TTE Lunch 2027 – Le Sacré Coeur, Islington

Over the years, we have recommended Le Sacré Coeur to many of our guests when visiting the Sadler’s Wells area, and the feedback has always been exceptional. Guests particularly love the friendly atmosphere, traditional French food and the feeling that they have discovered somewhere a little different from the usual London restaurants.

This is one of our very favourite restaurants in London and somewhere that holds a special place in our hearts. It has long been a favourite of my Dad, Ken, and my husband, Neil, and it is always a pleasure to return.

The Islington area is particularly special to Dad, as he was born just a few minutes away on Liverpool Road. During our visit, he will be able to point out some fascinating local landmarks and share a little of the area’s history, including the location of a building which used to be an old air-raid shelter along Liverpool Road itself.

It makes this visit so much more than simply a lovely lunch. It is also a chance to discover a part of London with real history, character and personal memories attached to it — something we think makes the day even more special.

We are therefore delighted to include this wonderful little restaurant as part of our TTE Lunch 2027.

We plan to arrive in Islington at approximately 11.45am, ready for lunch at 12 noon. Our leisurely three-course luncheon will finish at approximately 2.00pm.

About Le Sacré Coeur

Tucked away in the heart of Angel, Islington, Le Sacré Coeur is a wonderfully traditional French bistro with a cosy, warm and welcoming atmosphere.

One of the area’s long-established French restaurants, it has built an excellent reputation over the years for serving hearty, traditional and indulgent French dishes in relaxed surroundings.

It is charmingly quirky, intimate and full of character – exactly the sort of place that makes a day in London feel that little bit more special. Rather than a large, impersonal restaurant, Le Sacré Coeur has the atmosphere of a neighbourhood Parisian bistro and is a real hidden gem.

Afternoon in Islington

Once we have finished our luncheon at around 2.00pm, the rest of the afternoon is yours to enjoy at leisure.

Islington is a lovely part of London to explore on foot, with handsome Georgian streets, independent shops, cafés, pubs and plenty of interesting corners to discover.

Be sure to seek out the historic “Hole in the Wall”, a fascinating little spot steeped in local history and well worth a look while you are in the area.

You may also like to take a leisurely wander along Upper Street, one of Islington’s best-known thoroughfares. It is packed with an eclectic mixture of independent shops, boutiques, cafés and restaurants and is a wonderful place simply to stroll, browse and enjoy the atmosphere.

Those who enjoy hunting for something a little different can spend time looking around the area’s antique and vintage shops, where you never quite know what unusual treasure you might discover.

Alternatively, if you fancy venturing a little further, you could make your way across to Camden. With its famous market, canal-side walks, colourful shops and lively atmosphere, it offers a completely different side of London and is an enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours before returning to Islington.

Our coach will depart from the agreed collection point in Islington at 5.30pm.

Dad, Neil and I would absolutely love to introduce you to this little London gem. It is somewhere that means a great deal to us personally, and with such a lovely three-course meal included, we think it offers wonderful value too.

We hope you will come along, enjoy a relaxed French luncheon with us and then have a few hours to discover one of our favourite corners of London.
