Top five lunch menus for Valentine’s Day in London

Every once in a while, all the forces in the universe come together to provide us with the perfect holiday. This year, Hallmark’s favourite holiday falls on a Sunday. So instead of spending this one with residual anxiety about Monday while watching Netflix on repeat, take your pick from our top five places to have a cosy lunch with your Valentine, secret or not. Ranging from fancy to low-key, these restaurants have the best to offer.

Sketch, Mayfair
What could be better than a decadent afternoon in the Michelin two-star Lecture Room & Library at Sketch? This eccentric space in the heart of the city has created a special Valentine’s menu to please you and yours. The set menu includes a ticket for the Manet: Portraying Life exhibition at the Royal Academy, along with a range of dishes to choose from, including but not limited to foie gras, oyster gratin, guinea fowl and an enviable cheese board. A four-course lunch (inclusive of coffee and dessert) with tickets to the exhibition is priced at £65 per person, £55 without a visit to the gallery.

The fare is primarily influenced by French Indian colony Pondicherry, and does not disappoint. The brunch is priced at £40 per person.
