The Brave

The Brave är en bar och restaurang på 340-342 Essex Rd i London.

The Brave is a new venture by acclaimed chef James Cochran following the closure of his excellent restaurant 12:51. At his new digs, Cochran draws on childhood memories of pub lunches with his dad, serving hearty, warming dishes such as potato dumplings with slow-braised shin of beef, or coal-roasted leeks, as well as select 12:51 signatures such as the jerk-spiced chicken scotch egg. The cosy venue combines traditional pub hospitality with contemporary innovation and features different areas for dining and drinking, including outdoor tables.
