Lakeside Shopping Centre, part of SGS Group, is strengthening its food and beverage offering with the arrival of four new restaurant brands. Wingstop, Chipotle, Amorino, and Wendy’s will soon be added to the centre’s diverse dining selection, which already features over 50 brands.
Wingstop, one of the UK’s fastest-growing food retailers, will introduce its signature flavours and freshly cooked wings to the centre. Meanwhile, Chipotle Mexican Grill will offer its well-known customisable burritos, bowls, quesadillas, tacos, and salads. Joining them is American burger chain Wendy’s, bringing its signature menu to Essex. For dessert lovers, Amorino, known for its indulgent treats, will serve freshly made waffles, crêpes, and gelato.

Rob Jewell, Managing Director, Asset Management at Pradera Lateral, commented:
“Our vision at Lakeside is to continually evolve the food and beverage experience, ensuring we provide a vibrant mix of renowned brands that meet the needs of all our visitors. The additions of these new operators will strengthen the centre’s appeal through both grab-and-go and sit-down options, ensuring that there really is something for every visitor, at any time of day.”
Lakeside already boasts a wide variety of dining choices, from the luxurious Harrods Champagne Bar to sweet treats at Love Churros and the lively restaurant scene on The Boardwalk. The addition of Wingstop, Chipotle, Wendy’s, and Amorino further reinforces the centre’s position as a leading retail, leisure, and dining hub in Essex.
With a leasing strategy focused on attracting globally recognised brands, Lakeside continues to prioritise variety and excitement for its 17 million annual visitors. Further brand announcements are expected in the coming months as the centre continues its commitment to delivering an exceptional customer experience.
