Business
This bar and restaurant business opened as the Silk Room in 2005 and quickly established a reputation for the quality of food and service levels. The food had an emphasis on local produce with a modern British menu that included fish and meat dishes.
The business won a number of awards over the years but recently ceased trading as the owner wished to concentrate on their other business commitments.
The space is all on one floor and is configured with a dining room at the front and then service and kitchen facilities towards the rear. There is a separate bar and waiting area as you walk into the unit and the dining room was fully refurbished to a high standard in 2022.
The unit is ready to occupy by a new operator and viewing is recommended to appreciate the fit out and the opportunity that the space offers .
