Lussmanns Sustainable Fish and Grill to open first Oxford location
The 2,750sq ft will mark the chain’s sixth opening to date, and its first since July 2017.
With 80 covers, the restaurant will focus on the brand’s ethos of making ethical and sustainable dining accessible.
“I’m absolutely delighted to be able to announce that we will be opening in Jericho,” says group founder Andrei Lussmann.
“I’ve always loved this district of Oxford and it seems like the perfect fit, it will be a pleasure to join my thriving peers on this bustling High Street.
“I’m looking forward to seeing what a new county brings.”
Lussmann previously worked for Fish Diner and Corney & Barrow in the City of London before setting up his eponymous restaurant group in the capital in 2002.
The group moved to Hertfordshire in 2004 and has since opened restaurants across the county including in St Albans, Harpenden and Hitchin.
Hospitality entrepreneur Luke Johnson became a major shareholder in Lussmanns back in 2016 to help spearhead the group’s expansion plans.
Lussmanns is a founder member of the Sustainable Restaurant Association (SRA) and holds the maximum three-star sustainability rating.
Earlier this year it was announced that the group had become the only group in the UK to offer a menu that is 100% Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certified.
