Kick off summer and the warmer weather with the opening of the famous Ritz Restaurant terrace.

A London landmark, the Ritz offers a slice of British heritage where diners can enjoy the luxuries of London whilst in the glamorous Ritz Hotel, whilst overlooking the leafy views of Green Park.

Located in the heart of London, in the hustle and bustle of London’s Piccadilly, the Ritz is prime location for London’s theatre district and is a stone’s throw from the infamous shopping street of London, Bond Street.

Head Chef John Williams has created a luxurious classic menu featuring French dishes using the finest British seasonal ingredients. Diners can indulge in dressed crab rolls with avocado and Charentais melon or tender Var salmon with zesty lemon verbena and broad beans. For dessert, seasonal sweets such as white chocolate mousse, fresh raspberries and fragrant basil sorbet with rich yoghurt sauce.

One of the most elegant restaurants in the word, the Ritz Restaurant boasts floor to ceiling windows and opulent chandeliers. Traditional and glorious in its décor, the Ritz Restaurant, not only makes for a charming setting to dine in but the impeccable service adds to the fairytale experience. Signature tailcoats and choreographed settings, the friendly and unimposing service highlights the occasion.

Ideal for special occasions or simply a luxurious way to make the most out of the summer sun, the Ritz Restaurant terrace makes for the perfect setting for luxurious dining whilst gazing over the royal parks of Green Park. With white linen table cloths and sparkling silverware, the stylish Ritz Restaurant terrace is one of London’s hidden gems.
