Who on Earth doesn’t know Gordon Ramsay? The British chef’s career has gone from telly shows like Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares to viral memes like ‘idiot sandwich’ and ‘where’s the lamb sauce?!’ and a new reality show. Not to mention, of course, his vast culinary empire.

Gordon Ramsay Restaurants – which launched in 1997 and now claims locations as far and wide as London, Singapore, South Korea, France and the US – has been awarded 17 Michelin stars throughout the years and currently holds eight. A few weeks ago, 12-seater restaurant Gordon Ramsay High gained its first star in this year’s Michelin Guide

Bread Street Kitchen & Bar at 22 Bishopsgate in the City is the latest venue to join the fold. Its upcoming launch marks a new milestone for the celebrity chef, as it will be his 100th restaurant. If you’re a Ramsay megafan, this may be old news. The new restaurant was spotted on his recently released TV show Being Gordon Ramsay.

The new all-day dining spot is located on the 59th floor of 22 Bishopsgate, which is currently the tallest skyscraper in the City of London (second only to the Shard, city-wide). It joins a roster of Ramsay restaurants already located in the tower, including Asian-inspired Lucky Cat and the aforementioned Gordon Ramsay High, plus Gordon Ramsay Academy – Europe’s highest cookery school. 

This latest opening coincides with the 15th anniversary year of the Bread Street Kitchen & Bar brand. A whopping 35 additional dishes have made their way onto the menu, as well as Bread Street’s first ever five-course tasting menu. Former Claridge’s chef Kamarl John, who’s worked closely with Ramsay for many years, will oversee the kitchen. Expect stuff like lobster benedict, Galician T-bone steak and Meyer lemon cheesecake.

For the early risers, the all-day dining menu starts from 6.30am on weekdays. Bread Street Kitchen & Bar at 22 Bishopsgate will also serve afternoon tea seven days a week.

Added to the culinary fare, the venue’s late night offering is extensive, with DJ sets on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights keeping the doors open as late as 3am – a welcome boost for the City’s late night scene. Plus, the venue will also be home to a sports bar with a 24-hour licence, which could come in handy for catching World Cup matches in the summer.

Bread Street Kitchen & Bar at 22 Bishopsgate officially opens its doors on May 6 2026. Find out more on the official website here.
