This is Queen Elizabeth's favourite French restaurant and only a 15 or 20 minute walk from the apartment. Belalamy's has also won Tatler magazine’s Most Civilised Restaurant award. Bellamy’s is everything that the modern breed of brash, look-at-me restaurants is not: calm, understated, unobtrusive and charmingly old-fashioned, with a few little quirks to remind you that this is London, not Paris: there are fish fingers and Welsh rarebit on the menu, for instance. If you do see the Queen - say hi from me ;)

Poppie’s is renowned for their authentic fish and chips - it's unhealthy but Poppie's have won an award for the best fish and chips in the country! Atmosphere is good (particularly if you book at table at the bar or near the DJ and glitter ball).

Romantic English restaurant with excellent seasonal menus that change daily. Reservations recommended and I suggest a table on the ground floor near the window (basement is ok but not quite as charming).

Sister restaurant to the The Ivy on West Street. The Ivy Soho Brasserie is a larger, more upbeat and modern version of the original fine dining Ivy restaurant on West Street. I recommend visiting both. Art deco interiors and sophisticated dining.

Incredible Chinese restaurant . Arrive for lunch around 12:00 so you don't wait for a table (you can't reserve). I recommend the fried chicken, lamb shoulder and fried Horlicks ice-cream bao (steamed buns). The hot spiced clementine and ginger tea is really good too.
