The new venue opened on 28 August at waterside shopping development Gloucester Quays in Gloucester, owned by Peel Group.

We have experienced great success in opening in locations with shopping and leisure facilities. The combination of the two provides a platform for trading across the day. I am also pleased to announce that we will open a further two restaurants by the end of the year."

Gater added: "The brand continues to trade well, with strong like for like sales. We continue to please the customer with our policy of over delivering on quality and value."
