This Valentine’s Day, make your love story as memorable as the setting by heading to Pivot, Covent Garden’s celebrated bistro, nestled in the heart of London’s Theatreland. Helmed by award-winning chef Mark Greenaway, Pivot is renowned for its modern twist on British classics, and this year, the restaurant is pulling out all the stops with a Valentine’s menu designed to sweep you—and your taste buds—off your feet.

Available exclusively on Friday 14th and Saturday 15th February, this limited-edition menu promises an unforgettable dining experience. Early birds who book the 6pm to 7:30pm sitting will enjoy a complimentary glass of champagne to kick off the evening with a touch of sparkle. Prefer a later, more intimate atmosphere? The 8pm to 9:30pm sitting is perfect for a candlelit culinary adventure.

A feast of romance

The Valentine’s Day menu reads like a love letter to fine dining, featuring dishes that showcase the best of seasonal British ingredients. Start your evening with one of three exquisite starters: delicate English Asparagus accompanied by a perfectly poached hen egg and rich truffle hollandaise, the indulgent Chicken & Pork Liver Pate, or luxurious Seared Scallops served with gremolata, pine nuts, and a dramatic black tuile.

For the main event, couples can savour the succulent Fillet of Striploin or the elegantly prepared Pan Seared Sea Bass, complemented by a silky chive beurre blanc. Vegetarians and vegans aren’t left out of the romance either, with a Salt Baked Celeriac dish that pairs beautifully with endive, raisin purée, vegan yoghurt, and pistachios.

Of course, no Valentine’s Day dinner would be complete without dessert, and Pivot’s selection is designed to end the evening on a sweet note. Choose from a Raspberry Pavlova with zesty lemon curd, a comforting Warm Cookie Dough with creamy vanilla ice cream, or a rich Chocolate Mousse featuring strawberries and crunchy hazelnuts.

Sip, savour, and sparkle

As if the food wasn’t enough to ignite your senses, Pivot’s bar team has created three exclusive Valentine’s cocktails to accompany the meal. The Floral Negroni, with its blend of gin, bergamot liqueur, elderflower, and violet, is as enchanting as a bouquet of fresh flowers. The Love & Passion Margarita adds a tropical flair to the evening with tequila, Aperol, agave, and passion fruit purée, while the Fizz & Kiss offers a sparkling combination of champagne, gin, triple sec, and cranberry juice—a perfect toast to romance.

Located in the iconic Henrietta Hotel, Pivot combines the charm of Covent Garden with a cosy, sophisticated ambience that feels tailor-made for romance.
