The 15 best-value restaurants in London, according to the Michelin Guide

The latest Michelin Guide was released in October.

While eight London restaurants won Michelin stars this year, far more were awarded the “Bib Gourmand,” which is given to restaurants that have excellent value for money.

A typical three-course meal with wine at a Bib Gourmand restaurant costs around £60, and according to the Michelin Guide, 15 places in the capital have the “good quality, good value cooking” required to make the list.

From fresh pasta in Southwark to pub grub in Bethnal Green, here are the best-value restaurants in London.

Located in a former garage space, Primeur is the best-value restaurant in Canonbury. The menu changes daily, but dishes like this ice cream with almond brittle, caramel sauce and sugared almonds usually cost around £6 while mains are rarely over £9.

Upstairs, the affordable sister restaurant to Trinity in Clapham, offers good value modern European cuisine. The selection of small plates on offer are designed to share, like this salmon and creme fraiche dish which costs £8.

The Micheiln Guide’s editors were impressed by The Barbary in Bloomsbury’s reasonably-priced North African dishes. This roasted Aubergine main course costs just £7.50.

Charlotte’s Place in Ealing serves upscale European food like this delicious arancini starter, but keeps its prices low. The dinner menu has a set price of £36 for three courses, but this comes down to £30 at the weekend.

Legs, which opened in May 2016, is a tiny restaurant and wine bar in Hackney's fashion district that has already won acclaim in the Michelin Guide. It serves a variety of sharing dishes including smoked salmon and prawns. The average cost of a meal for one is a comfortable £15.

The Marksman serves classic British food in an old Victorian pub in Bethnal Green. While some dishes are traditional, others are more experimental like this starter of a fresh bread bun stuffed with beef costing £5.

Bellanger in Islington specialises in classic French dishes like snails in garlic butter which costs £8.95 for six, and £17.95 for 12. The restaurant also welcomes dogs, so it's great for pet owners.

Paradise Garage in Bethnal Green specialises in seasonal ingredients and picnic food. Individual main courses cost up to £19.50, but this platter of rabbit — which can be shared between four — is a bargain at £48 for the whole table.

The chefs at Padella, Southwark, make their pasta fresh every morning, so it's no wonder people queue up out of the door every day to eat here. The food is more than reasonable, with main courses starting at just £5.

Gunpowder in Spitalfields serves up Indian food with a modern twist, like this spiced venison doughnut with fennel and chili chutney priced at £4.50.

The Newman Arms close to Regent's Park is one of London's best-known pubs. It recently changed hands in 2015, but the pies served with Liquor — a classic London condiment — are still one of the most popular items on the menu at an affordable £9.
