The Terrace at The Theatre Royal Drury Lane (Covent Garden)

25th August 2024 by Richard Bagnold Leave a Comment

Outdoor balcony dining at The Theatre Royal, Drury Lane serving brasserie-style choices

This is a little gem I have come across.  You do not need to have a ticket for the theatre to seek a reservation for the theatre restaurant, which has a beautiful outdoor terrace for trying their limited, all day dining menu and brunch on weekends.  My visit was a spontaneous drop in for the latter and my brunch of poached eggs on avocado revealed some of the best bacon I have ever had with perfect texture and wonderful, smoked flavour.  The bacon was from Fenns of Piccadilly (actually based in Acton), the eggs done well and thankfully not freezing avocado which is sometimes the case, but it would have been good if the sourdough was toasted more and not bread-like as a personal preference.  On a bright and sunny, weekend morning, dining outside for a brunch on this terrace I would say is one of the most charming brunch spots in the whole of London.

About Me

meMy hobby-turned-passion began to evolve during my assignments to London where I was fortunate enough to be able to explore all the Michelin starred restaurants in my spare time and as a result, I gradually built up a catalogue of all these venues.
