Six by Nico to open new Leeds site

Restaurant group Six by Nico has recently announced it will be opening a new restaurant in Leeds this summer. 

The new 327 sq. metre Leeds location will open on East Parade on July 3rd and is the latest opening for the restaurant chain, following a period of significant growth.

Renowned for its inventive and ever-evolving restaurant concept, Six by Nico Leeds has a capacity for 72 guests and will also feature an onsite bar, with a full bar gantry, cocktail and wine service, serving trademark drinks such as Nico’s Three Aged Cocktails.

Founded by chef Nico Simeone, Six by Nico offers diners an affordable six-course tasting menu inspired by a theme, destination or concept. The creative tasting menu changes every six weeks, each with a different theme, inspiring the name Six by Nico.

Since launching in Finnieston in 2017, Six by Nico has opened locations in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Manchester, Liverpool, London Fitzrovia, London Canary Wharf, Belfast, Dublin and Aberdeen.

Now, Six by Nico will be opening its 12th venue, and first-ever Yorkshire restaurant, in Leeds, a move which will see up to 60 new jobs created for the local economy.

Simeone said: “We are very excited to be bringing the taste of Six by Nico to Leeds! The city has become a real foodie destination over recent years, which makes it the ideal location for us in the heart of Yorkshire.

“We pride ourselves on originality. Six by Nico is founded based on a carefully curated and ever-evolving tasting menu, which combines different ingredients, flavours and dishes, drawing inspiration from Yorkshire, the UK, as well as abroad.”

Simeone continued: “The aim is to bring memories and stories together, to create a brand-new dining experience every six weeks. We can’t wait to open our doors, and to be bringing a truly unique and unforgettable culinary experience to the people of Leeds and Yorkshire.”
