[edit] History
The original restaurant, in Brick Lane, London, was established by the eponymous Morris Bloom in 1920. His son Sidney continued to run the family business. In the early 1930s, the restaurant moved to Old Montague Street. As said below, they established a restaurant in the East End in 1952 and closed it in 1996. It closed due to the changing nature of the neighborhood.[2]
[edit] Today
The restaurant maintained an East-End eatery until 1996, but today there is just one Bloom's restaurant, in Golders Green in north west London.
