THE owners of London's famous Wolseley restaurant have announced they are opening a new cafe at Bicester Village.

Chris Corbin and Jeremy King say their new establishment will offer 'all-day cafe dining in the European style'.

Alongside 'classic Wolseley favourites', the Bicester branch will be offering new creations including a tarte flambée and a selection of seasonal salads.

A retail section promises to 'solve gifting dilemmas' with candles, glassware and silver as well as edible treats like florentines, shortbread, chocolate truffles and loose-leaf teas.

The cafe is due to open in 'late June'.

Jeremy King, CEO of Corbin & King, said: "We are delighted to be opening Cafe Wolseley.

"For many years we have wanted to extend the reach of The Wolseley, but it’s only now that we have found an opportunity to achieve that.

"As Value Retail continues to build its vision for Bicester Village, we are delighted to be part of its plans."

The restaurateur duo opened their prestigious first restaurant in a former car showroom at 160 Piccadilly – next door to the Ritz hotel – in 2003.

With its Art Deco interior, swift service and style, the restaurant quickly earned the reputation which the company now describes as 'one of London’s most respected all-day café-restaurants', making it 'an iconic institution the world over'.

Corbin and King say their new venture at Bicester Village, with a 'smart black-and-white chevron floor, hand-painted Chinoiserie murals and double-volume vaulted ceiling' will reflect the famous style of their flagship.

Scott Malkin, founder and chairman of Value Retail which runs The Bicester Village Shopping Collection, said: "A sophisticated shopping experience calls for an equally stylish dining offer and, with its reputation for uncompromising excellence in menu, service and surroundings, The Wolseley certainly sets the bar.

"It is both an honour and a delight to welcome an establishment of this extraordinary pedigree to Bicester Village."

The news comes just weeks after The Ivy announced it was opening a new restaurant in the former NatWest building in Oxford High Street.
