Wimbledon offers more than just opportunities to play professional tennis, and if you're on the lookout for a culinary oasis after watching a tough battle on court, then San Lorenzo may well prove to be a good choice. Setting high standards for authentic Italian cuisine since the 1970's, this place has proved to be a big hit with the tennis glitterati and still continues to attract diners for its wholesome Tuscan cuisine.

The menu is driven by the seasons and opens with dishes such as bianchetti fritti, fried whitebait with spicy tomato dips, and seared Scotch sirloin with robespierre sauce. Diners could explore a delicious farona al rosmarino, breast of guinea fowl in garlic, wine and rosemary French fries, or veal escalopes with butter and lemon mashed potato in the next course. Pannacotta with forest fruit coulis, and Venetian carrot and walnut cake with vanilla mascarpone provide a perfect finishing touch. The pleasure of dining out could be further enhanced by selecting your favourite drink from the extensive wine list.

In warmer months, the large secluded garden is a good option for alfresco dining.
