Steeped in history, Le Beaujolais resides at an address that has managed to stay in French hands ever since the war. On the ground floor is London's oldest French wine bar whilst our downstairs restaurant is a member's only Club
Beaujolais remains a bastion of all that is French; since 1972 we have been providing a genuinely French atmosphere, caught between the vibrant quarters of Soho and Covent Garden, in what we feel is a little piece of France tucked away in the heart of London.
We are passionate about offering an authentic and rustic experience of the French terroir, from working with small suppliers in France to the traditional old fashioned recipes we use. This philosophy extends not only to our gastronomy but to the wine we stock. Our wine list celebrates French spirit; every region is unique and this is evident in the wines they produce and why it should be as varied as the food we serve.
Le Beaujolais is a piece of French history, hidden away at 25 Litchfield Street.

Great lovely decor and cosy place but APPALLING service. The whole evening experience was ruined by this older male (manager)? It was busy and I understand. We were just trying to find a place to sit down for drinks. Then, he was rude by saying “what do you want me to say”. How odd! We didn’t even say anything that might upset him. I used to work in hospitality industry and I DO understand the work can be exhausting. But, please at least show some kindness to jolly first time customer. My friend recommended this place to me several times and had high praised, so I thought give it a go this evening. Definitely not going back.
Lovely French wine bar, with a selection of decent wines by the glass. I dined by myself at the bar, which is a great place to meet people. It was packed when I walked in; the mademoiselle allowed me to stand by the bar to drink while waiting for a seat. Had a petite assiette de charcuterie to accompany my drinks. While food is not my main concern, the generous selection of 6 types of cured meats & a pate made me very happy. Drinks wise, started with a Ricard, then a glass each of muscadet sevre, Gigondas, Cahors. Enjoyed the progression between wine and the charcuterie. The eclectic decor of ties & glass mugs hung from the wooden ceiling made the place feel more fun. For me, service is good. I saw some scowls by other patrons, but it takes 2 to tango! ;) Highly recommended.
Went there on a Saturday afternoon and the places was packed, but fortunately we managed to find a spot. Despite how busy it is, people there were very friendly and attentive. Service was very fast, and the prices are reasonable considering the location. Moreover, they are quite helpful in suggesting what to drink, which is good considering that they have a decent list to choose from. We didn't try the food, but it looks good, and would love to come back again to try it. Next time I would make sure to have a reservation before going there.
Found by complete accident, but we'll glad that we did. The host was more than happy to find room for us on a busy Saturday night. A vast selection of wines from France but a little disappointed not more French beers available rather than Stella!!! Food menu upstairs was well priced and good basic bistro selection. Would love to know how to become a member to eat in the restaurant downstairs. Will definitely be back soon
They say you should never go back. Over 30 years ago, when a young graduate, Le Beaujolais used to be our regular meeting place. Today I decided to engage in nostalgia whilst in London, and we came back to find that the place has hardly changed, a small haven of France in Central London. The food was still generously portioned and great to eat, the house wine delicious and the welcome as good as we remembered. Sometimes they say you should not go back, Le Beaujolais is the place that disproves that rule.

It must be those of us who are too young to hit the hippy trail, who have a secret hankering to get away from it all in a kaftan.

An amazing location, a stand-alone three floor corner site on Cambridge Circus overlooking the iconic Palace Theatre. Inside, we have two bars spread over different floors and 20 cutting-edge craft beers on tap from ourselves and breweries

You will find The Cambridge in Cambridge Circus London within a short stroll of Charing Cross Road, Shaftesbury Avenue and Soho - however you won't find another like it.
