Lyle’s – the much-loved Shoreditch fine dining restaurant – will be closing later this month.
After a decade in business, it’ll be shutting up shop on May 18, with founder James Lowe breaking the news on Instagram. ‘I couldn’t be prouder of everything that we’ve accomplished at Lyle’s over the last eleven years,’ he wrote.
Lowe continued: ‘I love what we’ve done, how we’ve grown, adapted and learned. I want to say an enormous thank you to all members of the team past and present, it’s been a privilege to have worked with so many brilliant people.’ Lyle’s was known for its commitment to sustainability and seasonality. ‘Lyle’s has also given me the opportunity to work with some of the best fishermen, artisanal producers and farmers in the UK,’ added Lowe. ‘To evolve our food alongside them has been a journey that’s kept me inspired year after year. I’m looking forward to what comes next’.
We went back to Lyle’s last summer and found the restaurant as fabulous as ever, giving it a five star review and heralding it as ‘an icon of the new wave of British dining greats’. We will miss it.
Before opening Lyle’s in 2014, Lowe was head chef at St John Bread & Wine. Lyle’s won its Michelin star in 2015 and retained it for the following decade.
Lyle’s last service will be lunch on May 18.
