JKS Restaurants has revealed the full line-up of traders joining Arcade Food Hall in London ahead of its launch on 22 April.
The venue in Tottenham Court Road originally opened in 2019 but is being overhauled by JKS after closing during the pandemic.
The 12,500 sq ft site will be open for walk-ins and bookings in the food hall. Guests will be able to order direct-to-table from each of the kitchens via QR codes on the menus.
Karam Sethi, founder of JKS, said: “We hope to raise the bar in terms of food hall experience in London, where the same attention to detail given to the food is also reflected in our drinks list, the art, music, and entertainment. We hope the versatility of the space ensures that Arcade Food Hall will suit all occasions.”
