Top female entrepeneur set to launch £1.5m restaurant

MANCHESTER’s Female Young Entrepreneur of the Year, Karina Jadhav, has announced plans for a luxury £1.5m restaurant at One New Bailey in Salford.

Jadhav is the former co-founder and creator of Neighbourhood, Victors Hale and Southern Eleven.

Her latest venture will develop and converge the genres of gastronomy, art and performance, introducing the next level of immersive dining in the North West.

Having spent the last eight months travelling the USA and Europe for inspiration and planning the project in detail, Jadhav’s latest dining experience Menagerie is set to open in late summer.

She said: “Myself and the team are very excited to see the plans for Menagerie come to fruition following many months of hard work. The opening will provide a vital opportunity to introduce a new wave of experiential vibrant dining to Manchester, which really represents my personal evolution in the industry.”

Jadhav explained the reasoning behind the unusual name: “A menagerie is a collection of the enticing and exotic, which is exactly what my concept will bring to Manchester. It’s all about every aspect of the guest’s experience.”

Menagerie has taken 6,000sq ft on the ground floor within One New Bailey, a new state-of-the-art office and leisure development. It will share the building with leading international law firm Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer which has taken 80,000sq ft.  

Adjacent to Spinningfields and next to Salford Central station, New Bailey development was be the perfect location to launch her latest project.

English Cities Fund Development director Phil Mayall said: “One New Bailey is a new hub for business and leisure so we are delighted to welcome Menagerie on board. We wanted to bring a dining experience unlike no other in Manchester so partnering up with Menagerie made perfect sense to us.

“We firmly believe that the New Bailey development is strengthening the city’s business and leisure value through its pioneering building One New Bailey and future exciting developments.”

Salford City Mayor Ian Stewart added: “New Bailey is a key element of our innovative growth plans which are increasing the economic vitality and competitiveness of Salford and Manchester’s expanding city centre.

“The New Bailey riverside location is providing a thriving leisure, business and commercial quarter and Menagerie’s opening is exciting news.”
