A new ‘Edwardian’ style restaurant is to launch at Springfields.
The Parlour is due to open on April 1 at the Springfields Shopping Outlet and is a venture between the Blue Diamond home and garden centre and scheme asset manager SLR
A Springfields spokesman said: “The Parlour restaurant is an authentic Edwardian-style high class restaurant, overlooking the nationally famous 25 acres of Springfields Festival Gardens.
“Serving an all-day menu with first class ingredients sourced locally, The Parlour enhances the experience with exceptional breakfast, brunch and afternoon tea menus.
“Designed to capture the best of the Age of Edwardian elegance with meticulous attention to detail, waiter service and ambience, The Parlour delivers a five-star experience and is a destination in its own right.
“The Parlour also enjoys direct access to Blue Diamond’s superb Home and Garden centre, via an innovative retractable corridor thus linking the Garden Centre to the Gardens for the first time.”
“The inspiration for The Parlour is to create a high level of gentrification and aspiration in our restaurant,” said Alan Roper, managing director of Blue Diamond. “A destination where the ambiance, quality of food, service, and point of difference is first rate.
“The décor and setting bring back the age of elegance from the Edwardian era with finely dressed ladies and gentlemen, conservatories and gardens.
“The restaurant will complement the gardens and satisfy guests who appreciate fine food and gardens.”
Ian Sanderson, director of Springfields Outlet and Leisure and SLR Outlets, said: “Springfields Outlet continues its transformation to an ever-more premium outlet centre with the forthcoming opening of The Parlour Restaurant, complementing brands like Dune London, Joules, White Stuff and Radley.
“The new restaurant will deliver an experience for our guests looking for something a little bit special during their visit. Edwardian elegance with a modern twist.”
