Another senior appointment for The Standard

Days after announcing Murray Scott as its new general manager, The Standard hotel in London has brought in Sophie Bratt as its new head of bars.

Bratt will be taking on responsibility for the bar programmes across the hotel's food and beverage outlets, including Sweeties, Double Standard, Decimo and Isla.

She has spent the past decade at some of London's most celebrated venues, including The Roof Gardens, Sexy Fish, Harvey Nichols, OXO Tower and Nobu. 

Bratt is also co-founder of Community Spirit, an industry-led non-profit set up in the wake of the Grenfell Tower tragedy, which has raised funds for charities including Hospitality Action, A Good Night Out Campaign and Under One Sky.

"What excites me about The Standard is the freedom to be creative," she says. "It’s in the hotel’s DNA and you feel it across everything we do. Sweeties, Double Standard, Decimo and Isla each have their own distinct personality, and I’m looking forward to bringing that individuality to life through cocktails that feel considered, distinctive and genuinely fun."
