Princess Diana’s favourite restaurant, Daphne’s is less influential than in its thrilling 80s hey-day – but remains a dependable and utterly classic Chelsea restaurant. Serving hearty Italian dining the service here is impeccable, honed by decades of serving Chelsea’s upper-echelons – although often busy, you certainly won’t be rushed, and never snapped at (quelle horreur). Daphne’s has been brought a little more into the modern day after a refurbishment (made necessary by a fire in 2014), and the interiors are pure luxury: vintage 1950s Murano glass chandeliers drip from the ceiling, pink marble top the bar, while pleasingly crisp, white table cloths adorn every table.
