45 Jermyn St. in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Had lunch here on three occasions and have to say what a pleasant surprise! The welcome from the hostess was warm and friendly - I took tables outside so I could enjoy a nice Havana Cigar post meal. The food was great on all occasions the Taco and Risotto perfectly cooked. The staff are all lovely but I have to say Joanna was amazing taking time to explain the menu and provided a sense of fun whilst retaining that air of professionalism throughout - well done and I will definitely be back!

We came here for our anniversary. We had the fish taco and rarebit as starters, both delicious. We had the beef wellington to share for main, it really was incredible. Was a bigger portion than I was expecting. The gratin potatoes were divine. The service & recommendations we received from Kieren our waiter was second to none. It felt like very genuine recommendations, and he was very knowledgeable about the menu. A very likeable guy, who was professional and hard working. Made our evening very relaxed and enjoyable. We would love Kieren to be recognised for his hard work and delightful nature!

Had breakfast here. Good size portions and excellent service

Looking for Wellington. Found it here. Not overly pretentious. It was Devine. Come and get it

I very much enjoyed my experience at 45 Jermyn St. Located right down the street from my hotel and theaters, you enter into a very elegant setting with super-attentive staff. I was quickly seated at a nice 2-top (I was alone) in a row of bench seating. Since nobody was ever seated near me during my stay, I had this area of the restaurant to myself -- which was fine. I went with the pre-theatre menu, since I was attending a show later. I started with the smoked salmon, then had the seabass for my main, and the eton mess coupe for dessert. The smoked salmon was delicious and served with soda bread and three accompaniments (eg., capers etc). Yummy. The seabass was one portion size, and was more than enough for my appetite (I've been to restaurants where they serve two and that's just too much for me). It was perfectly cooked, but I wished it came with a nice white wine reduction or something similar as it had no sauce. (The menu says it comes with sauce vierge, but if mine had that, I totally missed enjoying any.) I should've asked about it at the time, but didn't realize it was missing something until about halfway through. It had the other elements of "sauce vierge," so maybe it was just reduced down too much and lacked any of the actual sauce. This was the one off note to an otherwise enjoyable meal. Service was impeccable, always attentive without being intrusive. The dessert was delicious too! Highly recommended. The dinner was served in a timely manner, giving me plenty of time to make my show. (I made 5:30 reservations for a 7:30 showtime.)

Food is amazing, beef is so tender!

What a disappointment. The hype leading up to my booking was something - I booked well in advance for the famous 45 Jermyn St breakfast and purposefully left the airport amidst a really complicated transit to experience the eggs royale. Well, please do yourself a favor and, unless you happen to be walking past, don’t go out of your way. I was dining as a single diner (with hand luggage and airplane hair) and it was the generic experience that is spoken of - hide her and get her out. The website describes long, leisurely brunches alone or with friends. Wrong. I ordered the highly anticipated Eggs Royal (I was STARVING and lo and behold, I thought they were kidding when my bennie was dropped off. One tiny egg on a tiny English muffin with a blob of hollandaise. Thankfully it looked a little more delightful with a bit of cracked black pepper on it! I needed somewhere to stay for the hour so ordered another beverage and although the restaurant was at around - maybe a 10 percent capacity? It wasn’t the most welcoming. Pity.

I absolutely loved eating at this restaurant all of the flavors were so rich and exotic that my mouth was overwhelmed. Plus that beef Wellington was probably the best I ever had

We booked this restaurant for Sunday morning breakfast. It looks fabulous and we were excited to try it out. The welcome was very warm and efficient, we were quickly shown to our table. Our server arrived promptly and our order taken. My partner ordered pancakes, these were disappointingly thick & dense. I ordered the full English,. Both dishes arrived in good time and both as hot as expected. Unfortunately, the quality of the food wasn’t as high as I’d expected from such an high end restaurant. I’ve had better tasting & quality of sausage in a countryside B&B. It felt like it was all a bit style over substance! It’s not cheap, but I wasn’t expecting it to be but I was expecting the food quality to be commensurate with the price, sadly it wasn’t. Not terrible but certainly not as good as I’d hoped.

I went to this restaurant a long time ago and I will never go back. I ordered risotto with asparagus and morels. As soon as I finished the dish I started to feel strange and had to go home cancelling my plans for the rest of the evening. I was vomiting all night and had to call the doctor. The doctor asked me what food I had eaten. The doctor was sure that the reason for my illness was morel poisoning as they are very toxic and that I would be taken to the hospital if the symptoms got worse. I did not know that morels were toxic when I ordered the dish especially if they are not cooked properly. The doctor advised me to call the restaurant and report it. I informed the restaurant and they said they would investigate but they did not and they ignored me for weeks without answering my calls or emails.

Great breakfast and excellent service

I had a really bad welcome from a tall blond girl. I felt discriminated by the way she spoke to my friends and I, as we just wanted to have a drink. I used to come to this place often, but now that she works here, I am not experience it again.

A superb upscale restaurant in St James. Food is superb, the wine list excellent and the service is great. Smart casual dress, we had a wonderful dinner.

The food and drink we had at 45 Jermyn was some of the best we had in London. Not only was the beef Wellington cooked perfectly, but the table side show made it all the better. The cocktails made by the bartenders were equally amazing! Worth every penny we spent! The wait staff was incredible as well!

We had a great lunch, great asparagus soup, and a great tofu main course.

Lemon dessert was the best thing I’ve eaten all year!!

Decor is lovely and spacious. I went for breakfast - recommend if you're looking for a place for an informal morning meeting. The breakfast menu is not as generous as the dinner menu. Buckwheat pancakes and rarebit are worth a try. Not many vegetarian options for breakfast

The wait staff was outstanding, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was very pleasant!

Great experience, the wellington is some of the best meat I’ve eaten, presented with some great pazazz with the table side sauce flambé. Expensive but good value. Recommended.

This place is absolutely beautiful inside, but don’t be lured into a false sense of security. Multiple members of staff, hostess and a bartender are so rude. Giving you dirty looks and attitude if you ask them a question. We ordered breakfast, and crumpets were burnt and dry, could barely cut them with our knives, and the eggs were only lukewarm, you’ll get your nice instagram pic in here for sure but you’ll be ripped off and be glad to leave ASAP, I definitely was!

Returned for a second visit (for breakfast)some months later whilst in London to be greeted by such a warm and charming welcome by Tahirah who had served us on our first visit and actually remembered us personally which is quite incredible. This level of service is tremendous and that alone would encourage us to return again. Food is absolutely outstanding and look forward to our next visit. Thank you Tahirah!

Convenient location and a great place to relax and enjoy nice food . We loved our starters ( “Elegant rarebit), our mains ( Calves liver and Pork ragout) and dessert we shared - Lemon Meringue. Our wine was very interesting Riesling from Luxembourg ! From start to beginning we really enjoyed ! We will be definitely coming back to try Beef Wellington !

Everything was delicious, the beef Wellington was incredible and Vanessa our waitress was the best! Thank you for the great experience!

Super nice place, beautiful art deco design

In between a 3/4 star, slightly above average food for lunch

Exceptional spot to meet and dine. Lovely space and excellent food. So many things to recommend. Rarebit , risotto, Knickerbocker glory...all the drinks. Today, June 2024, I had lunch with a friend of mine, who had her 2.5 year old baby and stroller. The courtesy and helpfulness, and attentiveness of the entire team towards all of us, especially the kid, put us at ease, and was very very appreciated. The food as always was delicious and we were never rushed. We were looked after so well, it really made all the difference and made this wonderful day even more perfect.

My wife and I booked this while on our honeymoon trip to try a beef wellington for the first time and have some caviar. I saw online that the restaurant did table side service for both, so we booked it the day of our reservation. I was concerned a little about how we'd be received, since we were Americans visiting without having super dressy clothes since it sounded fancy. Ultimately there was no dress code and we were treated extremely well by all of the staff. Our waiter was great and super friendly throughout dinner. We ordered the caviar for table side service which exceeded expectations, as the scrambled eggs were made in front of us, which were probably the best scrambled eggs we've ever had, along with the other great accompaniments that came with the caviar for us to enjoy. We both got cocktails throughout dinner, which were also great. We got the beef wellington for two, with the sauce being flambéed tableside and the server cutting the beef wellington for us. The presentation was great and the food was even better. The beef wellington for two was arguably too much food for us on its own with the green beans and au gratin coming as sides, but all were delicious. It was everything we'd hoped it would be, and the staff was amazing to us. We'd definitely come back again in the future to try their other dishes after having tried the main event. It was certainly an experience and meal fit for a special honeymoon moment in London.

Absolutely fantastic. We shared the lobster spaghetti and beef Wellington, both incredible and lovely presentation. Drinks are also delicious. Would highly recommend!

My friend and I ate here for the first time today, and it was a fabulous experience from the moment we arrived for lunch. All the food was delicious, and Sophie the manager took the best care of us. Plus, it’s super stylish inside. Highly recommend!

Even with a hefty price tag, it's a memorable experience with great food. The service is very friendly as well. We had asparagus soup which was incredibly tasty. For mains, it was our first time trying beef wellington, so I cannot compare with others, but it seemed to have been prepared correctly and the flambéed sauce and sides were a great plus. For dessert, the raspberry soufflé was mind-blowing, I definitely recommend it.

Great place, great location, great service - love visiting in the asparagus season 👏🏻😋

Zeer lekker gegeten, perfecte plek voor lunch tijdens/na het shoppen. Goede kaart, uitstekende gerechten. Lang geleden dat ik nog eens zo een lekkere lever gegeten had! Het interieur deed ons denken aan een schilderij van Hopper. Leuke kelner! Aanrader!

We eat here 2 or 3 times each year and it never fails to impress. The menu is pleasingly small containing some classics such as lobster linguine (theatrically finished with some pyrotechnics at the table!), beef wellington and several excellent fish dishes some of which are novel and very successful such as the mackerel tacos, with some seasonal variations (a range of 5 or 6 asparagus dishes at this time of the year). Each dish is perfectly executed. Wines are of excellent quality (including by the glass). Service is attentive but not intrusive. The atmosphere and interior design of the restaurant is smart, a bit glamorous but also informal and fun. On our last visit we had the privilege of being served by Dali who made us feel very welcome and also shared a little of his sense of humour with us, making the evening a thoroughly delightful experience.

Dropped in for Breakfast, always a reliable place to go. Sat outside in the sun and had Mushroom and Gruyère omelette , I have had better but it was still OK. The ‘Blonde’ had tomatoes on toast with a side of Smoked Salmon which she has every time we visit , perfect as always. She had a Dirty Mary and I had a Bloody Marry which were a great pick me up… Not a bad cup of coffee either..

We arrived do a pre theatre dinner at 5.59pm and were told it finished at 6pm and were too late to order. Too late at 6pm!!?????? That is absurd and the only place in London that I have been to which stops serving so early!!! Despite being soo disappointed the food was good, service efficient but it’s expensive (what do you expect I guess) and a good atmosphere, but I certainly won’t be going pre theatre again!

Enjoyed this for breakfast and will definitely be returning. Price was reasonable, atmosphere was good and food was tasty. Convenient location and the service was decent, we weren't rushed (but it was a bit difficult to get hold of someone for the bill etc.) Slightly weirdly when I asked for mushrooms in my bacon sandwich I was told they could only be on the side and it wouldn't be possible to put them in... Amazingly I managed to get the mushrooms inside! Bit of an odd hill to die on from the waiter but there we go 🤷🏻‍♂️

Visited for the first time last Saturday for lunch. The liver and bacon was really excellent. My partner had scrambled eggs with caviar. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the environment was really nice. Also, they have mainly booths which I find very comfortable. We had a corner booth which is great as I can't move my neck much and it allowed me to speak to both of my guests without turning my head. I will definitely be back. It's owned by Fortnum and Mason by the way.

A great place for weekends. Very good service and very high quality of food! The wine on the menu was excellent and reasonably priced. The waitress Tahirah is really friendly!! She really took good care of us and our interests. Top top!

I visited for the first time on an early Friday evening having booked for two. We were a bit early so ordered drinks at the bar. I wasn’t impressed tbh, took three of them to understand the concept of a whiskey and lemonade. Then they served it with that cloudy lemonade. Dinner was amazing though, we had the beef wellington which is carved at the table, and they flambé the peppercorn sauce as well. The started were nice, although I had smoked salmon and it was pretty basic for £20. Nothing special at all. Service was very good, staff were very attentive and the atmosphere was great

Buzzy restaurant with a full and varied menu. Generally busy for breakfast. Stellar scrambled eggs, berries and porridge plus, my current favourite, heritage tomatoes in balsamic, on sourdough.

Wonderful finance breakfast as usual.

Reliable location for high quality food and efficient service in buzzy atmosphere. Not cheap but a perfect spot for breakfast meeting in this area.

We were shown to our table and sat down by a manager. A lovely man named Dali (I believe) then cared for us for the rest of the meal. He really did make it the meal outstanding; from his customer service to the recommendation of the absolutely delightful Beef Wellington. I would come again purely for his service, really well done! The food was absolutely divine and the atmosphere was amazing! I would highly recommend it to anyone and I'm very excited to come back again!

Wonderful service, excellent food, great atmosphere. Decor is slightly underwhelming but the dishes more than make up for it. Drinks are good, too! Try the wellington. Asparagus risotto also very nice, and the sides (scallop potato and green beans). Would definitely come back.

The Beef Wellington is excellent and so is the service!

First time here visiting from Canada. Restaurant was cozy, service staff very attentive. We were here for their beef wellington and it didnt disappoint!

Amazing breakfast. Exquisite Bloody Mary. Nice and helpful staff. Great atmosphere. Sealed the deal in London completely.

Early dinner for 7 after a show. Fantastic food, great service and will be back. Cool setting to - nice restaurant layout / seating.

We had a lovely meal. It was expensive but delicious. We arrived much earlier than we anticipated and the staff were good enough to prepare a table and seat us. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The service was great, staff were friendly and approachable. The outing was a treat and it really was a memorable experience. Thank you. Our entire party have pretty hearty appetites so it was clean plates and full tummies all round. We will definitely come again.

This was a very nice breakfast experience. Great service and atmosphere. The area is stylish and calm and so is the restaurant. The service was great. I highly recommend this place for a fancy breakfast if you like it soft and fancy.

Extremely disappointed by the kegeree served here. It was dry and quite tasteless, definitely not worth the price. The decor itself was splendid, but not enough to make up for the food.

Don’t be stupid! How do I avoid being stupid? You ask. Here’s how: Don’t even THINK of dining here and NOT ordering the Beef Wellington. Period. It’s for two people and you should order it even if you’re dining alone! It’s simply perfect (well ours was!) and worth every minute of the 45 spent preparing it. Everything else here was delicious and sophisticated as well, including an amazing knikerbocker glory dessert. But the Wellington was amazing, with the perfectly-made pastry topped with gravy made right at the table. Go there. Eat that. Cheers

I need to understand that London is expensive and we went looking for the beef Wellington experience: it was really good including the service. It is recommended.

Went for breakfast as a family of four. Hadn’t been in a few years but always enjoyed it in the past. Sadly the place has become a completely mediocre tourist trap. Home are the white table cloths, gone are the silver decanters, gone is the exquisite and knowledgeable service. The food was incredibly poor quality. I could taste the vinegar on the eggs benedict. The toast was random sliced. If I’d paid £5 for each of the dishes ima local greasy spoon, I would have been annoyed but at £20+ per dish - this was a sad joke. They also add an *optional* 12% service charge without mentioning or asking. Sad to say this was a terrible experience and another great London establishment down the drain…

Attentive, friendly staff with a relaxed informal dining experience. The raw Cornish mackerel tacos were fantastic. I was hoping for more from the lobster linguine although it comes with quite a show being prepared and flambéed at the table was not as tasty as it could have been.

It was my birthday, and I wanted to taste beef wellington for the first time in my life, but this restaurant made the day wonderful! The food was fantastic, and the staff were very professional and friendly.

This is a great spot for breakfast. The scrambled eggs were one of the best I’ve ever had. The seating is comfortable and the staff are friendly. Nice fresh juices, although the serving of them could be improved (too small).

Great meal and service enjoyed the caviar experience

Prime location, excellent food and service

Food was amazing, the service was really nice and inviting, will definitely come again

The best Pizzas around.,,, great job guys

I was in Jermyn Street buying some new shirts and I thought I would have some lunch. I called in at '45'. I would say the experience was 'okay'. The starter, Oxtail soup, was a little bland, the main course, which was liver and bacon was very good. I messed up and ordered lettuce instead of cabbage, as a side, but the waiter was polite and didn't laugh. The main issue was the 45 minute wait between courses. I know the restaurant is called 45 , but I didn't think that also equated to the waiting time between courses. There were certainly plenty of staff on duty, but the two I spoke to were unable to explain the reason for the delay. I guess that will have to remain one of lives great mysteries, as the restraint wasn't busy. It did give me time to watch the Gueridon waiter cook on a nearby table, which I enjoyed.

Food 4/5 Good oysters Drink 4/5 Good wine selection (a bit pricey) Service 3,5/5 Fast and attentive (not amazing) Ambience 3,5/5 The logical target feels classy Price 3/5 60pp is a bit expensive because of the complexity Total 18/25 (72%)

Wow ! 45 Jermyn street has had a shake up and they are back on point , had a bad experience a year ago and decided to find new places . Yesterday we popped in for lunch and wow 100 % amazing service , stylish and everything was on point .. absolutely faultless Oh yes they are back and a place to go again .

Horrible service, rude host. Made you not welcome.

I can only recommend the bone marrow

Quality ! tandoori chicken salad was the best

Very poor inattentive service; waited ages to be served the one modest course; over priced; very noisy; grit in lettuce; 20% service charge - declined. Go again - no! Recent refurbishment seems to mean Dover Sole @ £62.50; Pinot £15 for a small glass.

Recommended staff and place. Excellent liver and fillet

Lovely buzzing atmosphere. Delicious steak and chips. Saint Joseph red wine paired well.

Lovely setting in a convenient location. Fantastic wine list, and incredible food! Beetroot burrata and Dover sole were two highlights!

I got the raw cornish mackerel & caviar tacos along with the roasted bone marrow. Both delicious and easy on the eye. Dali made everything easier and was very kind for the whole early dinner of mine. Fortnum & Mason never disappoints. Thanks!

This place no longer looks like a Fortnum's restaurant they have ruined the ambience, it looks more like an 80's Wimpey or an American diner, all red plastic/faux leather and so much noise. The waitress didn't care, the barman looked like he has just got out of bed and not washed. The gents toilets where awful, broken tiles, broken taps, mould, the ladies not much better. As for the food, many complaints today, meals returned, as inedible champagne /wine given for free to placate complainers , people leaving . I felt for the manager, but this is supposed to be Fortnum's restaurant not some café bar for goodness sake appalling!!!

Truly an awful experience. I’ve never felt so uncomfortable in a restaurant. The maitre d’ was rude as we entered and were it for the fact we had pre booked this particularly restaurant we would have left at that point. The service was curt and abrupt to the point of rudeness. Basically made to feel inferior if you aren’t spending big bucks. I guess our mistake was asking for the ‘Pre Theatre Menu’ which they eventually admitted they had and reluctantly gave us. Why offer a set menu if you are going to have a huff if people try to order from it? We felt it was really underhand and they effectively wanted us to pay more on the standard menu for exactly the same food. The service staff were cold and uninterested and had the audacity to add a hefty service charge. The food was ok but not exactly ‘wow.’ Totally ruined our 5th wedding anniversary meal. Would never even consider booking here again. We both left kind of sad as if we had wasted a special occasion at this horrible restaurant.

This a great restaurant serving up quality food just behind its parent Fortnum and Mason shop. We have been here both for dinner and brunch and enjoyed it on both occasions. Worth a stop if in the area!

Get the Elegant(with bacon) Welsh Rarebit with worcestershire sauce or the Benedict you won't be disappointed.

It’s that conglomeration of garlic and parsley, red pepper flakes, oil and vinegar that, married with charred and tender lamb, makes me almost emotional at the wonder of taste buds. There’s excitement and risk too: will this version be better than the last?

Always a pleasure. Great food, served with ease & panache,

Used to go there when it was Fortnum and Mason. Has lost the atmodphere and the food was poor. Will not be going back.

We decided to visit this restaurant with our two friends as we hoped that it would be quiet and easy to hear what we were saying. We were tucked in to a corner and this worked well. We ordered a simple meal with glasses of wine rather than expensive bottles. Our friends even shared their main course. The service was excellent and our food was fine and simple. Each of us only had two courses. I was horrified to see that the meal had cost us just over £410 that included a service charge of over £40. This is madness and simply not worth the money. To have paid more than £100 each for such a modest meal makes no sense and must damage the restaurant's chance of entertaining the average Londoner.

Sadly disappointing breakfast, having ordered full english with fried eggs it arrived with poached, sausages not very good and bacon seemed to have been reheated , wife's kedgeree was average with very little smoked haddock.....most disappointing was service ....it ranged from very good to very poor, our waitress who brought our breakfast was very miserable , request for brown sauce was unsuccessful and having ordered tea for two took fifteen minutes to come and then it was for one , shame

I had one of the best meals in a restaurant I’ve had for ages. The food was of the high standard expected for the price and it was served hot. It is very very expensive (so much so that I was worried the food wouldn’t be worth the price when I went for an expensive option on this occasion), however, the dishes were all tasty and properly cooked. We eat here quite often and the food is usually fairly good to very good but the truffle menu was really fantastic. I loved the champagne risotto and wish that there was always a vegetarian option like this available (it would be best if the truffle was optional in my opinion). The restaurant does seem to often offer all or mostly vegan options and little to no vegetarian dishes with eggs, cheese and butter but more recently there seems to be more of a good balance. This is good for me as I think these things tend to make tastier food that feels more of a treat/leaves you full when eating out. I do like the carrot salad from the vegan options. I hope the truffle menu sticks around a little longer (I generally like the little specials options on the top left of the menu). Drinks very good too! I do miss the lime rickey ice cream on the dessert menu though! Service was good.

Nice restaurant and wonderful food. Beef Wellington is the main dish and an incredible experience!

Lovely place to eat after shopping

One of the loveliest places I've been too. Good service, delicious food and beautiful surroundings.

Some restaurants get it just right and this is one of them. We’ve been coming here for years, the beef Wellington is one by which all others are judged. Excellent service, we even returned for breakfast this trip and usual great food and service.

À Little bit Noisy and expansive

This is a great place. But they did make a big mistake saying there was no sesame in a dish when there was and our guest had an allergic reaction and had to leave early with her partner. Not good for an otherwise amazing place.

We came here on New Years Day for dinner and it was amazing. We had several starters followed by the Beef Wellington (highly recommend). Special shout out to David, who served us all evening and made the experience even more enjoyable. Will be going again soon!

Lovely, as it always is! Excellent food and service.

Simply delicious with perfect service

Went by chance as waiting for Fortnum to open and loved it. Breakfast was reasonably priced for quality products and service exceptional, everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience and look forward to returning. Really recommend a visit

Decent food, the service was unbelievably rushed. They were asking us if we wanted pudding when they served our main course and the bill when we ordered dessert. A bit weird.

Just beautiful. Perfect breakfast.

Absolutely loved this place. Went twice in one weekend. Darren on the door was lovely. Adriana and all the serving staff were lovely. One of the best steaks I have ever had xxxx

I went here with a group of friends for dinner. Everything was fantastic, the food, wine, and staff! Its expensive but a lovely treat

Excellent restaurant with great menu and wine list. Flambé dishes prepared at your table. Very popular so booking in advance is a must.

Back again at 45 Jeremyn St. to have the amazing beef wellington which never stops to amaze us. Service is kind and impeccable (special thanks to the Maître for the attention given). Food is delicious and tasty. We will definitely be back!

Came here for breakfast before having a look at the Christmas display in Fortnums and elsewhere. Smoked Salmon and scrambled eggs were excellent, a good portion size which can be lacking in good restaurants. Would recommend for a sophisticated breakfast to start your day right
