74 Duke London Review: Late-Night Dining in the Heart of Mayfair

There’s something about Mayfair late at night that feels effortlessly cinematic, and dinner at 74 Duke completely lived up to that energy.

Having only opened in spring 2025, this sleek Parisian-style brasserie feels like one of Mayfair’s most exciting recent additions - and trust me, it’s living up to the hype.

I was craving somewhere chic but comforting, and this was exactly the right choice. The space is intimate and softly lit, with that understated luxury Mayfair does best. It feels polished and grown-up, yet still warm enough to properly relax and settle in for the evening.

The menu has all thise things you love and every dish was beautifully executed and packed with flavour. It’s refined without ever feeling fussy - elevated dining that’s genuinely satisfying. And the cocktails? Smooth, balanced, and dangerously easy to keep ordering.

What I loved most was the vibe. Even late at night it felt calm, elegant and quietly buzzy - perfect for lingering over dessert and soaking up the moment.

It’s the kind of place you walk out of feeling slightly more glamorous than when you arrived - and definitely worth a return.
