‘Golden Age’ for London Diners
According Harden’s Restaurant Guide today, a record 158 new restaurants have opened in London in the past twelve months, up 13% on the previous year.
It’s not clear what categorisation this survey has used to define a restaurant distinct from say a cafe or gastro pub, however, given the rate that we are currently adding recently opened eating establishments to welovelocal.com, I would probably peg even this phenomenal boom as conservative compared to the next twelve months.
At our last count, we currently feature over 8,000 eating establishments across eighty categories covering everything from Afghan to Mongolian cuisine, with a few great places to get a proper British fry-up in-between. Either way, it’s a great time to be eating out in London.

I’m uncertain if I would consider it “The Golden Age”. As we may have noticed: Quantity does not equate to Quality. I suppose that’s one of the purposes of websites that allow the end-user/consumer to review the business. Such websites allow people to read other people’s opinions. However, the problem is that some people will not trust the opinion of the “average person” and would want an “acclaimed critic” to review the place (I don’t see any London-based publications doing reviews of all the restaraunts, businesses, and establishments locally).
I’m glad there’s more of a selection for people to check out. However, the mass of businesses aren’t all going to be those “Three” or “Four” star reviews. But it does account for the amount of people willing to try to run a business.
