We booked a table for 6pm knowing that we weren't going to be eating until nearer 7pm. The staff were really relaxed and helpful and our table waitress (a delightful Polish lady called [@]) simply couldn't be bettered. Will definitely go again.

Underneath Charing Cross Station, Champagne Charlies is a Davy's traditional ale and port house, featuring an expansive cellar of Davy’s own label house wines and champagne. Cosy and rustic, Champagne Charlies Charing Cross features sawdust covered floors, candlelit tables and intimate alcoves.

In true Olde Worlde style, Davy's Old Wallop real ale is served in pewter tankards or copper jugs. Decanted daily, vintage ports are available by the glass or bottle. The Champagne Charlies dining room serves up hearty British fare and chargrilled dishes, and there is a relaxed bar menu with hot or cold dishes available throughout the day.

Traditional favourites on the Champagne Charlies menu include Gressingham duck breast with creamed leeks, bangers and mash with red wine gravy or poached salmon with hollandaise sauce and minted greens. British artisan cheeses accompany English puddings like treacle tart and custard.

Just off Villiers Street, Champagne Charlies London is found in The Arches shopping centre, near Trafalgar Square.

Comments about this restaurant :

I thought that the food was slightly overpriced, although my partner disagreed. It WAS delicious though, even if the service was slightly rushed.

Their facilities were clean and the evening was very nice.

Service was friendly and efficient. Tables were far enough apart that you didn't hear other conversations. There were sectioned areas where you could dine more quietly. Lovely atmosphere. Food was delicious!! Would definately visit again.

We were entertaining two very special friends from overseas for dinner at 8pm. Even though we didn't specifically request it when we booked we were provided with an intimate private room for the four of us.

Comments about this restaurant :

Very pleasant staff and attentive service without being too "in your face"
Service timing juts right - not too slow, not too fast. In and out in just over an hour which suited us well.
