Description

BCP Council ("The Council") are looking to populate the site of the former Bistro on the Beach restaurant with a stylish beach restaurant to serve both residents and visitors to the area. This will be a temporary offer designed to connect the demolition of the existing building with the delivery of a new, modern development, incorporating not only a new restaurant facility, but also luxury beach lodges.

Situated between Southbourne and Hengistbury Head, Bistro on the Beach (BH6 4BE), has traded successfully for the past 15 years, proving to be a popular restaurant for both residents and visitors alike. It finally closed its doors in October 2021 to enable the site to be redeveloped

Following demolition of the existing building (scheduled to commence in February 2022) the supplier will be provided with a clean slab upon which to site the restaurant offer. The slab will be constructed of a levelled concrete screed with hoarding attached for edge protection. The Council will erect temporary public toilets and a bin store at the eastern edge of the slab, adjacent to the existing beach huts

The Council is seeking bids from suppliers with a proven track record in the hospitality service area to create a modern beach pop up restaurant to animate the beach and create a place to meet, work, eat, drink, have fun, be inspired and ultimately enjoy the view at Southbourne Beach.

The supplier will gain access to the site to commence their build from Monday 23 May 2022. Should the site become available earlier, this will be communicated to the supplier. The first date for trading will be Saturday 28 May 2022. The last day of trading will be Sunday 1 October 2023. The supplier is expected to provide a scaled back operation over the winter months.
