We are currently looking for staff for the opening of our newest restaurant and bar which will be located in Locke Aparthotel at Broken Wharf, planned to open early March 2020.

Locke at Broken Wharf is your new London City hotel base, and place to hang out on the banks of the River Thames. Complementing the South Bank's thriving cultural scene, you'll find a vibrant hive of smart co-working, artisanal coffee by day, and playful cocktails by night.

Deli Cat & Sons is modern British take on the traditional 19th Century New York deli, modern coffe bar and a buzzy cocktail bar. We will be serving a variety of different cocktails, ranging from classic cocktails to more modern creations. The bar will liaise quite closely with the restaurant and will need to be adaptable.

This coffee shop near Millennium Bridge sits within Locke at Broken Wharf's social and co-working spaces, where vibrant chatter and scents of freshly ground coffee flow through the building, just as the river flows outside.
