LEGO 42691 Garden Restaurant official images!
Posted by CapnRex101,
Lots of new LEGO Friends sets will be released on January 1st and we covered most in a previous article.
However, another set was added to LEGO.com after that article was published and it is probably the standout: 42691 Garden Restaurant! I think this 1465-piece looks spectacular, making great use of colour and capturing lovely architectural detail.
The set will cost £119.99, $129.99 or €129.99 and you can find some more images below...

Nice it is something to behold fur real!
Love that the cast evolved into a new generation.
Friends buildings > City buildings. Every. Single. Year.
Gorgeous Friends sets of this caliber almost feel like a yearly tradition now. I’m so glad Friends hit the ground running with 2026’s new colors.
Really cool set! North African architecture/cuisine is something that's not exactly common in Lego, and this take on it is absolutely gorgeous. Maybe the best use of the new warm pink color so far, too.
Fancy restaurant, has its own pool.
Looks like something you'd see in an African oasis
They did it. It’s a Casa Bonita Lego set
Paradisa is back, baby!

Very red city Morocco.
Love the build (out of my price range probably) but one thing sticks out like a sore thumb: This seems less like a restaurant and more like a hotel that ignores the bedrooms. There's a whole poolside and fireplace common area that aren't dining areas lol.

I've been wanting Friends to do a Paradisa homage for a while. This isn't that *exactly,* but it *does* have some of the same vibes.
I love it, but I'm a little confused about the ground floor. Is that a living space? Is someone living on the ground flood, and the restaurant is the second floor and roof?
The shallow pool at the front gives it spa vibes.
Loving the Moroccan vibe and architecture of the Garden Restaurant!
The set is really gorgeous, but the interior choices are really weird when you look closer.
For a restaurant, there's no kitchen but a buffet of some sorts - right next to the toilet that has no doors.
There's also a lounge with a pool right outside of it, with no showers or anything hinting of a dressing room.
I just have to question the hygiene level of this so-called restaurant! XD

I've seen restaurants that had open-air pools before, but usually the only things swimming in them are fish. And occasionally the arm candy of the guy who's writing a check to buy the building.
The real Lego Architecture was the Friends we made along the way.

With tagines to boot.
I thought it was a Disney Aladdin set.
Doesn't look like Friends to me at all.
The new old looking pink is great. Hopefully Paradisa mocs can truly thrive going forward.
This is a very well trained cat as it uses the toilet just like humans. Nice set. Those tagine bowls will be repurposed as old style speakers soon enough.
Here's the bigger friends set I was missing! weeee! Looks lovely!
