Abel Giandellini opened the iconic Ivy in 1917 as a small, unlicensed Italian cafe on the edge of Soho and London’s West End. Situated near Cambridge Circus, its close proximity to the theater district and renowned exclusivity quickly made The Ivy a favorite amongst theatergoers, actors, celebrities and other notables in the arts and media. British cuisine is served in an intimate Art Deco oasis, embellished with its trademark harlequin stained glass windows and circular bar. The Ivy is a true London tradition and remains one of the most beloved restaurants in the city. Even today, diners and visitors relish the fin-de-siècle Britishness, impeccable service and unmatched atmosphere of which makes The Ivy the perfect place to enjoy timeless London.
