Whether it’s beautiful sceneries you want, romantic, cosy and private locations or even a venue that will do everything for you; we have made a definitive list of London’s best places to ask that special question and hopefully get the answer you’re hoping for.
For an unbelievably elegant backdrop to your engagement snaps, say I do to the Leopard Room. A private bar and restaurant opposite the Royal Mews of Buckingham Palace, it's got plenty of wow factor before you even walk in the door.
There's all kinds on offer to set the mood, from canapes and champagne to fine dining and live entertainment. With room for 20 seated or 40 on their feet, you can share you special moment with all of your nearest and dearest or a more chosen few.
Directly opposite Kensington Palace, Cheneston's restaurant at The Milestone Hotel adds sophisticated sparkle to your special occasion. Serving up salmon from London's oldest smokery and prime cuts of meat on silver trolleys, every dish is as carefully considered as your decision to pop the question.
Calm your nerves with a glass of fizz on arrival or fuel up for the big moment with hearty homemade dishes like buckwheat linguine, smoked duck breast and dry aged sirloin steak.
Planning to pop the biggest question of all? Do it VIP style at Gordon Ramsey's Hell's Kitchen.
To build up your courage, you can tuck into the TV chef's signature dishes like beef Wellington, lobster risotto or premium wagyu tomahawk. With your yes safely secured, it's time to celebrate with the finest fizz.
If you're looking for subtle wow-factor in your proposal-bar, check out Rake's Café Bar located within the unique five-star lifestyle hotel Andaz London Liverpool Street. Whether you come for cocktails, breakfast, lunch or brunch, you will be hosted by a team of individual characters - all with a love of wine, food and cocktails. Which will come handy if all goes to plan…
Ready to pop the question? We know just the place to do so. Disrepute is Soho's answer to the cool and hedonistic vibe of the 60s, making it an impressive and memorable place to propose. Celebrate with stunning cocktails and bubbles once they say yes.
The elegant dining rooms of The Egerton House Hotel make for a beautiful backdrop for your big moment. With so much on offer here, the hardest part is knowing when to pop the question.
You could set the mood with an indulgent afternoon tea, get down on one knee over a martini-paired lunch or wait for the evening to propose with fine dining and champagne. With rings on fingers and smiles on faces, you can cap off the night with a signature cocktail or head upstairs to stay in a seriously stylish room.
We honestly can't think of a better backdrop to pop the question than Wagtail Rooftop Bar & Restaurant. Totally gorgeous inside out, with a stunning rooftop terrace and beautifully chic interiors, it's the ultimate spot for a romantic, special occasion meal with your future fiance.
