Banyan Bar & Kitchen set for Ilkley launch

Banyan in Manchester

Banyan Bar & Kitchen is set to launch in Ilkley after securing a 5,000 sq ft site.

Arc Inspirations has acquired the lease from restaurant Wildwood and plans to revamp the site, which will be its seventh Banyan Bar & Kitchen.

Harrogate, Horsforth, Roundhay, Manchester, York and Leeds are already home to Banyan Bar & Kitchen, with Arc Inspirations boasting a portfolio of 15 bars in the North of England under brands including Manahatta, the Pit, Trio, the Box and Kith & Kin.

This year saw the group launch Manahatta in Leeds.

Martin Wolstencroft, chief executive of Arc Inspirations, said: “I’m extremely proud to have exchanged on this new venue in less than three days – that’s a record for us. It’s a real credit to our team who worked professionally and quickly to ensure a quick exchange.”

The launch of the Ilkley site is expected in October.
