London Michelin Star Restaurants 2019/20

A guide to London Michelin Star Restaurants 2019/20, which shows you...

  • Which cuisines and styles are popular in the capital's contemporary fine dining scene
  • Which London Michelin Star restaurants suit your tastes and budget
  • Where to find ONE STAR, TWO STAR and THREE STAR London Michelin Star restaurants

Ever wanted to eat at one of London's Michelin Star restaurants, but not known where to start? Well, this list is for you. If you've been to one or two in your time, and you're looking to spread your culinary wings and take flight, this list is for you too. If you've ever felt that London's Michelin Star restaurants exist solely within the reach of the super rich, then this list is going to help you find your place in London's fine dining scene. We've taken all the London Michelin Star restaurants, divided them into ONE STAR, TWO STAR and THREE STAR groups, and split those groups up according to the average price of a main dish. We've then put in a handy, helpful soundbite to let you know what the restaurant's all about. Links and addresses are included too. The price point separation is of course imperfect. Some places have a great variety in the dishes they serve and the prices they go for. Others just do a tasting menu. But it gives you a good idea of which London Michelin Star restaurants are a big treat and which ones are a super, duper, super, duper, super big treat with bells on.
