The Evening Standard has published details of the restaurants and non-matchday entertainment that will make up Fulham Pier when it opens next summer.
The Standard says the seven-storey development that accompanies the new Riverside Stand will include a Riverside Market on the ground floor made up of Tinie Tempah’s chicken brand Raps, a curry house ran by Goila Butter Chicken, Base Face pizza – a Neapolitan chain created by Fulham fan Tim Thornton and a burger restaurant called Fat Pickle. The Orange Box venue will host live podcast recordings and comedy sessions.
The upper floors will contain another restaurant and brasserie, with meetings and events areas above, as well as a boutique hotel and health spa with the members’ club – complete with roof terrace – on the top floor.
Fulham chairman Shahid Khan is quoted as saying:
“There is no other riverside setting like this in London. The entire destination will fulfil our vision to optimise the expansive views of the riverfront while introducing an iconic promenade, all delivering a waterfront experience across every floor.
As the first stadium transformation of its kind in Europe, we can’t wait to share the new space with our community and visitors from across London and throughout the world, certainly when Fulham is playing but also every day of every year.
I am looking forward to seeing the destination come to life within the year ahead with friends, families and people of all ages able to find something to enjoy at Fulham Pier.”
