London’s biggest celebration of food is preparing to return to Regent’s Park this June, bringing five days of exclusive dishes, world-class chefs, and some of the capital’s most exciting restaurants together in one place. With its most ambitious line-up yet, featuring more than 30 restaurants, over 130 dishes, live-fire cooking demonstrations, chef-led masterclasses, and endless opportunities for culinary discovery, this is one stop that no food lover will want to miss.
Drawing more than 55,000 visitors each year, Taste of London is a true celebration of the city’s food scene, extending well beyond its restaurants and interactive experiences. Visitors can also explore artisan markets, cultural showcases, and the return of Uber Eats Daily Specials, which bring rotating restaurant pop-ups to the festival for limited appearances.
One of the biggest draws remains the festival’s collection of Taste Exclusive dishes, specially created for the event. Highlights include Oblix’s New York striploin with mushrooms, pearl onions, and hot bacon jam; Sexy Fish’s ancho chilli-glazed wagyu taco topped with tahoon mayonnaise and crispy shallots; Prince Arthur’s serranito pintxo with Ibérico ham; Gallio’s eight-hour braised lamb shoulder pita pocket; and Aram by Imad’s baharat chicken served over fluffy rice. Elsewhere, visitors can sample Roka’s Westholme Cross wagyu beef rump, Orion by Alex Webb’s black cod with caramelised onion purée, and Rottura’s beef fillet and dressed crab crostini.
Of course, the wider menus will be offering a selection of the restaurants’ best-selling dishes to enjoy. Ixchel will be serving duck confit sope and slow-cooked pork tacos, while Sale e Pepe will be cooking up truffle-laced risotto finished inside a Grana Padano wheel. Los Mochis will be featuring its truffle guacamole on crispy rice, alongside Rondo’s 18-hour short rib skewer. Sweet options include DakaDaka’s red wine ice cream with warm ponchiki doughnut, Big Mamma’s iconic tiramisù, Eataly’s whipped-cream-filled maritozzo, and Harry’s Dolce Vita’s Neapolitan ice cream sandwich.
Beyond the restaurants, visitors can watch leading chefs in action across the Fire Pit, BBQ Cook School, British Airways Holidays Cook School, and Taste Sessions. Newly announced names include Helen Graham, Chet Sharma, Sally Abé, Chantelle Nicholson, Martyn Odell, Melissa Thompson, DJ BBQ, and Christina Sots, while festival favourites such as Birra Moretti’s Aperitivo Hour return alongside more than 160 artisan producers showcasing everything from caviar and cider to flowers, cocktails, and speciality snacks.
New for 2026 is Taste of the City, a week-long programme of special events taking place across London between 15th and 21st June. Designed to celebrate the hospitality scene throughout the city, the series launches with Fire Feast at JOIA Rooftop in Battersea, bringing together leading chefs including Henrique Sá Pessoa, Prince Arthur’s Juan Ruiz, and Carolyn Or from Chet’s. Additional events will be announced throughout the lead-up to the festival, creating even more opportunities for food lovers to experience the best of London’s restaurant scene.
