Bill’s story
Bill’s is not only a recommended restaurant to visit in London, but also has a unique history that makes its success known. Bill Collison (owner of Bill’s) decided one day to open the garage of his house to the public to sell the vegetables and fruit he grew in his garden, and after being very successful he decided to open a fruit and vegetable store on the main street from his small town in the south of England. In the year 2000, this store was flooded after heavy rains, and such was the degree of destruction that it had to reform it from scratch. When reforming it, Bill added an area with a couple of tables to serve dishes cooked only with the products he sold, as a demonstration of the quality of his products. He had so much success that Bill had no choice but to open a restaurant on the same street, and little by little he has been opening several restaurants, until arriving in London. The best thing is that the principles of the owner of this restaurant have not changed: All the food served is cooked with local products and in a traditional way.
The best thing is that today we have several restaurants in London, including one in the heart of Soho.
