The 9 Most Expensive Restaurants In London, As Of 2022
London boasts more than 60 Michelin star restaurants making the city a go-to for almost every famous chef in the world. Celebrity chefs like Gordan Ramsey, Marcus Wareing and Jamie Oliver have graced the streets with premium dining options and a variety not seen in any other city in the world.
Be prepared to spend a pretty penny however, as most of the exclusive and luxurious dining options can cost $170 to more than $600 per plate. The atmosphere, premium dishes and overall experience might be well worth the cost for those that can afford it – not to mention privacy for celebrity A-listers. Celebrity chefs bring in their peers from Hollywood, like Jennifer Lawrence, David Beckham, Tom Cruise, and even members of the Royal family.
Check out some of the most expensive London restaurants in 2022.
9 Apsleys at The Lanesborough – $170 per person
The Mediterranean restaurant was the fastest London venue to ever win a Michelin star, just one year after its grand opening in 2010.
