Hotel Chocolat to open new site under its fledgling café concept at Cathedral Square in Worcester.
Salmon Harvester Opportunity Fund has agreed a deal with the listed group to open a new café and shop at Worcester’s Cathedral Square.
The Hotel Chocolat shop will incorporate the new shop and cafe concept serving chocolate as well as the full range of luxury chocolates. The new café is one of only a handful in the country with others situated in Cambridge, Edinburgh, Leeds, Liverpool, London’s Covent Garden and York.
Hotel Chocolat has signed a 10-year lease, at a rent of £90,000 per annum, on a unit previously occupied by Monsoon.
Cathedral Square is undergoing a £20m refurbishment, which is due for completion in Spring 2017. SHOF has already signed a number of new leisure tenants including Ask, Byron Hamburgers, Cosy Club, Miller and Carter and Fitness4less.
Nick Webb of Salmon Harvester Opportunity Fund said: “For such a dynamic brand to bring its new concept café to Worcester is a great endorsement of the city centre and our scheme.”
Harper Dennis Hobbs acted for Hotel Chocolat and HTC, Johnson Fellows and DMR acted for SHOF.
