Indian gastropub operator, Soho Tavern Group, has acquired its ninth site . The company has added The Counting House in Leicester to its portfolio, on a long lease from from Greene King. In January, Soho Taverns acquired the Berry Brook Farm in Wednesfield on the outskirts of Wolverhampton. The deal followed the opening of its seventh venue – the former Greene King-owned Old School House pub site in Mere Green – at the end of last year. The company, which was founded in 2014 by brothers Mikey and Danny Singh, is also progressing on a site in Leeds.
Mikey Singh said: “Leicester is officially counted in as Soho Taverns’ ninth site, marking another important milestone in our continued growth. As part of our plans, we’re focused on establishing a strong match day presence, with the ambition of becoming the go to destination for both Leicester Tigers and Leicester City supporters, delivering an elevated food, drink, and atmosphere-led experience.”
