In terms of formal, sit-down restaurants with licenses, Wilton's dates from 1742 but has changed location several times.

Simpsons changed from a pub to a restaurant at some stage since 1757


Rules has stayed in place since 1798




The oldest pubs (that would invariably have served food) date from the 1200's - but cellars aside (which also date from that century), the oldest still in the same building is Spaniards Inn from 1585, that still serves food.
