Mike's review
Visited 2024Take a detour once you’re done with Covent Garden and head this way. Lots of good spots to eat.
From the source
Compact West End dining district around Gerrard Street, packed with Chinese restaurants, bakeries, supermarkets, and late-night energy. It is easiest as a food stop before or after Soho, Leicester Square, or a theatre booking.

Chinatown is a public neighborhood rather than a gated attraction. Restaurants, shops, bars, and services keep their own hours, and the official site recommends checking the specific venue you plan to visit before traveling.
