The Delaunay

The 23 Best Restaurants In Covent Garden - London - The Infatuation

"If you want to settle down in a pretty dining room with people you like, and eat steak frites with a bottle of good wine, there are few places better to do this in London than The Delaunay. It’s where we come when we want to pretend we’re more fancy than we are—the decor and service are classy, and the upscale grand cafe serves European food that’ll remind you of a weekend in Vienna. If you’re feeling really minted, it’s also great for drop-ins, a drink, or even breakfast, and it has a take-out counter for coffee and very good pastries." - sinead cranna, jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager

Where To Eat Like You’re Rolling In It, Even When You’re Not - London - The Infatuation

"The beauty of The Delaunay is that it’s a really quite beautiful restaurant. A real looker. But best of all is that it’s a lovely restaurant to eat in as well. Come here in the evening when the light is a bit yellow and everything feels Midnight in Paris if you squint enough, and the menu rapide of tarte flambeé and salad with a glass of wine, and a coffee is under £15." - jake missing

On the Grid : Lundenwic

"Everything about this newly opened cafe is appealing to those who are visually stimulated. The clean, calm and light interior, considered branding, and bright, fresh food and juices on display are all very Instagrammable. Sandwiches and salads change according to seasons, whilst the Little Bread Peddler pastries and Workshop coffees are always on the menu." - Assembly

Delaunay

"The Delaunay was inspired by the grand cafés of Europe but, despite sharing the same buzz and celebrity clientele as its sibling The Wolseley, is not just a mere replica. The all-day menu is more mittel-European, with great schnitzels and wieners." - Michelin Inspector

"The Best Omelette If there's a better way to start your day in London than with an Arnold Bennett omelette at the Delaunay, I don't know it. The Delauney is the latest in elegant, old-fashioned glamour from the group that created The Ivy, Caprice, and The Wolseley, and it's a beautiful, relaxing place to break your fast. The coffee is fantastic, the tea fragrant, and the omelette a rich eggy treat that will see you through to lunch and beyond."
