Bennie Restaurant & Bar is a modern European restaurant at 102 Great Portland Street in Fitzrovia. Its polished but relaxed dining room works for brunch, an informal lunch, an evening meal or a private celebration.
The kitchen takes European classics and adds its own contemporary detail, moving between smaller plates, sharing dishes and composed mains. Mediterranean ingredients and influences from France, Italy, Spain and Portugal appear throughout the seasonal cooking.
Brunch brings together avocado toast, eggs Benedict, cottage cheese pancakes, burrata toast and lighter salads. Later menus add handmade pasta, fish, slow-cooked meat and vegetarian dishes, with desserts completing a more leisurely dinner.
A considered wine list and bar service support the food, while a private room and set menus are available for groups. Guests with allergies, intolerances or dietary requirements should confirm current recipes and preparation practices with staff before ordering.
