Woodhead opens fifth restaurant in Fitzrovia

Woodhead Restaurant Group has opened its fifth restaurant and its third in Fitzrovia at 64 Goodge Street, Shaftesbury Capital has announced.

Taking the name of its home address, the Gallic-inspired restaurant spans 1,600 sq ft and joins Woodhead’s Portland and Cliptone concepts in the neighbourhood.

Providing 34 covers and an additional 10 in a private dining room, 64 Goodge Street offers an English and French-inspired menu, with an emphasis on wine from the Burgundy region.

Andrew Price, executive director at Shaftesbury Capital, said: “64 Goodge Street further strengthens our portfolio in Fitzrovia, joining the unique line-up of destination dining concepts offering an unrivalled choice of global cuisine. Woodhead Restaurant Group have operated around here for many years to great acclaim; they understand what really appeals to all those that live, work, and visit this historic West End neighbourhood.”

DCL acted on behalf of Shaftsbury Capital for the deal.

The news follows last month’s opening of MealTime Malatang’s European debut, the Chinese restaurant also launching on Goodge Street.
