Channel 4's 'First Dates' restaurant to relocate to new central London site

The restaurant known for featuring in Channel 4’s ‘First Dates’ is set to move to a central London location.

Hospitality operator D&D London has confirmed that the Paternoster Chophouse eatery will relocate to a new address near St Paul’s Cathedral in the heart of the city.

Situated at 60 Ludgate, the new restaurant is set to reopen at the end of the year after moving from its current Paternoster Square location.

D&D was advised on the acquisition of the site by Leo Feldman of Shelley Sandzer and the interior of the new Paternoster Chophouse is to be designed by Design LSM.

Des Gunewardena, CEO and co-founder of D&D London, commented: “Paternoster Chophouse is a very successful and popular restaurant, particularly given its association with First Dates.

“We are therefore pleased to have secured a site only a short walk away from the restaurant’s current location.

“We are also pleased that our landlord is Land Securities of whom we are existing tenants at Nova, 1 New Change and at Trinity in Leeds.”
