Shop, Café & Restaurant Fit-Outs in Mayfair.
A commercial fit-out is judged on one thing: whether the doors open on the date agreed. We have fitted out cafés, patisseries, restaurants and shops across London, including units in stations where working hours are tightly controlled, and we plan every job backwards from the opening date.
The work covers design and drawings, the landlord's approval, planning permission for shopfronts and signage, building control, and the fit-out itself: partitions, services, extraction, counters and joinery, flooring, lighting and decoration. Where the unit is trading, we build joinery off site and install overnight.
For a unit in Mayfair we start with the lease and the landlord's requirements, check what the City of Westminster will need for the shopfront and any change of use, and then agree a fixed programme with you.

Mayfair: the houses and the planning rules.
Mayfair is Georgian London at its grandest: the Grosvenor Estate's squares and streets, five-storey townhouses on Mount Street and South Audley Street, mews behind, and later mansion blocks and apartment buildings. Most houses are Grade II listed, the whole district is a conservation area, and the Grosvenor Estate exercises its own control over many properties.
We have fitted kitchens on South Audley Street, working with ebony veneers, Corian and Miele appliances in rooms with original cornices and shutters. Projects here are logistically demanding: restricted parking, timed deliveries, concierge buildings and neighbours who expect a quiet, tidy site.
The Mayfair Conservation Area covers the whole district.
Westminster City Council
Planning and listed building consent are decided by Westminster, with Historic England consulted on the most significant houses.
Grosvenor Estate
Where the freehold is held by the Grosvenor Estate, its own consent and design guidance apply in addition to the council's.
Basements
Westminster's basement policy limits depth and extent under gardens and requires a Basement Impact Assessment.

Shop, Café & Restaurant Fit-Outs in Mayfair: your questions.
Can you fit out a shop or café in Mayfair around trading hours?
Yes. We plan the programme around your opening hours and the landlord's rules, building joinery off site and installing overnight where necessary.
Do I need permission for a new shopfront?
Usually yes. Shopfront changes need planning permission from the City of Westminster and illuminated signage needs advertisement consent. We prepare and submit both.
