PROMOTION

SAN CARLO, the restaurant group that rekindled the North West's passion for Italian food, are set to open the doors to their latest Manchester operation on Thursday 27 November (Note: this date has been pushed back from the original date on Tuesday 25 November)

"This time we are bringing our late lounge element to Manchester, opening post-midnight on Friday and Saturday nights means people can come and enjoy a very special cocktail or glass of wine at San Carlo Fumo long after eating there.”

San Carlo Fumo - the fifth city site for the family-owned group - will occupy a grand 5,500sq ft site in the striking and soon-to-open One St Peter's Square opposite Central Library.

Spread over two floors and linked by a feature 'sweeping staircase', the new glossy and modern San Carlo will house a restaurant, cocktail bar/late lounge and outdoor terrace (see main image).

Fumo - pulling together winning elements from their other brands including Cicchetti on King Street West and Selfridge's Bottega - promises to be whatever you want it to be; whether that's a plush spot for brunch, quaffing cocktails and propping up the bar (headed up by Alessandro Distefano, son of founder Carlo), a quick Cichetti-brand small plate lunch or the full sit-down, three-course, all-Italian bells'n'whistles.

Commenting on the opening of Fumo, Marcello Distefano, Managing Director of San Carlo Group, said: 

“We’re understandably excited to be bringing an exciting new concept restaurant and bar to Manchester. We hope people will enjoy the grandeur of this striking new building and the lavish yet relaxed interior which I think has become synonymous with San Carlo.

"We know people enjoy our food and style of dining, this time we are bringing our late lounge element to Manchester, opening post-midnight on Friday and Saturday nights means people can come and enjoy a very special cocktail or glass of wine at San Carlo Fumo long after eating there.”

Open seven days a week from breakfast through to dinner with late opening hours on Friday and Saturday.
