A Culinary Institution Since 1967
For over five decades, Le Gavroche set the standard for French cuisine in Mayfair, delivering an unmatched dining experience. Founded in 1967 by Albert and Michel Roux Snr, it became the first restaurant in London to offer classic French gastronomy at the highest level. Under the leadership of Michel Roux Jr from 1991, the restaurant built a reputation for elegant dishes, impeccable service, and an atmosphere that reflected true culinary excellence. Though the Upper Brook Street location closed in January 2024, the Le Gavroche name continues to bring its iconic dishes to pop-up events across the UK and beyond.
Michel Roux Jr’s Continuing Influence

The restaurant’s signature fine dining experience, known for its rich French flavours, continues to inspire chefs and food lovers alike. From indulgent soufflés to expertly crafted wine pairings, the spirit of Le Gavroche remains at the heart of modern gastronomy. With a strong legacy and ongoing presence in the UK food scene, fans of the restaurant can still enjoy its signature touch through special appearances and collaborations.
