Colbert opens early autumn 2012.
On the site where Oriel stood for 20 years, Colbert is the new restaurant on the Sloane Square block, currently being transformed by Chris Corbin and Jeremy King. The new 6,000 metre square restaurant from the men who brought you The Wolseley, The Delaunay (December 2011) and Brasserie Zedel (which opened this year in June 2012) is billed as "a true all-day 'grand cafe', providing eating and grazing from breakfast through to later evening". They plan to bring to Chelsea the Wolseley style and format, something that will no doubt be music to the ears for diners in this part of town. Such a prominent site deserves a destination restaurant and with 30 years' experience in the industry Corbin and King are past masters at producing the kind of restaurants celebrities go to and the rest of us follow. They proved their mettle with upmarket restaurants like The Ivy and Le Caprice which they sold to Richard Caring who also expressed an interest in this Sloane Square site. You can decide for yourself whether Colbert, like its predecessor, will remain 30 years on this spot when it opens in early autumn with an opening date in September 2012 expected.
