A new Japanese restaurant concept is set to open at the Goods Yard development in Stoke-on-Trent later this year.
Panko & Sushi will occupy a 1,650 square-foot unit on the ground floor of the Goods Yard apartment building.
Founded by Edward Cayton, who has 27 years of experience in the hospitality sector, Panko & Sushi offers a contemporary take on Japanese cuisine.
He said: “We’ve always believed in finding neighbourhoods with real character and buzz, and Goods Yard has that in spades. There’s a great energy and community vibe here – it’s the perfect spot for Panko & Sushi to land in Stoke.
We can’t wait to open our doors and start serving up fresh, flavour-packed dishes to our new neighbours.”
The Goods Yard development, led by social impact developer Capital&Centric, includes rental apartments, workspaces and a range of commercial units intended for independent businesses. Panko & Sushi will join independent bakery and café Cotton, which is set make its Midlands debut, at the scheme.
Tom Wilmot, joint managing director at Capital&Centric, said: “Having Panko & Sushi choose Goods Yard shows how this new neighbourhood is already turning heads. Its energy and creativity fit perfectly with what we’re all about – bringing authentic, independent vibes to the heart of Stoke-on-Trent.”
