A Milestone Anniversary for the Galvin Brothers
A Milestone Anniversary for the Galvin Brothers
Chris and Jeff Galvin are proudly celebrating ten remarkable years since the launch of their acclaimed dining destinations.
They remain the only British brothers to each hold a Michelin star whilst continuing to work together daily.
“Over the years, it is inevitable that offerings in food, service, and atmosphere can become familiar. We embrace disruption in the way we look after our guests, as tastes continuously evolve,” explains Chris.
“Just this year, we fundamentally reinvented our adjoining bistrot space. Everything from the décor and menus to the carefully curated wine list is entirely new, and the results have been truly spectacular.”
“Yet, continuity is equally vital,” adds Jeff. “The majority of the artisanal suppliers we use today are the same ones we started with ten years ago. They have become trusted partners and friends; they understand our exacting standards. When Chris and I consider a seasonal menu change, we consult with them to ensure our dishes showcase the very finest produce available.”
“Our flagship dining room is a particular delight to us, as it truly reflects everything we hold dear,” Jeff continues. “We were both classically trained at the beginning of our careers, and those foundational techniques remain the bedrock of our gastronomy. We believe in preparing the finest ingredients with utmost care, served with flair and meticulous attention to detail to entrance both our loyal patrons and first-time visitors.”
When reflecting on their milestones, Chris is particularly proud of their dedication to hospitality training. “We are immensely proud to be the first establishment globally to develop and achieve the Global Certification from City & Guilds”
Another notable highlight of the past decade was the publication of ‘Galvin: A Cookbook de Luxe’, which beautifully chronicled the brothers’ story, outlined their culinary philosophy, and shared their most celebrated recipes.
“It is hard to believe that ten years have passed since we opened our doors within the historic splendour of St Botolph’s Hall,” reflects Chris. “We have been supported from day one by an unsung member of our team: our middle brother, David, who can be found at the markets sourcing our produce early each morning. Thanks to his dedication, we have proudly served over one million guests in this past decade.”
“Jeff and I are keen to look forward rather than back. Whilst hospitality is a dynamic and ever-evolving industry, one element that will never alter is our absolute commitment to integrity and sustainability across our entire company.”
With exciting new ventures continually on the horizon, the brothers remain as dedicated as ever to working together and curating the most memorable fine dining experiences for their guests.
