Notice Title

Concession to operate a Premium High Street (recognised) Bar Restaurant and Theatre Bar Concept at the University of Warwick

Notice Description

The University of Warwick is seeking expressions of interest for the grant of a concession to operate a Premium High Street (recognised) Bar Restaurant and Theatre Bar Concept from our newly refurbished, expanded and radically transformed Warwick Arts Centre. December 2020 will see the completion of one of the UK's unique Artist venues, offering galleries, cinemas and high volume theatre halls. We not only look forward to welcoming over 1 million visitors per annum, but playing a key role in the lives and experiences of over 30,000 students and staff on campus. As part of this PS30m investment we are seeking a high quality Food & Beverage offer and operator. The offer will be over two key locations, with a high volume bar led restaurant / food offer set out over 600 sq.ms., taking the prominent lead in the front of the building and the second location being a theatre break out bar in the heart of the Centre. Your organisation will be at a scale that is able to offer both Wet & Dry categories to not only a high quality but at volume and speed. We anticipate these units to be under high demand with peeks of extreme demand. Our consumers range in terms of their use of the facilities but are consistent in terms of the quality offer and delivery they expect.
