26 Grains founder set to launch new venture at London food market

The founder of 26 Grains at Neal’s Yard is set to launch a new venture in the heart of a central London’s food market.

Restaurateur Alex Hely-Hutchinson is set to open Stoney Street later this month at Borough Market in Southwark.

Named after the street it will call home, Stoney Street will focus on seasonal dishes with a produce- and provenance-led cooking style.

Head chef Henrietta Inman will lead the restaurant’s kitchen, joining from Leyton’s neighbourhood restaurant Yardarm.

Founder Alex Hely-Hutchinson commented: “My team and I have had such an amazing journey since starting 26 Grains five years ago and have learnt so much along the way.

“Stoney Street will be a big sister to 26 Grains; slightly more refined, a longer menu, a coming of age. I can’t wait to welcome friends, family, and all our new locals to our new place.”
