We begin our journey to discover the most affordable Michelin restaurants in London. A special place, because this open, energetic, and cosmopolitan city has been attracting young chefs from all corners of the globe for decades. And it is here, in the home of pie and mash and fish and chips, that legendary restaurants were born, offering the finest cuisine from faraway countries and continents.

Of the more than 360 restaurants included in the Michelin Guide, there are indeed gems from every corner of the globe. You can truly explore the best of Indian, Italian, Taiwanese, and many other cuisines. London is perhaps the city with the richest variety of high-end restaurants in the world, and this is hardly surprising given that a large proportion of global financial trade is concentrated in the City.
