Our story
From a greengrocer in Lewes
This isn't a corporate timeline. It's the story of how a humble greengrocery became the colourful, eclectic Bill's you know today.
01The Beginning
Bill's greengrocery
It started in the market town of Lewes, East Sussex — a humble greengrocery piled high with fresh, seasonal produce. The kind of place where everyone knew your name and your favourite apple.

02The First Café
The restaurant concept develops
From a grocer's counter to a kitchen. Bill's began serving breakfast and lunch over the produce crates — bold flavours, fresh ingredients and a warm, eclectic welcome that felt nothing like anywhere else.

03Bill's Restaurants
The brand grows
Word spread. Bill's grew from one much-loved café into a collection of restaurants — each one a little different, all unmistakably Bill's. Colourful, characterful and full of life.

04Bill's Today
A nationwide restaurant & bar brand
Today Bill's is a nationwide restaurant and bar — breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner & drinks from Lewes to Leeds. Still come hungry, still leave happy. Still unmistakably Bill's.
Come hungry. Leave happy.
That’s been the promise since day one — and it still is today.
