Working with owners Rose Gray, Lady Ruth Rogers, Lord Richard Rogers and the appointed project team, the scheme sort to revitalise and enlarge this internationally renowned and multiple award-winning restaurant.
Within an ambitious timeframe an extended dining space, open-plan kitchen, private dining space, staff facilities and customer washrooms were provided. The existing interior was given a new lease of life and the new facilities seamlessly integrated to retain the ambience of the River Café dining experience.
“Westgreen drove the programme, responding to the various challenges with proactive solutions by sourcing key skills and resources within tight time frames. The sophistication of this approach to the project crucially enabled the restaurant to open ahead of time.”
