Just a two-minute walk from Leicester Square station, Le Garrick is a long-standing, family-run bistro delivering regional French cuisine with flair and warmth. Tucked inside a historic Georgian townhouse, this cosy West End gem is ideal for romantic dinners, birthday celebrations or relaxed pre-theatre dining.
Inside, velvet seats, candle-lit tables, vintage posters and art-lined walls set a charming tone, while booth seating and an open-plan layout create a sociable, inviting atmosphere.
Open for lunch and dinner Monday to Saturday, Le Garrick offers a popular pre- and post-theatre menu.

The a la carte menu features French favourites with a twist, from escargots de Bourgogne and foie gras to beef bourguignon, cassoulet, confit de canard and seasonal risottos. There’s also a vegan dish of the day, as well as plenty of vegetarian options and sides such as petit pois, seasonal greens and crisp frites.
Round off your meal with a classic French pudding including the likes of creme brulee, tarte au citron, fondant au chocolat or petit pot au chocolat. On the drinks front, guests can explore the carefully curated wine list, with help from the in-house sommelier to choose the perfect pairing for their meal.
