The Drinks Business

While London restaurants remain shuttered, we’ve rounded up 10 new openings we’re looking forward to this year, from seafood sanctum Manzi’s to the Batman-themed Park Row.
Park Row
DC Comics fans shouldn’t have to wait too much longer for the opening Park Row in Soho, which will reside on the former site of steakhouse Mash. Going big on Batman, the venue will take interiors inspiration from Bruce Wayne’s hood – Gotham City. Designed to offer diners an immersive experience, the entrance to the restaurant has been modelled on the Batcave and the venue includes a lounge bar called Pennyworth’s, a secret speakeasy, the Iceberg Lounge live entertainment space, and a Harley Quinn-inspired omakase counter dining experience.

“Loneliness is a luxury for people like me,” Karl Lagerfeld once said. Having spent the past 20 years of my life living in restaurants for work and pleasure, for a long time I agreed with the legendary designer. What could be more restorative than supper alone at home after five straight nights eating and partying my way the length and breadth of London?
The past 12 months have taught me to be careful what I wish for. I used to long to spend a Christmas free from family obligations, instead cycling through the empty avenues and cloistered squares of the City and West End. This year, my wish was finally granted – only for it to feel no different to the previous, shuttered-up two weeks. Every day now looks like Christmas Day in the deserted streets of central London. Except, like Narnia, it is always winter but never Christmas.
