With outlets in Richmond, Soho and South Kensington, independent London-based premium casual restaurant group, Muriel’s Kitchen, will now enter the grab-and-go market with its first brand extension – MK by Muriel’s Kitchen.
Opening on Putney High Street this July, MK by Muriel’s Kitchen is a quick service, licensed variation of the brand offering a range of freshly prepared healthy dishes, available to take away from breakfast to dinner, at an affordable price.
The curated menu focuses on quality, premium and seasonal ingredients, prepared daily using authentic recipes. Breakfast will include tartlets made with Clarence Court eggs; a selection of fresh pastries; breakfast pots such as Coconut, Chia and Quinoa as well as Bircher Muesli. For lunch and dinner, expect a range of seasonally changing soups, healthy protein pots, sandwiches and fresh salads. Signature dishes will include Muriel’s Beef Lasagne, Nana’s recipe Fish Pie and handmade Scotch Eggs. Average spend per head for lunch is expected to be £6.50.
The menu will further incorporate a variety of cold press juices, artisan teas from Good & Proper Tea Company and premium coffees including cold brew coffee from Point Blank. A hand-selected range of alcoholic drinks from small batch suppliers will also be on offer, including seasonally changing beers from craft brewers, pre-mixed cocktails and alternating wines available on-tap and to take-away in wine ‘bagnums’.
Sam Miller, co-founder of Muriel’s Kitchen says, “We’re delighted to be opening our first grab-and-go outlet in Putney, offering customers home-cooked, healthy and seasonal cuisine to take-away. MK by Muriel’s Kitchen will aim to be a community hub, delivering something for everyone from healthy to indulgent items throughout the day. We have ambitious plans to open a further five sites by 2017.”
The 1,000 square foot site will be stylistically similar to the restaurants with shelved units, blackboards, Mosaic Del Sur tiled flooring and a marble serving counter. Oak counters will run alongside the windows providing 15 covers, with a further two benches located outside.
Muriel’s Kitchen was founded in 2011 by husband and wife team Sam and Charlotte Miller. Charlotte was inspired by her desire to re-create the food of her late grandmother Muriel and what came out of her 1950’s kitchen. The ethos behind the concept was to take inspiration from classically British family plates and give them a modern twist. They devised a menu serving a variety of dishes including healthy, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options using only the best British ingredients.
