About us

Authentique – Epicerie & Bar is the brainchild of 4 French guys who grew up with a passion for artisan food and drinks.
Having lived abroad for years, we have witnessed a strong crave, from local communities, for craft products from France and the French Speaking world.

Authentique – Epicerie & Bar is our way to combine our enthusiasm for Francophone Gastronomy with our urge to share and learn with you about the savoir-faire, the products, their creators and terroirs.

As a result, every month you will have the chance to discover one of the 12 Francophone Regions we are showcasing, through a carefully curated selection of food and drinks as well as a monthly dinner designed by one of our guest chefs.

 

 

 

Chef in the Kitchen!

Our philosophy to the produce we stock is the same as who we want to host to cook in our kitchen. Authentique – Epicerie & Bar purposefully choose up and coming chefs and give them a platform and kitchen to cook in for a wide audience.

Our current Chef Jake Taylor  grew up in East London and was always passionate about food and cooking from childhood. With family living in the South West of France, Jake was classically trained and worked in many top restaurants in London & abroad before launching his open fire restaurant in Dakar Senegal. He then moved back into the UK and joined us at Authentique, where he’s exploring the regional specialities of France while cooking seasonal and locally sourced British ingredients, focusing on flavours and sustainability. Find his menu here.

The kitchen opens Tuesday to Friday from 5pm and Saturday from 12noon.
