DTZ Investors and the team behind Michelin-starred restaurant Brat, are to bring Chef Tomos Parry to Soho for his new concept, Mountain.

The former Byron Burger at 16-18 Beak Street joins the chef’s award-winning portfolio; the one Michelin-starred Brat in Shoreditch and sister restaurant Climpson’s Arch in Hackney. Mountain will open the space later this year, taking inspiration from Tomos’ Welsh heritage with Spanish influence.

The two-floor unit, on the corner of Beak Street linking to Soho’s Golden Square, has been extensively renovated to deliver a bespoke layout for Mountain. The ground floor will boast a dedicated dining space, where dishes such as Carmarthen prawns, wood-grilled lamb chops, braised peas with cockles, and lobster caldereta will be served. A downstairs bar area, where customers will be met with a range of classic cocktails and the chance to witness the chefs in action, has also been incorporated.

Adam Robinson, partner at Robinson Webster, who represents the owner DTZ Investors, said: “Corner buildings always attract the best operators, which is why we have been able to secure one of the most talented, regarded, and exciting chefs in the UK. Mountain will be an amazing addition to the building and neighbourhood.”

Nick Weir, Joint Managing Partner at Shelley Sandzer, who acted for the tenant, commented: “The site Brian and his team have acquired is a great corner where Soho meets Carnaby, which required an operator to come up with a seriously compelling offer. That’s exactly what is being delivered from the team behind Brat. The former Byron on Beak Street offers Mountain the perfect platform to attract the huge concentration of office workers, tourists, and evening socialisers that visit Soho every day, and it’s a great coup for the area to add Tomos Parry to its immense line-up.”
