Le Regret

Le Regret is a classy French-inspired tabac-style restaurant and bar on High Road Leyton, one of the most talked-about new openings in Leyton E10 in 2024/2025, ranked second (23%) in the Leytonstoner readers' best new opening poll for 2025 -- just behind Loop but ahead of Swirl and several other new contenders. The name -- evoking the French tabac tradition of a neighbourhood bar and restaurant where locals gather for coffee, wine and unhurried conversation -- sets the tone for a venue that brings a touch of Parisian neighbourhood charm to Leyton's busy High Road.

The menu covers French-influenced dishes in the tabac tradition: charcuterie, cheese boards, classic bistro dishes and a well-chosen wine list served in a stylish, warm setting on the High Road. A welcome addition to Leyton's growing independent restaurant scene. Open daily from morning into the evening.
