Fridays lands in Durham

American-inspired cocktail bar and restaurant chain Fridays will open its first venue in Durham tomorrow (16 December).

Fridays Durham will sit within a 6,000 sq. ft unit in the heart of the city's bustling open-air plaza, The Riverwalk. The new restaurant, which follows Fridays’ recent Barnsley opening, is creating 70 jobs for people in the Durham area.

This festive season, guests at the new restaurant – and across the UK – can expect a host of spectacular offers at Fridays, including 2-for-1 cocktails all day, every day, the new Festive Bottomless Brunch for £29.95 per person, and endless chicken wings for £15 per person, with American Pilsner available for £4 during sporting events (terms and conditions apply).

Julie McEwan, COO of the group, comments: "We are so pleased to be ending 2022 on such a high note by celebrating the opening of our newest restaurant just in time for Christmas. Durham is a city rich in history and culture, and with Fridays being a brand where honouring our heritage is a significant part of our offering, we feel that the match couldn’t be more ideal. We look forward to opening our doors to the people of Durham and encouraging them to ‘show their stripes’, whatever they may be, while wowing them with memorable service alongside our favourite Fridays classics. From our famous burgers and legendary chicken strips to our vegan fajitas and Pornstar Martinis, guests will be spoiled for choice."
