Gaucho to open three new sites
The company is also launching its first site in the North East on Newcastle’s Pilgrim Street
Argentine steakhouse Gaucho has announced that it is set to open three new sites in the next three months.
One of the sites will open in London’s Covent Garden, the company’s first London opening since 2009. The 7000 sq ft restaurant will be aimed at pre and post theatre dining.
As well as this, Gaucho will open a 8500 sq ft site in Cardiff that covers 220 diners and is spread across two storeys.
The company is also launching its first site in the North East on Newcastle’s Pilgrim Street.
The new openings come as a result of strong trading for the company. It posted a record breaking turnover of £73m last year up from £55m.
CEO Martin Williams said: “I’m delighted to announce a wave of new Gaucho openings across the UK, particularly our first London opening for over a decade. With all the headwinds facing our sector (in London more than anywhere else) it would be easy to focus outside of London – but Gaucho was born in the West End.
“We have enjoyed fantastic post-pandemic trading in the capital and are beyond confident that Gaucho Covent Garden will be a triumph. Our recent openings in Glasgow and Liverpool have been incredibly well received and I have no doubt that Cardiff and Newcastle will be too.”
