*Season Finale | Will Beckett, Co-Founder of Hawksmoor*
Hawksmoor has become one of the world's most respected restaurant groups, but its success wasn't built overnight.
In the final episode of Staying Open, Natalia Ribbe sits down with co-founder Will Beckett to discuss the journey from a single London steakhouse to an internationally recognised restaurant group, without ever losing sight of what mattered most.
Together they explore the importance of exceptional British produce, the relationships with farmers and suppliers that underpin the business, and how they perfected some of Hawksmoor's most iconic dishes.
Will also shares his thoughts on entrepreneurship, scaling a business, working with business partners, learning from failure and leading a team through one of the toughest periods the hospitality industry has ever faced.
Whether you're a restaurateur, entrepreneur or simply someone who loves eating out, this episode is packed with honest insight into what it really takes to build a restaurant that stands the test of time.
