Restaurant group Dishoom is preparing to open a new establishment in Borough during the current year, bringing its Bombay-style cuisine to south London. The new location will be situated at 24 Southwark Street, within the well-known Hop Exchange building, a short distance from London Bridge station.
The chosen area is recognised as a significant culinary destination, with Borough Market nearby being a popular spot for food enthusiasts. Dishoom stated that the locality's reputation for quality food, produce, and hospitality makes it a suitable setting for their latest venture. The company confirmed that the new café will continue its tradition of highlighting Bombay's food, culture, history, and character, while also honouring the city's former Irani cafés that were central to daily life.
