Press Release
On Thursday 15th September 2022, The Real Greek (www.therealgreek.com), the UK’s only group of authentic Greek restaurants, will open a brand new location in bustling shopping and dining destination, Gloucester Quays, situated in Gloucester Docks – a stone’s throw from the city centre.
The opening marks the third new restaurant opening in 2022, following new locations in popular northern cities, Manchester and Newcastle, and outlines the brand’s continued expansion and desire to serve up contemporary Aegean dining experiences across the UK.
The new 170-cover restaurant boasts indoor and outdoor alfresco seating and is situated near the prominent entrance of Gloucester Quays, a well-frequented designer outlet.
The Real Greek Gloucester Quays will open with an exciting special offer, providing diners with 50% off food from the Main Menu from Monday 19th – Thursday 22nd September. The offer will be available each day for dine-in only.
Gloucester Quays is a heavy footfall dining and shopping destination in Gloucester. Outlined as a local crown jewel of urban development, the expansive area is home to over 50 retail destinations, popular eateries, several historical museums and a large multiplex cinema. The area is popular during the Christmas period also, playing host to one of Gloucester’s few pop-up ice rinks.
The Real Greek Gloucester will bring all the fun and energy of quintessential Greek dining to the Quays. The restaurant is perfect for dates, get-togethers and catching up with friends. Also perfect for families, as kids eat free at The Real Greek every Sunday when an accompanying adult spends £10 in the restaurant, showcasing an ideal and affordable Sunday day out for families. This will be The Real Greek’s 24th site; its 12th outlet outside of the capital and the third new restaurant to open in 2022. Following the strong demand for authentic Greek cuisine, The Real Greek continues to expand its portfolio of restaurants around the country.
