How Bruton Place went from side street to Mayfair food mecca

In Mayfair, there is a small side-street that once was overlooked. It runs east off Berkeley Square, but is not what you’d call a cut-through: using it to get from the square to Bond Street is slower than simply wandering down the main street. This is the scenic route.

It’s always had its visitors, some famous, some not, but now this side-street — Bruton Place — is something else entirely, emerging as a newly vibrant destination, driven by a wave of openings joining the existing grandees.
