Following the huge success of our Soho restaurant, Hoppers will be launching its second, larger site on St. Christopher’s Place, Marylebone, this Autumn. The restaurant will accommodate 85 guests across two floors with an additional 16 seats available on an outside terrace.
Inspired by the roadside shacks of Sri Lanka and Tamil Nadu, the menu will feature a number of signature dishes, as well as dishes created exclusively for the new restaurant, such as ‘Jaffna Beef Rib Fry’ and ‘Tuna and Tapioca Cutlets with Avocado Sambol’, and new larger sharing dishes and a daily changing lunchtime Rice and Kari plate.
