Dining
Dinner, arranged around where you are staying
We are not a restaurant and we hold no tables. What we do is ask well, on your behalf, knowing which rooms suit a Tuesday board dinner and which are worth the effort on a Saturday, and then arrange the evening around the apartment you are staying in.
What we arrange
Four ways to eat well here
A table
Tell the concierge the night, the number and the mood, and the desk works through what is actually available rather than sending you a list to ring yourself. Popular rooms go weeks ahead, so the earlier we know, the better we do.
A private dining room
For a birthday, a board dinner or a family gathering: rooms that seat eight to forty, with their own service and, usually, a minimum spend rather than a room charge. We put two or three forward with the terms in writing.
A chef in the apartment
Dinner cooked in your own kitchen, from a working supper to a tasting menu, with the shopping, the service and the clearing up handled. Charged separately from the stay and confirmed before the day.
The evening around it
A car there and back, a table moved when a match runs long, flowers on the table, a bottle you asked for waiting. The parts nobody thinks about until they are missing.
How it works
Ask once, hear back with the terms
Tell our concierge the night, how many of you there are and what kind of evening it is. It answers at any hour, with a member of the team behind it from 09:00 to 22:00, London time.
The desk comes back with what is genuinely available, including the restaurants we would honestly recommend over the ones that are simply famous.
Nothing is held until the restaurant confirms it, and you hear the terms, the deposit if there is one and the cancellation policy before you commit.
