The refurbishment of the iconic Chelsea Lodge Restaurant and Nightclub into a 1920’s inspired venue, BÓHA London, located on one of Chelsea’s most famous streets, King’s Road.

The opportunity

During Summer 2023, TPI oversaw the renovation of Chelsea Lodge Restaurant and Nightclub into BÓHA London, a luxury, immersive restaurant and 1920’s style speakeasy cocktail bar, for high profile clients Harvey Armstrong and Sam Holmes (the visionary minds behind Prime Time Lager), Jay Bradley (founder of The Craft Irish Whisky Co) and hospitality entrepreneur Chase Hunter. The works included the full fit-out of the ground floor and basement, terraces, and refurbishment of the WCs. New glazing was added to the front façade and further structural works were undertaken to create a new crittal window into the kitchen area. The installation of a new state-of the art kitchen which is now home to executive chef Anthony Fletcher (of The Ned) and head chef Samuel McClurkin (former chef of the Royal Family) who serve up elevated Irish and British fusion cuisine. A bespoke, hand-built bar was constructed in the basement, with a secret access door masquerading as a bottle shelving unit behind. The building has been finished with gold, green and blue accents throughout to give a fashionable, bohemian air to the whole venue.

The challenge

The project had a tight deadline to deliver the finished venue for its public opening in September 2023. TPI ensured the team worked diligently to meet project completion whilst maintaining a high-quality finish and efficient programme in time for its launch.

The outcome

The high-end venue is now open to the public accommodating up to 140 guests for a sophisticated meal out. Due to the status of the clients and beautiful finishes, it has garnered significant publicity, ensuring a successful future for the glamourous building.
