The Latest London Restaurants Added to The MICHELIN Guide

Explore the hottest restaurants in the capital right now, which have all thrilled the Michelin Inspectors

There are few cities in the world that can go toe-to-toe with London when it comes to restaurants. With dozens of international cuisines represented across a dining scene that also boasts 78 Michelin-Starred establishments, it is quite simply one of the best places to eat around the globe. With London’s culinary map constantly evolving, our Inspectors add new restaurants to The Guide every month, while the much-coveted Stars and other awards are announced once a year. Click here for the latest additions across the UK & Ireland.


As is befitting of a metropolis like London, this month’s fresh selection of Inspector-approved spots showcases a brilliant diversity of dining styles and cuisines. You have Lita’s bang on-trend wood-fired cooking, The Hero’s no-nonsense pub food and Cloth’s wine-led bistro dining. And that’s not to mention the Greek and Japanese cuisine available at AGORA and Kioku by Endo respectively. Whatever you’re into, London has it in abundance – as these restaurants prove.

AGORA, Borough Market

Greek

Greek food is having a moment in London, thanks to the upstairs-downstairs duo of AGORA and OMA. The former is the more casual of the two operations, with a menu focussed on flatbreads, spreads and skewers. It’s yet another fun, great value spot to add to the growing roster in this area.

Cloth, City of London

Traditional Cuisine

Fans of restaurants like Noble Rot and Peckham Cellars will be in their element at this earnest little bistro in The City. Owners Joe and Ben also run a wine business, so expect a great choice of bottles to accompany your food. The cooking itself is of the unfussy, produce-driven variety – with delicious results.

Kioku by Endo, Westminster

Japanese Contemporary, Mediterranean Cuisine

Another venture from renowned sushi supremo Endo Kazutoshi, this restaurant inside the Raffles hotel comes with the added bonus of breathtaking cityscape views. The menu is less strictly Japanese than Endo at The Rotunda, infusing a host of Mediterranean flavours; as is the Italian way, the à la carte is made up of four courses, not three.

Lita, Marylebone

Mediterranean Cuisine

Cooking over fire is London’s current culinary obsession – and now you can add Lita to the list of disciples. The chefs here understand their art form brilliantly, providing bucketloads of flavour across their Mediterranean-inflected sharing plates. Marylebone’s diners are already filling the place.

The Hero, Maida Vale

Traditional Cuisine

Anyone who’s been to, and understandably loved, The Pelican in Notting Hill will no doubt be equally enamoured with Maida Vale’s The Hero. The same team have brought their brand of full-flavoured pub cooking here with great success, especially with the recent opening of ‘The Grill’ upstairs.
