Revealed last year, the 12,500 sq ft site will be located within the space that was once home to TGI Fridays on Bedford Street.
Joining Arcade sites in Tottenham Court Road and Battersea Power Station, Arcade Covent Garden will have room for 385 covers across a single floor and is described as ‘the most ambitious expression of the Arcade model to date’.
The space will be home to several brands that already have a presence at Arcade, including burger concept Manna; South American chicken and steak grill concept Solis; East Coast pizza concept Gracey’s; Northern Indian concept Hero; and Luke Farrell’s Southern Thai concept Plaza Khao Gaeng.
The venue will also be home to two as yet unnamed new concepts: a chef-led Greek-Cypriot taverna and a new Mexican taqueria.
Completing the line-up will be several bars and Studio Coffee, Arcade’s first-ever coffee concept.
“The opening of Arcade Covent Garden is a defining moment for our brand. This isn’t just our third location - it’s a milestone in showcasing the full potential of what Arcade can be,” says Arcade marketing director Simon Allison.
“Covent Garden, with its rich mix of history and modernity, feels like the perfect setting for this next chapter. Expect bold new food brands, immersive design, and an elevated guest experience that reflects the spirit of this iconic area.”
