Set to launch next month, The 3,000 sq ft restaurant will be situated just off the high street on Circus Road and will seat 80 in the main dining room.
There will also be an eight-cover standalone bar and a covered outdoor terrace for 16 guests.
The new site will be in keeping with the warm and familiar ‘home away from home’ aesthetic of the Belgravia original, which launched in 1982.
Billed as having a contemporary feel, the new space will feature two ‘ornate’ chandeliers and a traditional wooden and marble topped bar.
The decor will ‘continue to celebrate Motcombs love for art’, with a collection of paintings displayed throughout the new restaurant.
Head chef of Motcombs Belgravia Veronica Pestana, who has worked with Motcombs Belgravia for over 10 years, will oversee the menu development and opening of St John’s Wood.
Open from breakfast through to dinner, the menu will reflect the restaurant’s traditional heritage, ‘celebrating classic British, European and Asian favourites’ that are ‘prepared with carefully sourced seasonal ingredients’.
Additionally, there will be a New York-style pizza menu that will be exclusive to Motcombs St John’s Wood.
“After more than 40 years in Belgravia, we are delighted to be opening the doors to our second restaurant in St John’s Wood,” says owner Ross Anderson.
“We hope to become another local favourite in our new north London neighbourhood, offering the same warm and familiar charm. Whether you are visiting for breakfast, afternoon cocktails or a celebratory dinner, Motcombs is a place for everyone and we look forward to welcoming you through our St John’s Wood doors.”
