A POPULAR Friar Street bar has closed its doors for a rebrand and major refurbishment.
Bristol-based interior design company Simple Simon is currently working on the Conservatory’s new look, which will see the bar boast a new layout and makeover with open brickwork, abstract tiles and wood cladding, and be accessorised with brightly coloured bric-a-brac.
Due to reopen this Friday, the Conservatory will unveil its new look with a new partnership with local burger hero Carl Sampson.
Mr Sampson is the man behind what The Times dubbed ‘Britain’s Best Burger Van’, and he is now set to take the helm in the Conservatory kitchen.
He is also known for taking part in reality TV series ‘Best Chef, Worst Chef’ in 2015, which paired him with celebrity chef Daniel Clifford.
This gave Mr Sampson the opportunity to work in the double Michelin-starred Midsummer House in Cambridge, where he later turned down an apprenticeship opportunity so he could return home to his Worcester-based family and gourmet burger van.
