Best Contemporary French Restaurants in Farringdon

My girlfriend and I frequent Palm Court Brasserie every Christmas which has become a bit of a tradition. We always seem to sit on the same table which we love. This time, as ever before, was no exception. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was great and the food was tremendous and good value considering its location. My girlfriend has a milk allergy, and was immediately put at ease when the waiter came over and walked her through the menu in terms of what could be modified etc. which always makes the experience much more enjoyable for her. This was further enhanced at the end when the manager also checked the her allergy was adequately catered for. Overall, a fantastic experience and we’re already looking forward visiting again next year.

Afternoon tea at the savoy is a lovely! We had come up from Eastbourne and just been to the Van Gogh exhibition at the National Gallery and then walked round to the savoy. We have been a couple of times, and really enjoy it. It is know in the newly refurbished room with very comfy chairs...... important for tea i think. Er added a glass of champagne each before we started which as they have a good selection to choose from was well worth it. One of the gueast was gluten free and there selection was as lovely as the others. There was no feeling that you have to finish then leave which happens in some other afternon teas, we have tried a few, and we keeping coming back to the savoy. Te staff where lovely, inarticular the man who explained all abut the ball room down stairs, whichn we went tom see. i loved thhe pictures of Guests around the htel, and particuarily liked the pictures on the wall of the ballet dancers. The addition of the bar in the room works very well.

So it was 5 stars all around. The service was probably 5.5 stars even thought the waiters were Italian not French but for me good service is attentive at all time while not being intrusive. My wife had one cocktail with the meal and wash tentative in ordering and the waiter watached observantly and when she was not drinking came and asked if everything was OK and she said she would have liked it a little more sweet than sour so he took it away and adjusted. Happy wife happy life as they say.

Gorgeous restaurant felt really cosy and Christmassy even though it’s huge! Fab waiter and great value Prix Fixe (m-f until 7pm) Will def be back! Also a couple of celebrities spotted ◡̈

We had the most wonderful dining experience. From our arrival to the good byes, the entire team at Club Gascon was amazing and made our evening very special. The food was superb and the wine pairing worked wonderfully. Hope to come back!
