    June 9, 2017June 9, 2017 HardensBytes

    The Ivy’s national takeover continues apace with its first Scottish site opening in Edinburgh this autumn. Caprice Holding’s bankable brand has snowballed in recent years with a string of Ivy Cafés launching across London, as well as the Ivy Chelsea Garden, Ivy Market Grill, Ivy Kensington Brasserie and the Ivy City Garden.

    December 15, 2015December 16, 2015 HardensBytes

    After launching the Ivy Market Grill in 2014 and the Ivy Chelsea Garden earlier this year, Richard Caring has further expanded his most bankable brand.

    May 13, 2015May 13, 2015 HardensBytes

    It seems that this summer outside is the place to be.

    Caprice Holdings launch The Ivy Chelsea Garden
    March 31, 2015March 31, 2015 HardensBytes

    Many of our reporters feel that it’s time for “a complete overhaul” at old Theatreland favourite, The Ivy.
