New Middle Eastern restaurant to open second site in Soho

Following a string of successful pop ups and supper clubs Bubala, will open its second eatery on Poland Street, Soho by April 2022.

The restaurant will hold 50 covers, including an eight seat counter-style bar, all with views of the open kitchen.

Signature dishes including, Halloumi with black seed honey and Confit potato latkes with toum and Aleppo chilli, will be present, while new creations, many of which will be grilled on the restaurants’ yakitori grill, including Hispi cabbage with mandarin and ras el hanout ponzu will also feature.

The drinks menu will feature wine on tap, as well as bottled natural wines, UK produced beers and Gazoz house sodas, a homemade seltzer combined with natural, locally sourced fruits, flowers, spices, herbs and syrups.

Commenting on the upcoming launch, founder Marc Summers said: “The past two years have been unimaginably hard for our entire industry, so I feel incredibly lucky to have one site, let alone to be opening a second.

“It’s always been a long-term goal for Bubala to grow, but it’s a step that I wanted to take carefully and one that I didn’t want to rush. I feel like we’ve got the best possible team now and the site feels perfect. I just can’t wait to open and bring a bit of Bubala to central London.”
