Food and Drink in London's Covent Garden

Covent Garden Cafes

For morning coffee, lunch and afternoon tea, try one of the cafes in and around the piazza. If you simply can't stop shopping for 5 minutes, head to Muffinski's and grab a yummy organic muffin. Or try Cybercandy for sweet treats from all round the world.

Fine Dining in Covent Garden

At dinner time, you can pretty much pick what you want and there'll be a restaurant serving it. Fancy pizza or panaché of monkfish? Just follow your tastebuds.

As Covent Garden is in the heart of theatreland, it's popular with pre-show diners. The Amphitheatre Restaurant at the Royal Opera House offers an a la carte menu to ballet and opera ticket holders in the evening.

If you're looking to impress, try Clos Maggiore where you can show off your knowledge of vintage wines.

A table on the terrace at Chez Gerard is perfect for an extravagant treat. Watch the world go by as you tuck into delicious French cuisine.

Stylish drinking venues in Covent Garden

Dirty Martini is great for a party or an intimate dinner for 2. Hide in a dark corner of this popular bar and spot the beautiful people.

Maybe the designer of the Jewel Bar was inspired by all the glittery jewellery shops nearby. With an exotic mirrored interior, it's the perfect place for a glamorous drink.

For a drink with a difference, try The Upper Deck at the London Transport Museum. This daytime café transforms into a bar in the evenings, serving cocktails with a London transport theme.
