The Ivy St John’s Wood is a neighbourhood restaurant on St John’s Wood High Street, serving guests from breakfast until late in the evening. Its polished dining room brings The Ivy Collection’s familiar style to north west London and welcomes everything from morning coffee to dinner and drinks.
Breakfast and brunch include eggs, smoked salmon, omelettes and other morning favourites, while afternoon tea creates a more leisurely reason to visit. A children’s menu and dedicated vegetarian and vegan choices help the restaurant accommodate families and mixed groups throughout the day.
The main menu combines established Ivy dishes with seasonal additions. Crispy duck salad, salt and pepper squid and twice baked cheese soufflé can be followed by shepherd’s pie, chicken Milanese, fish and chips, salmon, curry, burgers or steaks from the grill.
Wine, cocktails and alcohol free drinks support both casual visits and celebrations. Group menus and the private Abbey Room provide options for larger occasions, while weekend brunch, Sunday dining and changing set menus give regular guests different ways to experience the restaurant across the week.
Address: 120 St John’s Wood High Street, St John’s Wood, London NW8 7SG, United Kingdom
