Bleeding Heart, Clerkenwell, EC1

With a rustic look to match its location and history, the Bleeding Heart offers traditional French fare in a welcoming and intimate setting, which is great for couples, and has an award-winning wine list to match.

Clos Maggiore, Covent Garden, WC2

Often described as an oasis in the heart of Covent Garden and revered for its acclaimed wine list, Clos Maggiore, with its muted lighting and open log fire, epitomises the ethos of a romantic restaurant for some.

Club Gascon, Clerkenwell, EC1

Club Gascon is the Michelin starred jewel in Pascal Aussignac’s mini Empire including Le Cercle and a few other Gascon incarnations. Situated near Smithfield Market, Club Gascon highlights the cuisine of south west France, with a large focus on foie gras, and is great for grown-up romance.

Lamberts, Balham, SW12

Lamberts is an intimate local restaurant in Balham, offering unassuming and traditional cuisine, with a great focus on traceable and sustainable produce, in a contemporary setting.

Marcus Wareing at the Berkeley, Knightsbridge, SW1

Since striking out alone from Gordon Ramsay Holdings, Marcus Wareing’s cooking has flourished even further and his eponymous restaurant presents haute cuisine at its finest. The décor is dark and seductive and the service and food are impeccable.

Odette’s, Primrose Hill, NW1

Odette’s has been a Primrose Hill institution for decades, but is now under the reign of Bryn Williams, winner of the Great British Menu television series. The mood is dark and seductive in the downstairs restaurant and the tables that open out on to the streets of Primrose Hill are ideal for an alfresco lunch.

Rhodes 24, The City, EC2

Located on the 24^th floor of Tower 42, Rhodes 24 showcases Gary Rhodes’s traditional British cuisine, which received a Michelin Star in 2005. Located in the heart of the City, Rhodes 24 has sublime views of London, and it’s worth having a drink at Vertigo 42’s champagne bar on the 42^nd floor of the building before dinner.

Roussillon, Pimlico, SW1

Roussillon is well-known for its accomplished classic French cuisine using the finest British produce, which thoroughly deserves its Michelin star. The atmosphere is intimate and understated, and the lighting adds to the romance.

Scott’s, Mayfair, W1

From the moment the doorman wearing a bowler hat greets and escorts you into the dining room and you see the fabulously ornate oyster bar, you know you’re in for a treat, and the food, service and ambience deliver just that. Scott’s is glamorous, exciting and romantic with the right person.

Galvin at Windows, Mayfair

Situated on the 28th floor of the London Hilton on Park Lane, Galvin at Windows has wonderful views of London, and with its Michelin star is one of London's leading destination restaurants. The combination of great views and food make for a thoroughly romantic evening.
