D&D London People

D&D London is a group of diverse restaurants, bars and hotels based principally in London, but also with venues in Paris, New York and Tokyo. It was founded by Des Gunewardena and David Loewi (the eponymous D and D) in 2006, following a buyout of Conran Restaurants. Since then the company has become a vital player in London’s famous restaurant scene, owning some of the capital’s most celebrated restaurants, including Quaglino’s, Le Pont de la Tour, Bluebird and Coq d’Argent. Outside London the company has made their mark in the North by opening Crafthouse, Angelica, Issho and East 59th in Leeds, and most recently 20 Stories in Manchester.
