D&D London to open
14 Hills in The City this November
Restaurants
D&D London announced that 14 Hills, its new
restaurant located on the 14th floor of 120
Fenchurch Street, will open this November.
The modern British restaurant will serve
an all-day menu created by Executive Chef
Thomas Piat and will be open from breakfast
and brunch through to lunch and dinner.
Occupying a space of c.9,200 square feet,
14 Hills is positioned below the public
roof garden that crowns Generali Real
Estate’s new office building, designed by
Eric Parry Architects. The restaurant will
not only have spectacular views of the
London skyline including the Thames, Tower
Bridge, Tower of London and The Shard but
also be planted with mature trees, shrubs
and several large pergolas, creating a lush
interior to complement the garden above.
Inspired by English terraces, roof gardens
and courtyards, the dining room will have
a canopy of evergreen plants and seasonal
climbers growing at its centre. Award winning
Robert Angell Design International is the
restaurant’s interior designer. The firm’s past
projects include restaurants and bars for The
Berkeley and Savoy hotels and more recently
the restaurant Wild Ink at Hudson Yards in
New York.
Thomas Piat was formerly Executive Chef at
Daniel Boulud’s Bar Boulud at the Mandarin
Oriental in Knightsbridge and, most recently,
at JOÍA par Hélène Darroze in Paris. Piat’s

menu will be modern British cooked with
French flair. He will oversee a comprehensive
set of menus that move from breakfasts and
business lunches to sophisticated dinners, as
well as Saturday brunches, Sunday roasts and
a fast-serve deli counter.
Piat’s kitchen will be complemented by
sommeliers who will curate a list of the grand
and not so grand, but always interesting wines.
14 Hills will also have a bar that puts cocktails
front and centre. The extensive selection will
make room for classics, signature serves and
modern interpretations of old favourites, all
to be paired with modern British bar snacks.
Many ingredients that the bar requires will be
crafted in-house.
