French-style deli restaurant announces opening date for new Chelsea location

Le Deli by Joël Robuchon International will open on the King’s Road in Chelsea on Monday 30 October.

The new site will open early until late, with breakfast, lunch and dinner available to eat in or to take-away, as well as the bread and patisserie for which Le Deli Robuchon is known. Since the first Le Deli opened in Piccadilly in 2019, this ‘casual yet sophisticated’ spot has become a staple in the area and the new location will be no different.

Le Deli King’s Road will open for breakfast, offering French deli-style food all day, and then wine, cheese and charcuterie in the evenings. King’s Road locals will be the first to try the brand-new savoury iteration of Le Deli’s cube croissant, to be revealed on opening.

This smart but relaxed open-plan deli invites guests to enjoy the space from morning to night, with a cream leather seating area in full view of the extensive produce shelves, bearing ‘the very best’ French pantry essentials, from boxes of Valrhona chocolates to artisanal jams.

The wrap-around deli counter occupies one end of the room and will be one of the few places in London to serve French rotisserie chicken, freshly cooked and available to take away or to eat in, alongside a selection of fresh seasonal salads.

Guests will be able to watch the pastry chefs adding the finishing touches to their creations in the kitchen, while those sitting at the circular marble-topped tables at the front of Le Deli will be able to watch the world go by on the bustling King’s Road.

The food offering has been created by Group Executive Chef David Alves, who has brought a ‘simple yet elevated’ French flair to the all-day menu at Le Deli. David was also key in the menu development at the recently relaunched L’Atelier Robuchon in Mayfair.

To kick off the day, early risers can choose from a cooked breakfast, with specialities including Eggs Benedict, Ham & Cheese or Goats Cheese Croissant, Avocado Omelette with Caviar, or classic freshly baked viennoiserie.

From 10am onwards the renowned cube croissant Le Deli has become famous for will be available in a variety of flavours including Pistachio, Vanilla and Chocolate. Le Deli King’s Road will be introducing new croissant flavours as well as their first ever savoury cube.

For lunch, there will be a selection of salads, hot plates and daily specials, sandwiches and quiches. Evenings will offer cheeses alongside charcuterie boards and bread baskets freshly baked in-house. For drinks, a cocktail menu includes classic spritzes, a Coffee Negroni and Chamomile Fizz, alongside a selection of hand-picked French wines.
