Pizza Express opens tenth restaurant in the City
The group, which last week announced plans to roll out its radical “New Generation” restaurant design, has taken a 25-year lease on the former site of Il Locale.
The 4,400sqft site is understood to have been let for around £100k per year.
Jason Grant, director for Restaurant Property who advised Pizza Express on the deal, said: “Pizza Express was the first of the larger operators to divine the changing dynamics that have made the Square Mile a much more attractive place for restaurants at a similar price point.
“They have led the way in creating a much more welcoming and inclusive City that is now serving the dining needs of a much wider proportion of its workers, visitors and residents.”
