Both are managed by Director Jason Phillips who has worked at the Savoy, the Avenue and C London.

Wiltons combines a modern philosophy on service with all that is traditionally British to create the perfect dining experience. The atmosphere is perfectly matched with the immaculately prepared wild fish, shellfish, and game in season and meat dishes sourced from the finest farms.

The restaurant compromises of a bar area, a main dining room divided in 3 sections and a Private Dining room named the Jimmy Mark's Room that can also be used as additional seating for the restaurant. Wiltons is open for lunch and dinner from Monday to Friday and dinner on Saturdays. For more information, please visit our website www.wiltons.co.uk
