Best Restaurants Near Liberty London

Some of our favourite London dining hotspots can be found just a stone’s throw from the hubbub of Regent Street, from scene-stealing classics where the table cloths are always starch-white and service slick to hot-ticket kitchens pushing the boundaries of sustainability, this is our pick of the best restaurants near Liberty.

The Barley Mow

Whether you’re looking for a mid-shopping trip glass of wine, long, lazy lunch or slap-up dinner, you can’t go wrong with a visit to The Barley Mow.

Apricity

Conscious cooking is the name of the game at Mayfair restaurant Apricity where everything is finger-licking fresh, hyper seasonal, local and low-waste. Before we get onto the food though, we have to mention the interiors - stripped back, rustic-beautiful, you’ll want to move in. Menus depend on what’s available - think Cornish mackerel, Sussex broad beans and pickled gooseberries or Devonshire hogget and Royal Oak farm mange tout, followed by Esmeralda milk chocolate baked mousse.

It has one of the most famous pavement terraces in London, white table-clothed spots that are harder to book than Glastonbury tickets but it is Scott’s, after all. Known as a Mayfair institution, this is a restaurant that can turn heads and pull crowds with its sensational seafood menu. Oysters and fruits de mer are the way to go, accompanied by a crisp glass of champagne; or fresh slices of cured salmon with a pang of citrus and seasonal greenery.

The Connaught Grill

After reopening in 2022, the mighty Connaught Grill has become one of the most talked-about restaurants in town. Not least because it’s inside the Connaught hotel but it also has Jean-Georges Vongerichten at the helm. There’s an open kitchen where British food takes centre stage, from scallops from Scotland to organic Barnsley lamb chops sourced in Dorset. The Sunday lunches, succulent Hereford beef or organic chicken carved tableside on a silver trolley, are legendary too.

This place is perfect for lunch or an after-hours spending spree, when it’s romantically lit, with wine-pairing small plates whizzing out of the kitchen.
