Where to Eat in London

Going to London and not having tea is like going to Paris and not seeing the Eiffel Tower. We recommend starting at sketch, located in a beautiful 18th-century building in Mayfair. Afternoon tea is offered in the restaurant’s signature pink dining room, surrounded by framed sketches by David Shrigley. Sample caviar, quail eggs, tea sandwiches, and macaroons as you sip sophisticated blends sourced from around the world. At night, the quirky tea room transforms into a restaurant and cocktail bar helmed by French master chef Pierre Gagnaire.

If you need more recommendations for your foodie tour, we suggest the modern European atmosphere of The Ivy Cafe Marylebone, the Art Deco glamour of The Wolseley, the market-fresh seafood at Scotts Mayfair, and the decadent Austrian elegance of Fischers Marylebone.
