HOP BRINGS FRESH VIETNAMESE FLAVOURS TO THE HEART OF LONDON

London food lovers, get ready! HOP is bringing its bold, fresh, and authentic Vietnamese flavours to the heart of the city with a new venue opening in King’s Cross. Launching on Monday 24th November, the new venue offers delicious and vibrant meals for lunch, dinner, or a quick bite on the go.

Known for its fast, fresh, and flavour packed dishes, the new HOP venue will serve an updated menu celebrating rice as a staple, while showcasing authentic Vietnamese flavours. The new menu will feature various HOP rice boxes, vibrant noodle salads, a variety of different Pho, several types of Banh Mi, and a tempting array of small bites and drinks, perfect for a nutritious lunch or a relaxed evening meal with friends.

The King’s Cross venue will seat up to 52 diners across the ground floor and basement. Alongside the new menu, the venue will unveil a fresh new look inspired by the warm Vietnamese phrase “Ăn cơm chưa?” – a friendly greeting that translates to “Have you eaten rice yet?” or “Have you eaten yet?” and reflects the heart of Vietnamese hospitality.

Contemporary yet true to its roots, the King’s Cross restaurant captures HOP’s mission to share the warmth, generosity, and vibrancy of Vietnamese culture. Every element has been thoughtfully crafted to create not just a place to eat, but a place to connect.

Ordering is quick and convenient. Guests can order at a kiosk or by scanning a QR code at their table, and food is delivered straight to your seat. It’s fast, fuss-free, and designed to fit around a busy London lifestyle, without compromising on nutrition, flavour or freshness.

Paul Hopper, Founder of HOP, said “I’m thrilled to be opening our new venue in King’s Cross. Our goal is to bring the freshness, vibrancy, and natural goodness of Vietnamese food to even more people. HOP was born from my love of Vietnam and its food culture, and we want every dish to feel authentic, nourishing, and fast—perfect for busy Londoners who don’t want to compromise on taste.”
