New York and London — Ralph Lauren will open a new restaurant as part of its renowned hospitality portfolio, The Polo Bar Ralph Lauren, in London. The restaurant will be located at 1 Hanover Square and is set to open in 2028.
Building on the international acclaim of The Polo Bar, which opened in New York in 2015 and quickly became a widely celebrated and iconic restaurant, the London location will showcase the brand’s signature charm and timeless elegance with a refined, yet welcoming dining experience.
“I have always been inspired by the special charm and heritage of the British way of living. There is an effortless grace that is rooted in centuries of tradition — a blend of timeless sophistication, understated ease and natural elegance. That perfect balance of refinement and warmth, and the comfort of sitting around a table enjoying a meal with loved ones, are what my restaurants have always meant to me,” says Ralph Lauren, executive chairman and chief creative officer, Ralph Lauren Corporation.
The Polo Bar Ralph Lauren builds on the company’s significant and longstanding presence in the United Kingdom, spanning more than 40 years. London is home to Ralph Lauren’s first international flagship store on prestigious New Bond Street that opened in 1981 — an iconic location that continues to stand as a cornerstone in Ralph Lauren’s global retail portfolio. Today, the company operates 12 stores in London, Ralph’s Coffee locations in New Bond Street and Brompton Cross, and sells its products in leading luxury wholesale doors.
Ralph Lauren’s global hospitality portfolio includes five restaurants (New York, Paris, Chicago, Milan and Chengdu) and more than 40 Ralph’s Coffee locations around the world.
Ralph Lauren Corporation is a global leader in the design, marketing and distribution of luxury lifestyle products whose brand names include Ralph Lauren, Ralph Lauren Collection, Ralph Lauren Purple Label, Polo Ralph Lauren, Double RL, Lauren Ralph Lauren, Polo Ralph Lauren Children and Chaps, among others.
