British Land continues to broaden its food and beverage offering at Broadgate with four new lettings at 155 Bishopsgate.

Neat Burger, a plant-based and planet friendly burger restaurant backed by Formula One star Lewis Hamilton, will open a 2,700 sq ft restaurant. Nest, a bar and restaurant run by Urban Pubs and Bars, will open a 3,300 sq ft bespoke space including a large outdoor terrace with steps that link to neighbouring Italian marketplace Eataly.

Black Sheep Coffee will open its second site at a British Land campus, taking 1,200 sq ft for its coffee, café and cocktail concept and will also run the reception café within 155 Bishopsgate. Hawaiian poké restaurant Honi Poké will take 500 sq ft.

These new brands will grow Broadgate’s diverse leisure and hospitality offering, joining a host of other high-quality brands like Bar Douro, the traditional Portuguese tapas restaurant; José Pizzaro, the contemporary Spanish small plates restaurant, and independent wine merchant Uncorked. In May 2021, Eataly opened its first UK site at 135 Bishopsgate, a 42,000 sq ft Italian food hall which includes restaurants, food stalls, drinking and dining space and a cookery school.

Alice Keown, Leasing Director – Restaurants and Leisure, British Land, said: “We’re excited that four fantastic brands are joining us at Broadgate. With combined lettings totalling over 7,000 sq ft of space, we’re pleased to see continued confidence in Broadgate as a world-class leisure destination.

“We’re committed to providing an exceptional experience to everyone who visits or works at our Broadgate campus. These new lettings, together with the recently launched restaurants at 100 Liverpool Street, will serve to further enhance Broadgate’s offering to customers.”

Eirik Holth, Co-Founder & Co-CEO, Black Sheep Coffee, said: “We’re thrilled to soon be opening the doors to our new flagship store in 155 Bishopsgate, Broadgate. We’ll be serving our full range of coffees, smoothies, and Norwegian waffles during the day as well as our signature afterwork range in the evening including coffee-based cocktails, craft beer and wine, and free popcorn of course! It’s been great working with the team at British Land who share our passion for creating exciting spaces for our customers.”

British Land is investing £1.5 billion over 10 years to transform Broadgate into a world-class destination for London. The campus hosts many of the world's leading financial, legal, technology and media companies, alongside some of London’s best restaurants, bars and retail including 90,000 sq ft of premium brands at 100 Liverpool Street. It is also home to four public squares, including a new 1.5 acre park in Exchange Square which is currently under construction and will quadruple the amount of green space at Broadgate.

British Land was advised by Davis Coffer Lyons and Nash Bond.

Sustainability is embedded throughout our business.
