Tom Kerridge to open restaurant at The Stock Exchange Hotel in Manchester

Tom Kerridge is set to launch a new restaurant in the recently-renovated Stock Exchange Hotel in Manchester.

The Michelin-starred chef will oversee the food and drink offering at the boutique luxury hotel, working in partnership with backer group GG Hospitality, founded by Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs.

As well as his own venues in Marlow, The Hand and Flowers, The Coach and The Butcher's Tap, Tom Kerridge works with The Corinthia Hotel in London, running The Bar & Grill. 

More details about the project will be released in coming weeks, but for the time being, the chef simply said he's looking forward to bringing a touch of Marlow to Manchester.

“This is a really exciting opening for us. The hotel is going to be stunning and we’re very happy to be working with GG Hospitality. We can’t say much at this stage, but I can say that we’ll be bringing a bit of Marlow up to Manchester. We are very much looking forward to being a part of the city and joining the exciting and vibrant Manchester food scene,” he said.
