Hotel Positioning
There is nowhere quite like Claridge’s. The hotel began life in 1856 and soon attracted royal notice. During the 1920s it became an English institution; an art deco landmark, loved by movie stars and statesmen, fashion designers and global dignitaries.
To this day, we continue the dedication to service that made us a byword for luxury. Step into the lobby and prepare to be whisked away to an age of timeless art deco glamour. Whether this is your first visit or you are making another fond return, you will be treated like an old friend

For many visitors to Claridge’s, the Foyer is the first thing that captures their imagination. In the centre of the room a striking Chihuly sculpture hangs like a chandelier. The walls shimmer with original art deco mirrors. Music drifts from the grand piano. It is here that breakfast, lunch, dinner and afternoon tea are served, as well as our inventive twists on classic cocktails.

An elegant homage to the hotel’s Art Deco heritage, Claridge’s Restaurant is a timeless spot for contemporary culinary craft. Menus here are a showcase for seasonal, locally sourced produce, with summer flavours unfolding across leisurely lunches and effortlessly elegant evenings.
Claridge’s Restaurant has welcomed New York’s iconic aperitivo bar, Dante, bringing the spirit of downtown Manhattan to Mayfair. Guests can enjoy its award-winning cocktails alongside all-American classics, delivered with flair in true Claridge’s style.
• L’epicerie
L’Epicerie at Claridge’s offers a chef’s table experience like no other. Set within Claridge’s hallowed kitchens, this beautiful space has been designed to seat 14 guests and offers front row seats to the culinary theatre of the kitchen, as dishes are prepared and presented on the striking marble pass. From lunch gatherings to immersive interactive dinners, canard à la presse to freshly-baked soufflés, each menu at L’Epicerie is curated bespoke for your occasion.
• The Fumoir
Discreetly tucked away in Claridge’s art deco interior, The Fumoir is where those in the know have enjoyed a quiet drink in London since 1929.
By day, sip a cappuccino and snack on Claridge’s fried chicken. Come by for pre-theatre drinks such as a signature Fumoir Negroni. Or drop in for a vodka martini nightcap, perfectly mixed and served in an ice-chilled glass. As William Klein portraits gaze down moodily from the walls, this is a place to settle in, enjoy a luxurious cocktail and relish the moment.
• Claridge’s Artspace Café
Open daily with a focus on breakfast and lunch, Claridge’s ArtSpace Café offers a vibrant menu that shifts with the seasons. Discover signature crêpes, market-fresh salads and ArtSpace specials, from lobster benedict to a lamb shoulder flatbread that nods to sun-kissed shores.
Artful patisserie is served throughout the day, in miniature and made-to-share editions. New additions include cakes and tartlets bursting with berries and a pistachio Paris-Brest that’s autumn in a nutshell.
Browse the gallery-like patisserie counter and enjoy your pick in the café’s sleek, marble interior – the work of renowned British architectural designer, John Pawson. Or, with everything available to take away, savour Claridge’s en plein air for delicious Mayfair days.
• Claridge’s Bar
Champagnes and cocktails, served in style. There is nowhere quite like Claridge’s Bar.
To complement David Collins Studio’s art deco-influenced interior, we have sourced an extensive collection of drinks – from rare champagnes to sought-after spirits. Enjoy them as they are, or ask your bartender to mix up a cocktail.
• The Painter’s Room
An ode to the artistic haunts of Provence and Italy, The Painter’s Room is a stylish, art deco hideaway. Step from the monochrome corridor into a cocooning space, where fine lines and bright accents form a striking canvas for creative spirits and seasonal bites.
Cocktails here capture the shifting shades of southern Europe, with a focus on fresh flavours from small-batch labels. Original mixology distils the heritage and craft of Mediterranean climes, while a carefully curated wine list serves up the finest vintages by the glass.
The Painter’s Room is the work of BOS Studio, whose pared-back palette is complemented by thoughtful nods to the hotel’s golden age aesthetic. Gently reflecting the light from the rose-framed skylight, the striking centrepiece is an intricate stained-glass mirror, created by London-based artist Annie Morris.
Effortlessly elegant, stop by for a cocktail, stay for vibrant sharing plates – or choose to keep The Painter’s Room all to yourself, as an intimate retreat from your ballroom gathering.
• Claridge’s Wine Cellar
Dedicated to the art of viniculture, Claridge’s Wine Cellar is an exquisite expression of craft and offers one of the finest wine collections in London. Step inside our dedicated store to sample an eclectic collection of rare vintages, enjoy a bespoke wine tasting experience, select a bottle to enjoy in your suite, or take home the perfect dinner party pairing.
