Voting for the best restaurants in the capital commences on 5 February.
FACT Magazine is thrilled to announce the debut of the FACT Dining Awards London, which recognises and celebrates the exceptional culinary talent, innovation, and diversity that define the capital’s dining scene. Following the success of the FACT Dining Awards in the Middle East, the prestigious event makes its much-anticipated entry into one of the world’s most dynamic culinary hubs.
A Platform for Excellence
The FACT Dining Awards have earned a reputation for honouring excellence in the food and beverage industry. With a presence in Abu Dhabi, Doha, Dubai, Manama, and Riyadh, the awards are distinguished by their transparent voting process, combining public votes with expert industry insights to crown the best dining destinations across various categories. The process remains free to enter and attend, ensuring that each accolade is awarded on merit.
FACT Magazine's Publisher, Edward Smith, explains: “FACT Magazine has long been dedicated to celebrating the best in arts, culture, travel, and, importantly, food. We’re excited to launch the FACT Dining Awards London, bringing our passion and expertise to one of the world’s most vibrant culinary capitals.
This launch marks an exciting chapter in our ongoing mission to celebrate cities. The GCC and London share a special, strong, and long-standing relationship, and the capital is a popular destination for this market to live, study, work, and visit. Due to our unique position, we will showcase this synergy and introduce an innovative offering in the global accolade ecosystem.
With FACT Dining Awards London, we are the first dining accolade to combine expert opinions and public voices in selecting the winners. This groundbreaking initiative sets a benchmark in the industry, fostering credibility, inclusivity, and legitimacy while redefining how excellence in dining is recognised worldwide. And, we are unique in our approach: restaurants are never required to pay to enter or attend.”
Highlighting London’s Culinary Diversity
London’s dining scene is a melting pot of cultures, offering a vibrant array of cuisines and experiences. FACT Dining Awards London will shine a spotlight on the culinary innovators and establishments that shape this extraordinary landscape. Categories span the breadth of London’s dining offerings. Special emphasis will be placed on recognising restaurants championing sustainability and diversity.
How It Works
The FACT Dining Awards London recognises excellence in the food and beverage industry, with winners awarded based on public votes and critics’ opinions. Each category will have two awards: BEST and FAVOURITE. The latter is the result of a popular choice decided through online voting, and the former is the critics’ choice chosen by the FACT editorial team and an independent panel of industry experts.
A Night to Remember
The inaugural FACT Dining Awards London will culminate in a glamorous ceremony, bringing together industry leaders, celebrity chefs, restaurateurs, and food enthusiasts to celebrate the winners. The event features a culinary showcase, live entertainment, and unparalleled networking opportunities.
