Brayford Marina gets a touch of the mediterranean

Bar Med have announced that they will be taking space alongside Odeon on Lincoln's £10.5 million waterside development at Brayford Pool.

The SFI group, which runs the theme bar, is the first operator to commit to a handful of units which form part of the nine screen cinema development.

The managers hope to be open in October. SFI Director of Property, Eddy Lumsden, is enthusiastic about the group's investment in Lincoln.

"We are pleased to have secured a presence in this attractive location and look forward to a successful future in Lincoln".

Simons Estates Director, Luke Pickering, said "We are delighted at the way in which the cinema development is going."

"Lincoln's leisure market is currently experiencing rapid growth and Brayford Wharf is ideally located to maximise this trend."

"The scheme is located in the heart of the business and academic quarter with 15,000 students in the area, 5,000 of whom are located at the University directly opposite."

Stephen Bradford of letting agents Hodgson Elkington said "The Brayford Wharf waterfront scheme is extremely well anchored by the cinema and Bar Med and is critical to the future of the marina."

"SFI is a quality national operator. I am sure the development, which underlines confidence in Lincoln, will bring benefits to local people".

"We hope to announce further developments in the near future."
