Kettners
Kettners boasts as opulent an interior as you’d expect from somewhere founded by the former chef to Emperor Napoleon III. Seating comes in the form of leather sofas spread across three rooms, the walls of which are hung with a mix of po-faced portraits and eccentric architectural sketches in heavy gilt frames. Black-shirted staff reverently scoop ice into silver buckets behind the bar, which is home to as comprehensive a selection of champagnes as you could hope to find: the menu lists them alphabetically over three pages, from £21 to £1,250 per bottle. Mark-ups are commendably low. A glass of house champagne is £8.25, and there are also a few wines, whiskies, brandies and champagne cocktails. Kettners is part of the Pizza Express chain, so pizzas, pasta, burgers and salads are available to soak up the bubbly.
