The 8 best new London restaurant openings in August 2025
If this month's new openings are anything to go by, London remains in the pocket of Big Pizza. This August also sees the return of one of east London's most legendary pubs in a brand new (somewhat classier guise), as well as a beefy new brewery for Walthamstow. The best new London restaurants opening in August 2025 1. The big ticket Spanish spot Legado, Shoreditch Founder of Mayfair's turbo tapas joint Sabor, Nieves Barragán Mohacho, is set to open her second restaurant in league with the all-conquering JKS Restaurants. Legado – which translates to 'Legacy' – will serve up lesser-known regional Spanish dishes, and will also be home to La Taberna, an all-day bar and terrace where you can pick up pintxos, cava and sherry. 1C Montacute Yards, 185-186 Shoreditch High Street, E1 6HU Opening date: August 28 2. The return of an indie sleaze icon The Macbeth, Hoxton This pub will be extremely familiar to anyone who got drunk in London about 15 years ago. Formerly the site of grotty gigs, indie discos and nu-rave raves, the Macbeth is reopening as a Portuguese gastropub with Jamie Allan - formerly of Four Legs, who opened Finsbury Park's The Plimsoll and Tollington's – in charge alongside his good pal Patrick Nolan. 70 Hoxton Street, Hoxton, N1 6LP Opening date: August 13 3. Pizza! Bad Boy Pizzeria, Bethnal Green Another day, another London pizza parlour opens. After years of shifting their award-winning slices at Bad Boy Pizza Society pop-ups at Seven Dials Market, Vinegar Yard and the Railway Tavern in Tulse HIll, they have finally found their forever home in Bethnal Green. You'll be able to score everything from single slices to full pies, from NY-style to Sicilian squares, as well as sides such as chicken vodka parms, and deep fried burrata in spicy marinara. The drinks menu will feature BBPS's brand new house lager as well as wines, local beers and shots. 419 Bethnal Green Road, Bethnal Green, E2 0AN Opening date: August 8 4. The big brewery 40ft Blackhorse Road, Walthamstow Say a jaunty little 'cheers!' to the Blackhorse Beer Mile's new arrival; Dalston's 40ft Brewery is opening up a brand new mega space. With 100 seats inside, and another 100 outside, the brewery will also have a dog park, food pop-ups and a regular roster of comedy nights, DJ sets and daytime events for kids. 40ft Blackhorse Road opens August 8 and a crowdfunder is running until the day before, which is offering a double money drinks credit to order to help support the new venue. Unit 10, Lockwood Way, Walthamstow, E17 5RB Opening date: August 8 5. More pizza! Berberè, Marylebone Alright, this is getting silly. There's yet more new pizza in London, this time courtesy of Berberè, sourdough specialists who already have locations in Clapham, Kentish Town and on Tottenham Court Road, as well as a whole host of spots in Italy (which is how you know they're good). Founded in Bologna in 2010, they've been voted 'world's 6th best artisan pizzeria' by 50 Top Pizza. Booze comes from wine guys Passione Vino, and beer pros Signature Brew. 50 James Street, Marylebone, W1U 1HB Opening date: August 4 6. The Michelin-star adjacent bar The Clove Club, Shoreditch Double Michelin star champ The Clove Club is getting into the holiday spirit by (re)launching its bar for the summer. You used to be able to swing by the front of the restaurant for snacky bits and drinks, so we're happy to see the return of this more affordable way to enjoy Isaac McHale's immaculate food, even if it is only for a few weeks. Expect warm crab dumplings, fish pakoras, chicken kebabs, Scottish tacos (pigs blood and buckwheat pancakes with pork jowl) and parmesan fries with Manjimup truffle. Shoreditch Town Hall, 380 Old Street, Shoreditch, EC1V 9LT Opening date: Open now 7. Something for the weekend Dante, Islington A little bit French, a little bit Italian, Dante is a new Friday-to-Sunday pop-up kitchen from chef pals Louis Korovilas and Taylor Sessegnon-Shakespeare, who met while working at London's longest running Michelin star restaurant, Pied A Terre in Fitzrovia. The menu includes broadbean orzotto with glazed chicken wing, aubergine scarpece with clam bagna cauda and crispy palourde clams, beef carpaccio with oyster mayonnaise and baby artichokes and whole sucking pig belly for two. Islington Arts Club, 235 Upper Street, N1 1RU Opening date: August 1 8. Even more pizza! Dough Hands x Toklas Bakery, Temple Dough Hands makes the finest pizza in London and now you don't need to head to London Fields or Nunhead to try it. Toklas Bakery is hosting a two night pop-up collab with Dough Hands founder Hannah Drye on August 5 and 6, from 6pm until they sell out. There'll be white pie with Calabrian chilli and hot honey on offer, as well as pepperoni and pickled peppers, with wedge Caesar as well as tomato salad with tahini and salted ricotta on the side. Toklas will be providing passionfruit and coconut ice cream sandwiches for pudding. On August 7 Toklas Bakery will also see a pop-up visit from Stoke Newington's Sonora Taquería, with tacos, tortillas and tequila. 9 Surrey Street, Temple, WC2R 2ND

How to make this classic New York deli-style mac and cheese at home
Mac and cheese is one of the most popular dishes on the winter menu at Ruben's Deli in Armadale, in Melbourne's south-east. 'It's not a family recipe and there's no origin story – but as a New York-inspired deli, it felt like a no-brainer to have on the menu,' says co-owner Amanda Ruben. 'We trialled a version, refined it, and it's since become a local favourite.' While the deli specialises in hefty NY-style sandwiches such as the Reuben, made with house-smoked pastrami, some customers come by just for the mac and cheese, sometimes pairing it with the deli's signature iceberg wedge salad or oversized beef ribs. 'We put it out warm on the counter at lunchtime, and it usually sells out within the hour,' says Ruben. She uses a mix of cheeses, which add a richness and depth you don't typically get from standard mac and cheese, she says. 'Each one brings its own character.' It can be made even more special by adding some red Leicester cheese to the mix, which gives a nutty flavour and vibrant colour. If you don't have time to make your own breadcrumbs, good-quality store-bought crumbs are fine. But either way, don't skimp on the crumb topping!

Pellegrino 2000, Clam Bar and Neptune's Grotto team set to open Chinese-inspired restaurant in Sydney
The gun trio behind some of Sydney's best restaurants (and my personal fave spots) – including Neptune's Grotto (winner of Time Out Sydney's Restaurant of the Year 2025), NY-style steakhouse Clam Bar, Pellegrino 2000 (Taylor Swift's go-to), and the now-closed French Bistrot 916 – is set to open a Chinese -inspired restaurant in Sydney this winter. Admittedly, this wasn't on our bingo card for the year, but considering every venue chefs Dan Pepperell and Mikey Clift and sommelier Andy Tyson open turns to dining gold, we're chuffed. Here's hoping there will be lazy Susans, too. Focusing on Cantonese and Sichuan flavours, the restaurant – which will be called Grandfather's – will open in Martin Place, taking over Thai stalwart Long Chim 's former digs. Pepperell and Clift – with Clift having spent time on the pans at Spice Temple – are currently on the hunt for a head chef to steer the 120-seat venue, their most ambitious yet. Grandfather's will join other recent(ish) high-profile Chinese restaurant openings, including Golden Century at Crown Sydney, Neil Perry's Song Bird in Double Bay, and The Royal Palace Seafood Restaurant. As for the menu and opening date, we'll keep you posted.
