There’s nothing more quintessentially British than the Sunday roast; golden potatoes, tender meat, lashings of gravy, and all the trimmings. But in London, this age-old tradition has been elevated into an art form. Across the city, chefs are taking the humble roast and transforming it into a glamorous, indulgent affair, perfect for long, leisurely Sundays that blend comfort and culinary sophistication.
From Michelin-worthy menus to chic, modern twists on the classic, here are six of the capital’s most stylish Sunday roast experiences.
Glamour Meets Indulgence at MR PORTER
Step into glamour at Park Lane’s latest dining destination, MR PORTER Restaurant, Bar and Lounge, where indulgence meets elegance for their refined roast experience. Choose from three delectable options: Roast Loin of Beef, Pork Belly/Pork Rack, or Butternut Wellington each served with roasted potatoes, glazed parsnips, heritage carrots, and Savoy cabbage, finished with a rich red wine sauce. Every plate is designed to be both luxurious and delicate, with autumn warmth throughout, served in a space as stylish as the menu itself.
Bébé Bob’s French Twist on the Classic
Bébé Bob, the Soho restaurant renowned for its luxurious take on rotisserie chicken, offers a French-inspired twist on the British Sunday roast (from £26). Surrounded by eclectic art deco interiors, diners can enjoy rare-breed roast chicken from Vendée, accompanied by crispy chicken fat potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, and roasted carrots and parsnips. To elevate the experience, opt for the indulgent truffle cauliflower cheese and begin with Bébé Bob’s signature pairing: caviar and vodka — the Bébé Bump.
Sundays at The Twenty Two
At The Twenty Two, Sundays become a true celebration of joie-de-vivre. Chef Alan Christie leads the kitchen with a menu featuring Roast Cornish Red Chicken, Roast Mount Grace Farm Lamb, and Roast Sirloin of Aberdeen Beef, each served with Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, and seasonal vegetables. Complement your feast with sides like truffle mashed potato, sprouting broccoli, or the signature 22 summer salad, and pair it all with selections from the restaurant’s diverse wine list, which spans Sussex to the Sonoma Coast.
Indulgence in Mayfair at Langan’s Brasserie

A Latin American Feast at Amazónico
For a Sunday experience with a tropical twist, head to Amazónico for their weekend Asado menu — the ultimate luxury alternative to the traditional roast.
Designed for sharing, the menu celebrates premium meat cuts grilled over open flame with Latin American flair, with the signature Parrilla Mixta at its heart.
