Nestled on Swallow Street, Mayfair, Bentley's epitomises timeless elegance with a century-long tradition of celebrating Champagne and Oysters. Still shucking over 1000 oysters a day, Chef Richard Corrigan has led Bentley's since 2005, curating a menu that pays homage to its heritage with a diverse selection of oysters, wild seafood, and premium cuts sourced from the British & Irish Isles.

Bentley's stands as an iconic London restaurant restored in 2005 under Corrigan's visionary leadership. The acclaimed venue offers a warm, friendly ambiance with linen-clad tables, wooden floors, an enviable art collection and a heated terrace.

Explore our four exclusive private dining options, from The Crustacea accommodating up to 14 guests, while the Swallow Street Rooms, with a private bar and street entrance, host events for up to 60. Experience Bentley's, where history, gastronomy, and hospitality converge for an unforgettable dining experience.

      Overall nice experience but not very impressive. Friendly staffs…Dressed crab very fresh, the sirloin steak slightly overcooked(we asked for medium) oysters not the best that we’ve ever tasted. Lobster bisque just quite ordinary.

      A great restaurant with lovely food and good service. Its ambience is nice, too. The cost of a meal is a td on the high side.

      This is a superb seafood high end dining experience. Wait staff are very experienced and knowledgeable about the menu and how food is prepared on the extensive menu. Special shout out to Steven who served my table on Friday. Balanced wine list accompanied all courses. Would recommend for lunch and dinner, pre theatre, business lunches and special occasions.
