Tio João is due to open on St Michael’s Hill in Kingsdown, next to Giggsy’s barbers and opposite Psychopomp microdistillery.

146 St Michael’s Hill has remained closed in recent years, but was previously an Indian restaurant called Raj and Italian restaurant, La Passione.

‘Tio’ means ‘uncle’ in Portuguese, with João a popular name in both Brazil and Portugal, including Manchester City and Watford footballers, João Cancelo and João Pedro.
