Napa in Street Lane closed on October 3 before it was transformed into a Banyan Bar and Kitchen. The venue now includes an indoor and outdoor dining area which can accommodate 200 people between 10am and midnight.

And Kobe in Horsforth, which is also owned by Arc Inspirations, is due to  become a Banyan site on November 18.

Owner Martin Wolstencroft said: “It was a no brainer to transform our Napa and Kobe sites into the stylish, genuine and beautiful Banyan to give customers a sophisticated setting, no matter the occasion – whether it’s catch ups over cocktails, a leisurely lunch, delicious dinner, or an upbeat evening out with friends.”

A Banyan Bar and Kitchen recently opened up in Leeds’s City Square.
