Tom Kerridge to open The Butcher’s Tap & Grill in Chelsea
Celebrated Chef Tom Kerridge is delighted to confirm the opening of The Butcher’s Tap & Grill on Tyron Street, Chelsea towards the end of this year.
Following the success of The Butcher’s Tap & Grill in Marlow which opened in 2017, the opportunity to lease a 3,600 square ft, two-storey Victorian property just around the corner from Sloane Square was too good to turn down. The 100 cover pub will predominately be wet led, with a British centric menu of butcher-cuts, burgers, hot dogs and small bites all sourced from carefully selected producers including 28-day dry aged, grass-fed beef from HG Walter and Dovecote Farm, Blythburgh pork, Longland Farm Duck and Suffolk Texel lamb. A rotating roster of drinks will include Marlow favourite Rebellion Lager alongside some local London craft beers. The wine list has been carefully chosen by Gavin Hills from The Hand & Flowers and will include wines by the glass, predominantly new world.
The site, formally The Queen’s Head is currently in shell condition and will be completely re-designed by Tibbatts Abel, including a brand new bar and dining area, commercial kitchens, toilets and back of house areas. The pub will be on two levels with carefully designed areas for drinking, eating and celebrating. Reflecting the location and quality of its neighbours, the pub will feature a beautiful focal hardwood bar topped with zinc, handmade lighting, curated art, vintage flooring and British made decorative tiles. Comfortable booth seating in cracked olive and chestnut leather creates an inviting and welcoming space. A bespoke timber staircase leads to the basement level where the open plan kitchen will create a sense of theatre. Meat ageing fridges highlight the quality of produce used, which include the same suppliers to The Hand & Flowers and The Coach in Marlow.
Open for lunch all day and supper The Butcher’s Tap & Grill will serve a roast every Sunday and a takeaway service will offer classic burgers and hotdogs.
Tom Kerridge says;
“We are delighted to have secured such a prestigious location for our second Butcher’s Tap & Grill. The pub will be a spin off from the original, in that it is not a carbon copy of the Marlow pub, more emphasis will be placed on drinks and the bar in Chelsea and we will not offer a takeaway butcher’s service, but guests will be able to choose their cuts from the meat fridge. We very much want to be a local’s local, somewhere to pop in, have a pint, watch some sport have a bite and relax. We will also be dog friendly so well behaved four legged friends are very welcome too!”
The pub is due to open in late 2023.
