63rd+1st Edinburgh to open in Q2
Named after 63rd Street and 1st Avenue in Manhattan, New York, 63rd+1st will also offer a ‘diverse’ food menu inspired by the ‘street food’ of Manhattan
63rd+1st, part of the newly listed Hostmore plc, has announced its next location will be situated on Frederick Street in the centre of Scotland’s capital city, Edinburgh.
Opening its doors in Q2 of 2022, the venue will be the fifth 63rd+1st to open in a year. Spanning approximately 3,500 square feet, the cocktail-led bar and restaurant will feature a “spacious” lounge area adjacent to the restaurant space, seating over 100 guests inside, with an additional 26 covers available on a heated outside terrace.
Named after 63rd Street and 1st Avenue in Manhattan, New York, 63rd+1st will also offer a “diverse” food menu inspired by the ‘street food’ scene in Manhattan and is centred on smaller sharing plates.
Robert B. Cook, CEO of 63rd+1st, said: “We are delighted to be bringing the fifth 63rd+1st to the capital of Scotland, a city we know well, and in doing so continue to share the 63rd+1st experience with guests from across this great city and region. Situated a stone’s throw from George Street, and a short walk from most of Edinburgh’s great hospitality venues, we simply love the location of our first Edinburgh venue.
“63rd+1st represents the coming together of people, culture, tastes and styles. Our menu will undoubtedly entertain and excite all our guests courtesy of fantastic cocktails created by a team of expert bartenders and our New York City street food inspired menu, all of which emphasises our brand premise that ‘Life Tastes Better Shared.”
He added: “Whether it’s business or pleasure, student or tourist, you will be made to feel at home in our beautiful venue, which has been inspired by over 50 years of unique heritage and is guaranteed to be the place where ‘great things happen’.”
