From the group behind much-loved restaurants Portland and Clipstone, this little bistro is bringing French fine dining back into the London mix. The menu includes both snails and frogs’ legs for starters, rabbit with mustard sauce for main; and for pudding, perfect crêpes Suzette and crème brûlée. The prix fixe lunchtime menu is a more affordable entry point.

Formerly a nomadic gallery, Maximillian William found a bricks-and-mortar home for its programme of emerging talent in 2019. The work here is all about fostering a mixed community of voices with a wide range of perspectives, and this extends to its regular series of talks. Grab a coffee at Kaffeine or breakfast at Rovi, and then start a day of gallery-hopping here before working your way over to Mayfair to visit some of the city’s heaviest hitters.

Rovi is the hidden gem of Jerusalem-born chef Ottolenghi's restaurant empire. Menus include decadent celeriac shawarmas and lobster crumpets that riff on prawn toast. If you can’t bag a table for lunch or dinner, a breakfast of Iranian fritters served with piquillo sauce and a fried egg is a good substitute.
