Just a short walk from Borough Market, Lady of the Grapes London Bridge brings together a carefully curated wine programme and a menu inspired by French cooking. The sister site to the original Covent Garden wine bar, it continues the brand’s focus on natural, organic and biodynamic wines, pairing them with seasonal dishes designed to let quality ingredients shine.
Inside, the restaurant offers a warm and understated setting, with exposed brickwork, wooden tables and a compact dining room that lends itself to relaxed lunches, evening drinks and informal dinners. The intimate layout makes it particularly well suited to couples and small groups, while its location on Stoney Street places it in the heart of one of London’s most popular food destinations.
Food takes a classic, produce-led approach, drawing inspiration from French culinary traditions without overcomplicating the plate. The menu changes with the seasons and features a concise selection of sharing plates, starters and mains, all designed to complement the extensive wine offering. Expect ingredient-focused dishes that showcase careful sourcing and straightforward execution, allowing both the food and wine to take centre stage.
Start with the likes of courgette fritters with harissa mayo, sea bream crudo with apricot and coriander or steak tartare with mustard sauce and topped with an egg yolk. Moving onto mains, expect the likes of chicken supreme with oyster mushrooms and chicken liver mousse, or poached trout served with corn and mussels in a butter sauce. An express lunch menu is also available for those popping in for a quick bite, with two or three courses available for a fixed cost.
Wine remains the main attraction at Lady of the Grapes. The list highlights bottles from independent producers, with a particular emphasis on organic, biodynamic and low-intervention wines from across France and beyond. Knowledgeable staff are on hand to guide guests through the selection, whether you're looking for a single glass or a bottle to accompany a full meal.
