CafeBar Nineteen62 opens first shopping centre location at Livingston Designer Outlet
Family-owned café and bar concept CafeBar Nineteen62 has opened its first ever shopping centre location at Livingston Designer Outlet.
Spanning 3,789 sq ft, Cafebar Nineteen62 Livingston will become the operator’s third location, and will offer food and drink alongside a regular live music line-up.
The venue will look to redefine the culinary offering at the designer outlet with its ‘dine or don’t’ tagline. Its offering isn’t defined by café, bar or restaurant status, allowing it to cater to the needs of individual customers.
The venue also features an outdoor area suitable for all-year-round al fresco dining with 200 seats, private pods, and fire pits.
Nicky Lovell, head of retail and business development at Global Mutual, said: “CafeBar Nineteen62 is a fresh and exciting concept with a visionary owner – we’re very excited as it really plays into our strategy of creating retail third spaces. Visitors need more than shops and by transforming the centre into a dynamic environment, which creates connections and cultivates customer loyalty, we are likely to see customers increasing dwell-time and repeat visitation.
“Nineteen62 offers Livingston’s customers an opportunity to stay later – meeting friends, eating great food or having a cocktail and listening to live music. This moves beyond the standard shopping experience allowing visitors to foster a sense of affinity for the centre. […] Cafebar Nineteen62 is sure to be a big hit.”
