La Poule Au Pot is a longstanding French restaurant at 231 Ebury Street in Belgravia. Its rustic dining room, candlelit atmosphere and enduring menu have made it a distinctive neighbourhood institution for decades, offering the warmth and generous flavours of a traditional country bistro in central London.
Classic starters can include gratinated onion soup, fish soup, escargots and scallops, alongside asparagus with melted butter or hollandaise sauce. Crab salad and smoked salmon filled with crab bring a lighter seafood character, while pâté and other familiar French preparations set the tone for a leisurely meal.
The house dish is chicken cooked gently in a pot with vegetables and broth. Rabbit with mustard sauce, coq au vin, beef bourguignon and cassoulet continue the focus on slow cooked French comfort food, while Dover sole and sea bass provide alternatives for diners who prefer simply prepared fish.
Green beans, gratin dauphinois, new potatoes and Vichy carrots accompany the main courses in classic style. Tarte Tatin, chocolate mousse and crème brûlée bring familiar textures and flavours to dessert, while the French wine selection and intimate surroundings encourage diners to settle in rather than rush the experience.
