New opening

A few weeks ago, we got the news that French brasserie Marceline had closed the doors of its floating restaurant in Canary Wharf. That building was empty for a long time before Marceline took it on, but it's not staying empty this time around as there's already a replacement lined up, Tattu. 

This will be the second Tattu in London, following the first on Tottenham Court Road, and it's a restaurant that originates in Manchester. The same group behind it has only just opened

Here's a complete guide to all the new London restaurants that have opened...

All the latest news on every upcoming London restaurant that's going to be opening in the capital. The only Coming Soon list you need.

Malika Green and Paschelle Brown have been running All Roads as sold-out supperclubs for three years. That's along with working a wide variety of restaurants, including Patty & Bun, Daddy Bao, Chotto Matte, Burger & Beyond, Soho House, Lai Rai and lots more besides. And now they're taking the next step and launching All Roads as a permanent restaurant in Brixton. 

The menu at All Roads will continue the style of their supperclubs - comfort food that's inspired by their shared Caribbean heritage, as well as British, European and Southern American influences. So you'll find

We recently wrote about what's coming to the Arcade food hall in Covent Garden, but while most of those have already appeared elsewhere, there's one very interesting new addition that we can now exclusively reveal. Zylia is going to be a standalone taverna bringing together the best of Greek and Cypriot cuisine. 

It's headed up by two people, who each represent the two cuisines. On the Greek side, and Athens-born, is ex-Kiln Head Chef and the co-owner

They already own two dim sum restaurants in Wimbledon and Ealing as well as Tao Tao Ju in Chinatown, but now the folks behind the Good Fortune Club are coming into the centre of town with a hot new prospect.

Banquet 88 is being described as "a premium Cantonese dining experience". What that means is that it'll be just as good a spot to host business clients as to have one of those epic family dim sum lunches on the weekend. Think big tables, big menus, and a whole load of dim sum to choose from.

They're promising Cantonese classics like whole Peking duck, roast suckling

Pizzas might be having their time in the sun right now, but London has plenty of room for more smash burgers, it seems. Junk Burger are already gearing up for their third launch in London, this time inside Spitalfields Market. 

The smash burger restaurant originated in Paris (not to be confused with that other Parisian smash burger joint, Dumbo) before opening in Soho first and then Marylebone, just off Oxford Street. This third restaurant hasn't been officially announced at the time of writing, but a big hoarding outside the restaurant in Spitalfields rather gives the game away.

For a while, we've been waiting for an official announcement on the latest Arcade food hall, and now we finally have it. And it's all opening sooner than you might think. 

The food hall is taking over what used to be a particularly large TGI Friday's site in Covent Garden. It's a big corner site opposite the local Nando's, and while it's 12,500 sq ft and seats 385, it's still going to make this the smaller of the three Arcades.

Inside the new Arcade, there will be seven new food spaces, with those announced so far being:

A full 135 years after their first cookie store opened in Chicago, followed by a slew of Paris openings in the 80s onwards, the Chicago/Paris chain Laura Todd is finally getting around to opening their first London store.

Gloucester Road tube station is the site they've chosen for their entry into the London bakery scene and they'll be opening in the actual listed station building itself.

If you haven't tried their cookies in France or Belgium before, then this is rather an upmarket offering with raw sugar, free range eggs, Patissier butter from Normandie, traditional

This week, there's a new Japanese handroll restaurant in Soho with a top chef behind it, Jikoni comes to Stratford and more...

One of London's best pizzerias is growing, and this time they're getting into the current slice trend. Dough Hands' latest residency is at All My Friends in Hackney, and alongside their main pizzas, they'll be selling them by the XL slice. 

Run by chef Hannah Drye, you'll be able to order multiple pizzas by the slice here, so if you've ever wanted to try as many of her pizzas as possible, this is the place. Pizzas promised for the menu include the Tomato pie with anchovy, stracciatella & green sauce, Garlic sausage & pistachio pesto, Lamiri harissa aubergine & salted

They may have been the subject of much frenzied conversation on TikTok relating to what the girls of North London are doing on a Saturday, but Jolene have also been busy preparing for their first central London opening. Jolene Bridle Lane might sound more like a bakery out in the sticks, but it's actually right in the heart of Soho.

They're setting up shop inside streetwear company The Aries' flagship store, where their cafe will serve up coffee, sarnies

After nearly four years, Bar Des Pres is on the move. It's staying within Mayfair, though, just moving from Albemarle Street to South Audley Street. 

Taking over the space that was once Socca, this gives Cyril Lignac's restaurant a light-filled corner space. If you went to Socca in the past, you'll see that they've also dramatically changed the room, adding a large counter seating area (which was always one of the highlights of the Albemarle Street location). Meanwhile, the back area of the restaurant, which was always a tricky space to fill given that the main restaurant was

Every part of town has one, a restaurant site that nobody seems to be able to make work until someone comes along with something singular enough to break the curse. But it can be done. In our own neck of the woods, Islington, the fabulous Tofu Vegan successfully turned a restaurant blackspot into a thriving business.

In the West End, one such restaurant doom spot would definitely be 8-9 Market Place. Since we've been doing Hot Dinners, we've seen a slew of restaurants come and go. The most recent, Carmel, didn't even make it to the one-year anniversary.

So there's a lot

Early last year, Miller Prada left Humo somewhat unexpectedly and the restaurant somewhat struggled since, eventually losing its Michelin star earlier this year. Now the same group is getting ready to relaunch the restaurant as Igni, this time led by ex-Cycene chef Theo Clench. Clench was responsible for getting Cycene its Michelin star, so he'll definitely be looking to get one for Igni too.  

It doesn't sound like there will be much change to the room itself. Humo was a beautiful restaurant dominated by a long kitchen counter with lots of fire-led cooking and it sounds like that
