TGI Friday’s and Cosmo have become the latest restaurants to join Hammerson’s £20m leisure extension of Silverburn, its flagship regional out-of-town shopping centre in Glasgow.
TGI Friday’s will open a 634m² restaurant alongside Cosmo’s 922m² pan-Asian restaurant. Both will join the new leisure extension and complement the 14-screen Cineworld cinema. They will open in late autumn 2014.
Last year, Zizzi and PizzaExpress, were named by Hammerson as the first of nine restaurants to take up residence at the extension.
Chris Daly, catering leasing executive at Hammerson, said: “These two signings are another key milestone in the creation of Silverburn’s leisure extension. Along with the Cineworld cinema, the other new restaurants, and the existing offer, they will create a critical mass of offer that will establish Silverburn as the destination of choice for consumers in the catchment, not just for shopping, but for dining and leisure.”
David Carroll, property director at TGI Friday’s UK, said: “Scotland is an important market for us and Silverburn’s already strong retail and leisure offer makes it a great option for a new T.G.I. Friday’s. We are planning a full open kitchen, exciting dining area and a standalone bar. To be part of this new leisure destination is a fantastic opportunity, particularly with such a prime position close to the cinema.”
Bruce Gillingham Pollard acted for Hammerson and CBRE represented TGI Friday’s. Culverwell and Cushman and Wakefield acted for Cosmo.
