Located within the group’s hotel in the Northern city, Pearly Cow will serve a menu of fish, seafood and vegetables cooked over a wood.
Two more restaurants are planned within the group’s upcoming hotels in Margate and Brighton, but BigHospitality understands that the group will eventually look to open standalone sites in addition to ones within its own hotels.
GuestHouse was launched in 2021 by brothers Tristan, James and Tom Guest and currently operates hotels in Bath and York with Margate set to launch in spring this year and Brighton set to launch in 2024.
Front of house legend Diego Masciaga is working with the trio as a consultant.
Pearly Cow York will have 58-covers and will offer dishes including 45-day aged Hereford beef tartare and oyster cream with salted cucumber and Exmoor caviar; charcoal roasted aubergine, sweet and sour peppers, kale pesto and rose harissa; and blackberry and lemon baked Alaska for two.
Pearly Cow will be a seven-day operation open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
The fire and ice concept is something we are hugely passionate about,” says James. “With their budding and established foodie scenes, the vibrant towns and cities of York, Margate and Brighton are the perfect fit. We’re working together with an exceptional food and drink specialist team, and we’re excited to finally launch Pearly Cow to the public in March.”
