Located in the historic vaults of The Royal Exchange, The Libertine is the new home of indulgence in the heart of the city.

Sitting on the site where the very first royal alcohol licence in Britain was granted, the space is steeped in hedonism and mischief. The bustle and opportunity around the old Royal Exchange, built in 1571, attracted merchant, heralds and rogues from across the city and beyond. Once the day’s work was done (and often before), the assembled traders would partake of boisterous ‘tippling’ in the vaults under the Exchange.

The Libertine is a modern revival of those free spirited times, with spaces for drinking, dining and unwinding well into the night, away from prudish prying eyes. Enjoy wholesome seasonal fare prepared with the finest quality produce from lunch until late.

Enjoy a hearty Sunday roast, enjoyed in beautiful surroundings with great company. The Sunday roast is prepared with meat sourced from high-welfare farms, locally sourced seasonal vegetables, fluffy Yorkshire puddings and crisp roast potatoes with lashings of rich gravy, every Sunday at The Libertine.

    We ordered for the table starters followed by burgers, steaks and lobster rolls 🦞. Between all of all us, some people loved the starters, some others were less enthusiastic. The only minor point of feedback is with portions, the lobster rolls could've been bigger. But the quality of the food and the wine was really good.

    Super kind people to serve, special atmosphere but what loved most about this restaurant is amazing dishes. I went to have dinner with my boss. He ordered kind of signature menu like Libertine Seafood (please correct me if I was wrong about the name of menu) and I ordered Wagyu Burger. My boss absolutely felt satisfied and happy with the dish! And, my burger was gone right after it was served to me... where was my burger gone in a second?? Apparently, my stomach. One of the best burger I have ever had before! Highly recommend! Please note that you should make reservation because it is a very popular restaurant! Will revisit if I come to London next time! ps. I came across I lost my beanie with the logo "Bloomenergy". I guess I left it over there. Can you please check out your lost and found and let me know?

    Absolutely loved this place! The food was incredible—fresh, flavorful, and they had great gluten-free options too. The vibe of the restaurant was unique and welcoming, perfect for a family dinner or night out. Big shoutout to Dinho who went above and beyond with their service—super friendly and attentive. Highly recommend if you're looking for delicious food, cocktails and a great atmosphere!
