Pied a Terre

Pied à Terre, a cornerstone of Fitzrovia’s dining scene since 1991, is London’s longest-standing independent Michelin-starred restaurant. Founded by David Moore, whose culinary pedigree includes time at Le Manoir aux Quat’ Saisons, the restaurant has consistently delivered refined French cuisine with a contemporary twist. Under the guidance of Head Chef Alberto Cavaliere, the kitchen marries classical French techniques with delicate Asian influences, offering both omnivore and plant-based tasting menus that highlight seasonal British ingredients. The intimate townhouse setting features elegantly appointed dining rooms and private spaces, creating a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere ideal for special occasions or relaxed fine dining. Critics have lauded Pied à Terre for its impeccable service and innovative menus. The Michelin Guide notes the restaurant's commitment to plant-based offerings, stating that "dishes are based on classical French techniques yet are as satisfying today as they've ever been." SquareMeal highlights the venue's extensive wine list and the upstairs bar's appeal for cocktails. London Unattached praises the attentive yet unobtrusive service, describing it as making diners feel like "the only diner in the room." Open for lunch Thursday to Saturday and dinner Tuesday to Saturday, Pied à Terre offers a range of tasting menus, including a luxurious 10-course vegan option, accompanied by curated wine, cocktail, or alcohol-free pairings.
