From dazzling dining destinations to Docklands walking tours 😍 🌱

The best dining destinations in St James's and Regent Street

From Michelin-starred dining to cosy eateries that are perfect for post-lockdown reunions with loved ones, one central London neighbourhood has it all. This summer, it’s time to seize the moment with your nearest and dearest in the beautiful district of St James's and neighbouring Regent Street, with mouth-watering options to suit every palate.

Get a taste of la dolce vita at Franco's, an elegant Italian restaurant that has served visitors to St James's for over 70 years. Be whisked away to the City of Lights at traditional brasserie Maison Francois. Or feast on contemporary Nordic cuisine that looks (almost) too good to eat at the Michelin-starred Aquavit. Other hotspots include Ikoyi, which offers a modern twist on West African flavours, gorgeous gastropub grub at Beau Brummell, and Fortnum & Mason's celebrated restaurant, 45 Jermyn Street (look out for the caviar trolley!)

Just off Regent Street, you'll find the foodie paradise that is Heddon Street. Highlights here include Aussie brunch spot Ziggy Green, gorgeous Galician tapas at Sabor, and celebrated sustainable restaurant Fallow.

With so many dazzling destinations to choose from, get ready for a summer that's packed with gastronomical delights.
