Just relaunched today is the new look Ape and Bird, having undergone a minor revamp (inside and out) and a new menu, courtesy of chef Alex Windebank. The new look is event more stripped back than before - they're calling the revamp a "defurbish" according to Chris Pople (who provided the photo above). We also note that the "by Polpo" makes the association to Russell Norman's other restaurants much more obvious.
As for the new menu, the most obvious change is the addition of a new pizza section, making good use of the newly installed pizza oven. You can get a preview of the full menu below (just click the image).
it's open for business now at 42 Shaftesbury Avenue London WC2H 8HJ. For more information, follow them on Twitter @ApeandBird.
