Le Petit Citron

In the heart of Brook Green, Hammersmith, Le Petit Citron offers a soulful expression of Provençal cuisine in a setting rich with both charm and history. This romantic French bistro is family-run and inspired by long summers spent in the South of France, where meals are generous, rustic, and rooted in tradition. With red and white checked tablecloths, warm lemon-hued walls, and nostalgic greens throughout, the space pays loving tribute to the region’s vibrant culture. The restaurant occupies a former David Greig grocery from the 19th century, still showcasing original black and white floor tiles, Scottish thistle cornicing, and the iconic D&G monogram beneath its front windows — a nod to its architectural heritage. Le Petit Citron is a beloved neighbourhood favourite that brings the elegance of French cuisine to West London with a cosy, down-to-earth touch. Diners are warmly welcomed into a space frequently used for TV and photo shoots, thanks to its pretty interiors and cinematic atmosphere. Known for soul-warming dishes inspired by classic French recipes, the menu celebrates seasonal produce and offers comforting flavours across both lunch and dinner service, Monday to Saturday, with relaxed Sunday lunches also available. A romantic ambiance, family-led service, and Provençal cooking make this an ideal choice for intimate evenings or leisurely meals in West London.
