SIX Company, the Glasgow-based company behind the Six by Nico restaurants, has announced ambitious plans to launch three new venues across the city.
Chief executive and founder Nico Simeone confirmed three new Glasgow openings and a three million pound investment into the city's restaurant scene including a new flagship Six by Nico Glasgow restaurant location in Merchant City.
The other two locations will see the addition of Sole Club in Finnieston, which will pay homage to the original idea that launched the Six by Nico journey - 'The Chippie' - as well as further investment at Six by Nico Byres Road with the introduction of Somewhere by Nico - a new cocktail bar.
Having already opened fifteen sites throughout the UK and Ireland, this marks a new phase for the group with Six by Nico Merchant City (concept below) set to open on January 15 2024 at 64 Albion St.
The existing Glasgow Finnieston Six by Nico location will close on January 14, with Sole Club taking its place. Paying homage to the original creative that kick started the Six by Nico journey - ‘The Chippie’, one side will host a chippie takeaway, looking to offer new twists on the traditional takeaway.
The other side of Sole Club's concept is tucked away, a 22-seat speakeasy-style fish restaurant that takes pride in using the best Scottish ingredients. It will open its doors at 1132 Argyle St, Finnieston in February 2024.
The final investment for the first quarter of 2024 in Glasgow for Six Company will bring a new cocktail tasting experience to Glasgow's West End.
Somewhere by Nico (concept above) will look to redefine what a bar experience looks like by blending storytelling, multi-sensory mixology and experience together. Influenced by Six by Nico, Somewhere will look to create a six stage two hour cocktail experience every six weeks from £60pp. Somewhere by Nico will offer what is believed to be Scotland's first ever cocktail tasting experience with paired dishes and will open in February 2024 at 358 Byres Rd.
Simeone said: “Our team is driven daily by the challenge to constantly create and reinvent. We are dedicated to being different, never resting on our laurels, and continuously striving to create the best customer experiences. Marking our six-year journey with such a significant evolution of experiences in our home town and reaffirming our commitments to the city seems like the best way to celebrate the next stage in our company vision.“
