Marco Pierre White set to open new steakhouse restaurant

Marco Pierre White is set to open a brand new Steakhouse Bar & Grill in Sheffield.

The new restaurant in Sheffield will open at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel, Sheffield Park,  replacing the venue’s former Piano Restaurant.

Set to open its doors in June, this venture follows on from a deal struck between Vine Hotels, which owns and operates the venue, and Black And White Hospitality, which is the franchising arm of Pierre White’s restaurants.

The menu will be exclusively curated by Marco and is expected to include “a mix of childhood favourites and modern-day delicacies.”

Garin Davies, chief executive of Vine Hotels, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to have someone of Marco’s calibre open one of his restaurants at DoubleTree by Hilton, Sheffield. It clearly demonstrates our commitment to continually bring the best to the venue and we can’t wait for the summer.

“It’s a hugely exciting addition that will, we believe, offer a first-class dining experience and complements not only the accommodation but also the conferencing, banqueting, wedding and leisure facilities.

“The arrival of Marco will now reinforce this position and raises the bar in terms of what people can come to expect at restaurants in the region. We look forward to welcoming guests when it opens.”

Nick Taplin, chairman and CEO of Black And White Hospitality, added: “This is fantastic news for Sheffield as well as Black And White. The Steakhouse fits perfectly with DoubleTree and we already have a number of hugely successful restaurants trading under this popular Hilton brand.

“Black and White Hospitality has a very strong portfolio and our business model of aligning the restaurant brands with hotels is one that has proved very successful in the UK as we approach our 50th venue.”
