Claridge’s to fully reopen art deco restaurant in September

Claridge’s Restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner with the menu overseen by Irish-born Finn who has previously worked at Inverlochy Castle, Davies and Brook and Sketch.
Classically inspired dishes, enhanced with modern twists, showcase the finest locally sourced ingredients. Served from the kitchen’s striking, marble-framed doors, starters include Buckwheat Crumpets, laden with soubise cream, truffle puree and slices of truffle and Dorset Snails with parsley and parmesan croute.
For mains, dishes span from whole wild Turbot grenobloise to share, Artichoke Agnolotti, to Grilled Native Lobster with crushed Jersey royals and sauce Américaine
The restaurant has been designed by Bryan O’Sullivan Studio, with particular homage to the hotel’s art deco design heritage. A contemporary colour palette is complemented with Calacatta Viola marble and antique brass. Mosaic flooring, central leather banquettes and dramatic pendant lamps, in the style of art deco architect Joseph Hoffman, add a sense of true glamour to the space.
The restaurant’s distinctive art deco starburst skylights were designed by Guy Oliver and artwork has been chosen from Claridge’s extensive private collection, with pieces from Sean Scully, Guggi, Richard Gorman and two new bespoke commissions by Brian Clarke.
