes

One of the biggest draws of Claude Bosi's two-Michelin-starred Brooklands is the fantastic terrace, one of the best rooftop dining spaces in London. However, the stunning terrace perhaps isn't the ideal space for a fine-dining Michelin-level experience, and now it's getting something of a summer overhaul.

Taking over this space for the whole of Summer is a new pop-up

Not wanting to be left out of the general London obsession with noodles, super luxe hotel The Peninsula London is getting in on the trend. They've just opened up a noodle bar that serves up a tight menu of noodle dishes alongside Gweilo beers from Hong Kong and the bar's own cocktail list.

The chefs behind the menu are the multi-award-winning Hou Yurui who has worked on the concept with Jonnie Liang,

Tom Brown has returned to the dining room where he got his first big break in London. With his name now on the door, we went to Knightsbridge to see what the chef was cooking up. 

2025 continues to be a year of dining well in London pubs. The latest central London boozer to take things up a notch is Belgravia pub The Alfred Tennyson, which is just getting ready to unveil a new upstairs dining room.

Alfie's will offer a very different menu to the general pub food downstairs, with a series of dishes created by the pub's Executive chef Ben Tish and Head Chef Stevie Phillip

The Prince Arthur is a new pub in Belgravia that's doing things a little differently, with a Basque food menu and lots of (own brand) caviar on offer. We went along to check it out.

If there's one thing that 2024 has taught us, it's that the London pub scene is very much still alive and kicking. We started the year strong with crowds thronging the newly opened Devonshire and since then we've had a slew of places serving up interesting offerings in the city's old boozers from new Irish pubs to more wine-led offerings. Now as one year ends and another looms, we have

There's been quite a shake up over at the Pantechnicon building in Belgravia with the newest arrival being the French restaurant Amélie. We went to check it out.
