Breaking news

April 2023: After being closed for several years for a major refurbishment - the NPG restaurant reopens in June 2023, with Richard Corrigan in charge. There will also be an all-day café on the ground-floor and basement of the gallery which will transform every evening into a late-night bar with a small-plates menu. Called Audrey Green (see also), it will be run by the Australian group Daisy Green.

“Cracking views over the rooftops of Trafalgar Square and beyond from a sun-drenched room” earn the NPG’s top-floor dining room decent ratings as a venue for brunch, lunch or afternoon tea, or for an “early supper before the opera at the Coliseum”. The food is “quite adequate” although “not spectacular”. (There’s also a Spartan café in the basement).

For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
