What’s your absolute favourite restaurant to go to for a lovely lunch on a weekend?

I like the various branches of Mildreds but they are buzzy and bustling, not Michelin star stuff.

Jacuzzi on Kensington High St

Mildred’s is great. Also like Bubala

My favourite restaurant was an Italian which has now sadly shut.

I've personally never been, but a friend raves about 'The Ned' and their all you can eat buffet.

I've never had a bad meal at the German Gymnasium at Kings Cross.

Savoir Faire - just past centre point. French family run and gorgeous.

Andrew Edmunds, French House or Noble Rot during the winter (all in Soho).

Fischer's on Marylebone High Street

Happy London is my favourite

Le Sacre Coeur, Islington is a lovely French bistro about 10 minutes on foot from Angel tube.

Maroush for Lebanese and Hoppers for Sri Lankan.

Noble Rot or Bouchon Racine

Lemonia, Primrose Hill.

Aribica in Borough Market for Middle Eastern - food is always fantastic and great for mixed groups if you have vegetarian and meat eaters.

The Gun on Isle of Dogs does a great Sunday roast as does Blacklock Canary Wharf & Brindisa at Borough does lovely Tapas lunch

Do pubs count? The bull and last near parliament hill

The food here is wonderful

Town on Drury Street. Or the Delaunay on the Aldwych. Or the French House in SoHo. Also Cafe Francois in Borough Market.

Depends where you are and what mood you are in - if central brasserie zedel is reliable and fun so is where we usually go (if not going for dim sum).

Crikey, that's a tough one as there are so many good places.

Another vote for Bouchon Racine, great French food.

It used to be the much-missed Great Queen Street. Now I would probably say Berners Tavern.

Thanks for the suggestions! Have been to a few of these… Do please keep them coming ☺️

Im quite old fashioned I think- always love The Cow in Notting Hill, Ottolenghi on Upper Street which is just fine for food but always makes me feel like it’s the 90s and I’m an extra in a Richard Curtis film, Honey and Co- particularly for the brunch end of lunch, and The Boot and Flogger in Southwark for Sunday lunch.
