Chiltern Firehouse London

Chiltern Firehouse sits at 1 Chiltern Street. It is a fifteen-minute walk from the Wallace Collection, Bond Street, and Selfridges. The menu offers South American and contemporary seafood, and the room runs smart and elegant.

Most venues in this part of town rely on the polish of nearby department stores to drive their traffic, but this restaurant succeeds by treating its history as part of the service. While its peers often feel like extensions of the surrounding shopping streets, the converted station layout creates a sequestered setting. Visit for the way the room manages to feel private despite the constant churn of the neighbourhood outside. It is dressier than its neighbours, yet it avoids the stiffness typically found in surrounding fine dining rooms.
