Sam Harrison
Owner
My passion for the restaurant industry started at the age of 16 when I started waitering for friends catering firms. After I finished school I decided to further my interest in hospitality and completed a degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management at Oxford Brookes University.
After working at Rick Stein’s Seafood Restaurant in Cornwall for four years, I moved to Australia and worked with some internationally renowned chefs as well as work on some fantastic new openings. I then returned to London and with the help of Rick and my fellow directors I opened my first restaurant, Sam’s Brasserie in 2005 and then Harrison’s in 2007.
My staff are an integral part of the business, without them Harrison’s wouldn’t be what it is today.
