The Ivy Collection announces opening date for first Warwickshire brasserie
The Ivy Collection has announced the opening date for its first Warwickshire brasserie.
Set to be the collection’s 47th restaurant, the brasserie will be within walking distance of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre at 33-35 High Street, Stratford-upon-Avon.
And reservations are now open for the venue, which will open on Tuesday September 29.
The restaurant celebrated the news with a Shakespearean spectacle through the streets of Stratford, as actors from theatre company Tread the Boards brought Romeo and Juliet to life, dressed in costumes from the Royal Shakespeare Company and accompanied by violinists from SE Strings.
Richard Chiswell, general manager of the Brasserie, said: “Theatre and storytelling are such an important part of Stratford-upon-Avon’s character, so what better way to celebrate the opening of our reservation lines than with a little drama of our own.
"Speaking to local people and hearing their excitement about the opening has made the occasion even more special and we can’t wait to welcome our first guests on September 29.”
