Jason Atherton

Co-Founder, Leon; Chef and Restaurateur

When Jason Atherton was 16, he ran away from home while his parents were on holiday to train as a chef. In 1998 he became the first British chef to complete a stage at el Bulli, Spain’s famous restaurant. Atherton has also trained under culinary masters such as Nico Landis and Marco Pierre White. This invaluable experience has helped launch Atherton’s distinct and imaginative flair. Until 2010, Atherton was the executive chef at Gordon Ramsay’s Michelin-starred Maze, and he has opened a number of other restaurants around the world. Atherton’s flagship restaurant Pollen Street Social opened in April 2011, and in 2013 he opened Social Eating House in Soho and Little Social in Mayfair. His restaurant spree is set to continue in 2015 with a number of openings currently on the cards.
