The restaurant sector has also seen a fair share of action and evolution, with a flow of corporate deals involving many of the high street brands; Côte, Las Iguanas, La Tasca and CAU to name a few. This area of the market continues to be under the watchful eye of private equity funds, supported by strong trading results, increasing brand confidence, brand awareness and brand loyalty. The sector also demonstrates a seemingly endless ability to develop new brands and secure expansion opportunities.

Due to a heavy excess of demand over supply and eye watering London pricing, transactional activity has concentrated on the regions. Whilst a reflection of the rejuvenating private market and individual asset sales, along with the continued expansion of the established and emerging brands through new development, it is predominantly a result of a handful of very significant group deals.
