Founded by Charles Ganem and Samuel Nataf in Pigalle in 2019, Dumbo quickly won over Parisians with its take on the smashburger and its stripped-back aesthetic. Having grown to four sites in Paris, Charles and Samuel went international by opening a location in Shoreditch. Like its Parisian sisters, the London Dumbo has the same understated, functional design and simple menu of cheeseburgers (made with HG Walter meat) and veggie burgers made with artisan potato brioche buns, American cheese, onions and pickles; french fries; and chicken nuggets. The whole vibe isn’t dissimilar to Supernova, which went viral when it launched in Soho, and Dumbo looks to have gone down well too.
