- River Cottage Canteen and Deli plans to open in October after completing successful planning and licensing applications this week in Plymouth
The River Cottage Canteen and Deli, which last week signed a 25-year lease on the Brewhouse building, with Urban Splash, now hopes to open in October.
It will be based on the River Cottage Canteen and Deli in Axminster, which was originally set up by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, campaigner, broadcaster and food writer, who’s River Cottage TV series, on Channel 4, captured the Nation’s interest in food provenance and sustainable living.
Now building on its initial success, River Cottage will make a substantial six-figure investment, to re-create its unique food offering in a stunning waterside ex-Naval heritage building. The Grade I Listed Brewhouse building, part of the historical Royal William Yard scheme which is being redeveloped by award winning regeneration company Urban Splash, is situated right on the facing Mount Edgcumbe. It features a triple height ceiling, and will have a large outdoor terrace, affording spectacular views of The Tamar River, and looks out towards The Sound.
The River Cottage Canteen and Deli, in Plymouth, will offer a unique combination of fantastic seasonal, local, organic and wild food, both in the relaxed ambiance of the restaurant and to take away from the Deli.
