With head chef Kieran Hope at the helm, the new 2,100sq ft restaurant will cater for a total of 94 covers, including an outdoor terrace space.
Founded by Andy Jones in 2013, Andy will make his mark on Jones & Sons Angel, taking inspiration from the established Dalston site.

Commenting on the new restaurant signing, Angel Central, Matthew Barratt, Asset Manager at CBRE Global Investors, said: “Jones & Sons is a very exciting brand to welcome to Angel Central. The classic menu and weekend offer will appeal to our visitors. The brand reflects our vision for the proposed redevelopment and builds upon the dining offer whilst complementing the already strong retail and leisure line up.”
The 170,000 sq ft Angel Central benefits from an annual footfall of 10 million visitors and is ranked in the top 10 of London Retail Destinations*. Currently anchored by H&M, Angel Central’s retail line-up includes Muji, Rituals, Monsoon and Oasis, with the latter recently completing a significant refurbishment. In addition, Vue’s ten-screen cinema and the O2 Academy lead the leisure offer, which is complemented by a range of restaurants, such as Gourmet Burger Kitchen and Wagamama.
