about the venue
  • Treading a fine line between being 'upmarket' and just plain 'snobbish', at first glance Christopher's impresses with its Covent Garden location in a fashionable corner Regency building. There's a touch of The Ivy about the place, but a noticeable absence of celeb diners. There's no doubting, however, the quality of the food, which is described as 'New England' - whatever that is. Steaks are top notch, as is the celebrated Eggs Benedict. Apparently absolutely the place to be seen for a fashionably late brunch, Christopher's somehow falls short of real star quality. With a drinking hole as part of the establishment uninspiringly called the Martini Bar, it looks more the sort of place where George Lazenby would hang out than Daniel Craig.

    Just eaten there again - previous misgivings confirmed. Christophers is on the slide...
