Escoffier Exclusive Room Hire


Thank you for enquiring about the exclusive use of the Escoffier Restaurant for your event.

The Escoffier Restaurant is situated in the heart of Victoria in the leafy area of Vincent Square. The Escoffier is in the oldest part of the College building and boasts of having the oldest culinary school in the country since 1910. From an idea by Auguste Escoffier, Cesar Ritz (Ritz Dynasty), pitched their idea to Baroness Coutts. So impressed was Baroness Coutts that she gave them a generous donation of land where the dream was realised, and the school was built.

The Escoffier is only available to rent for dinner on any Tuesday or Wednesday during term time.

The maximum guests is 30 and the room is set up of five tables of six. The menu will be made up from the current theme and will consist of a welcoming glass of a sparkling or soft drink and a canape reception in our adjacent bar area.
