Harden's survey result
Summary
Following the billion-pound rebirth of Bayswater’s landmark Whiteley building, a spacious live-fire restaurant open in autumn 2025 from chefs Hari Shetty (ex-Nobu) and Ori Geller (ex-Mr Porter), featuring an open kitchen, circular cocktail bar and outdoor terrace. The original Nela opened in Amsterdam four years ago, and has spawned a summer pop-up in Ibiza.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
