Caraffini, close to Sloane Square, is a long-standing Chelsea favourite, offering a generous welcome, excellent service, wonderful food and fine wine, all at a very competitive price. Our highly experienced team, and the warm elegance of the ambience, provide a memorably happy and relaxed experience.

We are reopening for business on 12th April 2021. From that date until at least 17th May tables are only available outside, in accordance with Government Covid rules.

Closed on Sundays and Bank Holidays.

We look forward to welcoming you!

The best. Also, if the only available table is outside on the terrace - take it. The heaters and blankets are more than enough and the food and service exemplary as always.

Excellent Italian food and wine with service to match in a busy restaurant but where you could have a good conversation without having to raise your voice. At the more expensive end of places I go, but I would have no hesitation recommending it.

A visit to Caraffini is always a pleasure. The staff are friendly and professional, the ambience is relaxed. The food and wine excellent and for central London the pricing is very reasonable.
