New opening

Change is coming to Broadwick Soho as Monte Carlo's Beefbar has chosen the hotel as its new London home. 

Beefbar has been in London before, of course, having opened as Le Petit Beefbar in Chelsea. That closed in April this year, but they said at the time that they were looking for a new home, and they've found it in Soho.

The restaurant, which originated in Monaco (and has outposts across the world), will be taking over both the ground floor bar and the lower-ground restaurant. Previously known as Dear Jackie (and Bar Jackie), it was originally named after the

This week, London's about to go mad for tiramisu, a popular pizza residency finds a permanent home, new grab & go sushi for Soho and more...

It's been just over two years since chef Florence Knight left Sessions Arts Club, the beautiful-looking restaurant that she helped launch in Clerkenwell. And now the chef is getting ready to make her return to the London dining scene. 

She'll be taking over the rooftop restaurant on the 11th floor of Nick Jones' St Clement hotel just off The Strand, called Lunette. If you thought the opening of Cafe Clement was a big deal, this is several leagues beyond that. 

Food-wise, they haven't told us

The path to London finally getting its first Time Out Market has been a convoluted one. The journey started in East London almost a decade ago, with years of groundwork in Spitalfields which came to nothing after Tower Hamlets Council wouldn't give planning permission and Time Out then flounced.

But now, nearly 10 years after it first mooted the idea, Time Out has confirmed that it will be opening one of its huge markets in London, this time in the heart of the West End. They've taken on the landmark 10 Piccadilly building with the aim of opening the doors there in 2028. For

One of the best paths towards opening a new restaurant is earning a name through residencies, with a recent great example being Hon's BBQ in Hackney Wick. Now, another former residency is making the jump as Doctor Dough Pizza gets ready to open in Chiswick. 

Originally opening as a stall in Hammersmith and since as a residency in Brentford, Sonay Ali (Doctor Dough himself) is opening on Devonshire Road. There, he'll be serving the pizza he's been developing for years. Ali has been

Whatever chef Sertaç Dirik was going to do as a follow-up to his tenure at his family's restaurant Mangal II was always going to be the kind of place to get us excited. And now we know exactly what he's planning. He's opening KID and, crucially, he's chosen a seriously impressive partner to get into bed with, David Carter. Carter, you'll probably know best as the man behind such massive hits as Borough's Oma and Agora, along with Smokestak.

This will be Sertaç's first solo venture, and it's going to see him explore the

As the saying goes, when one door closes, another opens. For this story, it's more a case of the same door, just a different restaurant behind it. The door in question is at 10 Greek Street, where just a few weeks ago we learned that the restaurant there was closing. Fast forward three weeks and we can now reveal that this space is going to be the third restaurant for Portuguese group Bar Douro.

The new opening is like a 10th birthday celebration for the group founded by

A few weeks back, we found out that one of our local restaurants, Prawn on the Lawn, was closing after 13 years in London (and nine years in that particular location). The last time that site was vacated (when chicken restaurant LeCoq closed), it took four months before we knew what would be taking its place. But things have been moving much quicker this time around. 

Apparently, according to estate agent ...

London's food scene is having a bit of a thing for frozen yoghurt right now. We've already had the LA company Go Greek Yogurt opening up to huge queues on South Moulton Street. And now the next viral launch looks like it'll be Australia's Yo-Chi, in Notting Hill.

We'll admit, we'd never heard of it, but we could see fans on social media going completely crazy at the thought of being able to get this particular brand of fro yo in London. If you are also in the dark about why this is

Only last month, Bleecker was voted top of the World's 101 Best Burger restaurants, and it's hard to disagree. We've long felt that they make some of the very best burgers in town, and that's with extremely strong competition these days. 

If you still haven't had a chance to try them and you're in North London, a brand new opportunity is coming your way as Bleecker are coming to Camden, right inside the market.

It's their first-ever opening in North London and also their tenth site in London overall. It also means that if you're as far away as Holloway, Highgate or

Here's a complete guide to all the new London restaurants that have opened...

August can be one of the quietest months for new openings in London, what with holidays and everyone gearing up for the big autumn push next month. But there are still a fair few intriguing new restaurants coming your way in the month ahead. 

Mayfair isn't short of places to empty your wallet on a spendy steak, so it'll be interesting to see what new restaurant Cordelia's Mayfair brings to the table. The steakhouse has taken over the old L'atelier Robuchon restaurant site on Clarges Street, where they say they're bringing the theatre of live fire cooking to W1.

Carnivores will be well served by a menu that focuses on British cuts, all of which will have been aged in-house. But should you wish to wander the globe for your steak supper, they'll also serve up Galician beef and Finnish Sashi as well as (and this is a new

They only just announced that the original Milk Beach is transforming into a wine bar.Now the same team is opening a new place in Soho. This time, they're joining the handroll craze that seems to be everywhere right now, although there are more than just handrolls on the menu here.  

The new place is Saltwater, a new takeaway sushi place on Berwick Street. The key difference here is that
