Boisdale of Belgravia Overview
Whisky connoisseurs, cigar aficionados and lovers of all things meat, especially if it hails from Scotland and was at one point in its life called Angus, will beam from ear to ear when first they discover Boisdale, Belgravia. Those with a strong dislike of the suchlike (invariably people of a tree-hugging, tofu extolling persuasion) should cease reading now.
Positioned on Eccleston Road, a short hop from Buckingham Palace, Boisdale has been delivering an unusual fusion of Scottish and Cuban sumptuousness since 1988 - haggis and whisky partner one of the largest cigar selections in any bar or restaurant in London, if not the world. Those seeking stats can bask in the knowledge that there are over 170 single malts and 19 brands of Cuban cigars available in over 120 sizes and a variety of vintages. Those of us lacking a 'black belt' in whisky and Havana appreciation can avail ourselves of Boisdale's insightful and approachable guide to these distractions.
The overall dining experience balances white linen formality with attentive, friendly and knowledgeable service. Towards the end of the evening you will find your meal, or drinks at the bar, accompanied by the sound of live jazz - a reason in itself to pay this venue a visit. The loyalty of Boisdale patrons is testament to the high standard of the food: a predominately Scottish menu offers an extensive array of steak and game with many of the dishes changing daily, providing an excuse to visit time and time again.
