Goddard & Gibbs (replacing Ace Hotel's Hoi Polloi) draws inspiration from the fishing villages and seaside towns along the East coast of England, and rather aptly specializes in British seafood - with a focus on ethical sourcing and local suppliers from around the country. Led by Head Chef Tom Moore (Ormer Mayfair), the restaurant offers a menu of crowd pleasing classics alongside an extensive raw bar. Served in a wood-panelled dining room which takes inspiration from days spent at the seaside.
Goddard & Gibbs also boasts a wine bar at the front of the space, overlooking Shoreditch High Street. The wines represent a mix of modern producers sitting alongside more celebrated regions, complimented by sharing plates. As a playful extension of the restaurant, the Hatch offers an easy way to order seafood and snacks to eat on the go.
