Top 5 Wine Bars in London

Relax and unwind from the bustling city with a glass of wine at one of our top 5 wine bars.

Le Beaujolais

At the very top of our list is an established wine bar and restaurant, famous for its selection of French wines and cheeses. The exclusively French wine list is broken down by region. As many as nineteen are available by the glass with a further seven available by the half-bottle.

We found it tantalizingly difficult to choose from the 20 and 30 varieties of French cheeses on offer, which are bought in direct from France each week.
