Cherry blossom season is almost here in London and of course, we all know there are plenty of cherry blossom trees scattered across the city scattering their pretty little petals, but today we want to draw your attention to London’s restaurant scene that’s blooming with blossom after blossom.
From beautifully pink florals draping from the ceilings to afternoon teas inspired by the little petals, here’s seven restaurants in full bloom for cherry blossom season in London.
Tattu
A twist on the classic Negroni, Tattu’s Cherry Blossom Negroni adds a sweet blossom vermouth to cut through the acidity of the cherry.
With locations across the UK, Tattu is renowned for its cherry blossom installations, although the London location takes its interiors up a notch with a more refined aesthetic. Head here for modern Chinese dishes with a twist.

Cherry On
Home of all things cherry, Cherry On is the perfect place to indulge in a sweet treat, all surrounded by gorgeous cherry blossom inspired decor. Every dish is pimped to perfection and almost too pretty to eat.
Cosy into one of their banquette booths and order from their delicious brunch menu or opt for a sweet treat that matches the pink aesthetic.

Mei Ume
Trinity Square’s Mei Ume is all about the cherry blossom. Last year saw the restaurant get dressed up to celebrate Hanami, the Japanese tradition of welcoming spring and enjoy the transient beauty of cherry blossom season. The restaurant is yet to confirm if it’ll be dressed to the nines this year but even so, it’s still worth experiencing after you’ve snapped a photo at one of London’s outdoor blossom destination.
WHERE: 10 TRINITY SQUARE, LONDON EC3N 4AJ.

Nobu

This blossom season head down to experience traditional Japenese dishes and cocktails.
