Over 8,500sq ft of new signings and openings by Shaftesbury are set to add to the unique West End dining offer and night-time economy.
Shaftesbury today announces four flagship restaurant signings and openings in Covent Garden: Slim Chickens, The Patate, Tequila Mockingbird, and the recently launched Mildreds. The new brands add to Shaftesbury’s comprehensive day to evening offer for visitors and office workers returning to the capital.
- Slim Chickens, the rapidly growing American dining brand operated in the UK by Boparan Restaurant Group, is set to make a statement in Covent Garden with the launch of a flagship West End restaurant at 1 Cambridge Circus, the prime location on the junction of Shaftesbury Avenue and Charing Cross Road. The 3,874sq ft space is set over two floors (ground floor and basement) and will offer over 120 covers across two floors and an outside area too.
- The Patate, the French gourmet burger brand, is to make its central London debut in April at 55 Neal Street, Seven Dials, in a 1,000sq ft site on two floors. The signing is part of the brand’s expansion within the capital and joins their restaurants in Kentish Town and Battersea.
- Tequila Mockingbird, the cocktail specialist, is set to unveil its flagship bar in an expansive basement at 42 William IV Street, in the heart of theatreland and underneath The Jones Family Affair who launched late last year. Due to open later this spring, the 3,500sq ft eclectic concept will be offering an extensive cocktail and brunch menu. Building on its’ regional presence in Wimbledon, Brixton, Clapham and Shoreditch, the Covent Garden site will serve as the central London hub.
- Last month saw the launch of Mildreds, the 100 per cent plant-based restaurant on St Martin’s Lane, replacing a steak restaurant. Adding to the vibrant offer in Covent Garden, Mildreds has built a reputation for pioneering internationally-inspired plant-based dishes
