Romantic Restaurants in London at Harrods

Words by Louise Springham


Date nights come in many forms – from sipping Beaujolais on a sun-soaked beach to sharing a cosy takeaway at home. But when it comes to creating unforgettable moments, few experiences rival dining at one of the most romantic restaurants in London – especially on the day dedicated to love.


That’s why we’ve curated a selection of romance-ready spots right here at Harrods. Whether you’re searching for a low-lit Italian hideaway for your first Valentine’s date or panoramic terrace views for a milestone anniversary, these romantic London restaurants promise an atmosphere as exquisite as the food.

The Georgian

Live jazz, plush velvet banquettes and a canopy of shimmering chandeliers: date spots don’t come more glamorous than The Georgian. Restored in 2024, our historic Art Deco ballroom exudes old-world charm. But it’s not just the setting that makes it a must-visit.


The Georgian's exquisite afternoon tea has been named one of London's finest for good reason; every last bite brought to your table, from a trio of dainty sandwiches to the masterful seasonal patisseries, have been crafted with the utmost skill. Served from lunchtime all the way through to early evening, this is the ideal spot for a memorable daytime Valentine's Day date.

Moët & Chandon Champagne Bar

Sometimes simple elegance is the key to the perfect date – we’re talking a few glasses of fizz, some nibbles and friendly service to boot. Few places do this better than the Ground Floor’s Moët & Chandon Champagne Bar.


Take a seat at the hand-sculpted bar and delve into a menu featuring a vast array of Moët & Chandon cuvées, ranging from the classic Brut Impérial to rare vintages exclusive to Harrods. There’s no need to fret if you’re feeling spoilt for choice; tasting flights including The Rosé Encounter are just the way to add a celebratory air to proceedings at the Moët & Chandon Champagne Bar.


Whether it’s a glass or two each, a flight, or a bottle to share, you’ll want something to nibble on whilst sipping on your Champagne and making small talk. Why not opt for half a dozen Carlingford oysters alongside your bubbles, each finished with pineapple, pink pepper and a touch of fresh Thai basil? It’s a winning combination for a reason, after all.

The Grill on Fifth

Date night food doesn’t get more classic than a perfectly pink steak and a bottle of red wine, but a special occasion, such as Valentine's Day, deserves something on a whole new level. Head up to the Fifth Floor for exactly that.


Boasting incredible terrace views across Knightsbridge and serving only the most exceptional cuts of meat from across the world, The Grill on Fifth is all about quality ingredients cooked simply yet masterfully. Keep things classic and opt for a couple of wagyu smashed double cheeseburgers or push the boat out and share a huge 1kg tomahawk steak between the two of you. The decision is yours! And our limited-edition Valentine’s Charlotte is a must-try for any love birds who share a sweet tooth – a chiffon vanilla sponge layered with almond crunch, strawberry & yuzu compote and vanilla mousse.


For a more intimate affair, don’t forget about The Grill down in the Dining Hall, where you’ll find a menu that still includes that incredible sharing Tomahawk, alongside plenty of other options.

Pasta Evangelists

When you want to feel like you’re in a Federico Fellini film eating authentic Italian food, you know you’re in safe hands when Giancarlo Perbellini, the chef behind two-Michelin-star restaurant in Verona: Casa Perbellini, is at the helm. Sat beneath the splendour of the historic Grade-II listed Dining Hall, watch as the chefs cook your favourite fresh pasta dishes, all while being serenaded by live music.


Order a pasta sharing selection – we recommend the tender beef ragu with ribbons of mafaldine, spicy lobster spaghetti with semi-dried tomato and basil and the cacio e pepe with cave-aged pecorino. Perfect for those who can’t resist a bite from their partner’s plate – or anyone who knows that intimacy is best served in a dish shared.

Pizzeria & Pasqua

For a Valentine’s Day that’s as unforgettable as the first bite, Pizzeria & Pasqua brings rustic Italian charm with a delightful side of romance. Start with creamy burrata on caponata – the kind of dish that practically demands a toast – paired with a glass of Pasqua Romeo e Julietta Prosecco. Then dive into hand-stretched pizzas or silky spinach and ricotta ravioli.


Every good love story deserves a happy ending (at least in our opinion), so we suggest finishing finish with our Valentine's-exclusive Hibiscus and Blueberry Tart: floral, fruity, and almost too pretty to eat...almost. Pair with a glass of Harrods Rosé Brut and you've got the ultimate recipe for romance: bubbles, dessert, and a table for two.

Dim Sum by China Tang

For those who find romance in nuanced flavours and a touch of theatre, Dim Sum by China Tang is the perfect destination. Picture steaming baskets of handcrafted dumplings, glossy bao buns and plates designed for sharing – because nothing says intimacy like leaning in over dim sum. The setting is just as alluring: elegant interiors, soft lighting, and an atmosphere that feels made for whispered conversations and lingering glances.


Pair your feast with a glass of Champagne or a fragrant tea for a celebration that’s equal parts indulgent and unforgettable. After all, date night deserves more than the ordinary – and few romantic restaurants in London do extraordinary quite like this.
