The Bar Journal

Clerknwell London is looking for an innovative, creative Chef, a professional who is well versed in running a kitchen efficiently and effectively. The nature of our business creates an unrivalled opportunity to deliver a menu that embodies the overall ethos of this exciting space…

We would like to create an all day dining offering and have the capability to change our restaurant personality throughout the day as we are open from 07:30 – 23:00 hours.

Whilst maintaining a menu of our staple plates that offer great food, we would like to add a blended modern creative menu of mixed food styles that plays to the unique space that we inhabit; delectable sharing plates, bar snacks, inviting main courses and where desserts are not an after thought but a perfect compliment to the meal… As a concept idea, Brasserie meets “Ottolenghi” (moreover Nopi), “Sushi Samba” or something similar and we would like to take inspiration from interesting global cuisine.
Intelligent health is an element that we would like to include in our menu and a Spa menu should be considered.

This is a tremendous opportunity to become part of a dynamic team and further your professional career with a unique and interesting proposition in one of London’s most exciting up and coming areas.

Introducing Clerkenwell London

Re-opened in July 2015, 155 Bar and Kitchen is a part of Clerkenwell London, a new space of 13,000 sq feet dedicated to enriching experiences through food and drink, music, art, culture and design.

Underneath one roof are:
Restaurant, which can seat 56 covers plus 10 at the bar
Retail Store
Spa
Wine Library with international offerings where we have events and tastings
Vinyl Lounge, which encourages coffee by day and cocktails by night
Coterie and other private dining areas
Piano Lounge – holding a range of different events and experiences both private and corporate

155 Bar and Kitchen provides excellent service from breakfast through to dinner complementing the store of superior quality, both in terms of produce and service.
The Bar and Kitchen works in tandem with our extensive wine department. We offer artisanal wines from both classic and emerging regions, filed by colour, origin and vintage. Although the resident sommeliers appreciate the old-world excellence of heritage-rich traditional appellations, they are always looking for the innovative and the new. Specially curated alongside our wines are craft beers and spirits with expertly made cocktails from our in house mixologists.

In the retail section we are a platform for small designer brands, eschewing mass production, and promoting the ‘slow movement’ of beautiful craftsmanship merged with contemporary design. We have hand-picked pieces which have diverse and intelligent stories behind them. We include: bespoke tailoring, furniture, lighting, fashion, jewellery, art, specially sourced vintage pieces, rare books, records, stationery, home wares and ceramics.

Clerkenwell London is a haven to those wishing to savour good coffee, food and wine, discover and appreciate beautiful products in a place where they can linger and enjoy for hours, while also offering a regular calendar of inspiring events and life-enhancing experiences. Unlike any other ‘concept store’ or design space in the UK, Clerkenwell London is a peerless and forward-thinking experience destination.
