64 Goodge Street is a new restaurant from Woodhead Restaurant Group, which opened in early August 2023. A former travel agent in our beloved Fitzrovia (64’s older siblings Portland and Clipstone are just round the corner), we were hugely excited by the opportunity this blank slate of a site afforded us.We’ve been able to build from the bottom up, and therefore design every inch of space to meet our hope for 64 Goodge Street. Namely, that it is a space in which guests feel utterly taken care of. We are open Monday to Saturday for lunch and dinner. We very much hope to see you soon.

Must be one top Restaurants in the world. Have been to Michelin stars all over Europe and USA and this stood out above just about all. The service is elegant and efficient, the room is cozy and beautiful, wine list excellent. Food is gorgeous but tastes excellent as well, then buerre blanc on the potato dish, is the best sauce I’ve ever had, magical.

Our meal was absolutely delicious. We had a wonderful terrine followed by excellent perfectly cooked cod and then a wonderful passionfruit soufflé. They recommended a very good bottle of wine that went very with the meal. The bill was very reasonable, but was a bargain in view of the quality of our meal.
