Bill Granger secures third London restaurant premises
Australian restaurant Granger & Co has secured its third London site.
It is in King's Cross, a 2,500 square foot restaurant site in restored industrial dwellings known as the Stanley Building, at 7 St Pancras Square.
The new site adds to their existing London sites in Clerkenwell and Notting Hill. The third outlet, not far from Google, will be opening in late spring. The 86-cover restaurant will offer all-day dining and take-out coffee.
Bill Granger also operates restaurants worldwide in Tokyo, Honolulu and Seoul.

Bills Bondi at 79 Hall Street, Bondi was the recent new addition to his stable of restaurants around the world.
Bill Granger got his training at the iconic La Passion du Fruit on Paddington's Oxford Street after hailing from Melbourne.
The La Passion proprietors Chrissie Juillet and Jean-Claude Wane had that communal sense of a family kitchen table interaction at the cafe, which Granger replicated when he opened the original Bills in the Sydney suburb of Darlinghurst in 1993, when he was 22.
