Our Story

Since its inception, Meet Bros has symbolised the coming together of forces—a meeting of minds, a fusion of semi-fine dining experiences, Asian-Fusion cuisine, and premium steaks.

Our Paddington steakhouse was born through a collaboration between two esteemed groups: Palace Butcher Resources and Serai Group from Malaysia. Inspired by a global melting pot, we chose London as the base for our European expansion.

Serving a Halal menu with a selection of completely alcohol-free beverages, Meet Bros offers a unique dining experience focused on quality taste and community for the whole family.

Prepare for an immersive dining experience as you step into our modern-designed basement, inspired by ancient medieval aesthetics, nestled in the heart of London.

Our Mission

Our mission is to offer the world’s finest Halal steakhouse, which led us to expand beyond Malaysia and open our new restaurant in London. Through the harmonious marriage of Western and Asian cuisine, our Asian-Fusion steakhouse provides a gathering place for the diverse food lovers of this city.

Whether it’s a casual meet-up or a special event, book your next dining experience at our Paddington restaurant.
