Menus and dishes subject to change.

Some of our dishes served are halal. Please contact our Reservations team or check with your server on the day, as not all meats are halal and some dishes contain alcohol.

We occupy an iconic site, which is also a historic and listed building. Consequently, due to legacy configuration and design, access to all areas and therefore services (including washroom facilities) may not be accessible for all disabled customers.

We have one-step access from street level to the ground floor of the restaurant but do provide a ramp. It is also recognisable that doorways within our historic layout are relatively narrow throughout and preclude wheelchair access to the washroom area, located on the ground floor.

Our lower ground level is accessible via a staircase as we unfortunately do not have a lift within the historic venue. Access and manoeuvrability around the premises may not always be possible for persons with varying mobility requirements. However, Stork will ensure that where access permits all our customers will receive the same level of service, when joining us for the Stork dining experience. 

There is paid on-street parking outside Stork and the immediate side streets. The nearest car park is located on Old Burlington Street and is a 3-minute walk. Q-Park Burlington Car Park – 3-9 Old Burlington St, Mayfair, London W1S 3AF.

Guide dogs are permitted, please kindly notify us in advance

Guests with pets are permissible for al fresco dining outside only.

We do provide a cloakroom service. Coats, bags, cabin sized luggage can be stored. Any larger items will not be permitted into the restaurant or stored within the cloakroom due to size and space available.
