Celebrated French chef Claude Bosi launched Claude Bosi at Bibendum back in 2017, with a ground-floor seafood and oyster bar and first-floor restaurant which is ‘unashamedly fine dining’, with the chef's signature contemporary and light-hearted flair.

The a la carte menu features some of his signature classics and the chef’s Michelin-starred alma matter, with ingredients sourced predominantly from the British Isles and France. The striking upstairs dining room with its dramatic and iconic floor-to-ceiling stained glass windows has been redesigned to house a larger central open kitchen. The light and airy dining room will feature the original Conran chairs with a soft colour palate of muted blues.

    Delicious food, full of flavours and excellent presentation. Great service. The dining room was barely heated and the environment coincided with the cold that was felt. Either way, it's one of those restaurants that is worth it and you want to go back again.

    The food is well presented and the service is really good, all waiters are very friendly and with the right dose of informality to make the experience a relaxed one. How we the food is fairly bland and lacks punch

    We went for the Tastes of the Season 3 course set menu and three of us had one of everything. There wasn't a bad dish amongst them.

    It was my partner’s birthday and the staff made sure to make it a special occasion . We were invited to meet Claude himself and our every need was catered to. I have been to lots of Michelin restaurants but this was by far the stand out. An experience as it should be.

    Having lived in London for the past five years, we have explored nearly all Michelin-starred restaurants in the city, including Alain Ducasse, Sketch, and Restaurant Gordon Ramsay. With this experience, we approached Claude Bosi at Bibendum expecting a meal reflective of its two-star status. Unfortunately, the experience failed to meet those standards. We selected a 5-course tasting menu, substituting two dishes with the signature chicken. Instead of accommodating this adjustment, the final bill reflected the full 5-course menu alongside the chicken, charging us for two courses we did not consume. Such errors are unacceptable at this level. While financial constraints are not a concern for us, paying premium prices demands precision and accountability, which were absent here. The food itself, while competent, was uninspiring and lacked the creativity and depth we’ve come to expect from Michelin-starred establishments. The signature chicken, though serviceable, did not live up to its reputation. Service was equally underwhelming. When Claude Bosi personally served the chicken, we felt honored and requested a photo, which he promised to take later but never returned. This dismissive attitude felt unprofessional and arrogant, detracting further from the experience. A two-star restaurant should deliver not just great food, but impeccable hospitality and a sense of occasion—none of which were present. Claude Bosi at Bibendum did not provide a two-star experience. Between the lackluster food, inattentive service, and poor value for money, it fell well short of expectations. For a true Michelin-standard experience, we would recommend seeking alternatives where culinary excellence and hospitality are taken seriously.
