Grillshack, the latest venture from Richard Caring is to take a prime site on Beak Street in Soho.
The casual dining restaurant has taken a new 20 year lease from the landlord on the Alphabet Bar, Beak Street where an undisclosed premium was paid for them to surrender their lease. Shelley Sandzer, the leisure property agent acted for Grillshack Restaurants Ltd.
Grillshack will occupy the 3000 sq ft unit over ground floor and the basement and will open during the summer.
Nick Weir, partner, Shelley Sandzer said;
“Grillshack is a great new venture and we have secured a fantastic site right in the heart of Soho. Whilst many people might be sad to see the Alphabet bar go, this new restaurant will be appropriate for the area and sure to attract a good fan base from the start.”
The Alphabet bar opened in 1997 and has been a defining venue that helped establish the London bar scene.
