The Kimpton Fitzroy London, a landmark hotel known for its refined combination of historic charm and modern luxury, has recently announced the opening of Fitz’s Russell Sq., the brand’s new dining concept designed to delight epicureans and casual diners alike.

Fitz’s Brasserie invites patrons to embark on a gastronomic journey paying homage to British cuisine with refreshing twists. The menu, crafted by esteemed chefs, showcases a fusion of seasonal British ingredients and innovative techniques. Highlights include Seared Scallops with ‘nduja Butter, Oxfordshire Lamb Ramp with a variety of accompaniments, and a selection of sophisticated vegetarian options.

Fitz’s Parlour provides a more casual alternative where no reservations are required.

Completing the experience, Fitz’s Bar remains a destination for those desiring a luxurious nightcap. Within the setting of a sumptuous décor, the cocktail menu The Theory Of Colour is inspired by 17th-century still life flower paintings of the artist Nicolaes van Verendeal.
