Katie Laden, Head of Marketing


We're delighted to share that Bar Douro has been recognised as one of CODE Hospitality's Happiest Places to Work 2026.

Bar Douro has always been about the people behind it, so this recognition means a great deal to us, and it's a huge credit to our team across London Bridge and City.

Founder Max Graham shared what the award means to the business:

"This award belongs to every single person who pours a glass, plates a dish or welcomes a guest at Bar Douro. We've always believed that if we look after our team first, helping them grow, feel valued and bring their true selves to work, everything else follows. Authenticity, excellence and care aren't just words in a training guide for us, they're how we treat each other every day. Being recognised as one of CODE's Happiest Places to Work is a wonderful way to celebrate everyone's hard work, and a signal that as we grow, we can remain true to our brand and our values."
