Head Chef

We started our business in Brighton, flipping burgers for friends’ parties from a marquee. Everyone we knew loved a burger, but nobody was serving them the way we liked them – cooked simply with a focus on incredible, well-aged, grass-fed British beef.

We’ve now grown our estate to over 20 restaurants in London, Cambridge and Reading, and plan to open another nine by December 2018. We have extremely high standards and we will never compromise on the quality of our food or the friendliness of our service. We develop our people and we look after each other.

That’s the Honest way.

Our People

Personality – Be yourself; tattoos are cool; your hairstyle is yours, not ours. Basically we don’t want to change who you are because we think the best hospitality comes from people who can be themselves and show customers their personality.

Kitchen ownership – At Honest we value old school hospitality above all else. All our senior chefs are obsessed about quality freshly prepared food which is why we have our own central kitchen where our food is delivered from daily. Take a look at our Trip Advisor reviews.

Ambition – Want to open your own restaurant one day? We love that, it’s in our DNA. Want to develop your career? We’re opening 10 sites a year so there will be loads of opportunity.

Business Acumen – Creative, tenacious and savvy managers who are always looking for opportunities to grow their restaurant.
