Dirty Bones has just announced it will open at BOXPARK Croydon this June, marking a significant new chapter for the restaurant brand as it brings its New York-inspired comfort food concept to one of London’s most influential food and entertainment destinations.
The opening sees Dirty Bones join BOXPARK during a milestone anniversary year, bringing together two brands with strong roots in food, culture and community.
Founded in Kensington in 2014, Dirty Bones established itself as one of London’s most recognisable restaurant brands by combining high-quality comfort food with influences drawn from old-school hip hop, R&B and New York City’s food and music scene. Over the past decade, the brand has built a loyal following through its distinctive cultural identity, memorable guest experience and commitment to quality-led dining.
The BOXPARK Croydon opening comes at an exciting time for Dirty Bones, as growing consumer demand and renewed buzz around the brand continue to build momentum. Introducing Dirty Bones to a new South London audience, the opening marks the first of several developments planned for the business this year, while remaining true to the food, atmosphere and culture that helped define its success.
Guests can expect the brand’s signature menu, including loaded fries, corn ribs, the ever popular chicken wings as well as Chicken Over Rice and Chicken Over Caesar dishes inspired by New York Bodegas, the iconic Chopped Cheese Hero and freshly cooked rotisserie chicken.
The opening follows a period of strong consumer engagement for the brand, including the successful launch of its viral Bottomless Wings and Brunch concept, as well as an upgraded offering for the gluten-free community, helping introduce Dirty Bones to a new generation of diners while reinforcing its position within London’s casual dining market.
Cokey Sulkin, Co-founder of Dirty Bones, said: “Dirty Bones has always occupied its own space within London’s restaurant scene. We’ve spent the past year focusing on what we do best, refining the proposition, strengthening the guest experience and ensuring the brand continues to evolve whilst staying true to its roots.
BOXPARK Croydon feels like a natural fit. It’s a destination that celebrates food, music, culture and community in the same way we do, and we’re excited to introduce Dirty Bones to a new audience as we begin this next chapter for the brand.”
