Bill’s to hit 38 sites by the end of June – adds to retail offer: Bill’s Restaurants, owned by Richard Caring, will hit 38 sites by the end of June. It has opened in Tunbridge Wells, Eastbourne, Kingston and Worcester and will open in Bury St Edmunds, Norwich and Nottingham next month. A spokesman said: “We will be opening further restaurants over the coming months, including Manchester and York. Bury St Edmunds, opening 9 June, will be a lovely restaurant in a quirky area of this pretty town. Formerly a bank, there are cosy booths where the bank vaults used to be, and a generous garden with seating to the back of the restaurant. The Norwich site, opening on 16 June, is right in the middle of town, close to the famous market. It will be one of our largest, with plenty of seating on the ground floor and even more upstairs, where there is also a private dining area. The Nottingham site, opening on 23 June, is formerly a bank – this Georgian building is going to be a beauty. With high ceilings and a striking mezzanine, it’s a bright open space for breakfast and lunch that will transform into a space of twinkling lights in the evening. We have continued to grow our retail offering, and our two latest products are pink lemonade and oaties. The pink lemonade – in a beautiful pink and silver bottle – is made for us by a small artisan company in France, which has been making lemonade for over 100 years. We have two types of oaties – chocolate and Brazil nut and chunky toffee. They’re made for us by Frank’s Luxury Biscuits, using a recipe passed down through four generations of Frank’s family.”
