Food & Beverages

Prior to the opening of The Savoy in 1889, its owners wanted to create something very special. The Savoy was to be a destination hotel that was truly unique where impeccable service was of paramount importance. The great Cesar Ritz was commissioned to manage the hotel and the renowned Georges-Auguste Esscoffier was secured as Head of Restaurant Services. The hotel thrived under their direction and the stage was set for a tradition that continues to this day. In the Michelin starred Savoy Grill and more informal Banquette the superb cuisine of chef/patron Marcus Wareing can be enjoyed. Each restaurant has its own style and character but all are united in their unswerving pursuit of excellence.

The Savoy Grill Since reopening in May 2003 after a stunning refurbishment by American designer Barbara Barry, The Savoy Grill is thriving. Barbara has risen bravely to the challenge of keeping true to the heritage of The Savoy's unique history and provided a retreat for The Savoy Grill's loyal clientele. The famous and beloved banquettes have been dressed in bold neutral stripes, the gold leaf ceiling adds a touch of drama and the rich wood paneling has been restored to its original cognac shades. Although the decor is breathtaking, the food continues to take center stage. Under the guiding hand of Marcus Wareing, one of the country's premier chefs, the new menu reflects modern European in all its glory. Guest response has been swift and quite unanimous. The highly acclaimed cuisine has generated a loyal following, including Michelin as recognized by the awarding of One Michelin Star. Based on what has transpired, it appears that Marcus Wareing is fulfilling his objective. 'I want to bring The Savoy Grill back to its former glory and serve wonderful, exciting food. I want to see the restaurant buzzing, both at lunchtime and in the evenings. The changes I have made will preserve the best traditions of the past whilst creating a vibrant new restaurant'. Hours of Operation: Lunch is served from noon to 2:45 p.m. Monday to Friday and from noon to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Dinner is served from 5:45 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Monday to Friday and from 6:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday Dress Code: Smart, with a jacket preferred.

The American Bar The American Bar first opened in the late 1890's and has been a stylish meeting place for hotel guests and Londoners ever since. In the 1920's The Savoy employed Harry Craddock, an American barman who greatly influenced the London cocktail scene by inventing the 'White Lady' and popularizing such classics as the 'Dry Martini'. To complete the mood, a Jazz Pianist performs from 7:00 p.m. to 12:00 midnight Monday to Thursday and from 7:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. Hours of Operation: Monday to Saturday, 12:00 p.m., noon to 1:00 a.m. Sunday from 12:00 p.m., noon to 10:30 p.m. Dress Code: Smart casual attire is required.

Head Barman - Salim Khoury The head barman of The Savoy's legendary American Bar is Salim Khoury. Salim, who was Assistant Bar Manager under the former Manager Peter Dorelli, first joined The Savoy in 1969 as Head Dispense Barman and moved into the American Bar as Assistant Bar Manager in 1986. During his career, Salim has earned many awards and accolades including the title of Campari Barman of the Year in 1992. In 1993, Salim was second in the International Barman of the Year competition and in 1996 produced an award winning 'Bloody Mary' in a competition of the same name. In 2002, a jury of his peers in the industry elected Salim Barman of the Year in London and South England.

Banquette Banquette, the new upstairs restaurant over The Savoy Grill, is Marcus Wareing's take on an American diner. With its chic interior and tempting menu it is destined to become the most sophisticated diner in town bringing a touch of fun and informality to The Savoy. Barbara Barry's American design for the restaurant evokes the interior of a 1950's Corvette Stingray with a palette of tomato red, ivory, brown with stainless steel and streamlined banquettes that stretch the entire length of the restaurant. The generously proportioned cream leather banquette seating provides diners with a vibrant setting for relaxed eating. Overlooking the entrance of The Savoy, the 40-seat Banquette is an ideal spot for the theatergoer or shopper. Amongst the many enticing dishes on offer will be deep-fried king prawns, chili mayonnaise, Cumberland sausages with onion gravy and traditional Shepherds pie together with desserts, which include warm brownie, vanilla ice cream and banana panna cotta. Under the direction of Marcus Wareing, Josh Emett leads the kitchen team and oversees a menu varying from light salads to an optional three-course meal. With its relaxed menu and retro design, it provides a welcome contrast to the more formal surroundings of The Savoy Grill, giving diners their first ever opportunity to enjoy a truly informal bite at The Savoy Hotel. Hours of Operation: Banquette is open continuously for lunch and dinner from 12.00 noon to 12:00 midnight, seven days a week. Dress Code: Casual

Afternoon Tea Afternoon Tea has been served at The Savoy throughout its entire history. Served in the famous Thames Foyer and accompanied by the sounds of the resident pianist, Afternoon Tea consists of a mouth-watering array of sandwiches with a variety of fresh fillings, delicate pastries, teacakes and scones with clotted cream and strawberry preserve. There is a wide range of distinct blends of tea to choose from, imported by specialist tea suppliers from around the world. The introduction of Afternoon Tea, a quintessentially English tradition, is usually credited to Anna, 7th Duchess of Bedford, in the early 1800s. The Duchess grew hungry between an early luncheon and a late dinner and conceived the idea of a separate meal. This was served in her boudoir in the mid-afternoon to ward off her own - and her guests' - hunger pangs. This delightful tradition lives on at The Savoy today.
