The world´s best Garden Restaurants



Sometimes when you visit a city it is nice to find these Garden Restaurants. They are the hiddens gems where you can relax and enjoy the feeling of beeing in a secret garden in the middle of a buzzing city.



  
  1. France, Paris: A lunch in the garden of restaurant Laurent is marvellous. Check out the the beautiful pictures on their website. Oui!
  2. Italy, Rome. Hotel 47 has a trendy internal courtyard. Let your feet and wallet rest, relax here after a day of shopping and sightseeing.
  3. Austria, Vienna: If you prefer a luxury lunch in a garden. Have a lunch in the garden of Steirereck im Stadtpark (in the city park). It is a Relais & Chateaux Restaurant . The “Steirereck” in Vienna is located in the heart of the central "city park", close to the famous Johann Strauss statue
  4. UK, London. The Roof Gardens, restaurant Babylon has a fantastic view. It is located on the top floor of a building on Kensington High Street, in the middle of London. There is actually a garden here with real ducks.
  5. South Africa, Franschhoek. This is one of my favourite areas in South Africa. There are so many super nice hotels and restaurants here. The wineyards of Vrede en Lust, Graham Beck, La Motte and Rupert & Rothschild, do I need to say more?  Have a lunch in the garden of the awardwinning Monneaux Restaurant resturant.
  6. Sweden, Stockholm. Millesgården. I was totally stunned when I saw all the beautiful huge statues by Carl Milles. (visit only when the weather is nice).
  7. South Africa, The Irene lodge is located in the middle of Johannesburg and Pretoria. It is really nice and have great jazz lunches in the weekends.
  8. Spain, Costa Brava. It is quite expensive, but outside in a garden, with great food and off the tourist streets is restaurant Toc de Sol in Castell d’Aro very close to Platja d’Aro.
  9. Thailand, Bangkok. The garden restaurant by the Chao Phraya River of the hotel Mandarin Oriental is marvellous. Go here in the evening and enjoy the atomosphere. I just love it! After dinner you should visit the Baboo bar for some jazz music.
Do you know any more cosy or luxury garden restaurants? Please leave a comment here so I can add it to my list.
