CAR dealer Charles Hurst is to open a new café and restaurant at its Boucher Road site in Belfast.
The £300,000 project, set to open next week, will be run by Hospitality Belfast, a new joint venture between food operator Mount Charles and Portadown catering firm Yellow Door.
Located next to Charles Hurst’s new £8 million Jaguar Land Rover showroom, which opened last year, ‘Bolt’ café will create another 30 jobs on the 30-acre site.
Operations director of the Charles Hurst Group, Colin McNab, said: “The new café-restaurant is part of a long-considered idea to create an outstanding high-quality hospitality experience at our Belfast base.
“Working with Hospitality Belfast, we’ve created a unique, quality hospitality experience and I’m excited about the positive benefits it will provide to Charles Hurst and the wider area.”
Gavin Annon from Mount Charles, said the new venture will be a New York-style café, offering a casual dining experience and serving locally sourced coffee.
“Our focus will be on championing local producers and suppliers and we are certain that with such a wide range of businesses and shops located nearby, Bolt will be the perfect spot to relax and unwind.”
