A one-of-a-kind Champagne bar in historic St Pancras Station. Bars and restaurants set in two World Heritage sites. And one of London’s first skyscraper restaurants. Searcys has long been known as a market leader for our bold concepts and enduring creative spirit.

And while we are always looking forward, we remain firmly rooted in our rich heritage. Founded in 1847, Searcys is the UK’s first restaurants and events catering company with a long-standing reputation for quality and innovation. Our story can be traced back to the vision of one man: Victorian entrepreneur and the Duke of Northumberland’s confectioner, John Searcy. He honed his skills catering at private parties for royalty and high society – and word soon spread of his talent. After 10 years of service to the Duke and Duchess, he set up his very own hospitality company in 1847. Before long, he became the most sought-after caterer in the area, renowned for his artistry and attention to detail.

Our bars and restaurants: St Pancras Brasserie and Champagne Bar, Helix restaurant and Iris bar at the Gherkin, Osteria and Bonfire at the Barbican, and The Pump Room in Bath, The Orangery at Blenheim Palace.
