About

L'Escargot, founded in 1896 and housed in a Georgian townhouse that dates back to 1741, is London's oldest and one of its most celebrated French restaurants. Renowned for its classic French cuisine—including its famed snails— the restaurant has catered to a glittering roster of celebrities such as Coco Chanel, Mick Jagger, Elton John, and Kate Moss, and continues to be a staple for theatre‑goers and gourmet diners alike. In February 2024 the venue welcomed a new private‑members club, The Snail Club, on its top floor, offering an exclusive dining experience for members. With its elegant atmosphere, attentive service and unpretentious dress code, L'Escargot remains a timeless destination for lovers of French gastronomy in the heart of Soho.
