RESTAURANT DESCRIPTION
The Griffin Craft Beer Gastropub is Martin Jakoby and Thomas Hughes? latest venture. The first of its kind in Johannesburg, The Griffin pays homage to the best beer and wine from home and abroad, while offering beautiful, fresh, seasonal food in the coolest surroundings.
Martin, a qualified veterinary surgeon-turned entrepreneur and Thom, a chef with 16 years of local and international experience, arrived home from London in 2005 with the simple dream of creating the kind of place people fall in love with. Before leaving London, Thom won the acclaimed Evening Standard Pub of the Year award for the Settle Inn in Battersea and was also Head Chef of the famous White Horse (AKA Sloaney Pony) in Parson?s Green.
