Hovarda London

Hovarda sits on Rupert Street, a five-minute walk from the bright lights of Piccadilly Circus. The room runs smart, focusing its energy on Mediterranean and Greek seafood.

While the surrounding area is often defined by fast-paced tourist haunts and aggressive turnover, Hovarda is designed for those who intend to linger. It succeeds because it rejects the utilitarian nature of its Soho neighbours. Most venues here rely on the constant stream of passing foot traffic, but this kitchen commits to a slower, more deliberate pace. It is the better choice when you prefer the food to be the reason for your evening rather than the proximity to a tube station.
