Wiltons Restaurant

Wiltons Restaurant | 152 followers on LinkedIn. British oyster, seafood and game restaurant established in 1742 | When George William Wilton opened his shellfish-mongers close to Haymarket in 1742, he could have had no idea that his business would still be thriving nearly 275 years later. George’s oysters were a great success with the local traders and, after devoting 28 years of his life to serving, he passed the business on to his son Francis Charles Wilton. The shop stall continued to thrive and grow under Francis’s ownership and in 1805 he left Wiltons to his nephew, Rooms and had secured a licence in 1840 to sell wine and beer on the premises, making it a fully-fledged restaurant.
