Mayfair
Our guides covering Mayfair, London.
Mayfair is where London keeps its old money and its best behaviour: a quarter of Georgian squares, hushed members' clubs and the kind of restaurants you book for the occasion rather than the evening. Between Berkeley Square and Park Lane sit some of the finest dining rooms in the country, the grandest hotels and a clutch of cocktail bars that have quietly defined how the city drinks.
These are our considered guides to Mayfair, from the restaurants worth the white tablecloth to the hotel bars, the romantic tables and the places to stay when only the grandest will do. Every recommendation is made on merit, chosen for the room, the service and the sense of occasion.
