The VIP launch of itsu Brighton

Itsu Brighton Launch
On Tuesday 9 September, itsu Brighton drew more than 150 press and VIPs to celebrate its special pre-opening launch party, at its brand new shop on North Street.

Guests were able to enjoy a sneak preview of the stylishly designed 112-seat itsu shop, which officially opened on Wednesday 10 September, whilst enjoying champagne and delicious low-carb, low-calorie dishes from the itsu menu.

Julian Metcalfe, entrepreneur and founder of itsu and Pret a Manger, was in attendance, with other well-known faces from the arts and entertainment world including broadcaster Simon Fanshawe, Brighton Festival MD Julian Caddy, Juice FM’s Guy Lloyd, food writer and chef Anjali Pathak, Brighton Fashion Week’s Lizzy Bishop and local artist Julie Ann Gilbert.

With 50 itsu shops across London and two flagship restaurants in Chelsea and Notting Hill, moving to Brighton represents an exciting step forward for the brand, which plans to open further regional sites next year in locations including Cambridge, Bristol and Stansted.
