Tapas restaurant brand invests £250k in new Leeds city centre restaurant

Tapas restaurant La Casita has invested £250k in the launch of a new Leeds city centre location in Granary Wharf.

Set to open on Friday 17th November on Little Neville St, the restaurant will feature traditional Andalusian tapas and a hand selection of wines and cocktails.

Following the opening of its flagship restaurant in Ilkley, the brand has expanded with new openings in Boston Spa and Horsforth.

The new restaurant’s arch way location and interior will feature a bar offering local gins, martinis, cava’s, sherries, sangria and Spanish craft ales.

Co-owned by Simon Miller and Oliver Renton, both chefs, and business partner Ben Riley, the restaurant will serve traditional Spanish tapas using authentic ingredients and Yorkshire produce for lunch and dinner.

Simon Miller, co-owner and chef of La Casita, said: “Myself, Oliver and Ben are really excited to be introducing our authentic concept in Leeds. We have ambitious UK wide expansion plans for La Casita.

“We recognise there is a lot of competition in the city centre, but we are confident that our offer is unique and our success to date brings with it a great reputation for fantastic traditional tapas and more importantly great service.”

The deal for the La Casita Granary Wharf site was supported by Watsons Law.
