Vegetarian restaurant Bubala will open its third London location in King’s Cross this April.
Bubala, which means ‘darling’ in Yiddish, was founded by Marc Summers as a Middle Eastern restaurant pop-up in Spitalfields in 2019 before opening its second permanent location in Soho in 2021.
The new King’s Cross location spans two floors and features the restaurant group’s first extensive outdoor terrace. With a total capacity of 120 covers, it boasts a six-metre-high entrance with a striking halo light installation, an open kitchen, and a backless bar.
Summers and executive chef Ben Rand have crafted a menu featuring dishes such as oyster mushroom skewers with tamari and coriander seeds, Spanakopita Börek, and charred cucumber tzatziki.
The drinks menu will feature bottled natural wines, UK-produced beers, and Gazoz house sodas.
Summers said: “We’re thrilled to bring Bubala to King’s Cross and to continue expanding our vision of accessible and exciting vegetarian Middle Eastern inspired cuisine. This new location is a perfect blend of the vibrant energy of the area and the welcoming atmosphere we’ve cultivated at our other restaurants. We can’t wait to share it with our guests.”
