Investor James Bicknell and has teaM have aspirations to bring AA three-rosette quality food to West Street having taken over The Wheatsheaf.
Work on converting the traditional pub into a high-end restaurant and bar is due to begin this week with fitting and decoration expected to take just over a fortnight.
They are hoping to begin with a bang with November 5 being circled on the calendar for a potential soft launch.
A welcoming hand has been extended to former patrons as the new owners have promised not to neglect the pub’s roots as the bar will remain open and stocked with Shepherd Neame classics.
The team have a combined experience of “hundreds of years” in the trade while some working alongside the likes of Marco Pierre-White and other Michelin star chefs.
