OUR STORY
We’re Stephen, Ed, and Manu three friends on a mission to reinvent one of the world’s oldest and most beloved dishes. For the past eight years, we’ve been crafting innovative kebabs that blend tradition with a fresh, modern perspective.
Our journey began in unexpected places. Stephen and Ed first bonded over late night kebabs during their university days, while Ed and Manu crossed paths in the high pressure kitchens of Le Gavroche, where they honed their craft cooking two Michelin starred classical French cuisine. Despite their fine dining backgrounds, their hearts remained with the vibrant, smoky flavors of the Turkish, Lebanese, Persian, and South Asian kebabs they loved eating across London.
The vision was simple yet bold: apply the precision and principles of fine dining to the humble kebab, creating something entirely new. That meant sourcing world-class, seasonal British produce and experimenting with unconventional techniques to elevate every bite. We launched in Soho in 2016, committed to using phenomenal local ingredients year-round—even when winter made it tough. But our dedication paid off, and Londoners fell in love with what we were doing.
In 2019, we took our passion to the next level with Kebab Queen, our fine dining flagship concept. Here, we introduced a revolutionary style of service that brings guests closer than ever to both their food and the chefs preparing it.
Throughout it all, we’ve partnered with our friend Angus Buchanan of Buchanan Studio to design every space we inhabit. We believe that a great meal deserves an equally stunning setting—beautiful, modern interiors that are essential to the fun. Whether you’re here for our wines, our cocktails, or our food, our goal is simple: for you to have an unforgettable time.
