Balthazar is a French brasserie in Covent Garden’s historic Flower Cellars building. The restaurant brings the atmosphere of a traditional Parisian dining room to Russell Street, a short walk from the piazza, the Royal Opera House and the surrounding theatres.

The kitchen serves classic French brasserie and bistro cooking in an informal setting. Its selection draws on familiar French dishes and seafood, presenting food suited to anything from a leisurely lunch to dinner before an evening performance.

Balthazar offers a set menu during selected weekday and Sunday hours, while weekend brunch provides a separate reason to visit on Saturdays and Sundays. A substantial wine selection supports the restaurant’s French character and complements the range of dishes.

The main dining room combines elegant detailing with a lively brasserie atmosphere. Two private dining rooms are also available for celebrations, receptions, business lunches and other gatherings requiring a more intimate space.

Address: 4–6 Russell Street, Covent Garden, London WC2B 5HZ, United Kingdom
