Discover the best of London’s food scene at Shoreditch House

Introducing On The Back Deck, our new food residency that brings some of the city’s buzziest chefs and restaurants into the House
Friday 7 February 2025 By Emma McCarthy
If you want to add a bit of flavour to 2025, our House in east London is the place to go. Our new food residency, On The Back Deck, features takeovers from some of London’s most in-demand chefs and restaurants every month.


Kicking things off, we’re handing over to local legend Bistro Freddie. Our Shoreditch neighbour is renowned for its take on modern French gastronomy, bringing together the best in British produce and French wines. Head chef Alexandre Reynolds will be serving continental classics, including Steak Tartare, a Celeriac, Pear and Blue Cheese Salad, Cod Schnitzel with warm tartar sauce, and Cote de Boeuf with peppercorn sauce and bearnaise, washed down with an obligatory Kir Royale. Other must-haves on the menu include Chicken Liver Parfait, together with Bistro Freddie’s famous Guinness bread, as well as the Curried Cauliflower Pie for two to share. And make sure you order extra helpings of the mustard mayonnaise with chips.


To celebrate the launch, on Wednesday 5 February we were joined by a host of friends who were among the first to get a taste of the Back Deck’s best bites. Guests (which included Irish vocalist Maverick Sabre, fresh from his performance at Shoreditch House last week) also tried our newly debuted Back Deck natural wine list. Bistro Freddie’s menu is available from Tuesday to Saturday, 5.30pm to 11pm (occasionally on weekends if there’s an event scheduled on the Back Deck, we’ll offer a lunch service instead). Bookings can now be made via the Soho House app – but be quick, because Bistro Freddie will be hanging up its apron on Saturday 1 March.
We’ll be bringing you more news of our residencies very soon. For now, mark your diaries (and bring your appetite).
