Colbert

"How into French brasseries are you? If the answer is very, then you’ll really like Colbert. This all-day spot on Sloane Square is a bit like being slapped around the face by a macaron-wielding maman who’s also singing Aux Champs-Elysées into an old-fashioned microphone. But in a good way. Expect all the usual classics like steak tartare, oysters, and îles flottantes. For summer days, there’s also a Parisian-style terrace." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak

"Do you have a strong suspicion that when your pup does that twitchy run thing in their sleep that they’re dreaming of legging it through Jardin De Luxembourg while wearing a tiny beret? Perfect, it’s time for you and your chien to head for Chelsea’s Colbert. This all-day brasserie serves classic French dishes like steak tartare, soupe à l’oignon, and fresh macarons. Plus, in true Parisian cafe style, there’s also some pretty lovely outdoor terrace seating. " - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna

"With its posters, chessboard tiles and red leather seats, Colbert bears more than a passing resemblance to a Parisian pavement café. It’s an all-day, every day operation and the menu lists all the French classics, so you can pop in for breakfast or a croque monsieur or linger over a steak Diane." - Michelin Inspector

"Ah, sweet, sweet grandparents. Literally, sweet. They spent your childhood giving you a steady supply of tuck-shop goodies and Werther’s Originals from their glove box behind your parents backs. Finally repay the favour with a trip to Colbert. This seriously French all-day brasserie on Sloane Square has plenty of patisserie, from pistachio macarons to rich chocolate gateaux, as well as mains like steak tartare and duck confit. Inside you’ll find old school French movie posters and comfy red leather seating, but there’s also a boulevard style terrace out front if that takes their fancy on a sunny day." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing

"Near Sloane Square This all-day bistro on Sloane Square looks, feels, and smells like a cafe in Paris. Ordering here is simple. Basically, if there’s an apostrophe, circumflex, or the word ‘steak’ involved then you know it’s a good bet. Will this be the best French food you’ve tried in London? Nope. But if you focus on the shiny red leather seating and the terrace outside, you can have a top time avoiding the real world." - Team Infatuation
