Marco Pierre White is opening the first Marco's New York Italian in the South West this summer, but rather than choose a city centre location his latest venture will be based near Thornbury. The celebrity chef, and passionate restaurateur, will be bringing one of his most popular restaurant brands to South Gloucestershire, with plans to open by the end of June.
Currently Bristol only boasts a Marco Pierre White Steakhouse, so this will be the first of the celebrity chef's Italian-American restaurants to open in the region. Like many of the Hell's Kitchen star's venues, it will be based in a hotel, The Gables, Falfield.
The three-star hotel near Thornbury, is close to the M5 and A38, perfect for locals, and people travelling through, to visit. Anthony Greenidge, general manager from The Gables said: “This brand-new New York Italian cuisine is perfect for The Gables Hotel. It represents friendly, casual dining and authentic, uncomplicated food.
