The Montague on The Gardens Hotel

Live Jazz in The Leopard Bar and 2 other offers

From 6th of January to 31st of March 2025, you can head to The Montague on The Gardens hotel's winter lodge for an alpine pop-up complete with oozing fondue. Dig into the likes of gruyère and vacherin cheese, dipping crusty bread, new potatoes, pretzels, fillet beef, bratwursts and more into the vat of gooey goodness. 

It starts at £25 per person for this authentic experience of Swiss fondue in London, which you can enjoy alongside the fur throws, twinkling lights, trees and roaring fire here.

The Brush

The terrace at The Brush brings a touch of European café culture to Hoxton, complete with heaters and cosy blankets for a warm and inviting atmosphere. This winter, the exclusive terrace menu takes inspiration from Alpine cuisine, featuring comforting dishes like raclette on toast - Cumbria air-dried ham, plum tomato, and pickled cucumber on rosemary focaccia, and cheese fondue with a rich blend of cheddar, comté, and emmental, served with radishes, heritage carrots, croûtes, and charred rib-eye.

Finish with a decadent chocolate fondue, where you can dip homemade waffles and fresh fruit into indulgent hot Valrhona 55 chocolate. Pair your meal with one of their warming cocktails, like the hazelnut-infused Hazel-Nog, the spiced whisky-based Spiced Toddy, or a classic mulled wine, all crafted with The Brush's signature house spice blend.

Vagabond - Various Sites

Stylish wine bars that have been in London since 2010, Vagabond have got sites in Victoria, Paddington, Battersea and beyond. These sleek spots are a great choice for top-quality vino, but they're also serving up delicious fondue sharers this winter.

For £20 per person, you can indulge in a sumptuous blend of Swiss cheeses, served with toasted baguettes, potatoes and pickles. You can add on extras like pigs in blankets or roasted mushrooms, as well as prosecco and sparkling wine.

Bottomless Fondue Brunch

@ Munich Cricket Club Victoria on Every Saturday

Found at their Victoria, Canary Wharf and Tower Hill locations, Munich Cricket Club has an affordable pick for bottomless cheese fondue in London. Expect molten cheese alongside the likes of cured meats, grilled seasonal vegetables, potatoes, bread and cornichons for dunking, plus unlimited drinks like mimosas, beer and spritzes, for just £35 per person.

Après ski tunes will be setting the tone at this venue with a mix of alpine and Bavarian influences.

The Perception at W London

Afternoon Tea with with a glass of Coolhurst English Sparkling Wine - £67.50 and 3 other offers

When it comes to finding chocolate fondue in London, the W London is the hotel to head to. Bringing a slice of the Swiss Alps to Leicester Square, they've got a pop-up Veuve Clicquot Après Lodge complete with a campfire, skis for decoration and fur blankets. 

The chocolate fondue is £28 to share between two, complete with molten Belgian hot chocolate accompanied by strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and marshmallows.

The White Haus, Farringdon

After a London menu with fondue? Then check out The White Haus in Farringdon. This slice of the après ski life is decked out with cabin-look walls, tartan cushions, fires and even seating in a converted ski lift gondola for the ultimate mountain vibes.

There's nutty Emmental, creamy Vacherin, plenty of Gruyère and even Cheddar too in their vats of cheese, with the likes of antipasti, pickled onion, bread and potatoes for dipping.

Boundary London

One of the coolest rooftops has also garnered a reputation for its dairy delights. Head to The Boundary in Shoreditch across the chillier months for a night of expertly paired bevvies and melted Savoyard cheese with croutons and cornichons for £26 per person.

Add charcuterie selection for a further tenner, before indulging further in a chocolate log for dessert.

The Cheese Bar

An entire bar dedicated to dairy (and one with its own cheese conveyor belt at that) is a pretty good place to start when seeking out the best fondue in London. Located in Camden Market, The Cheese Bar champions British cheese and serves up the melted stuff on Thursday evenings from November to March. Not only that, but their sister Cheese Barge in Paddington has the same offering.

Le Bab Covent Garden

Thought that Le Bab was just one for hummus and shawarma? That is true, since it's been a staple for a modern take on gourmet kebabs since opening as 'Maison Bab' in 2018. But think again, as this Covent Garden favourite is also one to add to your cheese radar.

Go for the the charcoal grilled sirloin steak kebab with picked veggies, chilli sauce and crispy onions or the Ras El Hanout-spiced lamb kebab, glazed in lamb jus and served alongside chimichurri, sweet chilli sauce and double cooked fries - both come with a helping of the restaurant's signature fondue sauce. You can even add fondue to your fries as well.

Champagne + Fromage

As the name would suggest, Champagne + Fromage is a top spot for gorgeous gooey cheese dipping and plenty of bubbles. Found in Covent Garden, Greenwich Market and as French bistro Cheese + Fizz in Brixton, their Champagne-filled Mont D'Or is baked with garlic for the ultimate flavour profile. For dunking? Saucisson, bread and potatoes.

La Fromagerie Bloomsbury

If you consider yourself a bit of a cheese connoisseur, chances are La Fromagerie is already on your radar. Check out the Bloomsbury outpost for a shop dedicated to the stuff, alongside dairy dedicated masterclasses and one hell of a fondue in the upstairs restaurant.

The vats here are a mix of Beaufort Chalet d'Alpage, Emmental Francaise Grand Cru and Comte D'Estive for classic alpine flavours. This is served alongside baguette and cornichons at the standard £22.50 price, plus you can add on charcuterie and steamed potatoes too.
