64 Goodge Street is a new restaurant from Woodhead Restaurant Group, which opened in early August 2023. A former travel agent in our beloved Fitzrovia (64’s older siblings Portland and Clipstone are just round the corner), we were hugely excited by the opportunity this blank slate of a site afforded us.We’ve been able to build from the bottom up, and therefore design every inch of space to meet our hope for 64 Goodge Street. Namely, that it is a space in which guests feel utterly taken care of. We are open Monday to Saturday for lunch and dinner. We very much hope to see you soon.

A perfect dining experience. The food was plate-lickingly good - the fallow deer was melt-in-the-mouth delicious, and the service was exceptional: intelligent, knowledgeable and charming. We felt totally at home and, in a city with a million restaurants to try, this is one we will come back to.

I loved the food - scallops and halibut were great. The service was a bit slow but for us it didn't matter as much. It was lovely to have live piano music. It gets a little noisy as the venue is quite small

We had a wonderful time. Food was amazing and the information from the sommelier was great...but,please don't assume we know as much as you... sometimes less is more. I am not sure i could have managed a 10 course menu! Thank you for looking after us so well. It was lovely to get to speak to David after having seen him so often on my emails!
