About Us

Brat Climpson's Arch is a dynamic and passionate neighbourhood restaurant serving seasonal wood-fired dishes in a unique courtyard space beneath the arches of London Fields. We place great importance on our relationships with suppliers and ensure staff are well informed about the produce we use. Located in the space where Chef Tomos Parry's independent cooking style first took shape, the restaurant reflects that same energy. Our menu and wine list change daily. Brat x Climpson's Arch is a friendly, enthusiastic restaurant that offers the chance to work alongside a passionate kitchen team, with some of the best produce in the UK, in a busy and supportive environment.
