No. 1 Princes Street Opens in Mayfair: NYC Bagels by Day, Secret Speakeasy by Night

Mayfair’s new bagel house, No.1 Princes Street, has opened its doors at 1 Princes Street, Mayfair on Monday 28th September, bringing a slice of New York's iconic bagel scene to the heart of the neighbourhood.

The new 1800 sq foot venue seats 80 guests - and specialises in serving handcrafted, naturally fermented bagels baked fresh daily using traditional techniques. As part of its opening week, No.1 Princes Street will be giving away free handcrafted bagels to the first 100 guests through the doors on Friday 2nd October from 8am - first come, first served.

The menu is bringing a taste of the NYC deli counter to Mayfair, with classic bagels including plain, sesame, everything and raisin, alongside a line-up of generous fillings. Breakfast favourites include smoked salmon and cream cheese, avocado and egg, and bacon and egg, while lunchtime offers the likes of a salt beef melt, a fresh chicken club and New York-inspired Reuben with stacks of smoked pastrami, grilled swiss cheese and fresh sauerkraut and pickles.

For those who like to do things their own way, a classic New York style build-your-own option lets guests create their perfect deli-style order, choosing from a selection of classic fillings, house-made spreads and globally inspired flavours. The menu is complemented by speciality coffee, matcha and premium teas - perfect for a quick coffee run, a breakfast meeting or settling in for a leisurely lunch.

Underground Speakeasy and Late-Night Cocktails

From 8th October, once the sun goes down, a hidden speakeasy will open beneath it, giving Mayfair its own late-night nod to NYC's underground bar scene. The speakeasy will transport guests from London to the backstreets of New York, with a late-night menu and cocktail list inspired by the city’s legendary drinking spots.

The drinks menu features signatures including the No.1 Princes Martini, Tomatini, Caviar Martini and Vesper, alongside modern classics including the Mezcal Negroni, Limoncello Spritz and Rhubarb Bellini. Fine wines, Champagne and craft beers will also be available, with live DJ sets taking over from Thursday to Saturday.

Whether it's a New York-style bagel on the way to work, Champagne and carbs after shopping in Mayfair, or a Martini hidden away downstairs after dark, No.1 Princes Street is bringing a little bit of NYC to W1 - from breakfast to last orders.

No.1 Princes Street’s Bagel house is open from Monday 28th September at Mayfair, London, W1B 2AY - Monday–Friday 7.30am–6pm, Saturday 9am–6pm. The speakeasy bar will open from 8th October and will run Tuesday–Saturday evenings.
