Our Story
Restauranteur Kedar Subedi moved from Nepal to India when he was 14 years of age. He has now amassed 27 years of hospitality experience, working in restaurants across the world. He has gained his reputation in Delhi, Dubai, Essex, London, and Bristol.
He came to Bristol because of the city’s drinking and dining culture – and after working as a senior chef for seven years, he opened his first restaurant in 2019.

Harbour Hub
Tapas Restaurant and Cocktail Bar, established 2022
In 2022 Kedar turned to the harbourside as the location for a summer-based cocktail bar and restaurant. HarbourHub offers beautiful waterside views, a garden built for the sunny summer days or cosy sunsets, and a range of food and drinks.
HarbourHub focuses on smaller tapas dishes, with original cocktails. Its reputation is beginning to snowball as Bristol’s harbourside becomes more popular as a walking, drinking, and dining up-and-coming area. Visit HarbourHub for a drink and some light plates in the sun!
HarbourHub is open from 11:00 until 22:00 everyday.
Golden Crane
Japanese Whisky and Cocktail Bar, established 2023
In keeping with Kedar’s Asiatic hospitality experience, his next project began in 2023. Taking over a basement venue previously owned by local trip-hop group Massive Attack, Kedar now owns Golden Crane.
Golden Crane is a high-end Japanese Whisky Cocktail Bar. It specialises in sophisticated cocktails designed by a team of hospitality staff with decades of experience.
It has a relaxed and down-tempo atmosphere; the team burn incense and play trip-hop in keeping with the history of the building, making sure all of the customers are finely looked after.
Try out our original cocktails from 5 until 12:30 on Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday, and 5 until late on Friday and Saturday.
