Deliciously Ella to launch second restaurant
Cookery author Ella Mills, otherwise known as Deliciously Ella, and her husband Matthew Mills are to open a second restaurant.
The new venue, MaE, will open in October on Weighhouse Street just behind Bond Street station in London.
It will be twice the size of its sister venue, the MaE Deli in Marylebone.
On the launch of their second site, Ella said, "Our concept is all about sharing delicious, natural food with our customers, and showing everyone that healthy eating is about being vibrant and abundant, it's never about deprivation.
"We've never intended to do a big roll-out or turn our MaE sites in to a chain, but instead would like to offer different concepts and customer experiences in a handful of different sites. We fell in love with the space on Weighhouse Street the moment we saw it; and it's so unique to be in such a beautiful building, on a quiet street, yet only 100 yards from Oxford Street. We're so thrilled to now be able to share it with everyone."
Joanna Lea, retail director, London Estate at Grosvenor Britain & Ireland said: "MaE will be a great addition to north Mayfair, providing delicious, wholesome food to the visitors and local community. With the anticipated arrival of The Elizabeth Line at Bond Street station, Mayfair is adapting and attracting enterprising new businesses such as MaE to ensure it continues to flourish and thrive."
The Mae Deli offers an array of breakfast options, from smashed avocado on rye to coconut yoghurt pots with homemade fruit compote and granola. For lunch and dinner, the focus is on plant-based salads, stews and soups, with organic chicken and salmon offered as sides. Organic cold pressed juices, smoothies, coffees, hot drinks, treats and cakes are served all day. The whole menu is free from wheat, dairy and refined sugar.
