2019 Oscar and Golden Globes Films with London Restaurant Locations | Eater London
"Exteriors and principle shooting of Yorgos Lanthimos’s 10-times Oscar-nominated black comedy The Favourite took place in not-quite-London’s Hatfield House. However, west London’s Hampton Court Palace is the setting of several of the film’s scenes. The long wood-panelled Cartoon Gallery, grand Fountain Court and King Henry VIII kitchens all have starring roles alongside Olivia Colman, Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz. In a film of blue iced cakes, duck races and fruit-pelting games, the King Henry VIII kitchens were anything but anachronistic — Queen Anne spent time in residence at Hampton Court, enjoying the proceeds of those very same kitchens. A place for cakes to be baked, deer to be spit roasted and beef steaks to be stored in case the Queen’s gout-afflicted legs needed soothing, the kitchen is display-only these days. So if you’re after some cake to gorge on, Hampton Court has three cafés, one serving ‘Tudor-style pies.’" - Sophie Wilkinson
