Upscale French Fare Just a Stroll from the Stage

Head Chef Anthony Demetre crafts refined dishes using seasonal British ingredients with French flair, making it a go-to for food lovers seeking elegance without pretension. Whether you're popping in for a pre-show prix fixe or lingering over dessert, Wild Honey combines style and substance.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is key—Wild Honey is just a short walk from major concert halls and theatres, making it an easy stop before the show starts. The restaurant offers a pre-theatre menu that's both delicious and timely, with guests praising the quick and attentive service. The calm, classy atmosphere is a welcome contrast to the buzz of the city, letting you unwind or build the excitement before heading out.

What People Say

The set menu gets high marks for its value, with diners saying it’s a great deal for the quality. Many note the professional, friendly service that keeps things moving efficiently—ideal when you're on a tight concert schedule.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the à la carte menu can be on the pricier side, so sticking to the pre-theatre option may be best for budget-focused nights. A few also found the atmosphere a touch too serene if you're in the mood for something more high-energy before a gig.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers seeking refined French dining just minutes from London’s top venues, Wild Honey St James strikes the perfect chord.
