Le Di-Vin

An award-winning wine bar on Randolph Place in the West End, with more than a hundred wines, platters to share and raclette, and a French restaurant upstairs.

Welcome

There's something very French about an evening of wine, cheese and conversation, and Le Di-Vin, on Randolph Place in the West End, gets it just right.

This award-winning wine bar was named by The Sunday Times among the twenty-five best in the UK, and its list runs to more than a hundred wines by the bottle and over thirty by the glass. The food is simple and generous: platters of cheese and charcuterie, smoked fish, terrines and salads, and the raclette it is known for across the city. Wine tastings are held through the year, and the whole bar can be hired for a party. Upstairs is its sister restaurant, La P'tite Folie, for traditional French cooking with a modern twist. Le Di-Vin opens every day except Sunday from noon until late, and you can book a table online.
