Wright Brothers South Kensington is a seafood restaurant at 56 Old Brompton Road. The Parisian bistro style room brings a relaxed Francophile character to the neighbourhood, while the kitchen works with shellfish, oysters and fresh catches landed by Brixham day boats.
Oysters are a defining part of the experience, served individually or incorporated into broader shellfish platters for sharing. The menu also makes space for prawns, crab, mussels and changing fish dishes, giving diners the choice of a quick plate at the bar or a more complete seafood meal.
Bistro influences appear in the cooked dishes, where classic combinations such as bavette can sit alongside the day’s catch. Preparation is generally direct enough to let the quality of the seafood lead, with seasonal garnishes and sauces adding variety as availability changes.
The Mermaid, an Art Deco basement bar beneath the restaurant, serves martinis, cocktails, oysters and seafood snacks, and can accommodate small group dining. Because shellfish and other allergens are central to the kitchen, guests with allergies or dietary requirements should discuss the current menu and preparation with staff before ordering.
