The move follows the success of Café 21 at Fenwick in Newcastle, where Laybourne has also partnered with the department store.
Due to open in early November, its launch will bring the number of restaurants in the 21 Hospitality Group to seven. The group also comprises Café 21, Saltwater Fish Company and Porterhouse Butcher and Grill, all within Fenwick’s Newcastle store, and flagship restaurant 21, the Broad Chare and St.Vincent on Newcastle’s Quayside.
“This is an exciting time for 21 Hospitality Group and I’m delighted to be once again working with Fenwick to introduce our dining experience to another of their stores,” says Laybourne.
“We’ve already collaborated on a number of restaurant projects and it’s a partnership that works very well, so I’m looking forward to bringing our great food to locals and visitors to York.”
“We are very much looking forward to the launch of Café 21 in our store. Visitors to Fenwick in Newcastle have been enjoying Terry Laybourne’s great food for almost 15 years and I’m thrilled that visitors to the York store will soon be able to indulge in the same experience,” says Neil Setterfield, store director at Fenwick in York.
“Terry is an expert in his field, and highly regarded in the hospitality industry, so we are privileged that he’s bringing his food to Yorkshire.”
