1. Exhibition White City

White City, London

Housed in a retired Victorian engine house, Exhibition White City are reopening their doors after a three-month transformation to reveal a dynamic event space that seamlessly blends London’s rich design heritage with a sleek, ultramodern aesthetic. This striking venue is perfect for all types of events, from corporate gatherings to live music performances. While its stunning exterior captures attention, it's the thoughtfully designed interior that truly brings events to life.



himi london

2. HIMI

Soho, London

Described as a Neo-izakaya, HIMI feels like an izakaya through and through with maybe the minimal decor lending to the neo aspect. Headed by the team behind the omakase spot, Roji, HIMI offers traditional izakaya dishes with the finest British ingredients. Beautiful presentation, cosy izakaya atmosphere, and top-quality flavours. Book now to get your seats.



calong london

3. Cálong

Stoke Newington, London

When the long winter nights start to seem unbearably dreary and cold, warm up with unique Korean dishes with the likes of kimchi risotto or spicy seafood soup noodles, Jjampong, but made with seared pollock, mussel and courgette. Think seasonal, elevated Korean dishes but still simple, relaxed, and delicious. Once a popular pop-up, Cálong is opening its doors as the first solo venture from Chef Joo Won whose seven years as Head Chef at Galvin at Windows saw the awarding of a Michelin star. Cálong is a love letter to Joo Won's Korea blended with French and European cooking and plenty of wines.


Opening 21 February 2025.



kricket shoreditch

4. Kricket

Shoreditch, London

Popular contemporary Indian eatery Kricket launches in the East with a new location in Shoreditch. Kricket's unique dishes inspired by Indian flavours and culinary travels through the sub-continent have been wildly popular in each of the Kricket restaurants: Soho, Brixton, White City, and Canary Wharf. It was only a matter of time before Shoreditch was graced by their presence.


Opening March 2025.italic text



tamila king's cross

5. Tamila

King's Cross, London

The Tamil Prince team only recently opened casual eatery Tamila in Battersea but we have it on good authority that a second Tamila is opening in King's Cross... any day (we're really hoping it's open by January so we can warm up with rotis and curries). Like the sister Tamila in Battersea, we can expect more delicious and casual South Indian dishes like mutton curry dosa and paneer butter masala and we can't think of a better way to fend off the January blues.


Now open



la mome london

6. La Môme at The Berkeley

Knightsbridge, London

With two restaurants in Cannes and Monaco, the Berkeley Hotel will host the first London incarnation of brothers Ugo and Antoine Lecorché's glamorous La Môme. No Scandi minimalism here, expect signature classics and bold flavours of the South of France: huge crudo platters, rack of lamb with pine nuts, and fish of the day, all in elegant surroundings worthy of the Knightsbridge postcode.


Opening in January 2025.



voyage adam simmonds

7. Voyage with Adam Simmonds

King's Cross, London

Voyage with Adam Simmonds is set to be on a par with Simmonds' work at Danesfield House, with a Scandinavian-influenced menu to feature oysters with fermented apple and white asparagus and venison with ember-roasted beetroot, blackberry vinegar and thyme crumb. The Scandinavian influence is being taken into the fully redesigned dining room all set within The Megaro Hotel in King's Cross.


Now open



luna wine bar

8. Luna

Shad Thames, London

A wood-panelled, candlelit wine bar, bottle shop and restaurant is coming to the Thames Path. The small twenty-eight-seater venue (by the team behind Legare) promises to bring the classic comforts of a cosy London wine bar to one of the most spectacular spots along the river. The thought of drinking a biodynamic red while Tower Bridge twinkles in the background is getting us very, very hyped.


Opening in spring 2025.
