Le Caprice was a restaurant in London's St James's area famous for being frequented by celebrities.[1] It was originally opened by Mario Gallati in 1947 at 20 Arlington St.[2][3] Famous patrons included Elizabeth Taylor, Mick Jagger, Madonna, Kate Moss and Diana, Princess of Wales.[4][5]

It was later run by Jeremy King and his then business partner Chris Corbin.[6][7][4]

The business closed during the COVID-19 pandemic, and did not subsequently reopen.

Arlington

In March 2024 a new restaurant opened on the old site of Le Caprice called Arlington under the helm of Jeremy King.[5][8][9][10][11][10] It has been described as an 'unabashedly sentimental remastering of Le Caprice' with a similar menu and interior.[12] It launched on 11 March 2024, following a soft opening during the week prior.[13][14]

Giles Coren, writing in The Times, described the food as 'sort of stuff that you really can eat every day'.[15] William Sitwell, writing in The Daily Telegraph, described the restaurant as a 'favourite for London’s media elite'.[16] Tanya Gold, writing in The Spectator, said that the food was 'five stars, no notes'.[17]
