You may have noticed that London is rather keen on having the biggest, best, lengthiest, and largest of things. We’ve got the tallest skyscraper in the UK, we’ve got the longest street market in Europe, and we even have the world’s oldest museum cafe. But we’ll soon have yet another shiny accolade to add to our ever-growing collection – because our competitive capital city will soon be home to Britain’s biggest Italian restaurant.
The big old restaurant in question comes courtesy of the Incipio Group and will be named Juno (in honour of the Roman queen of the gods). It will set up shop within the recently-revived Olympia exhibition centre – inside the Grade II listed National Hall next week.
Juno will span a whopping 11,500 square-feet, making room for 265 dining cover and a capacity of 500 overall. Designed to be a ‘house of celebration’, visitors can expect vibes as sensational as the food itself. There will be live music, a DJ booth, and plenty of entertainment to perfectly compliment a menu jam-packed with tastiness.
From long lunches to late night liaisons, there will be something utterly delicious to tuck into at Juno. We’re talking crab linguine, tomato and mozzarella paccheri, osso buco alla Milanese, and – of course – tiramisu. Juno will also boast a dedicated pizza counter with space for 10 diners to watch the chefs prepare some scrumptious pizza in their state-of-the-art oven.
Ed Devenport, Chief Executive of Incipio Group, said: “Juno is a significant opening for Incipio Group and one that we have approached with real ambition. We wanted to create a restaurant that could work in different ways throughout the day, from an aperitivo or long lunch to dinner and drinks, while bringing the scale and energy of a destination restaurant to West London. The combination of the food, the space and the events programme makes Juno a particularly exciting addition to our portfolio.”
Juno will open at the Olympia Exhibition Centre on October 16. Find out more and plan your visit here.
