London’s Longest-Standing Michelin Star Restaurant
A Michelin-Starred Legacy Since 1991
Founded in 1991, Restaurant Pied à Terre is proud to be the London's most enduring Michelin-starred restaurant. Still owned and run by visionary restaurateur David Moore, the restaurant has remained fiercely independent for over three decades. Known for its modern British cuisine enriched with classic French techniques, every dish reflects a dedication to flavour, balance, and seasonality. The restaurant’s commitment to excellence was further recognised when it was named joint first in Wine List Confidential’s UK Top Restaurants for Wine 2024. Guests continue to enjoy a dining experience that is stylish, intimate, and deeply memorable — where culinary craftsmanship, warm hospitality, and innovation converge.
Meet The Man Behind This Culinary Legacy - David Moore
David Moore began his career with six formative years under Raymond Blanc at Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, where he developed a deep respect for hospitality and artistry. In 1991, he established Pied à Terre in Fitzrovia, earning a Michelin Star in its first year and setting a new benchmark for independent fine dining.
A Passion For Hospitality - Moore’s reputation is built on his front-of-house excellence, engaging personality, and love of entertaining. His flair extends beyond the dining room, with collaborations in art, unique restaurant projects, and his signature “loud shirts” that have become a hallmark of his vibrant character.
This Is Moore - In addition to leading Pied à Terre, David shares his expertise with the wider hospitality world through his consultancy, This Is Moore. His vision continues to shape the industry, blending creativity, care, and decades of hands-on experience.

SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES
BY PIED À TERRE
At Pied à Terre, sustainability is more than a promise — it’s a philosophy that guides every aspect of our operations. We are committed to non-polluting processes, efficient energy and water usage, and ensuring a safe environment for both our guests and our team. Every initiative is designed to reduce our impact today while protecting resources for future generations, all without compromising the quality of the guest experience.
Water Management
We monitor our water usage weekly and train our team to operate with efficiency and care. A newly installed filtration and reusable bottling system has eliminated the need for single-use plastic, saving approximately 16,000 bottles every year.
Partners We Trust
Our ingredients are sourced only from suppliers who share our ethos of sustainability and responsibility. By choosing trusted partners, we ensure that every dish reflects not just flavour and seasonality, but integrity and respect for the planet.
Clean Energy
In pursuit of energy efficiency and workplace safety, our kitchen now operates induction-only technology. This transition reduces environmental impact, lowers energy use, and creates a safer space for our chefs.
Use & Reuse
From paper and cardboard to bottles, batteries, and food waste, recycling is part of our everyday culture. We also work closely with suppliers, encouraging the use of recyclable packaging wherever possible.
Changing Lives Together
Beyond the kitchen, we extend our values to the wider world. Through our chosen charity, Karuna Sri Lanka, £2 from every guest bill supports children and young women with education, food, medication, and independence training. This initiative is personally supported by David Moore and his family, reflecting a deep commitment to making a lasting difference.
