Apricity Sustainable Restaurant
Mayfair’s Apricity is a zero-waste restaurant that uses sustainable produce from small-scale farmers alongside locally foraged ingredients. Choose from a range of menus, including a tasting menu celebrating British vegetables, and another featuring regeneratively farmed meat and sustainably caught fish from the British Isles. The restaurant even offers a Culinary Kids tasting menu to help children learn more about seasonality and where food comes from. The drinks menu includes low-waste cocktails and an extensive list of low intervention wines sourced from growers that care about soil and biodiversity while championing English vineyards and winemakers. Even the restaurant’s interiors were created sustainably by designing everything so it can be taken apart, re-used, donated and recycled at the end of its life.
