The Eko Story
Welcome to Eko Bar and Restaurant, where we have been dedicated to serving the finest traditional West African cuisine since opening our doors in 2006. Our mission is to create an unforgettable experience for each customer, blending the rich flavors of our food with the vibrant atmosphere of our bar, music, and social scene. Eko, the Yoruba word for Lagos, holds a special place in our hearts—it represents home.
Our slogan, "Bringing Lagos to London," embodies our passion for offering a home away from home and a true taste of Lagos. At Eko, every dish is crafted with love, using authentic ingredients and traditional cooking methods, ensuring that each meal is not only delicious but also a nostalgic journey back to the heart of West Africa.​

The Heart of Eko
Founded by Mrs. Monica and Mr. Steve Ajayi, Eko Bar and Restaurant is built on family values and a passion for West African cuisine. Although Eko remains family-owned, Eko is a place where every guest is welcomed as part of the family, sharing in our love for food and community.
