Don't Tell Dad

A new foodie spot in Queens Park, inspired by two siblings – Dan and his late sister Lesley – who believed the best memories always started with “don’t tell dad”. A bakery by day, a bistro by night, it’s a place that encourages fun and welcomes a little bit of mischief.

Together with Kuba & Friends, we created a bespoke brand identity with an invitingly warm colour palette, a handcrafted word mark and playful, often random, doodles.

After sifting through cards and letters that Lesley wrote, we hit upon the restaurant’s brandmark – Lesley’s signature sign-off – three x’s. Used throughout, from signage to napkins to staff uniforms to menus.
