Ochre Brasserie

Ochre is a smart bistro de-luxe on the ground floor of the National Gallery's William Wilkins building, a Michelin Plate holder that has raised the bar for museum dining. The all-day menu is structured into distinct formats—brunch, afternoon tea, a prix fixe, and a dinner à la carte—that can be ordered as three courses or as flexible small and large plates. The cooking draws on a wide contemporary vocabulary, with signature dishes including burrata with fennel and orange, Cornish mussels, and steak with peppercorn sauce. The room is comfortable and considered, offering a warm welcome in a formal, Grade I listed setting on Trafalgar Square.
