Coco Momo, Marylebone High Street; formerly, a Food & Fuel public house

Food & Fuel Pubs was a small, independent gastropub and cafe bar chain in London.[1] The firm was established in June 2006, when it bought five pubs from Punch Taverns. It ran eleven sites in Central and West London,[2] including Richmond, Chiswick, Pimlico, Marylebone, Kensington and Chelsea.[3]

The firm was co-founded by Karen Jones, former chief executive of Spirit Group, which was later purchased by Punch Taverns, and Jo Cumming and Peter Myers.[3][4][5]

In August 2018, the 11-strong portfolio, which included two Coco Momo wine bars, was purchased by the Brunning & Price division of The Restaurant Group for £15.4 million.[3][6] Brunning & Price now operates 12 pubs under the "Food & Fuel" banner, which are predominantly located in central London.[7]
