Sloane Place is welcoming spring in style this month with a brand-new all-day dining menu that merges European flavours with the finest British ingredients.
Just a stone’s throw from Sloane Square—where the first of the season’s blooms are already wowing passers-by ahead of the world-famous Flower Show—this Chelsea gem is giving Londoners a taste of sunnier shores right on their doorstep.
Fittingly for the new season, the menu pays homage to modern European culinary traditions while still tipping its hat to the restaurant’s refined Chelsea surroundings.
Wander down Lower Sloane Street and kick things off with a classic Beef Carpaccio featuring Walnuts and Tête de Moine cheese, or try a zesty tartare of yellowtail served with avocado and a light chilli dressing. If you’re pining for Italy, Burrata with Datterini Tomatoes, Olive Oil and Basil offers a comforting slice of la dolce vita.
For those wanting something reminiscent of a summer holiday, few dishes bring that al fresco feeling like a Croque Monsieur made with toasted brioche, shaved ham and a moreish blend of Emmental and Comté cheeses.
Pair it with Rosemary and Onion Fries, and you’ll practically hear the sea lapping in the distance. More substantial mains include a succulent Grilled Rib-Eye with Café de Paris Butter, a flavour-packed Grilled Salmon with Sautéed Kale and Pink Fir Potatoes, or an indulgent Veal Schnitzel with Brown Butter, Capers and Anchovies for those still craving last year’s schnitzel craze.
Make sure to save room for dessert. The Sloane Place Signature Chocolate Hazelnut Marquise is guaranteed to round things off with luxurious flair, while a Salted Caramel Espresso Martini—made with Mr Black, Espresso and salted caramel syrup—offers the perfect post-dinner pick-me-up.
The creativity behind the menu comes courtesy of Head Chef George Scott-Toft, who will soon be overseeing The Sloane Club’s kitchen upon its re-opening.
Trained in Australia and seasoned in acclaimed establishments such as Peter Doyle’s est. and Mark Best’s Marque,
George honed his craft further in London at renowned spots including Pierre Gagnaire’s Sketch: The Lecture Room & Library, and The Greenhouse with Antonin Bonnet.
He later earned a Michelin star with the team at Serge et le Phoque, followed by a successful stint at The Mandrake Hotel. His move to Chelsea marks a new chapter, leading both Sloane Place and The Sloane Club.
“The team and I are excited to be sharing the hard work that’s been going on behind the scenes in the kitchens, both at Sloane Place and The Sloane Club, steering the menus in a slightly new direction and renewing the focus on the great British produce that is available to us, especially with the arrival of Spring,” commented Head Chef, George Scott-Toft.
“It’s an honour to be heading up the kitchens at two such iconic establishments,” he continued. “They each allow an opportunity to showcase the best of classic British cuisine in their own way, with room for a sense of adventure, too. I’m looking forward to continuing to shape the offering as time goes on.”
For those planning a visit to the Chelsea Flower Show this May (20th–24th), there’s no better time to drop by and savour Sloane Place’s latest creations.
The show’s companion event, Chelsea in Bloom—produced by Cadogan in collaboration with the Royal Horticultural Society—brings floral festivities to the streets of Chelsea, with eye-catching displays adorning more than 100 businesses.
Celebrations don’t have to end there. If you’re gathering with friends or marking a special occasion, Sloane Place Restaurant’s elegant private dining room can seat up to 20 guests. Bathed in natural light, it sets the scene for both intimate afternoon get-togethers and lively evening soirées, complete with signature cocktails from expert bartenders.
