Mayfair

About the restaurant

Chef Larry Jayasekara has approached the project as a custodian, preserving and enhancing the 4-story building. Classically trained but undefined by any particular style, Larry offers a cuisine that, at its core, is all about the joy of eating. Given his 20 years of experience in fine dining, he has curated relationships with a select list of fishers and artisan producers to source the finest ingredients in Britain and overseas. With access to regenerative mixed farmland in Northamptonshire, The Cocochine kitchen enjoys fruit, vegetables, seasonal flowers and livestock, including game as well as native and rare-breed pigs direct from the farm. The menu features modern and refined dishes such as Tanera Island Poached Langoustine Leek, Morel, Lemongrass and 40-day Aged Rowler Estate Beef Fillet Maitake, Red Wine Jus.
Every element of the restaurant is considered, and the experience, from the outset and throughout, is about personal connection and old-school hospitality.

Canary Wharf

About the restaurant

Blacklock a modern version of the Great British chophouse. Nestled cosily in the corner of Canary Wharf, underneath the train tracks of the North Dock. Feel the comforting rumble of trains passing overhead conjuring memories of some of our favourite haunts underneath the bridges in NYC. We take the best meat in the country from the award-winning farmer and butcher Philip Warren in Cornwall. We cook chops simply over our real charcoal grill with a little help from vintage Blacklock irons and serve it all up alongside cocktails that give back and wine on tap in our atmospheric chop mecca. On Sundays we serve a Sunday Roast (almost as good as Mum's). Bookings and Walk-Ins available.

Always a good experience at Blacklock. This was probably the best so far as the prime rib was so good

Fitzrovia

About the restaurant

Charmingly unique, Drunch in Fitzrovia is a must for those tired of the same typical Mediterranean dining experience. From street level Drunch looks like a Parisian restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere. The best seats in the house are by the wide windows where you can sit and watch the world go by.
However, a few steps below and guests are transported to a whole other world. Drunch's basement is straight out of a fairytale – its bare stone walls, with their arches and low lighting, enhance the atmospheric ambience. It is the ideal setting for romance and a real surprise to everyone who discovers it.
We serve brunch from 10am - 5pm with an All day menu that offers starters, mains & desserts from 10am - 22:30pm.

Arrived at 4pm for lunch so had good choice of tables. Placed in window surrounded by exotic plants - felt like I was on holiday. Food was excellent - I had rib eye and greek meatball starters both superb. Everyone who served us was lovely, friendly and attentive - Khairo was our main waiter, several other people came along all very attentive and kind. All in all an excellent experience we will be back.

Victoria

About the restaurant

A world of spices and colours, sizzles and smells. Of secret recipes and even more secret ingredients, passed across tables in noisy restaurants and down through generations. Flavours we can’t even describe. In combinations you wouldn’t believe.

For us, there’s nothing more exciting than discovering these tastes. It’s our passion. Our obsession. It gets us up in the morning and into the kitchen, never knowing exactly what we’ll come across next.

About the restaurant

Located on the Lower Ground Floor of the luxury shopping location, the cafe features a striking interior décor which mirrors that of the famous Blue Box Cafe in the Tiffany flagship store on Fifth Avenue in New York City.

We are unfortunately not able to cater for a SOYA Allergy or gluten free and dairy free allergy combined, or a diabetic customer for our Afternoon Tea offering or breakfast due to the nature of a set menu and our culinary offering.
