The Wolseley City is the Square Mile sister restaurant to The Wolseley on Piccadilly. It occupies a restored landmark building from the 1920s on King William Street, close to Monument station and the historic banking and commercial streets of the City.
The restaurant follows the tradition of a grand European cafe with a British influence. Service begins with breakfast and continues through lunch, afternoon tea and dinner, allowing the dining room and cafe bar to change naturally with the pace of the working day.
Wolseley classics sit beside British heritage favourites and dishes created specifically for the City location. Pastries, cooked breakfasts, seafood, meat dishes and desserts support different occasions, while afternoon tea brings together sandwiches, cakes, scones and tea.
Egyptian motifs, a monochrome palette and detailed architectural features distinguish the interior from the Piccadilly restaurant. Two private dining rooms can be used separately or combined for up to twenty four guests, accommodating breakfasts, meetings, lunches and celebrations.
Address: 68 King William Street, City of London EC4N 7HR, United Kingdom
