Operations

The company operates 18 restaurants in the UK.

This will be the fifth London site for the Australian chef.

The company will invest over £9.2 million to raise hourly rates amidst sector-wide labour shortages.

The move is expected to create 1,000 jobs and 4,000 over the next three years.

It also has plans to grow in Edinburgh in the next few years.

It will start with one in London’s High Holborn this quarter.

The branch features a drive-thru lane made from recycled tyres, wall art made from used coffee beans, and kerb stones made from recycled plastic bottles.

The move is part of the chain’s strategy in developing relationships with leisure venues.

It will have seating for 46 diners along with ‘grab and go’ options.

The location aims to showcase ‘takeaway classics' that founder Julian Denis and chef Harry Fox grew up with.

Digital continues to be the main driver of the business, the company said.

The concept is the brainchild of Dayashankar Sharma, the executive chef behind fine-dining Indian restaurant Heritage Dulwich.

Revenues at the restaurants it has opened this year are “far more” than the chain had expected.
