Head Waiter/ Waitress - Indigo

Overview

One Aldwych is one of the very few hotels in London, or indeed the world that can say it is truly independent. We like to think we do things differently, always with a warm, friendly spirit. Our story is very much our own to write and we invite you to become part of the next chapter.

A busy thoroughfare, the Mezzanine is home to Indigo, our signature restaurant and neighbourhood jewel as well as our Private Events and Room Service. Overseen by Head Chef Dominic Teague, the menus exemplifies his penchant for British ingredients and goes to extraordinary lengths to source them from independent producers who support his commitment to seasonal and sustainable cooking.
