Restaurant Branding, From Concept to Table
Define London is a restaurant branding agency for premium dining. We build the name, identity and guest-facing assets that make a room worth booking, from the façade and menu to the website a diner visits at 11pm.
Full brand identity engagements typically sit between £35,000 and £50,000, with premium programmes from £50,000 to £150,000.
Naming and positioning for restaurants and dining concepts
Identity systems: logo, typography, colour and art direction
Menus, drinks lists and printed collateral, from concept to print
Signage, façade and interior graphics
Tableware and packaging touches that carry the brand to the table
Restaurant websites and launch campaign assets
Most restaurant branding stops at the logo. The name works on the sign, but the menu is set in a template, the website is a booking engine wrapper and the room says nothing the identity promised. The guest notices, quietly, in the gap between expectation and experience.
We design the brand as one system across all of it: the identity that earns the booking, the menu that holds it and the room that confirms it. A restaurant brand is not decoration on a dining room. It is part of what is being served.

What does restaurant branding include? Naming and positioning, identity design, menus and printed collateral, signage and interior graphics, and the digital presence: website, listings and launch campaign assets, built as one system.
Do you name restaurants? Yes. Naming is a core part of our work: restaurant names, sub-brands for bars and private dining, tested against search, pronunciation and the story the room will tell.
How much does restaurant branding cost? As a guide, a full luxury brand identity typically sits between £35,000 and £50,000, with premium programmes from £50,000 to £150,000. Focused commissions such as wayfinding or a website start smaller. See our full pricing guide for the breakdown.
Do you design menus and signage? Yes. Menus, drinks lists, façade and interior signage are a core part of our restaurant work, directed from concept to print and fabrication.
