A trendy bar and restaurant chain started by three friends from Bristol is due to open its latest offering in Tewkesbury.

Loungers, started by long standing friends, Dave Reid, Alex Reilley and Jake Bishop, in 2002, already has a restaurant and bar at Gloucester Quays under the Portivo brand.

It also runs the Curio Lounge in Stroud and Cheltenham's Cosy Club in The Brewery Quarter and five others in its home city.

Loungers is yet to officially unveil its latest Gloucestershire arrival, apart from a discreet mention on its website if you search hard enough, but it has started advertising on Facebook to fill key roles.

Posts headed "We are hiring" advertise roles for an assistant manager, general manager and kitchen porter, all appeared in the last few days.

The restaurant, called Rosado Lounge, is due to open in the former Prezzo premises at 103-on on Wednesday, October 10, at 103-105 Church Street, Tewkesbury.
