Benitos Hat announces details on fifth site


Benitos Hat, the ever growing Mexican kitchen and bar group, is to open its fifth restaurant on the former Piada site on St John Street, Farringdon, London in early November this year.

The 1,200sq ft, 40-cover site is the group’s first opening since securing £1.4m of investment from Calculus Capital for its expansion. It will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and will be the first site in the group to have a new food creation counter dedicated solely to servicing electronic orders. For the first time, customers will be able to pre-order for collection or delivery via a multitude of platforms: online via the website; the new in-store ordering screens; or by downloading the new Benito’s Hat mobile app, which is due to launch in tandem with the restaurant opening.


Its other four restaurants are located at Goodge Street, Covent Garden, Oxford Circus and Kings Cross, making the new site the first in the City of London.
