Super 8 Restaurants completes on Soho site
Eater London reported back in January that the group - which also operates Kiln and Smoking Goat - was hoping to launch a permanent Brat restaurant in Soho following the success of the original Brat restaurant in Shoreditch and its pandemic-born pop-up in London Fields.
BigHospitality understands that the large, two-storey site will not be called Brat, although the offer will be of a similar style and feature a number of the dishes that made Brat famous, not least its grilled turbot.
Parry launched Brat in 2018, backed by Super 8 Restaurants’ Ben Chapman and Brian Hannon, in a former strip club.
Named after the colloquial term for ‘turbot’, the restaurant won a Michelin star less than one year after launch.
The restaurant is focused on large cuts of meat and whole fish grilled over wood, with supporting dishes including smoked cod’s roe; grilled peas; oysters roasted with seaweed; and asparagus with fresh cheese; and Basque-style cheesecake.
The original Brat is currently 7th on BigHospitality’s list of the top 100 places to eat in the UK and also features on the World’s 50 Best Restaurants 51-100 list.
