Jacket potatoes, matcha, sushi and a bagel speakeasy land on Princes Street

Princes Street, just off Regent Street, is turning into a proper food stop, with four new names signed, Hospitality & Catering News reports.

Open now - SpudBros Express at number 4: the social media favourite's jacket potato flagship, piled high with toppings. - No.1 Princes Street: naturally fermented New York-style bagels with deli fillings by day, and a basement speakeasy with cocktails and late-night entertainment. It opened in October.

Coming soon - Kazu at number 6: a new site for the Fitzrovia Japanese restaurant, with sushi, sashimi and small plates, due before Christmas. - SMATCHA at number 3: its first standalone shop and third in London after Westfield London and Brent Cross, with ceremonial-grade Kyoto matcha and yuzu drinks, plus a traditional stone mill grinding matcha in front of you.

Already there: plant-focused Tendril, which has been on the street for five years, and Bar Remo, a long-standing family-run Italian.

Go if: you want a cheap, filling lunch near Oxford Circus, or a bagel by day and a cocktail downstairs after dark.
