Benugo Bar & Kitchen opens at Warwick Arts Centre next week


Benugo Bar & Kitchen will open at Coventry's Warwick Arts Centre, the largest arts centre outside of London, on Monday 7 March 2022. The highly popular venue has recently undergone the largest transformation in its 48-year history.

Warwick Arts Centre has been at the forefront of cultural life in the region since 1974, hosting an ongoing programme of world-class dance, theatre, stand-up comedy, film, spoken word, festivals, visual art, and more.

Ben Warner, Benugo Founder, said, “We can’t wait to open our new Benugo Bar & Kitchen and bring our impeccably sourced, delicious food, carbon neutral coffee, wide range of cold-pressed juices and local beers to a new audience.

“We’re delighted to be working in partnership with the prestigious Warwick Arts Centre and look forward to welcoming our new friends to this beautiful space from March 7.”

Warwick Arts Centre Director, Doreen Forster, added, “We're so looking forward to welcoming Benugo Bar & Kitchen into Warwick Arts Centre - it's the perfect place to enjoy a meal before, or after, a performance, as well as being a destination in itself; perfect for meeting up with friends or family.

“With our amazing new cinemas, and superb reconfigured gallery spaces now open, the arrival of Benugo Bar & Kitchen completes our transformation.”

Situated in the building’s new foyer, the stunning Benugo Bar & Kitchen will open daily from 9am-11pm.

The new eatery will be serving carbon neutral coffee and pastries alongside Vegan Overnight Oats and French Toast; Freshly made pizzas will be served straight from the pizza oven, alongside Harissa & Chilli Pulled Lamb Shoulder, Cucumber Sambal and Tzatziki on Flat Bread; and Fregola, Rocket, Tomato Salad and Roasted Lemon.

A selection of desserts will include Basque Cheesecake and Blood Orange Compote, with a special children's menu available at weekends.

Benugo will also run the theatre bar, which will be well stocked with a wide range of classic drinks and specialities.
