New Tokyo-style izakaya bar coming to Wapping Wharf
A new Japanese-style bar and restaurant will have the biggest outdoor seating area in Wapping Wharf when it opens in May.
Seven Lucky Gods will be located on the first floor extension of Cargo 2 will be opening next to Woky Ko Kaiju, with the two businesses sharing a terrace that will be able to seat some 50 people.
Seven Lucky Gods is being opened by the experienced team behind Hyde & Co, The Milk Thistle, The Ox, Pata Negra and Bambalan.
Inspired by the izakaya bars of Tokyo, it promises to be as much a venue for drinking – with Asahi beer on tap and specially selected wines and cocktails – as for casual all-day dining.
The food menu from executive chef Todd Francis will feature the likes of Japanese-style tapas, as well as freshly made sushi and bento boxes to eat in or for takeaway.
Seven Lucky Gods co-owner Nathan Lee said: “Wapping Wharf is an amazing area of the city and we’re extremely excited to be joining the great community of independent bars and restaurants down there.
“We wanted to create somewhere where people can drop in all day, be it for a quick takeaway lunch, drinks and a snack after work or to make an evening out of it and really get stuck into the menu.
“We loved the laid-back approach to drinking and dining which you can find in the izakaya bars of Japan, so we can’t wait to bring our take on this to Bristol.”
