The Ledbury

With a focus on classic British ingredients, standout dishes on Brett Graham’s two-Michelin-starred menu include white beetroot baked in clay served with smoked eel, sake cream and char roe; native lobster wrapped in shiitake with peas and lemon; and purple aubergine with olives and sunflower seeds. Voted number 64 in this year’s World’s 50 Best Restaurants, The Ledbury is the epitome of fine dining, but in the coolest of settings – the restaurant is housed inside a former pub, giving it a distinctly relaxed, laid-back vibe.
