And the crowd goes moo…! The Flat Iron football tournament is here – a fantastic idea, actioned by our teams, to encourage some healthy competition between the restaurants. Our London Bridge and Westfield teams went head-to-head in the first game, with Westfield taking home the win. Great work, Ronald, for organising – see you at the next! 

Last week we hosted our Carcass Club series at Flat Iron Hammersmith and Waterloo. The Carcass Club is an opportunity to try remarkable rare breed or lesser-known beef; this time, it was the turn of the Belted Galloway. Fondly referred to as ‘Belties’, these remarkable animals are slow maturing, producing beef with an exceptional depth of flavour. Our in-house butcher Scott is a true master of his craft and broke down an entire Belted Galloway carcass in our Covent Garden butchery. The result was 150 expertly portioned and deliciously marbled steaks – some of the most marbled beef Scott has seen in his 18 years as a butcher. It was a fantastic evening – our next Carcass Club is lined up for mid-October, more details coming soon!

We've introduced The Triple Cheese Truffle Burger to all of our restaurants - layers of melted raclette, gouda and American cheese with our homemade truffle relish and suitably thick pickles. As always, the patties are made using beef from our Yorkshire based herd.

We’ve recently refreshed our drinks menu - the eagle-eyed may have spotted a Tony’s Margarita, but who is Tony?   Tony's journey began in Sinaia, Romania, where he started his hospitality career as a young teenager and continued to become a General Manager by the age of 25. Excited for a new adventure, Tony moved to England, where he joined us in our Shoreditch restaurant and swiftly discovered his love for bartending. Fast forward a few years and Tony is now a legendary face of Flat Iron, where his role as Head Bar Trainer is fundamental in many ways, from the smooth opening of our new restaurants to the creation of new boozy concoctions.   And so – Tony’s Margarita was born. It’s fresh, zingy and is a true celebration of the spirit he brings to every glass. Cheers!

We closed our restaurants for the day so our formidable teams could enjoy our annual summer party. This year’s theme was carnival and, as always, the outfits were on point (disclaimer: raunchiest ones not shown…) Can't wait for next year!

There’s less than one week to go until we open the doors to Flat Iron Manchester. Our fantastic team are ready and raring to go with GM Fraser Walker at the helm, having learned everything from meticulous steak carving to the key steps of service and ice carving on the bar.   As we continue to grow, we’re looking for more General Managers to support our teams. If you're interested, reach out to Chante Mathurin for a chat or apply directly.   P.S. We’re giving away 500 Wagyu steaks to celebrate the opening on Tuesday 2nd July from 5pm at Flat Iron Manchester, 200 Deansgate. We hope to see you there!

Soho Food Feast is one of our favourite weekends of the year! It brings the community together to raise money for Soho Parish Primary School. Our team had a great time serving Scottish Bavette, alongside Soho’s finest restaurants and chefs. We hope everyone who attended had an incredible time and enjoyed all of the delicious food. We’re already looking forward to next year!

We are excited and proud to share the news that we have been recognised as a Sunday Times Best Place to Work for 2024 in the Big Organisation Category. Our belief has always been that if we select an amazing bunch of people, give them the training and the tools they need, and then try to make Flat Iron the best place they have ever worked, we can’t go too far wrong. In the last 12 months, we have put even more focus on doing this by taking the time to listen and do what matters most to our teams, from improving benefits to strengthening our approach to development and creating more opportunities for all. This award is a testament to the journey we have been on and best of all, it reflects how our people tell us they feel 🖤
