Gourmet Burger Kitchen opening in Stockport

Gourmet Burger Kitchen is the latest in a string of restaurants committed to open in Stockport.

Gourmet Burger Kitchen will be opening at Redrock in Stockport, making them part of the town’s new leisure development.

With a distinctive offer, Gourmet Burger Kitchen’s announcement makes them the third high quality restaurant to commit their future to Redrock. Pizza Express and Zizzi have also already signed up to be part of the new £45 million development alongside The Light Cinema, when it opens its doors in late 2017.

Gourmet Burger Kitchen (GBK) take a new approach to the burger scene, serving up a variety of freshly prepared dishes and has become a popular destination with diners in recent years across the UK.

The new 3,000 sq ft restaurant at Redrock is a boost for the town and shows how companies are keen to be part of Stockport’s future.

Work at Redrock Stockport is now well underway, on track and is scheduled to open in 2017.

Councillor Kate Butler, Executive Member for Economy and Regeneration at Stockport Council said: “I am delighted to welcome GBK to Stockport. Their decision to join us at Redrock is a real boost for the town and its growing food offer. Redrock will be a great addition to our town centre and its popularity with restaurant operators shows the opportunities this will offer for businesses and residents. I look forward to welcoming GBK in person when they open in 2017.”

Andrew Reavley of letting agents Lunson Mitchenall said “GBK takes the development to around 60% pre-let and the quality of tenant line up is testimony to the trading potential of the scheme. We are in active discussions with further occupiers on the small number of remaining units”.

The 75,000 sq ft retail and leisure development is transforming an area in the heart of Stockport town centre, alongside the busy M60 motorway, into a ‘must visit’ destination bringing a new vibrancy to the town. Redrock is part of a £1 billion programme that is underway in Stockport which will transform the town and build on the many strengths of the borough.

GVA and Lunson Mitchenall are appointed as agents for Redrock Stockport.
