Jolly Hog co-founder Olly Kohn said: “We want to take the nation’s favourite breakfast food, bacon, and show that any dish, any time of day, can be elevated by a bit of bacon.

Kohn added: “Our chefs at Pigsty have been busily concocting delicious recipes using our British, outdoor bred, RSPCA assured bacon and we’re really excited to open the doors to the UK’s first bacon bar!”
