(531)

Franco’s has been serving the community and visitors to St James’s from early morning to late at night, for over 60 years. Situated at the St James’s end of Jermyn Street, Franco’s is surrounded by the many lifestyle boutiques, private clubs, art galleries and hotels of the area. Open all day, the personality of the restaurant evolves from a quietly and gently efficient breakfast venue to a sharp

and charged lunch atmosphere, to elegance and romance in the evening. The lunch and dinner menus highlight carefully prepared traditional and more modern Italian dishes and the relaxed and friendly service ensures there is always somebody to greet you with a smile.

Paccheri with seabass, Taggiasche olives and lemon.

Moving into summer our menu increasingly reflects Italian coastal traditions. This dish is built on the contrast between the sweet, delicate fish, the briny depth of Ligurian olives, and a lift of citrus.

This week as Chelsea Flower Show returns and the sun is set to shine on St James’s, join us on the terrace at Franco’s.

Whether you’re heading west or returning from the gardens, we’ll be serving two special edition creations inspired by one of London’s most spectacular displays.

ZEST, a bright, citrus-led cocktail with limoncello, homemade citrus vodka, mint and lemon foam.

Alongside a delicate dessert of yogurt mousse, mixed berries, crumble and raspberry foam.

“Franco’s on Jermyn Street remains one of those quintessentially London institutions that feels as essential to the fabric of St James’s as a well-cut shirt from Turnbull & Asser or a quiet stroll through the arcade.”

Celebrate World Cocktail Day with a Spritz on the terrace at Franco’s.

Our summer menu features an array of refreshing Spritzes from the martini-inspired Rosemary & Olive to sweeter seasonal serves with strawberry and citrus notes.

Cheers.

Roasted lamb cutlet with spring vegetables and Sardinian artichokes.

Carciofi Sardi are a seasonal standout, prized for their slightly nutty flavour, delicate bitterness and tender texture.

Paired with roasted lamb, it’s an elegant dish rooted in Italian regional cooking.

Thank you to Broadsheet London and chef Mario Carbone for their recent mention of Franco’s.

Italian asparagus, served simply with fresh goat’s cheese and candied walnuts, a nod to the Mediterranean habit of balancing young spring vegetables with the richness of creamy cheese.

Softening the return to work tomorrow or extending your long weekend, our pancakes with blueberries or banana or bacon (all served with maple syrup) are a delicious start to the day.
