As would be expected from a hotel whose first chef was the legendary Auguste Escoffier, The Savoy’s selection of restaurants are legendary. The inspired cuisine of chef/patron Marcus Wareing can be enjoyed in the Michelin starred Savoy Grill and the more informal Banquette and the superb creative talents of The Savoy’s Maitre Chef Georg Fuchs can be sampled in the Thames Foyer and throughout the hotel.

The theaters, opera, ballet and shopping of Covent Garden are located nearby.
