The Hoxton Grille Restaurant located within the Hoxton Hotel on Great Eastern Street has been taken over by The Soho House Group.
Just a stones' throw from Shoreditch House, the Grille - which caters to both the public and the Hotels guests - has been taken over as a going concern with, we understand, very few changes anticipated within the foreseeable future.
The Soho House Group, founded by Nick Jones, adds the Grille to it's ever-expanding portfolio. There are currently three private houses in London - Soho, Shoreditch and the Electric - and one in New York. The group also includes, among others, Babington House, The Electric Cafe, Cecconi's Mayfair and Cafe Boheme.
Plans are well underway for the opening of Soho House LA later this year and the launch of clubs in Miami, Chicago and Berlin in 2010. The group opened Cecconi's LA earlier this year.
The original Soho House, on Greek Street (Soho), was launched in 1995. The Soho House Group boasts the world's leading chain of member's clubs. It has approximately 15,000 members - 75 per cent of whom work in media-related industries. My membership however seems to be lost in the post.
