Originally opened in 1991 in the heart of Covent Garden, Christopher’s has established itself as one of London’s best American restaurants, featured in Condé Nast, GQ, Tatler & Harper's Bazaar to name but a few. Comprising of three spaces that recall the heady-glamour of the Modern American era, Christopher’s brings you a Martini Bar on the ground floor, a glamorous Restaurant on the first floor and an intimate Club Room on the lower ground floor for private events. Housed in a Grade II listed building with an interesting past of its own, including opening in 1870 as London’s first licensed casino, Christopher's offers an extensive all day dining menu of Modern American cuisine. Weekend Brunch is also a specialty where healthy options are on offer alongside indulgent brunch favourites, including our signature french toast.

It’s a beautiful place, especially with Christmas decorations but it was very quiet given for a Friday night. It was lacking atmosphere not to mention it was cold and a little uncomfortable. The food was nice but nothing super special for the prices, especially the drinks. Expected more from such upmarket place but I guess this is the new London.

A very positive experience except some of the seating in the bar area is very dark so it’s difficult to read the menus and see your food.

Absolutely loved my first visit here! We were hungry after spin class so went for two mains because why not?! My Huevos California were delicious and perfectly balanced with generous portions of avocado. The French Toast with peaches and mascarpone was actually divine. I can't wait to return!

The customer service was exceptional. The chocolate French toast is a must have! The Eggs Royale were incredible but the crab cake was below average and we found small pieces of shell in the crab meat, this put us off from having anymore. Overall, would still visit again as the service and French toast were amazing.
