Claro

Claro brings vibrant Eastern Mediterranean cooking to the heart of St James’s, pairing bold Mediterranean flavours with the elegance of one of London’s most historic neighbourhoods.

The restaurant occupies a dramatic former banking hall on Waterloo Place, where soaring ceilings and ornate architectural details meet contemporary finishes to create a dining room of understated modern glamour.

At its centre sits a fully open kitchen, where the team prepares ingredient-led dishes designed for sharing. The menu celebrates the generosity of Mediterranean dining, shaped by Middle Eastern influences and the best seasonal British produce.

Signature plates include the Taste of Claro mezze — warm frena bread served with green tahini, aubergine, labneh, pickles and house-made condiments — alongside vibrant vegetables, fresh seafood and carefully sourced meats from the grill.

Energetic yet elegant, Claro brings the warmth and conviviality of the Mediterranean table to one of London’s most distinguished addresses.
