LAVENDER HILL GETS A TASTE FOR WIMPY WITH NEW RESTAURANT 

Wimpy, the well-loved and original British burger restaurant, received a warm welcome from shoppers in SW11, as it opened the doors to its new premises on Lavender Hill, near Clapham Junction, last Tuesday 12th January.

 

The restaurant was officially opened with a ribbon cutting ceremony by franchisee and local resident Odile Ham, accompanied by her son Michael, the new manager, as well as staff at the restaurant.

 

The Lavender Hill restaurant is the first venture into the Wimpy franchise for Odile, who has worked in the food service industry for 25 years.

 

Commenting on her new restaurant, Odile said: “2010 has certainly got off to a flying start, and I am thrilled to have become part of the Wimpy family. In my home country of South Africa, Wimpyis a well loved family brand where customers return again and again. I want to create this in the Lavender Hill restaurant.

 

“The opening day was a huge success and I want to thank the Lavender Hill community for being so welcoming. I look forward to meeting all the new customers when they come into the restaurant and whether it’s for coffee and cake or lunch with friends, the new Wimpy menu will cater to all tastes.”

 

The opening day celebrations kicked off with music from Radio Jackie, which broadcast live from the restaurant and kept the crowds entertained with competitions and offers on food and drink. The Wimpy team was also on hand welcoming customers through the doors to join in the fun and try out the mouthwatering menu.  The staff served up a range of tempting meals, including the classic ‘Quarterpounder with Cheese’ and ‘Bender in a Bun’, as well as introducing new dishes, such as ‘Hot and Spicy Chicken’ and the ‘Steak Platter’. 

 

Those with a sweet tooth also enjoyed one of Wimpy’s delicious desserts, such as the Knickerbocker Glory or Brown Derby – Wimpy’s signature doughnut and ice cream pudding.

 

With more than 162 restaurants across the UK and a history spanning more than 50 years, Wimpyis still a firm favourite in the hearts and minds of the British public.  Now, with increased investment from new owners, Wimpy restaurants across the land will be getting a facelift to make them even more popular with their loyal customers.

 

Lavender Hill is now the 15th restaurant in the UK to pioneer the new Wimpy look.
