UK’s oldest Indian restaurant contests eviction
Veeraswamy, the UK’s oldest Indian restaurant established in 1926 on Regent Street, faces eviction after the crown estate declined to renew its £205,000-a-year lease. The restaurant, renowned for its historic guests and Michelin star, is contesting the decision in court, proposing to share a larger entrance with adjacent office renovations rather than relocate. The crown estate aims to refurbish Victory House's upper floors for increased rental income, but the restaurant's owners argue relocation costs and insufficient compensation make remaining in place the better option. A court hearing begins later this month to resolve the dispute.
