About

RestaurantMediterranean RestaurantEdwardian Hotels
Drawing from the coastlines and kitchens of France, Italy, Greece, and beyond, Whitcomb’s brings the breadth and soul of Mediterranean dining to the heart of London, nestled between St. James and Soho. The dishes are fresh, elegant, and perfect for lunch, dinner, private dining experiences, or a pre/post-theatre meal. As a West End restaurant, we’re just a stone’s throw from theatres such as the London Coliseum, Gielgud Theatre, Duke of York’s Theatre, and more. During the summer, join us to bask in the sunshine on our terrace by Veuve Clicquot, a prime spot for alfresco dining on Leicester Square, serving Champagne tasting flights, cocktails and fresh cuisine. Before your meal, we invite you to enjoy a pre-dinner drink at the nearby gin bar, Joshua’s Tavern, or in the Japanese rooftop garden, 8 at The Londoner.

    We would like to give special recognition to Mohammed, a wonderful waiter at The Londoner Hotel. He is exceptionally kind, polite, warm, friendly, and always wears a genuine smile. His pleasant personality and welcoming attitude made us feel comfortable and truly valued. Mohammed goes above and beyond to make guests feel special, and his service reflects the very best of the hotel’s hospitality. Thank you, Mohammed, for making our experience even more enjoyable. You are a real asset to The Londoner team ❤️ From Guy and Dean

    I had an amazing dining experience at The Whitcomb! The lobster linguine was absolutely delicious, but what truly made the evening special was the exceptional service from Paula. She was warm, personable, and attentive, making us feel right at home from start to finish. Her genuine hospitality elevated the entire experience. Great food is one thing, but service like Paula’s is what makes a restaurant memorable. I would absolutely recommend The Whitcomb and look forward to returning!

    We are local but are staying at the Londoner for my partners birthday. We love food and have eaten in many of London’s restaurant’s. Whitcomb’s had blown us away, we’ve honestly had one of the best meals we’ve ever had in London. All of the flavours worked perfectly together and the lamb and cod were cooked to perfection. The staff were all friendly and attentive, with a special mention to Meriem and Paula who were fabulous and made our experience extra special. Can’t wait to plan our next visit already!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner last week at Whitcomb's. The ceviche starter has a good kick and an Asian flare to it. The steak tartare is smoother than expected from the hand cut description. The decoration with little edible flowers & caviar is a labour of love. The gnocchi has really nice texture and flavorful, roasted tomato sauce. The seabass fillet is outstanding as usual, though it could have been crispier. The cocktail and wine are good too. All in all, another excellent dinner from Whitcomb's.

    Excellent Food in a Beautiful Setting We had a wonderful meal at Whitcomb’s at The Londoner and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. The restaurant itself is beautiful — stylish, spacious and sophisticated, with a relaxed atmosphere. The tables are comfortably positioned, so you don’t feel crowded or as though you are sitting on top of other diners, which makes a real difference. The food was excellent. We started with the steak tartare and salt & pepper squid, both beautifully prepared and full of flavour. The steak tartare was particularly good, while the squid was tender with a lovely crispness. For the main courses, we had the truffle chicken Milanese and the lamb skewers. The chicken Milanese was delicious, generously portioned and the truffle added richness without overpowering the dish. The lamb skewers were beautifully cooked, tender and flavoursome. The sautéed market greens and fries complemented everything perfectly. We also had a bottle of Montes Alpha Carménère from Chile, which was an excellent full-bodied red and worked particularly well with the lamb. Overall, excellent food, a lovely spacious setting and a very enjoyable evening. We would happily return.
