Harden's survey result
Summary
Chef William Drabble maintains a low profile but his “expert cuisine” inspires a small but smitten fan club for this under-the-radar dining room in a swish St James’s hotel – a “cosy room with enough room between tables for privacy”. “He remains in the kitchen, where he belongs, and remains my favourite chef!”
Summary
“The food actually reduced my husband to tears (in a good way!)…” The “quirky but cosy” dining room of this luxurious St James’s hotel deserves a much higher profile – “staff take real pride in their work and take such good care of you”, and William Drabble’s “consistently reliable and refined” cooking is “too delicious for words”.
Summary
This “gorgeous”, “very small, but comfortable and cosy dining room” is “so private” within a luxurious St James’s hotel. It deserves to be better known thanks to its “genuinely kind, helpful and passionate” staff and – last but not least – William Drabble’s “first rate cuisine”.
Summary
“To hell with the cost!” – this “charming restaurant attached to a St James’s hotel” is often nominated for business entertaining but deserves more attention generally, as William Drabble’s “highly accomplished” cuisine is “remarkably good”. Top Tip – “excellent value set lunch”.
Owner's description
Seven Park Place by William Drabble was launched in September 2009 and was awarded one Michelin star only one year after opening and four AA Rosettes. In Seven Park Place William Drabble has created his own inimitable style menu, influenced by classic French cuisine but made using the best British ingredients and taking inspiration from the seasons. Of course, like any great chef, William has his signature dishes, poached native lobster tail with cauliflower purée and lobster butter sauce springs to mind, but his continuing love of good food ensures that each dish he creates is as exquisite as the next. To reflect the style of his menu William was heavily involved with the design and decor of Seven Park Place, an elegant and intimate space, with only 26 covers and nine tables. The restaurant uses rich colours and natural fabrics in bright, jewel inspired colours, to produce a stunning backdrop for the perfect dining experience.

"One of the best chefs in London both the luncheon menu and the tasting menu are excellent."
"Outstanding on all counts. Worth more than just one Michelin rosette. The three course lunch with matching wines, while not cheap, is good value. A very stylish place."
