Roka Restaurants
Roka is a meeting place where food and drinks are shared with friends (ro) and heat, warmth and an all-embracing energy surround (ka). The principle cuisine is from the Robata grill, which originates from the fishermen of the northern coastal waters off Japan, who would cook the fish on the boats with different charcoals and share the bounty with one another using their oars. Having started back in 2004 in London the brand has grown to 4 sites within the English capital. We added ROKA Dubai as the first international location in early 2020 are now look forward to expanding into new markets in the Middle East. Luxury and world-renowned Japanese cuisine cooked over our famous robatayaki grill and served in all-embracing high-energy environment with personalised charismatic service is what our guests have been enjoying for almost 20 years with no sign of stopping!

Tortilla Mexican Grill Plc
Our burrito obsession started in San Francisco, where we grew up devouring foil-wrapped deliciousness from legendary spots like Taqueria Cancun, El Farolito, and Pancho Villa. These neighbourhood taquerias taught us what a proper burrito should be – a warm flour tortilla stuffed with authentic rice and beans, grilled meats, fresh salsas and guac, and Monterey Jack cheese - all the fixings to hit the spot. Landing in London in 2003, we searched high and low for authentic tacos and burritos. But nothing came close to the humble neighbourhood taquerias we grew up with. So we decided to bring a piece of San Francisco to the UK by making great Mexican food at home for our friends until they persuaded us to open our first Tortilla. These days, we’re bringing that California street food magic to your neighbourhood - the kind of taquerias we loved back home, with fresh ingredients, friendly vibes, and prices that won’t make you wince. Want to join our burrito revolution? Check out our vacancies: https://careers.tortilla.co.uk/

Boston Tea Party Cafes
Our purpose as a business is to Make Things Better, our spaces, our food & drink, but most importantly - our people and the communities in which we serve. Since for ever the British café has been an iconic institution, a place to celebrate individuality, innovation, community and participation. However over the last few decades they have been under attack by the chain invasions threatening the British high street with a deluge of boring corporate soullessness. Each of our cafes is designed to be a one off, a cherished local. We want to remain a café to be discovered, recommended and returned to. We do this not only by ensuring no two cafes look or feel the same, but by ensuring they have unique personalities, driven by our people. This is a place where you’re accepted for who you are. Classically British (despite the name) we’re on a mission to serve simply and well-prepared food and drinks made with great ingredients, skill and love. Ethically sourced, affordable, feel-good, great value, healthy and excellent quality - made onsite everyday. As we grow we are determined to get better (we call this scale vs soul) refusing to accept that you have to compromise our values, the stuff that really matters to us, as we expand. All of this we do because we want to be the epic soulful café chain we think the world needs. Like the sound of this and want to join the team? See our latest vacancies on our Leisure Jobs page:

Giggling Squid
Giggling Squid is all about food with personality, cooked with expertise and shared with generosity. At our heart is the spirit of Thai mealtimes - plentiful dishes, bold flavours and exotic ingredients - to be shared and enjoyed together. We started from a determination to do things differently. To be one of a kind and bring some Thai generosity to the UK. Back then, what was missing from the food scene was that true Thai feel – energetic, informal, adventurous, and truly welcoming. We believe food is to be celebrated and you don’t have to dress up to enjoy it. Relaxed, no standing on ceremony – it’s about having a good time, over something tasty. It’s important to us that everyone who walks through our doors feels as if they’re coming into our home. It’s our incredible people, from our skilled chefs to our welcoming front of house staff, and their shared generosity of spirit that lies behind every great guest experience. We now have a few more restaurants under our belt (49 to date) but the important stuff hasn’t changed since we started. We’re still as hungry as ever to give our guests a truly memorable experience, leaving full and happy!
