The story
The Montagu Kitchen in London centres its modern British menu around the Josper Grill. Chefs prepare bold yet simple dishes over live flame to capture sun-kissed tastes from coastal Europe. Shared plates arrive quickly, encouraging guests to linger over the table. A carefully curated wine selection mirrors the relaxed rhythm of southern Europe, pairing easily with smoky grilled proteins and seasonal vegetables throughout the week.
The dining room sits inside the Hyatt Regency London – The Churchill near Portman Square. Large windows bring natural light into a space designed for unhurried conversations between lunch and late evening service. Tables are set with straightforward ceramics and crisp linens, keeping the focus squarely on the food. Guests frequently book the adjacent private dining areas for corporate gatherings or celebrate seasonal weekends with outdoor picnics.
The kitchen earned a 2 Rosette award for culinary excellence, recognising a consistent standard across every dinner and brunch service. Staff guide diners through the menu without pressure, allowing the open-fire technique to speak for itself. This straightforward approach to contemporary British cooking removes pretence while keeping premium ingredients central. Every plate arrives hot from the grill, ready to be broken apart and shared among friends.
