Courtesan is a dim sum restaurant, cocktail bar and live entertainment venue at 69 Atlantic Road in Brixton. Its richly decorated dining room combines dinner with cabaret and burlesque, creating an atmospheric setting for celebrations, late evenings and weekends that continue well beyond the meal.
Dim sum is prepared across steamed, fried and baked styles, allowing guests to choose contrasting textures and share several baskets or plates. Bao filled with chicken, honey pork, duck and mushroom or vegetables sit alongside dumplings and other small dishes designed for a varied progression through the menu.
Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free choices are given meaningful space, helping mixed groups order widely from the same selection. Sauces and carefully balanced fillings bring sweetness, spice and savoury depth, while the compact format of dim sum makes it easy to add dishes gradually through the evening.
The drinks programme highlights wine and spirits made by women, with imaginative cocktails complementing the theatrical surroundings. An all female kitchen and regular live performers reinforce the venue’s distinctive identity, while brunch, dinner, collection and delivery provide different ways to experience Courtesan.
