Best Places for Sunday Lunch

Editor’s note: Possibly the best roast in Mayfair. Beef from the trolley, gravy in a jug, no shortcuts.

Richard Corrigan's Mayfair flagship is a love letter to the British larder. Game, seafood and seasonal produce handled with skill and generosity in a warm, club-like room.

Editor’s note: A Wolseley Sunday is a London institution. Book early, eat late.

The Wolseley has become one of London's great civic restaurants since opening in 2003. The former car showroom on Piccadilly channels the grandeur of a Viennese cafe, and the all-day menu is reliably excellent.

Editor’s note: Bruton Place stalwart, fire-grilled chops, properly old-school.

A Mayfair institution tucked into the mews behind Berkeley Square, The Guinea combines a proper London pub with one of the finest grills in the area. The steak and kidney pie is legendary.

Editor’s note: Just outside the gates at the Corinthia, but worth the cab - Tom Kerridge does the trolley Sunday.

Tom Kerridge brings his Michelin-starred sensibility to a grand hotel setting. Expect bold British flavours, exceptional produce and the kind of cooking that makes you feel properly looked after.

Editor’s note: Argentinian grill, big roast, very civilised.

A classic Mayfair grill occupying a grand Grosvenor Square townhouse. The wood-fired grill produces exceptional steaks and seafood, while the room has the comfortable confidence of a club.
