Hanover Square is getting a very impressive-sounding new restaurant in the shape of The Maine.

It's part of a full redevelopment of a 18th-century Georgian townhouse, so it's going to look pretty special. They'll be fitting in 350 people across its three floors and outside terrace - so it's quite the endeavour. It's all part of the completion of the big Crossrail-related

But first, let us remind you of the Michelin-starred French version of Jamie Oliver. What? Well, that’s how we referenced chef Cyril Lignac, when we told you about his new Mayfair restaurant Bar des Prés that ...

Richard Caring's Mayfair empire continues to grow, with news that he's taken on the old Porsche showroom at 1 Mount Street.

This Art-Deco inspired Mayfair hotel took an extended leave of absence over the past year or so to allow the creation of a new bar as well as gently redesigning the lobby, restaurant and terrace. We checked ourselves in for an overnight stay and tried both The Colony Grill Room and the new bar. 

José Pizarro brings tapas to the RA - we head along to see if that's as great a match as we think it is. 

Claridges, already home to Davies and Brook, two bars, and another restaurant in the foyer, has managed to eke out some extra space for just one more restaurant.

This time, it's down in the belly of the hotel in the kitchens. They've created a space called L'Epicerie which sees 14 people seated on a dining table in the heart of the kitchen. It's right in
