This Father’s Day, we invite you to gather around the table and celebrate properly.
At Doost & Amici, we have created a menu that brings together the bold, comforting flavours of Persia with the warmth and generosity of Italian dining. Think grilled meats, slow-cooked stews, fresh bread, and dishes designed to be shared.
Whether you are planning a relaxed lunch or a long, enjoyable dinner, our Father’s Day menu is all about good food, good wine, and time together.
Join us at Doost & Amici this London Marathon weekend, just minutes from the route near Kia Oval.
From carefully prepared pre-race dinners to light race morning breakfasts and post-race celebrations, our menus are designed to support runners and welcome friends and family.
If you are looking for dining near the Kia Oval, Doost & Amici is only a short walk from the ground and offers a full day of hospitality on selected international cricket match days.
Set in the heart of Kennington, and convenient for guests arriving via Oval Station, we have created a match-day programme for those who would like something more relaxed, more personal, and more memorable than a rushed stop before or after the cricket.
