ELEGANTLY NESTLED into the new wing of the West

End’s iconic Somerset House lies an artistic gem. From farm-

to-table dining and airy modern decor, the team at Spring – led

by chef Skye Gyngell – pay stylish attention to every detail of

the event experience. This is exactly the kind of commitment we

want when celebrating the important moments in our lives,

whether that’s weddings and anniversaries, business launches or

other milestones, it is truly the venue that goes above and beyond.

No stranger to gourmet-quality seasonal dishes, Skye worked

at London’s famed The French House before taking the role

of head chef at Petersham Nurseries. At Spring, she now

works exclusively with Fern Verrow, a 16-acre biodynamic

farm in Herefordshire. The idea is to create menus solely

using English produce that has an ethical and sustainable

focus, from farm soil directly to your plate. Further to this,

Skye’s team has been operating on a single-use plastic-free

basis since 2018, and the innovative Scratch menu uses often

overlooked parts of ingredients to create delicious meals. Skye

is leading London’s gastronomic quest to show how every

small change can lead to a big impact.

Effortless style, farm-fresh seasonal produce and an

all-round commitment to dining excellence make Skye

Gyngell’s critically acclaimed restaurant, Spring at

Somerset House, the venue for all your special moments

Spring is divided into the spacious main dining room and a

more intimate enclosed atrium, featuring black-olive trees and

other beautiful flora and fauna designs by the acclaimed

landscape designer Jinny Blom. The venue is legally certified

to host wedding ceremonies, and comes with a black book of

London’s finest suppliers, rooms dressed in 100 per cent linen,

flowers sourced from JamJar and placement cards written up

for your guests, making the flow of your special day

a breeze. Whichever space you choose, you can also

rest easy in your collaboration with Skye on a bespoke

menu, cocktails and sommelier paired wines. This

team creates artful moments of celebration that will

stay with you forever. n
