The chef-patron at seafood-focused Cornerstone in Hackney Wick will open his new venue on Commercial Street in an as yet unnamed location.
Announcing the news on Instagram, Brown says: “Very excited to finally announce the opening of my new oyster bar Pearly Queen …it’s felt like a long time coming.”
Brown, a protégé of Nathan Outlaw, opened Cornerstone - named after his favourite Arctic Monkeys song - in 2018. The restaurant won a Michelin star in 2021.
Pearly Queen is expected to open in November.
