In November 2018, Provisioners will open in Tower Bridge; the new restaurant in boutique-style hotel The Dixon. A relaxed, stylish and welcoming space, Provisioners is the latest project by Clive Watson of Blixen, Lorne and previously of Village East, The Garrison and Riding House Café.
In partnership with The Dixon hotel, Provisioners takes references from SE1 and the area’s cultural heritage. Designed by twenty2degrees, the interior is inspired by modern design movements, artists’ homes and European cafe culture. With a nod to the Bauhaus era, functional design creates a casual and inviting space where all visitors will feel at home.
Named after John Dixon Butler – the architect who originally constructed the building in 1905 as a Magistrates’ Court and police station – the hotel showcases a passion for art throughout the guest rooms and public spaces. Redeveloped by Dominvs Group, all areas of The Dixon will be transformed in uncompromising style that cleverly walks the line between old and new.
A varied, accessible European all-day menu will provide fresh, uncomplicated and comforting food available throughout the day and well into the evening. Versatile with two distinct offerings, Provisioners’ adjoining cafe will project an Italian vibe, with signature coffee blends roasted in-house, cakes and toasted sandwiches by day, before turning into a wine, aperitivo and charcuterie bar in the evening.
Clive Watson comments: “Provisioners will be a place where you have everything you need to help you relax, unwind and refuel, whatever your mood. We’d like to be a bustling hotel and neighbourhood restaurant offering intuitive and natural hospitality tailored to each guest’s needs – we are all different after all; I hope you’ll want to eat, drink and hang out here all the time.”
The Dixon will join Autograph Collection Hotels; Dominvs Group’s first Marriott branded property. Jay Ahluwalia – Dominvs Director – comments: “We are delighted to be working with Clive Watson on the launch of Provisioners, as we move towards introducing this vibrant, eclectic and varied offering to the area.”
