Commis Chef

Overview
One Aldwych is one of the very few hotels in London, or indeed the world that can say it is truly independent. We like to think we do things differently, always with a warm, friendly spirit. Our story is very much our own to write and we invite you to become part of the next chapter.
Overseen by Head Chef Dominic Teague, our kitchens and menus exemplify his penchant for British ingredients crafted into delicious dishes with a touch of imagination. Dominic goes to extraordinary lengths to source an incredible medley of foods from across the British Isles, working with a network of trusted independent producers who support his commitment to seasonal and sustainable cooking that is ever-changing and always exciting. Plates have both substance and style, imbued with the skill and passion of a team that celebrates flavour and provenance in every dish.
