Burger chain Byron is making its Welsh debut with a branch at St David’s in Cardiff.
Its first branch in Wales, taking 5,150 sq ft across two levels on Grand Arcade on a 25-year lease, is due to open this summer.
Paul Coppin, marketing director at Byron said: “Over the years we’ve had customers ask when we’ll be opening here, so it’s a pleasure to finally be able to give them the answer they’re looking for. We can’t wait to welcome the people of Cardiff to our first Welsh branch, in St David’s.”
Speaking on behalf of the St David’s Partnership, a joint venture between Land Securities and intu, Colin Flinn, the regional director at intu, added: “Byron is an exciting brand for St David’s. This offer is an excellent addition that sits well alongside the casual dining on Tredgar Street and The Hayes.”
St David’s is anchored by the largest John Lewis outside London, Debenhams and Marks & Spencer, and also has 200 other shops and restaurants.
In addition Caffè Nero recently joined St David’s. The new 1,142 sq ft café, located on Cathedral Walk, officially launched earlier this month.
JLL and Cushman & Wakefield advised the St David’s Partnership. Lunson Mitchenall acted on behalf of Byron and Calan Retail represented Caffè Nero.
