A Winning Partnership: WRS Celebrates Robert Thompson’s Chef of the Year Award
We are delighted to share in the celebration of a fantastic achievement for one of our valued clients. Our congratulations go out to Chef Robert Thompson, who has been awarded the prestigious Chef of the Year at the British Restaurant Awards 2025.
This national recognition is a testament to the creativity, passion and dedication of Robert and his entire team at RT Cafe Grill. As a long-standing partner, WRS is proud to provide the behind- the-scenes technology that helps this award-winning team focus on what they do best – creating dining experiences.
While the artistry happens in the kitchen, our POS systems ensure transactions are fast and seamless, allowing the team to deliver exceptional hospitality and the freedom to concentrate on their craft.
Speaking about the win, Robert said:
“I’m deeply honoured to have been named Chef of the Year at the British Restaurant Awards. This award isn’t just for me — it’s for the whole team who work tirelessly alongside me every day, and for the guests who continue to support us with such loyalty and enthusiasm.
“Cooking has always been about more than just food for me; it’s about creating experiences, telling stories, and celebrating the incredible produce we’re lucky to work with.
“To be recognised on a national stage, amongst so many talented chefs, is humbling and inspiring. I’m truly grateful — and more motivated than ever to keep pushing, creating, and sharing what we love.”
Congratulations to Robert and the entire RT Cafe Grill team, from all of us at WRS.
