Chesterfield bar and restaurant enters administration

A Chesterfield bar, brasseries and delicatessen has slumped into administration less than a year after opening.

York House, which opened last August on the site of the former Abacus bar on St Mary’s Gate, has brought in fellow Chesterfield firm Restart BTi as administrators.

York House, which is owned by Christina and Daniel Power, serves breakfast and pastries in the morning as well as lunches and tapas. Drinks include real ales, craft beer, wines, prosecco and cocktails.

When York House opened last year, Dan Power told the press: “We are proud to be moving into this prestigious area and extremely excited about working with other local businesses, helping to give Chesterfield and its visitors a greater eating and drinking experience.”

The Abacus bar was closed in January after the company which ran it, Enjoy Pubs, was shut down following an insolvency investigation. Before that, the building was home to the Barracuda bar.
