Restaurant magazine’s R200 list 2012: 101-200

While Gondola Group topped this year's R200 list of the 200 largest restaurant and food-led pub operators in the UK, those appearing in the second half of the list are attracting just as much attention as the larger players.

Red Hot World Buffet, which recently reaffirmed it's aim to open 25 new sites by 2015, is 105 on this year's list, while Ricker Restaurants, which has recently been the subject of our Business Profile, is at 107.

Further down the list, Mexican chain Barburrito is placed 124, having revealed plans to triple its portfolio to 18 sites over the next four years. Charlie McVeigh's The Draft House comes in at 155, having continued its expansion across London with a number of new pub openings.
