Shaftesbury Capital has announced that Harry’s, the Italian restaurant brand owned by Richard Caring, is set to open a flagship location in Covent Garden. Scheduled for launch this winter, the new restaurant will occupy 11–12 Russell Street, situated directly on the iconic Piazza.

Covering approximately 3,100 sq ft, the new Harry’s will include a large outdoor terrace, allowing guests to enjoy al fresco dining in the heart of Covent Garden. The restaurant will offer the brand’s signature Italian glamour with a modern edge, serving a menu of authentic dishes, including Harry’s Taglioni, alongside a curated cocktail selection and an extensive wine list.

“The site on the historic Piazza is one of the city’s best hospitality pitches, featuring an unrivalled al fresco dining area in the very centre of Covent Garden,” said Emma Matus, Head of Restaurant Leasing at Shaftesbury Capital.
“As a fixture of London’s culinary scene, Harry’s is the ideal brand to do this site justice, and will add an elegant and authentic dining option to the neighbourhood’s flourishing offer of high calibre operators in a one-of-a-kind atmosphere.”

Designed to reflect Harry’s timeless charm, the interior will draw on classic Italian inspirations to create a warm and welcoming setting. The announcement marks a significant addition to Covent Garden’s dining scene, already home to a number of high-profile restaurants including Ave Mario, Balthazar, The Barbary, Delamina Townhouse, Flat Iron, Story Cellar, The Oystermen, and SUSHISAMBA.

Laura Mills, Managing Director of The Ivy Group, said:
“We’re thrilled to be opening our latest Harry’s in the heart of Covent Garden, one of London’s most iconic dining destinations. At Harry’s, we’re committed to bringing a touch of la dolce vita to the capital’s most vibrant neighbourhoods and joining Covent Garden’s unrivalled culinary line-up felt like a natural next step. As always, our focus goes beyond great Italian food. It’s about creating memorable moments through warm, heartfelt hospitality. We’re incredibly proud to bring our signature charm to the West End and can’t wait to welcome both familiar and new faces to Harry’s Covent Garden this winter.”
