Step away from the vibrant colours of Soho and into Antidote Wine Bar. This charming two floor wine bar and restaurant is perfect for a relaxed dinner with friends or for sharing a charcuterie board and bottle of wine with a date.

The wine list offers a vast selection of biodynamic and organic vintages, largely from France. The bar staff are friendly and happy to offer an in-depth back story on the region and producer as well as selecting the perfect tipple for you. The set lunch menu is a popular choice, offering two or three course meals, starting at just £19. If you're looking for something a little more filling then visit for a delectable four course dinner, with or without pairing wine. The first floor restaurant has been completely refurbished and with banquette seating, mirrored walls and low lighting, it is now a much more comfortable, luxurious and intimate space for lunch or dinner.

Expect to find fans of French bistros as well as French speaking patrons; the perfect antidote for those looking to escape London for an evening.
