New for Weekday Lunchtimes
Monday-Friday only
In addition to our daily changing prix fixe lunch menu we have introduced some à la carte choices. Much loved dishes such as Escargots de Bourgogne and Fillet steak au poivre can now be enjoyed at lunch time.
Many regular customers have told us they would like the choice of à la carte at lunch as well as dinner so we have introduced this new menu in response to their suggestions
Sunday best
Bibendum Restaurant is fighting off the Sunday night blues with a new and exciting Sunday Supper menu.
Priced at a deliciously tempting £29·50 for three courses, the menu changes every Sunday, encouraging return visits. Chef Matthew Harris has created a range of dishes that offer customers a relaxed, cosy version of the legendary cuisine for which the Restaurant is renowned. Those looking for classic Sunday night comfort food will be reassured by immaculate versions of old-fashioned favourites such as Omelette Arnold Bennett, Gloucester old spot pork chops, steak béarnaise, and haddock and chips; while there are also some contemporary and oriental choices for those preferring to inject a little spice into their evening. All dishes are complete with no need for side orders or extras.
Matthew Harris says, “While we offer a set menu at lunch time, evening diners have previously been restricted to a la carte. Sunday Suppers is about eating at the Restaurant without having to come up with a celebration or special occasion.”
Booking essential for a table in Bibendum’s Restaurant.
The Bibendum Cookbook – the Restaurant’s first cookbook
A unique record of an iconic London landmark and a classic cookbook.
Bibendum’s first cookbook, a collaboration between founding chef, Simon Hopkinson, and head chef, Matthew Harris, is published this autumn to celebrate Bibendum’s 21st birthday.
Matthew Harris has devised over 40 recipes for autumn, winter, spring and summer, and and Simon Hopkinson reveals ten classics which have stood the test of time. This is simple, stylish food at its best.
Wonderful photography from Lisa Linder captures the food, the architectural detail of this beautiful building,
and the excitement of a
busy London restaurant.

Most consistently excellent restaurant
Bibendum Restaurant picked up the award for most consistently excellent restaurant at the Tatler Louis Roederer Restaurant Awards 2008.
Matthew Harris executive chef/director, and Simon Hopkinson, co-proprieter, received the award at the ceremony held at the Intercontinental on Park Lane. Matthew Harris said, “We are absolutely delighted to receive this award. Much has changed in Bibendum’s twenty-year history, but the original ethos of producing classic food using the best quality seasonal ingredients continues today. Consistent excellence is what every chef strives for – to be recognised for it by this award gives us great satisfaction.”
