Experience

Our team has worked with some incredible cultural institutions and private businesses over the past 20 years.

We’ve operated cafes, restaurants and events operations within venues, gaining Michelin and AA awards along the way.

Externally, we’ve overseen multi-million pound multi-year hospitality projects from concept to opening, advising organisations every step of the way.

  • We have worked with some of the most prestigious cultural organisations, such as Opera North, Northern Stage and The Common Room on a diverse range of hospitality projects ranging in length from a few weeks to several years.

  • Our team has founded and operated restaurants, cafes and events businesses for over 20 years in iconic venues such as Baltic and The Sill, gaining invaluable experience in every aspect of hospitality operations.

  • We have built and managed multi-discipline teams of over 130 across multiple sites. We’re experts in identifying and recruiting hospitality talent, then creating the culture.

  • We have helped to create award winning venues that have gone on to gain recognition from The Michelin Guide, AA Guide and The Guardian.

  • We’re experts at helping cultural venues get the maximum commercial benefit from their hospitality spaces. In the past we’ve grown revenue from £300k to £3m in just a few years.

  • We’re up to date with the latest hospitality technology and know how to deploy it most effectively in cultural organisations.
