Evelyn's Table

The restaurant serves modern European dishes and wines from lesser-known artisan producers. An evolving five-course menu is built on Head Chef James Goodyear’s formative experiences and a love of Scandinavian and Japanese techniques. In 2022 the restaurant was awarded 1 Michelin star for its high-quality cooking. Evelyn’s Table is available for private hire, so if you want to celebrate something with just your closest ones — the doors are open!
Sessions Art Club
Set on the 4th floor of an 18th-century courthouse, Sessions Art Club is a restaurant, bar, art, and performance space. This atmospheric urban sanctuary is surrounded by three terraces with fireplaces, a rooftop bar, and a beautiful garden. Led by Chef Florence Knight, the restaurant offers a refined, seasonal menu inspired by British, French, and Italian cuisine. Treat yourself to brown shrimp croquettes, delicious duck, clementine sorbet, or ginger cake. With its private feel, Sessions Art Club is the perfect place to escape from bustling city life.
Sucre
In 2001, Sucre opened its doors in Buenos Aires. Two decades later, Argentinian chef Fernando Trocca and bartender Renato Giovannoni joined forces again to bring it to the heart of Soho. New Sucre is set inside a gorgeous 310-year-old building that used to be the London College of Music. At Sucre, they cook the Argentine way, using embers rather than live flame. Here, all the dishes are multicultural in influence but South American at the root. The restaurant’s menus can be enjoyed both sharing style and traditionally.
