A refined pan-European brasserie that melds the luxurious with the comforting, The Delaunay draws in a varied crowd with its elegant interior and delicious food.
Taking heed of the traditional European grand cafes, The Delaunay is an all-day brasserie that manages to maintain its classiness without becoming stuffy.
Their daily breakfast menu consists of Viennoiserie, classic egg dishes and inventive specialities such as oatmeal souffle with rhubarb and apple or grilled kippers with mustard butter. It’s the weekend Brunch that truly wins though: an array of hors d’ouevres set the tone for the meal, with a cured salmon tartare, Carlingford Rock oysters and golden borscht being just a handful of the options.
Take a bite out of German cuisine with their range of Wurschten and sausages (the best of which is a pork and marjoram Turinger) or wiener schnitzels or enjoy a Parisian tartes flambees with smoked bacon and shallots.
Expect wood panelled rooms, original artwork and discreet yet glamorous touches such as the carefully chosen floristry, leather backed chairs and low lighting, which gives an intimate feel to dining.
It’s ideally located along Aldwych, readily accessible by rail, either from Covent Garden or Temple Underground Stations, both of which are just a short stroll away.
