Thinking about making a Champagne Charlies booking?
Champagne Charlies in Covent Garden does not disappoint. One of the delights of London exploration is to find a hidden gem tucked away in some less-than-likely spot. London’s ancient, winding streets and stop-start, organic urban landscape are a haven for such treasure troves, and we’re pleased to say that Champagne Charlies is one such spot. Found in The Arches of Charing Cross, along Villiers Street, Champagne Charlies is a wine bar first and foremost. Fans of real ale will not be disappointed, though, with a great selection of ales served in pewter jugs. It’s all traditional in here, with the decor all exposed wooden beams supporting a cosily low ceiling, stripped-back brick walls lined with antiquarian objects of fascination. A venerable spot perfect for a fine wine tasting session.
Champagne Charlies’ Villiers Street premises – under The Arches of Charing Cross – are also perfect for private hire. Several enclosed side-rooms of the old-school glass-panelled booth variety are ideal for small-group dining, but the whole joint can be booked out, too. And, if you’re out for some London theatre and need a pre-show meal, Covent Garden’s Champagne Charlies offers a great value two-course meal between 5 and 7pm. All Davy's Champagne Charlies dishes are British classic, brought up to date by the restaurant’s executive chef using only fresh, seasonal, and locally-sourced produce.
