The Delaunay

In the heart of Covent Garden, The Delaunay channels the spirit of Europe’s grand cafés, taking its cues from Vienna, Budapest, and Paris. Elegant Art Deco interiors, polished yet personable service, and an effortless rhythm set the tone for lingering conversation and relaxed dining.

The menu leans into timeless European favourites without fuss or fanfare. You’ll find crisp tartes flambées alongside comforting schnitzels and sausages, with classics like the Holstein schnitzel nodding to Continental tradition with poise rather than pastiche.

It’s a London institution for business lunches, pre-theatre dining, and special occasions, balancing sophisticated style with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Steps from the West End, it draws theatre-goers and casual visitors alike, offering attentive hospitality that feels reassuringly familiar.

Slip in before a show or settle in for an unhurried lunch, bask in the warm glow of the room, and let time slow to a civilised pace. Take your seat, savour the moment, and enjoy café society the London way.
