The story
The Garden at Corinthia London, on Whitehall Place in London, is a seasonal Italian and Mediterranean courtyard restaurant that The Good Food Guide rated Good for 2026. It sits inside the hotel and serves all day, from lunch into the evening.
The courtyard is sheltered, shaded and planted, which makes it a pleasant place to sit in summer. In colder months, sofas with blankets, two fireplaces and plenty of heaters keep the space comfortable.
White asparagus arrives with a morel and artichoke casserole, wild garlic and fresh Parmesan. Baked sea bass comes with fennel, capers and lemon, and a pizzette topped with Ortiz tuna, tomato, black olive and pea shoots shows the Italian side of the kitchen. Wine Spectator gave the wine list its Best of Award of Excellence in 2025, and cigars are offered after 9.30pm.

History
There are plenty of reasons to linger in this cosy all-year courtyard garden right at the heart of the Corinthia London hotel. Beautifully sheltered, shaded and planted, it cuts a real dash in summer but come winter a mix of sofas with blankets, two fireplaces and plenty of heaters make this a comfortable and elegant destination whatever the weather. Among the all-day food and drinks offering, expect Mediterranean airs in show-stopping main courses such as white asparagus served with a morel and artichoke casserole, wild garlic and fresh Parmesan, or a beautifully rendered, baked sea bass fillet with fennel, capers and lemon. Eggs Mimosa or beef carpaccio start things off with plenty of oomph, otherwise plump for just one dish – say a satisfying salade niçoise or a pizzette topped with Ortiz tuna, tomato, black olive and pea shoots. It’s all about good food, good wine – and cigars after 9.30pm – at prices that match the surroundings.
