The site is located beneath St Mary-le-Bow – famous for its Bow Bells – within an 11th-century crypt.
Spanning three bays and featuring original Norman arches and a groined vault, the space is nearly one thousand years old.
Humble Grape Bow Lane will seat 60 guests inside and 40 on the terrace.
The wine bar, restaurant and wine shop will serve a curated list of more than 500 bottles alongside a menu of European-inspired sharing plates.
Guests can expect the brand’s signature baked camembert, artisan cheese and charcuterie boards, seasonal small plates and steaks.
“Opening our doors within such an extraordinary setting is both humbling and inspiring,” says founder James Dawson. “St Mary-le-Bow has stood for centuries as a place of gathering and community – values that resonate deeply with Humble Grape. We want Bow Lane to be more than a wine bar; it’s a place where people can connect, discover wines made with integrity, and feel part of something timeless.”
Founded in 2009, Humble Grape imports wines from 26 countries, working with independent producers who follow organic, biodynamic and sustainable practices.
Humble Grape Bow Lane is set to open in November.
