Perched on the 28th floor of the Hilton London, Galvin at Windows offers a dining experience that combines breathtaking panoramic views of the city with exquisite French cuisine. This upscale restaurant is renowned for its sophisticated ambiance, impeccable service, and culinary artistry that delights both locals and visitors seeking a memorable gastronomic journey.

Two standout dishes include the delicately crafted ravioli, bursting with flavors and presented with an artistic foam and soup exterior, and the pan-fried sea bream, featuring tender, crispy-skinned fillets sitting atop a bed of fresh beans. The restaurant's wine list complements these dishes perfectly, with selections that enhance the rich flavors and elevate the dining experience.

Galvin at Windows was once a humble rooftop restaurant before transforming into a culinary icon, renowned for its innovative approach to French cuisine fused with local British ingredients. A fun fact: the restaurant’s panoramic windows were designed to maximize the breathtaking views of London, making every meal a visual feast as well as a gastronomic one.

What makes Galvin at Windows a must-visit restaurant in London?

 Its stunning panoramic views of London combined with innovative French cuisine and exceptional service create an unforgettable dining experience.

 For the exceptional views, refined French dishes, and the chance to experience London from above in a luxurious setting, Galvin at Windows offers a truly elevated dining experience.

 The ravioli with its rich flavors and artistic presentation, and the pan-fried sea bream with crispy skin and tender meat are highly recommended for a taste of the chef's mastery.

Fantastic food. Fantastic service. Fantastic view. 

An outstanding dining experience!

This is a great spot for cocktails and views of the city. Upscale and elevated indoor rooftop bar. Go for pre-dinner drinks. I feel like the sunset would be perfect here on a sunny day. Take in London from above here.

Really nice atmosphere and pretty good food. Galvin at the windows is on the 28th floor of the Hilton in London. It has a nice view of the city if you get a chance to sit by the windows. They knew we were tourists so even gave us free postcards to write that they would then mail out anywhere in the world for free. 

For appetizer we got the ravioli which was delicious! Not quite sure what's in it but the whole construction of the dish, including the foam and soup outside of the ravioli, was good. 

For our main we ordered the pan fried sea bream (fish). The meat was tender and the skin was crispy. Other than that, it didn't necessarily make a lasting impression. It was sitting on a bed of beans and I personally don't like beans so I left that alone. 

For dessert we got the almond biscuit with berries and clotted cream ice cream. It was pretty good and a well balanced dish in terms of textures!

I had a great experience at Galvin at window with wonderful sunset view over hyde park. I went for their London restaurant festival menu - 3 courses for £35 and a cocktail on arrival. 

Although the cocktail was a bit too sweet to my liking (the waiter did offer to make a new one for me later in the evening seeing that the glass didn't go down much, which I have to complement on), the food was absolutely spot on. I had octopus starter, white fish main and a pear dessert. I enjoyed them all very much. With a bottle of white, olives, bread and service charge, the bill came to £75 per person - it is a bit of increase from the £35 for 3 courses but I think once in a while is worth it. 

I do have to say their service was wonderful, u also get a complementary postcard and once u fill it in, the restaurant post it for u! All in all, I was completely sold and will definitely go back again.

Loved our experience here, great view and excellent staff. We both did the featured taster menu and were pretty happy with it. Although we thought they over did the soy sauce in one too many dishes - would have been nice to have a little less dominating flavor. Still, the staff was kind and helpful, they customized my menu to meet my dietary needs (I'm pregnant, so I couldn't do anything undercooked or raw). 

The only reason I took off a star is because the tables are setup with one person having their back to the view. I would have liked to both enjoy the backdrop of the city together.

After having a wonderful dinner at Galvin La Chapelle, I was very curious to go to Galvin at Windows. ( La Chapelle is typical European food when at Windows is Korean fusion food)

We went there with my family for my birthday and we were not disappointed at all!
First the view! Wherever you are sitted in the room, you have a wonderful view of London.
The service was amazing! Everybody was smilling, careful of our needs and looking to make our experience at Galvin perfect.
This restaurant is pricy ( was decorated by Michelin guide...) but the food quality worth it. I ordered as a starter the cured salmon, then as a main the baked hake served with spicy cabbage and finally the pear souffle.
It was gorgeous! Full of flavor and interesting mix. 
I also received a small cake for my birthday which was very thoughtful.

I totally recommend this restuarant for a celebration meal to enjoy delicious food and a perfect view of London.

We saw an Amazon coupon deal for 98£ for two and decided to give this place a try.
Located on the 28th floor of the Hilton Park Lane, the views of the surrounding area are breathtaking. Unfortunately, we could not see much from our table but the ambiance was nice anyway. 

Overall service was good but when delivering dishes, sometimes they announced what the dish was and what was included and other times they did not. The amuse bouche was a not creative.  From what I can remember it was some bread sticks and olives. The red mullet lacked flavor an was a bit cold. I am not sure if our experience would have been different had we not used the Amazon deal but the food was just okay for me.

Galvin is the roof bar & restaurant on the 28th floor of the Hilton Park Lane.  If this was NYC or Hong Kong, this bar would look at the side of another building, but being that it is London, you can practically see Iceland.  The view of the surrounding area is fantastic.   My visits were to the bar only.  Most of the seating looks to the west out over Hyde Park and if the sun is out, the sunset.  I think the better view is to the east, where you can see the emerging London skyline, including the Shard tower.  

The music was kind of loungey, downtempo electronic and the décor was modern, but comfy.  The service was very good.  My drinks came quickly and were well made.  The only beef I have is that the drinks were very pricey.  I ordered 2 cocktails and the total was around £45. Yikes.  Also, the crowd was mainly hotel guests and couples having a "romantic night on the town".  Definitely not a happening, go-to hot spot, but it was a fun place for a few drinks.
Great place to come after work and have a drink while watching the sun set over London.

Amazing view of the city! Food was great definitely an expensive night. I saw some say portions were small but I didn't feel that way at all as the food was so rich I did not finish my plate. The presentation do everything was wonderful

Lovely restaurant located on the 28th floor within Hilton London hotel. Seems to be a restaurant where people bring their business partners for lunch, there were a few tables of men in suits, ties and brief cases  

Staffs: Professionally dressed and very friendly, attentive and service was fast. Offered me a postcard (With a picture of the view from your seat), they will send it anywhere it the world if you fill it in, complimentary :) I thought it was a really nice gesture! 

The view was ok. If you are seated next the to window (depending where) you'd probably get to have an overview of the city. But there's also a seating section where the view faces a large field.

I enjoyed the food mains the most. The pork cheeks were soft and juicy, nicely paired with polenta. The portions were ok, not too big but definitely not a tasting menu's size either. I thought the orange cake could have done slightly better. 

Seems like an OK place to take my parents here for tea or lunch. They would probably appreciate the classic interior and the peaceful scenery.
