London sets the perfect stage for The Standard’s first European flagship and since opening in 2019, The Standard, London has firmly established itself as one of the capital’s most dynamic lifestyle hotels.

Set in King’s Cross within the hotel’s iconic brutalist building, The Standard brings its design-led, culture-driven, activation-heavy philosophy to the heart of the city. With 266 guestrooms and a constant programme of Happenings, from DJs and brunches to live music and cultural panels, the hotel has become both a neighbourhood fixture and an international destination.

Our Restaurants, Bars and Rooftop terraces are legendary, and The Standard is synonymous worldwide as a shining beacon for nightlife and culturally relevant dining. Isla delivers seasonal, produce-led menus focused on light proteins and minimal-intervention wines, served within a serene garden terrace that operates year-round; Double Standard blends American diner spirit with classic British pub culture, serving hearty fare, beers and cocktails from midday to late; The Rooftop stretches across the 11th floor with panoramic London views, speciality cocktails and street food; while Decimo, our 10th floor destination restaurant, celebrates bold Mexican-Spanish cooking over fire, mezcal cocktails and dramatic skyline views accessed via our iconic red-pill lift. Together, these venues create a complex, high-volume, multi-outlet food and beverage operation running from early morning through late night, welcoming hotel guests, London locals and international visitors alike.

In London, The Standard’s signature mix of playful, sophisticated and unexpected hospitality continues to evolve, rooted firmly in the culture and energy of the city. We are now looking for a Director of Food & Beverage who will embody our Anything but Standard ethos and lead the continued evolution of our F&B programme.
