About Langan’s Brasserie

Step into the legacy of Langan’s Brasserie – where timeless glamour, bold personality, and culinary excellence collide. Originally opened in 1976 by Peter Langan, Sir Michael Caine, and Richard Shepherd, Langan’s became the legendary haunt of stars like Elizabeth Taylor, David Hockney, and Mick Jagger.

Now reimagined under the direction of Graziano Arricale and James Hitchen, we’re bringing back the spirit, energy, and elegance that defined an era — and we want passionate, driven individuals to be part of this journey.
