Le Galvin La Chapelle a été acclamé par la critique, et avec raison : c'est une véritable destination culinaire. Ce restaurant fabuleux, situé juste à côté de la célèbre Bishopsgate à Londres est l'œuvre des célèbres frères chef-restaurateurs Chris et Jeff Galvin, et incarne leur approche de la restauration, dans tous les sens du terme. En effet, le Galvin La Chapelle possède tout le facteur « wow » du Windows avec le raffinement élégant du Galvin Bistrot de Luxe, tout en se taillant son propre caractère en même temps. L'intérieur est vraiment spécial, tout comme la nourriture - cosmopolite, continentale et tout à fait élégante à chaque tournant, créative mais familière, spéciale mais sans prétention. Pas étonnant que le Galvin La Chapelle ait été nommé Restaurant de l'année par Tatler en 2010 et Meilleur restaurant de Londres en 2010 .
