Tucked into a backwaterish street off the top end of the Fulham Road, Le Colombier would seem even more at home on the side street of a French provincial harbour town. Both the large, awning-covered terrace and the cosy upstairs dining room are popular with the loyal, 'very Chelsea' crowd. The menu could hardly be more authentically French, offering delicious brasserie style food. Particular favourites include tranche de foie gras to start, or the oysters, especially the Bretonne. Mains include Coquilles St Jacques, scallops with wild mushrooms, and rabbit with cider sauce and fresh pasta. Sharp, professional French service. Probably not the first choice for francophobe vegetarians, Le Colombier is a firm favourite with discerning locals.

Critic's Review

This converted pub has a terrace for dining al fresco, and it certainly charms the locals. The food is French - exceedingly French: you'll find old favourites like oeufs en meurette and escargots. Service is Gallic. prices are unaggressive. - © Evening Standard 2003 / Charles Campion
