Vagabond opens first airport site at Heathrow
The Heathrow site will become the 11th in the group, with nine venues already trading across London and a recent opening in Birmingham
Vagabond Bar and Kitchen has announced it will launch its first airport site this week at Heathrow’s Terminal 5, following a £1.2m investment.
The new site will be composed of 4,500 square feet, with space for 170 guests, and it will create 60 new jobs.
Over 100 varieties of wine will be served via Vagabond’s wine dispensers and the venue will also be home to one of the brand’s self-pour craft beer walls.
For the first time, the Vagabond site will also offer “extensive” breakfast, lunch and dinner menus, as well as bar snacks, cocktails and a children’s menu.
Open seven days a week, travellers will be able to access all day brunch, grills and sharing boards, to cocktails, smoothies and hot drinks.
Matt Fleming, managing director at Vagabond Bar and Kitchen, said: “This is a really exciting step into the airport environment for Vagabond and the Heathrow site will expose millions of guests to the Vagabond concept per year.
“We have ambitious growth plans to open further sites across the country and this new venue is also a fantastic foothold for potential future international expansion. We can’t wait to introduce the Vagabond way to people from around the world, giving them the perfect start to their journey.”
