The restaurants occupy separate but connected spaces, sharing an all-new kitchen. Other additions include an expansive four-season room built onto the existing building, providing protected outdoor seating for around 40 guests. Serving up to 165 guests, the restaurants have hired around 40 experienced bar and restaurant staff.
“Our goal has always been to create a destination that offers a unique dining and drinking experience, and become known and loved for our vibrant atmosphere and fun approach to food and drinks,” said Steven Simon and Scot Pelc, partners at Sidecar Restaurant Group. “We are thrilled to be opening our newest location in this phenomenal location in the historic Markham Building and we look forward to becoming a part of the Plymouth community.”
