Bold, Bustling, and Full of Flair at Balthazar

Located in the heart of Covent Garden, Balthazar brings the buzz of a New York brasserie to London with all the charm of Parisian café culture. Open from mid-morning until late, Balthazar is always alive with energy, serving crowd-pleasing French classics and comforting weekend brunches.

With over 200 seats, a vibrant bar, and an inviting private dining room, Balthazar attracts a wonderfully eclectic crowd from West End performers and tourists to loyal Londoners who know exactly what they love.

To work at Balthazar is to embrace pace, personality, and professionalism. It’s a place for people who thrive in a lively atmosphere, who bring flair to service, and who love being part of a team that makes every guest feel at home.

Carmen Vidroi – General Manager

“Balthazar is a love letter to the buzz of New York and the elegance of Paris, right in the heart of Covent Garden. Our team thrives on pace, personality, and a deep passion for classic brasserie service. We’re a family here – proud, loyal, and dedicated to delivering timeless hospitality. Fun fact: Balthazar London was modelled after its legendary namesake in Manhattan’s SoHo, bringing that same glamour and charm across the pond. If you love a fast-paced, dynamic floor and great people, this is the place for you.”
