Shaftesbury has announced the opening of a new neighbourhood restaurant and wine bar, The Barbary Next Door, the ‘little sister’ concept adjacent to The Barbary in Neal’s Yard, Seven Dials.
The 300 sq ft The Barbary Next Door restaurant located at 16a Neal’s Yard serves a menu inspired by the fragrant spices and smoky flavours of Moorish Spain and North African cooking.
Julia Wilkinson, restaurant director at Shaftesbury commented: “We have enjoyed working collaboratively with the Paskins across our portfolio for many years and have been delighted at the success of their award-winning Barbary concept, so the addition of their little sister concept, ‘The Barbary Next Door’, is a natural but equally creative addition to Neal’s Yard.”
Zoe Paskin, co-founder of The Barbary Next Door, added: “We created The Barbary in two ways, the communal cooking around a fire and a space envisioned on the romance of every back street we have ever wandered down from Seville to Rome, Marrakesh to Marseille. A hidden courtyard and then a discovered bar or restaurant.
“The Barbary Next Door is all that and the joy of us further exploring the heritage of the regions.”
