Paris Grill is a long established City restaurant at 37 Crutched Friars, serving London diners since 1978. Its traditional hospitality and weekday schedule make it particularly suited to business lunches, relaxed meetings and an unhurried afternoon meal.
The menu emphasises hearty dishes prepared with care rather than overly elaborate presentation. Steak tartare remains an important house tradition and is prepared at the table, bringing a touch of classic restaurant theatre to the dining room.
The famous Paris Grill steak sandwich anchors the more informal bar food selection. Other substantial plates and changing specials allow diners to choose between a quick lunch and a fuller meal, with portions and flavours shaped around the expectations of a busy City audience.
Bardot’s Bar supports the restaurant with wine, beer and spirits, and the premises also hosts selected evening events. Private hire outside regular weekday hours extends the venue’s role from a lunchtime institution to a setting for celebrations and corporate gatherings.
Address: 37 Crutched Friars, London EC3N 2AE, England
