The Wolseley City

In the heart of the City, The Wolseley City brings the poise of grand European café culture to a contemporary London address. Open from breakfast through to dinner, it delivers the brand’s trademark polish with attentive service, a well-heeled crowd, and an easy elegance that suits business breakfasts, client lunches, after-work drinks and special occasions alike.

The kitchen leans into timeless European cooking with British accents, from fresh seafood and premium steaks to seasonal plates with quiet flair. Jersey Rocks oysters and Prunier Classique Oscietra Caviar set a lavish tone, while yellowfin tuna tartare and gin and juniper cured salmon speak to a lighter touch. Comfort has its moment too: the ‘Monument’ fish pie, a classic Wiener schnitzel, a grilled Barnsley chop, and Sunday roasts such as roast sirloin of Herefordshire beef. To finish, think Black Forest Gâteau or a silken classic crème brûlée, with an extensive wine list and expertly mixed cocktails to match.

An opulent setting elevates it all: Egyptian motifs, a monochromatic palette and impeccable symmetry play against the grandeur of a historic 1920s building, once a bank and a department store. The effect is luxurious yet inviting, a stage set for convivial dining and deal-making alike.

Plan a morning, a lunch or a lingering supper — then settle in and let the City’s newest grand café make your day, course by course.
