Many people know that the oldest restaurant in the world is the Botin Restaurant in Madrid, Spain. It has been operating since 1725 and has a history of nearly 300 years.

However, there are also many time-honored restaurants in London, England, not far away.

Next, let’s get to know these elderly “old antiques” who have traveled through a century.

London's oldest restaurant, Wiltons, opened in 1742.

Wiltons is more than just an oyster restaurant. In 1868, it was chartered by the British Royal Family and was awarded the title of the first restaurant to serve oysters to Queen Victoria and the Royal Family.

Ivy Restaurant

This Italian restaurant opened in 1917 and is very popular with celebrities and artists. In recent years, The Ivy has quickly become one of London's most highly regarded restaurants.

When you come to Ivy Restaurant, a must-order dish is the dessert "Ivy Outside the Window" carefully made by chef Gary Lee. Its design is inspired by the hotel's colorful stained windows.
