Work gets underway on new Nottingham restaurant

Work has started on a new restaurant located at Cornerhouse. Popular chain restaurant Wingstop will be opening a new location on Forman Street.

The restaurant is taking over an empty unit that was formerly occupied by Pizza Hut which closed in October 2021. The chain restaurant has 18 different locations across the UK and looks set to soon. Nottingham property consultants, Box properties confirmed it is due to open in June.

Screens with the company's bold logo have been placed in front of the restaurant which has builder vans parked outside. A number of different units have received refurbishments recently along with the opening of Wingstop. Curry restaurant Tamatanga and Slug and Lettuce have all undergone a refurbishment in recent weeks.

Director of Box Properties, Frankie Labbate said: "Interest was really high in this unit. We had a number of national businesses who were desperate for the location but we went with Wingstop because they were a fresh emerging brand for the UK. They have lots of branches worldwide but we chose them for Cornerhouse because we thought they would be a great fit with places like Roxy Ballroom, Slug and Lettuce and Tamatanga.

"We felt it added to the mix quite nicely and gave the city something different. It also meant the Cornerhouse is full let which is great for the city and local area."

The American restaurant offers food options including crispy chicken wings, boneless wings, burgers and tenders. It also has a full range of dips so chicken fans can choose their spice levels from sweet to 'atomic.' They also have a Hawaiian dip option. The new dip is described as a 'fruity blend of island citrus with rich Asian flavors.'

The restaurant will join the vibrant food and drink scene at Cornerhouse which includes Roxy Ballroom, Bella Italia and Caribbean Restaurant and bar Turtle Bay.
