Gourmet Burger Kitchen (GBK) and local operator Let’s Sushi are to join the line-up at the Oasis Dining Quarter in Sheffield’s Meadowhall scheme.
Opening in November, GBK’s new 2,500sq ft restaurant, will be located on the upper level alongside the likes of Giraffe, TGI Fridays and Carluccio’s, and will cater for 100 covers.
Let’s Sushi, will take a 500sq ft unit on the lower level opposite Barburrito and in the heart of the family food hall.
The restaurant will be the brand’s second site in the city and is set to open before Christmas offering fresh sushi and bento boxes alongside soups and other hot dishes.
Alice Keown, F&B asset manager for British Land, said: “Meadowhall’s £60m refurbishment has been a key factor in securing new brands. GBK and Let’s Sushi signing is particularly exciting as it will add even more variety and choice to the Oasis Dining Quarter from the food hall on the lower level, to the 16 family focussed restaurants on the upper level.
“Around 64% of our shoppers choose to have something to eat or drink when they visit, so we are constantly looking for new brands to refresh our offer and create an even more modern and vibrant dining experience.”
Keith Bird, chief operating officer for GBK, said: “We have been looking to secure a site in Meadowhall for some time and with so much momentum behind the refurbishment project, now seemed like the perfect moment to take space there. Located in a prime unit at the biggest retail destination in Yorkshire, the new restaurant will help to bring Gourmet Burger Kitchen to a much bigger local audience and is a very exciting next step for us.”
The centre’s £60m refurbishment will complete before Christmas.
