The Ivy Collection set to open its 41st restaurant

This October, Canterbury is set to welcome a new addition to its dining scene as The Ivy Collection prepares to open its 41st restaurant in the heart of the city.

Located at the corner of The Parade & Rose Lane, The Ivy Canterbury Brasserie will offer something special every day of the week. The restaurant will seat up to 180 guests for early morning breakfasts through to late-night cocktails, complete with a stylish bar and outdoor terrace. For those seeking an intimate setting, the venue also features a private dining room seating up to 16 guests.

The menu features a wide array of modern, seasonal dishes. Guests will be able to choose from classics such as Shepherd's Pie and Blackened Cod or explore new flavours with dishes like Artichoke and Sweet Potato Tagine. The carefully curated drinks menu will include expertly crafted cocktails, a variety of Champagne and a selection of fine wines.

Beyond the dining experience, The Ivy Canterbury Brasserie will contribute to the local community by creating 140 jobs in Canterbury’s hospitality sector. At the helm of this new venture will be general manager Diogo Bolan, who brings experience from The Ivy Wimbledon, and head chef Ilias Kalogiannis, whose culinary history spans more than a decade.

Laura Mills, MD of The Ivy Collection, says of the opening: “We’re thrilled to bring The Ivy experience to Canterbury. The city’s rich history and vibrant culture make it the perfect location for our next restaurant. We can’t wait to open our doors this autumn and become part of the Canterbury community, sharing countless special moments and wonderful meals together.”
