The Bleeding Heart Restaurants

Bleeding Heart’s long-established and extremely popular French Restaurants, The Bistro and Tavern & Bar and their four Private Dining Rooms offer superb food in highly atmospheric historical surroundings, just two minutes from the Elizabeth Line’s Farringdon Hub in the centre of London.

Described by City AM as “the best French Bistro in London” , the Bleeding Heart is still privately-owned and operated by its founders, Robert and Robyn Wilson, who established it in 1983.

Bistro
A cozy restaurant corner with a wooden table set with food and drinks, surrounded by wooden chairs, near a large window with handwritten decorative gold script on it, letting in natural light.
A long rectangular dining table set for a formal dinner in an elegant room with pink and black floral wallpaper and framed mirror on the wall. The table has white tablecloth, glassware, plates, silverware, napkins, and small red candle holders.
