Paul UK set to open second London restaurant at Tower 42


French artisan bakery and coffee shop operator, Paul UK is set to open its second London restaurant in Tower 42, the iconic City skyscraper, this September.

As well as the restaurant, Le Restaurant de Paul at Tower 42 will also house a bakery, hosting monthly bread-making masterclasses as well as the brand’s first destination wine bar.

Located on the ground level of the tower, the new 4,144 square-foot site will be the largest restaurant yet, with 93 covers inside and a further 40 outdoors.

The restaurant will be offering breakfast, brunch, afternoon tea and generous sharing platters. In the bakery, Paul’s signature selection of patisserie, viennoiserie, artisan breads, celebration cakes, gourmet salads and sandwiches will also be available with a range of hot and cold beverages.

Le Restaurant de Paul at Tower 42 will be open from 6.30am to 11pm Monday to Friday and closed at weekends.

Since Paul opened its first London Paul flagship shop in Covent Garden 2000, more than 32 shops have followed, Paul Marble Arch being the latest addition earlier this month. The first restaurant opened in Covent Garden this time last year.
