Our story...
True to the spirit of traditional French Cafés
Since la Belle Epoch Paris has been synonymous with café culture; spaces for luminaries, radicals and creative spirits to come together and while away the hours, shaping contemporary cultural expression as they did so. It’s from this indisputable je ne sais quoi that Colbert takes its inspiration, creating a slice of Paris here in the centre of London’s Chelsea – itself a cultural epicentre.
Slowly expanding over the last century to accommodate le patron’s ever-growing collection of art and local memorabilia, Colbert stays true to the spirit of traditional French cafés. And with its prime position on Sloane Square next to The Royal Court Theatre, it is perhaps the perfect spot to spend a few hours, whether for drinks, snacks or a full meal.
