About AGORA
AGORA is a vibrant restaurant inspired by the energy of Athens’s markets and streets, and the flavours of Greece and wider levant. Located in the heart of London’s thriving Borough Market, it is the latest project by the dcco. collective [ manteca, SMOKESTAK ].
A site within the world-famous London Bridge location has been thoughtfully restored with repurposed, natural materials evocative of the raw, Greek landscapes it is inspired by. At its centre, a custom-built rotisserie where whole animals are spit roasted over open fires, whilst hand pulled flatbreads and seasonal vegetables baste beneath. In the coals, pots of hearty, humble dishes gently stew, whilst nearby at the stone slab bar, cocktails are served alongside premium roasted coffee and rustic baked goods. Our cooking focuses on minimizing waste and maximising flavour by honouring the innovative, resourceful cooking techniques of the cultures behind it. Our hosting strives to match the hospitality of the warmth of these cultures, too. We are supplier led with evolving menus that showcase the best of the season.
We are proud to be an independent business grounded in a purely hospitality background. We invite all to sit at the table with us. We promote a culture of learning and development encouraging independent thinkers.
