What's Hot in London

Looking for the hottest restaurants in London? Here are 123 for you to try.

By DineGuides Team·Updated July 2026

Italian and Turkish are the dominant forces right now, with Middle Eastern, African, and Lebanese all holding strong. The list pulls from across the city, with specific addresses in Brick Lane, Pimlico, and Tooting Market, though most sit inside zones 2 and 3. Every restaurant here scores 90, and almost all are mid-priced. London's current momentum isn't in the expense-account rooms.

London What's Hot Cheat Sheet & Local Logistics

Which neighborhoods on this guide have the strongest cluster of what's hot spots, and how do they connect by transit?

Hawley Wharf and central London locations tend to have higher concentrations of trending venues and are well-served by Northern and Metropolitan lines respectively. Norwood is more dispersed and typically requires either a longer bus journey or overland rail from central areas, so plan transit time accordingly if combining visits across neighborhoods.

What's the tipping culture at casual dining spots versus more formal venues in London's restaurant scene?

Casual food stalls and quick-service venues often have optional tip jars or no tipping expected, while full-service restaurants typically expect 12-15% added to the bill. Card payments at counter service may prompt a tip screen, but you can decline; cash transactions at informal spots rarely include tipping.

When is the best time to visit for weekend brunch, and should I expect different crowds by season?

Weekend brunch (Saturday and Sunday 10am-1pm) draws peak crowds year-round in London, but warmer months (May-September) see outdoor seating prioritized and earlier seatings fill faster. Winter weekends offer more relaxed timing and indoor availability, though some venues reduce brunch service or hours during December-January.
