The Michelin-starred cuisine is modeled after that of a French bistro. A glass wall separates the dining area from the kitchen, so you can watch your food being prepared.

Isabel, a popular bar in Mayfair, is a visual treat with its gold-fabric-lined walls, polished rosewood bar, and shiny silver lighting. It was opened in 2017 by Chilean banker-turned-restaurateur Juan Santa Cruz as a more feminine alternative to his glitzy Casa Cruz in Notting Hill. A hardwood corridor leads to the gilded dining room, which features Art Deco and Chinoiserie décor and is visited by the well-heeled guests, thanks to the restaurant’s 300 overhead lamps, which appear even more radiant than usual. The bathrooms’ hand-painted wallpaper by de Gournay is the most photogenic.

3. Riding House Café

The Riding House Café, on the lower level of a stunning Victorian building in Fitzrovia, is yet another fantastic spot for a picture shoot. One half is much larger than the other, so you can sit inside or outside; if you want to dine at a table by the window, you can people-watch like a movie star. Sandwiches, salads, and full dinners are all available at Riding House Café, and the options for breakfast are superb.

If you prefer vegan food, they have that, too. Sometimes it seems like the staff doesn’t know what they’re doing, and other times you’re treated like royalty, but that’s about it as far as consistency goes. It’s probably up to whichever waiter is on duty.

4. Ivy Chelsea Garden
