As the leaves turn, so do our kitchens.
Across all three Galvin restaurants, Chef Director Arturo Granato and his team are already at work - sourcing the season's best from the market and reshaping our menus around it, swapping summer's lightness for the warmth, spice and comfort of autumn. It's the same care and craft that's always defined Galvin, just dressed for the colder months.
A new reason to dine at Galvin is coming...
Seasonal plates, great value, and the perfect excuse to gather around the table before Christmas takes over. Warmer service, cosier rooms, and a menu built for lingering - from our family to yours.
Three venues. Three Autumn Tables. Landing 19th September.
📍 Galvin La Chapelle · Galvin Bistrot & Bar · Galvin Green Man

What people say
French restaurants are known for their exquisite cuisine, elegant ambiance, and impeccable service. Galvin La Chapelle in Spital Square, London is no exception. This One Michelin Star French restaurant by Chris and Jeff Galvin is housed in the former church hall of St Botolph's in Spitalfields, adding to its unique charm.
The history of the building itself is fascinating, having served as a parish hall and gymnasium before being saved from demolition by local residents. The complete refurbishment that followed has resulted in a stunning space with limestone plaster walls, refurbished ceilings, and granite pillars that add to the grandeur of the dining experience.
But it's not just the ambiance that sets Galvin La Chapelle apart. The menu is a celebration of French cuisine with modern European influences. From classic dishes like escargots de Bourgogne to innovative creations like roasted quail with foie gras and truffle sauce, every dish is expertly prepared and beautifully presented.
The service at Galvin La Chapelle is also exceptional. The staff are knowledgeable about the menu and wine list, making recommendations based on personal preferences and ensuring that every guest feels well taken care of.
Overall, Galvin La Chapelle offers a truly memorable dining experience that combines history, elegance, and exceptional cuisine. It's no wonder this French restaurant has earned its One Michelin Star status.
