The French restaurant, located on Dovehouse Street in Chelsea Square, will have its last service on 31 December. Le Colombier was opened by Didier Garnier in 1998 and is beloved for its French food and excellent value wine list. “After 27 incredible years it is with a heavy heart that we announce the imminent closure of Le Colombier Restaurant,” says Garnier in a statement. “Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are unable to renew our lease and will be closing our doors on Wednesday 31 December 2025. “While this chapter is coming to an end, we hope the spirit of Le Colombier Restaurant lives on in the hearts of our customers and the community we’ve been honoured to serve.
