Black Bear Burger launches into Westfield White City

Black Bear Burger, recently named Best Burger in the UK at the National Burger Awards, has open its biggest site yet at Westfield White City this April. The 100-cover restaurant, complete with a covered terrace, will serve the brand’s award-winning burgers, much-loved sides and signature soft-serve cones in a full-service setting.

Founded by husband-and-wife duo Liz and Stew Down, Black Bear started as a street food stall and has grown into one of London’s best-loved burger joints. The team is known for its ‘Not your typical burger joint’ ethos which focuses on high-quality ingredients, bold flavours and no-nonsense cooking.

At the core of the menu is grass-fed, dry aged British beef, sourced from native breeds and prepared using a unique blend of cuts. Alongside bestsellers like the award-winning Double Miso Bacon Burger (£15.40) and Brisket Spring Rolls (£7.50), new dishes will include a stuffed chicken wing with blue cheese sauce and hot sauce, and the return of their fan-favourite Chicken Nuggets (£9.50).

Drinks include Guinness on draught and cocktails such as barrel-aged Negroni (£10) and the Godfather Sour (£10.50). All diners are served a complimentary mini soft-serve cone to finish.  

Stew Down, co-founder of Black Bear Burger says: “We’ve been building Black Bear slowly over the past eight years, from flipping burgers on the street to opening this incredible flagship restaurant, whilst staying independent throughout. It’s a proper pinch-yourself moment.”

Located at 1026 Arial Way, the new Westfield restaurant follows successful sites in Brixton and Exmouth Market, bringing Black Bear’s total to eight across London.
