Reasons for decision
From its modest beginnings as a market stall, Wiltons had evolved to become a national treasure here in Westminster. The dining haunt of politicians, journalists, businessmen, bankers and members of the Royal Family. It was no wonder that 275 years on, this quintessentially English establishment remained an idyll of a bygone tradition of fine British dining, reminiscent and evocative of the long standing salon era of past centuries.
