Signs have gone up for two new restaurants set to open at the new Bishop Auckland retail park.

Visitors to the new retail park will soon be able to find Lebanese restaurant The Bake One and Italian Little Sicily.

They become the latest tenants to get the keys to units at the leisure complex which opened this Spring.

Signage for The Bake Bishop describes the eatery as a Lebanese grill house and coffee bar, offering hot mezza and shawarma.

It will be the Newcastle-based brand’s third location with two sites currently in Gosforth and Eldon Square.

Meanwhile, Sedgefield restaurant Little Sicily is expanding into its second venue with the new venue.

Posting to Facebook last month bosses confirmed it would be opening in “late summer”.

They added: “Expect everything you love from us here: great food, electric atmosphere, new cocktails, family-friendly, lunchtime specials, and much more.”

It comes after a host of other retailers moved in at the new retail park including fellow outlets Popeyes and Greggs.

TUI, Home Bargains, The Range and Pure Gym have also all opened there in the last few months.

Meanwhile, Reel Cinemas and Super Bowl UK have also signed contracts to open there.
