Head of Brand & B2C at DesignMyNight since 2013, Katie Kirwan is
a nightlife and hospitality expert, and has been honing her love of
restaurants, bars and experiences for over 12 years. She's a big
fan of Japanese dining (and will always order the agedashi tofu),
on the pulse of new
restaurants in the city, and can always be found in one of
London's quirky museums too. Need a table at
The Devonshire? She can help with that too.
Katie also regularly provides content about hospitality,
nightlife, food and drink for
The Times, Bar
Magazine and
Time Out.
